Save One Group/Updates

As I mentioned several months ago, I was asked to be a silent observer for the Spring Save One group at Choices. It kept getting rescheduled, but God had a plan. Had it not been rescheduled, there would not have been time for my car to get fixed and I would not have been able to go. And the two wonderful women in this group would not have been brought together and helped each other so much.

I spent 1 entire weekend and 6 Thursday nights with 4 amazing women, 2 leaders, and 2 group members. They have all brought so much change to my life. Each one is so unique. I cannot post anything about their individual circumstances, but I can say that they both made some huge strides in their healing, really life changing events happened, and I feel SOOO Blessed that I got to witness that!

The study was great and their Memorials to the Unborn Babies were Beautiful and VERY personal.

How I wish I could write more details about the circumstances and the Beauty that came out if it.

Those of you who are reading, Please continue to pray for the women in each group. It is a tough process, but the end result is worth it.

Update: At the Center we are currently working on getting things together for a visit to a State College. And also our Annual Banquet.

K and I have discussed dates and ways to get the word out for our Recovery Bible Study Group. So far we have decided local TV channels, radio stations, news paper ads, flyers at church, and speaking at some churches. I trust however that the right people will be called at the right time that they will come.

As for the Banquet, my part is just my speech. So I am focused on that. I posted it in a previous post. I am pretty nervous because my job as a speaker there is to convince these people that Life is as Precious as it is. And that women need Support during their pregnancy so that they will make the decision to keep their Baby or Healing if the have already chose abortion. My Husband is coming also, with a PURPLE tie to support the Center and Remember Lucy*. He has heard me speak and he knows OUR story, but it still makes me a little more self conscious with him there. I Embrace his Loving Support though. He is a great Man... September 9th is the day.

Dandelion Pictures With Samantha

I have the sweetest friend. I know I keep saying it, but she is one of the few friends I have who actually seems to understand why I Miss Lucy. She is the one who suggested I start buying Dandelion jewelry. I saw a picture of her daughter blowing a Dandelion on Facebook. And the picture was so well taken, so I asked her to take one. She took several and these are my favorites.  Thank you, again, Christina. :)

This is my VERY favorite. Everything in it means something. The Dandelion. The necklace Samantha is wearing is also Dandelions. And the bracelet I have on is the bracelet my friend, Hannah, requested from Eden's Wings for me. The picture just sums it up for me. This one will be displayed in my living room.

Lucy's Memorial Plaque

Dandelion Lucy

There are so many reasons I chose dandelions to represent my Lucy. First and foremost, if I had one WISH, I would wish for My Dear Lucy.

Second, Dandelions represent this child-like quality. The epitome of pure innocence. A child, running through the back yard on a warm Spring day, picking one up and blowing on it, trying to see if they can get all the seeds off so their wish will come true. Lucy was innocent. A child. A child who should have been running through fields picking up Dandelions with her big sister, but instead she runs the fields of Heaven. And I can picture her doing that. Running through those Heavenly fields full of Beautiful Golden Dandelions.

Lastly, children view Dandelions as flowers. But adults, we tend to view Dandelions as weeds. They are a problem. They are not pretty. They need to be removed. And although we did not view Lucy with such harsh eyes, we felt we were facing a problem that we had to take care of. Now that it is over, unfortunately too late, I view her through the eyes of a child, the most accurate way of seeing her. Her life was/is Beautiful, just like the Dandelion Flower.

Now when I look in my back yard and see it filled with Dandelion Flowers, I think of how Lucy is always looking over me. She is not so far away. And I will one day, see her and hold her again.

Here are some images I have found on Google, but I would like to do a photoshoot of Dandelions this Spring so I can have more meaningful pictures around the house.

Planned Parenthood's Hidden Agenda Exposed

I get a newsletter from from the Human Life Alliance every month or so, and one of the most recent newsletters I got was called "The Truth About Planned Parenthood."  This newsletter is unbelievable! I can't believe some of the things I read in here, especially page 10 where it talks about population control ideas mentioned in the past, because of most of those have actually taken place! Ideal family size has shrunk, homosexuality has increased, encouraging women to work, and I wouldn't doubt the fertility control agents in the water. I know too many people, myself included, who are having problems having more children. Coincidence? Maybe. But I doubt it. Makes you wonder what else we have been "tricked" into over generations. So sad. (I know they are not referring to PP directly in this portion of the article, but they are partially to blame for enforcing "population control."

Here is the publication: http://www.humanlife.org/Planned-Parenthood.php

I also like to keep up with the pro-life arena using this site: lifenews.com Here is one of the articles I read this afternoon. I have heard a lot about Girl Scouts being involved with PP, but I just couldn't wrap my head around it. :( My daughter will not ever be in the Girls Scouts. That is too bad.

CNN iReport

A friend of mine, Hannah,  posted earlier this week about CNN accepting testimonies from people who have had abortions. She also shared her story.

The deadline for that is tomorrow, but since I currently really don't have any followers who would be interested in that sort of thing, I just wanted to post the link to mine for my records. For those of you who follow any of my other blogs, you know how I am about "records."

Good Night, All. :)

MORE Save One Training

Today I received a call from Sue, the lady who led my Save One post abortive study last Fall. She asked me if I wanted to be a silent observer for their new group starting next week! I told her of course! I think it will really help to get training in for our group!

As a silent observer, my job will be to-observe. I will take notes during the study and then when I get home I will write it all down on a formal paper that goes in their file. Although I will be the "silent observer," I will still be allowed to talk from time to time. I know I will be asked to share my story with the group. I will be there for support and if anybody needs anything. And if one of the leaders is absent, I may be asked to help. Or pray from time to time. Stuff like that. So I can get in some practice too! Between K and I, we will be super experienced by time we start. We already had a day training, went through the class, and went through and studied the leader's binder. Now I will be observing, on the other end of the class. And as I do that, K and I will be working together to figure out how we will do the group together. It is looking more like Fall is when we will be starting, or maybe late April, but probably Fall. At least we will have a good grasp on what we are doing and possibly may be more effective that way.

I am so excited! I feel so Blessed to be able to work with AAA-again! Everybody there has been such a huge help to us!
