Street Report for July 21, 2009

What an incredible day!! This morning about 80 gentle Christians went to St. Rose Dominican Hospital Siena Campus, a local Catholic hospital, and gave them heaven. The hospital itself is pro-life, but Dr. Gaitlin, who murders little baby boys and girls at the Nevada Women’s Center, has privileges there.

The saints of God stood on two street corners of the hospital with a sound system and shared Jesus with everyone and exposed the truth that Dr. Gaitlin does abortions. We also had some folks go into the hospital and pass out flyers exposing Dr. Gaitlin and asking them to “Adopt an Abortionist” and help us to expose that he delivers babies at this hospital and kills them at the Nevada Women’s Center. We are asking the hospital to not let this doctor have privileges there as long as he is killing babies.

Another team of about 100 gentle Christians went to the Birth Control “Care” Center (Murder Mill). Jeff and Elaina worshipped the Lord through dance right in front of their parking lot, the Hope Monument was placed right at the edge of their parking lot as well. Tom Radell set up his large display exposing the truth about abortion, and Dale Sochia and the Thomas family led us in worship on a sound system that could be heard blocks away! The murder mill called the police and gave them a paper supposedly “signed” by the owner of the property next to the abortion clinic saying they did not want us on their property. Pastor Bill Shanks asked the police officer how we can know for sure that the signature on the paper is actually the signature of the owner of that property. The police officer said he would have to call the owner of the property and ask him. (We found out later that the owner is actually out of the country … did we expect them to be telling the truth??)

Then, the police officer got in his car and moved across the parking lot and we continued to worship the Lord and reach out to the women!! One girl and her boyfriend drove past our signs into the murder mill parking lot, began to weep, and turned back around and left the clinic!! Another girl and her friend went to the Crisis Pregnancy Center to find a pro-life doctor to discuss birth control options. They saw the sign display and were shocked at the reality of abortion! We were able to pray with them and asked for God to bless them for not giving the murder mill their business.

While we were at BCC, the “Medical Waste” truck came to pick up these precious little baby boys and girls who were killed by the hands of this abortionist. We tried to talk to the driver as he smugly flung the “bag” containing the body parts of the babies into his truck. Unfortunately, his heart was hardened to the truth and he would not listen.

Then, after lunch we all went to the Planned Parenthood and what an unbelievable time we had!!! We showed up and the owner of the coffee shop next door said he had been praying for someone to come and thanked us for being there! Planned Parenthood is private property and shares a patio with the coffee shop. The manager set up tables and chairs on the patio for us. Jeff and Elaina worshipped the Lord with their dance right in front of Planned Parenthood!! We were able to surround Planned Parenthood with our signs!!

Three police cars came and did nothing!! I overheard one officer telling the Planned Parenthood “deathscort” that unless they could prove the patio was on their property, there was nothing they could do. We tried to talk to the workers for Planned Parenthood and to the girls going in and out, but their hearts were hardened. Some of the saints were able to pray with the workers and owner of the coffee shop. They prayed for God’s blessings on their business!! When we left there, the Manager of the coffee shop and a worker from the coffee shop both followed us to the Dream Center to go into the neighborhoods with us to pass out free tickets to the movie Maafa 21 (a movie exposing the reality of abortion). Victory!!! Glory!!!

As Flip says, “When the theology of the church becomes biography in the streets, God shows up!!”

(As a follow-up, Planned Parenthood is now boycotting the coffee shop because of how they welcomed us. The devil is not happy but he does NOT have the victory!)
