Help save babies' lives!

Will you sign a Petition to your U.S. Senators and Representative to help save babies' lives? And may I send you the two gifts I'm holding in your name? These gifts are sure to enrich your spiritual life!
	Dear Friend and Pro-Life Catholic, If you can do only one thing today to help save preborn babies from abortion, make sure you sign the Petition to Block Taxpayer Funding of U.N. Abortionists! I'll personally see to it that your Petitions are delivered to your U.S. Senators and Representative in Washington, D.C. Before I tell you the urgency of signing your Petition to Block Taxpayer Funding of U.N. Abortionists, please let me introduce myself . . . My name is Steve Mosher and I'm President of the Population Research Institute (PRI). Maybe you've read about PRI's one-of-a-kind baby-saving work in our weekly updates on Catholic Online. (You can find us on the homepage, just below the fold on the right-hand side). Or maybe you've seen us in the National Catholic Register, Our Sunday Visitor, The Wanderer and other faithful Catholic publications. Or maybe you've seen the pro-life documentary programs we've produced for EWTN. Plus, we're honored that Omaha Archbishop Elden Curtiss hails the Population Research Institute as ". . . one of the most important and effective pro-life, pro-family organization in the U.S. – and perhaps even in the world!" But more about the unique baby-saving work of PRI in just a minute. Let me now tell you about the . . . Urgency of signing your Petitions Your Petition to Block Taxpayer Funding of U.N. Abortionists calls on your U.S. Senators and Representative to continue the total freeze on U.S. financial support of abortionists at the U.N. Population Fund (UNFPA). UNFPA has a decades-long history of inflicting abortion, contraception and sterilization on innocent people around the world. These U.N. abortionists aggressively attack poor people in the largely Catholic nations of Latin America. The U.N. Population Fund uses bribes – offers of "free" financial aid and "free" education – to get poor Hispanic women to "agree" to contraception, abortion and sterilization. When bribes fail, U.N. abortionists then threaten impoverished women, forcing them to "agree" to these population control nightmares. UNFPA's cruel threats include withholding financial aid, education and even desperately-needed medical care from the poorest of the poor in Latin America. But that's not all! On top of those horrors in Latin America, UNFPA also works hand-in-hand with the Red Chinese to brutally enforce China's wicked "one-child-per-family" policy. Forced sterilization and forced abortion are the UNFPA's weapons of choice in Red China. As you know, it's illegal to use U.S. taxpayer funds to bankroll these population control horrors. And thanks to research provided to Congressional pro-lifers by PRI, Congress has frozen all U.S. support of U.N. abortionists for seven years running! But now, with a good chance that pro-abortion Barack Obama might be elected president, pro-abortionists in Congress are eagerly mapping plans to restore U.S. funding of U.N. abortionists. Their goal is to give the U.N. Population Fund an astounding $60 million in U.S. funding every year! Your Petition – signed now – can help de-rail those plans and save babies from UNFPA abortion attacks! Revealed: How PRI beats the U.N. abortionists As I mentioned, it's illegal to use U.S. funds for abortion. But for years, pro-lifers in Congress were powerless to enforce that law because they had no solid proof that the U.N. was up to its eyeballs in killing preborn babies. So PRI sent specially-trained investigators to dozens of countries in Latin America, Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa. We proved that the U.N. Population Fund was illegally bankrolling vast numbers of abortions with our tax dollars . . . . . . we interviewed women victimized by U.N. abortionists. We recorded dates, times and places. We got the names of some of the "abortion providers." Then we brought some of the victims to Washington, D.C. where they personally told their stories of U.N. abortion abuse to horrified pro-life Members of Congress. Armed with this PRI research, Congressional pro-lifers swiftly shut down U.S. funding of the U.N. Population Fund! In fact, U.N. and other abortion groups have been frozen out of a whopping $790 million of taxpayer funding, thanks to the research PRI has given to pro-lifers in Congress! But every year, pro-abortionists in Washington wage a fierce struggle to reopen the U.S. treasury to U.N. abortionists. And every year, we have to beat them again. That's why your Petition to Block Taxpayer Funding of U. N. Abortionists is so crucial – especially now, with the prospect of pro-abortion Barack Obama occupying the White House! PRI also inflicts MAJOR damage on Planned Parenthood Handing blistering defeats to U.N. abortionists isn't all that PRI does to save as many babies as we do. Take a look at some of the other major defeats we've given the abortionists . . . When pro-life Members of Congress needed proof that Planned Parenthood was illegally tapping the U.S. treasury to pay for wholesale abortion, Congressional pro-lifers turned to PRI for the facts they needed – and then Congress stripped Planned Parenthood of $195 million in U.S. funding! Congressman Chris Smith, the heroic legislator who led that enormously successful fight against Planned Parenthood, proclaimed that . . . "Pro-lifers in Congress could not have handed such a crushing defeat to Planned Parenthood without the research provided by Steve Mosher and the Population Research Institute!" Just recently, when pro-abortionists fought furiously to scrap America's pro-life Mexico City Policy – a move that would have opened the floodgates to U.S.-funded abortion around the world – PRI helped Congressional pro-lifers bury that abortion drive. But that's not all! There's still much more to PRI's baby-saving work . . . We regularly produce powerful pro-life "mini documentaries" and post them on the Internet where they can be seen by millions of people around the world . . . . . . PRI's Internet videos are so amazingly strong – and so feared by pro-abortionists - that one of our most recent Latin American productions was actually yanked off the Internet by YouTube, the video website visited by millions of people every day! (Intense pressure by pro-lifers forced YouTube to reinstate that explosive PRI "mini-documentary.") PRI is sounding the alarm and mobilizing pro-lifers against Planned Parenthood's new, all-out attack on America's tiniest minority – Alaska's Eskimos. PRI is leading the educational fight against Planned Parenthood's massive abortion assaults on America's blacks and Hispanics. PRI representatives are often heard on Catholic, Protestant and secular TV and radio programs. (Just recently, for example, I was interviewed on Dr. James Dobson's "Focus on the Family" program.) PRI publishes authoritative bi-monthly print and weekly e-mail newsletters with news, facts and analysis you can't find anywhere else. (These "must read" newsletters are sent FREE to PRI supporters.) And of course PRI representatives are "regulars" on Capitol Hill, where we frequently brief pro-life legislators on upcoming abortion battles. And now we need your help – URGENTLY! To expand and WIN this crucial battle against the U.N. abortionists, PRI urgently needs funds to pay for these six projects . . . We must circulate many tens of thousands more of our Petition to Block Taxpayer Funding of U.N. Abortionists. It's essential that all 100 U.S. Senators and all 435 U.S. Representatives hear from their constituents and understand that we will NOT tolerate renewed U.S. funding of the U.N. Population Fund abortionists! PRI must immediately produce a dozen or more "mini-documentaries" exposing the U.N. abortionists, and then we must post these explosive videos on the Internet for millions to see! It's vital that we launch a nationwide speaking tour aimed at Church groups, lay organizations, clergy, educators and others who can influence public opinion and mobilize pro-lifers in this fight against the U.N. Population Fund! Church Leaders Enthusiastically Support PRI ". . . one of the most important and effective pro-life, pro-family organizations in the U.S. – and perhaps even in the world!" -- Archbishop Elden Curtiss "Those of us who defend the sanctity of human life are truly blessed to have PRI leading the battle to defend the unborn and the family." -- Cardinal Alfonso Lopez Trujillo "I ask you to join me in praying . . . for the continued success of PRI's absolutely crucial work in making the world a safer place for babies . . ." -- Archbishop Oscar H. Lipscomb "Please support this group (PRI) with your prayers, each and every day, to save our future – the generation of children that abortion advocates wish to destroy." -- Bishop Fabien W. Bruskewitz "Thank God for the Population Research Institute!" -- Father John Hardon We must also send PRI representatives around the country to appear on radio and TV talk shows – Catholic, Protestant and secular! When paid newspaper and magazine advertising is required, it's essential that we have the money needed to buy that advertising! And of course, we must continue sending PRI investigators around the world to prove that the U.N. Population Fund is still killing a huge number of babies, and that any funds they receive from the U.S. government will be illegally used to kill even more babies! All of these educational and mobilization programs will cost an estimated $50,000 – and we must have your help to raise it! Please look over these suggested gift amounts and give the very largest you can possibly afford (your gift is tax-deductible) . . . $30 $35 $40 $50 $75 $100 $250 $500 $1,000 In this battle to save babies' lives from the U.N. abortionists, no gift is too small and no gift can be too large. And please keep this in mind when you decide on the amount of your tax-deductible gift: Unlike the big abortion groups which receive vast financial support from huge corporations and wealthy foundations, PRI's baby-saving work depend entirely on dear friends like you who make sacrificial gifts to help save babies' lives!

Donate Now And now let me tell you about the two spiritual thank-you gifts I have for you . . . This thank-you gift will help you pray! Like me and probably most other prayerful Catholics, do you sometimes worry about how you pray? Do you wonder if you're praying the "right way" or the "wrong way" . . . whether your prayers are too short or too long . . . whether they're too "ritualistic" . . . or if there's a way to pray that would be more pleasing to God? Worse, do you ever worry that some of your prayers might not be heard by God because you're not praying the way He wants you to? Well, Time For God: A Guide to Prayer, by Fr. Jacques Philippe, answers all those important questions – and many others, too! (Fr. Philippe, the author of this essential prayer guide, is based in Rome and his specialty is preaching at retreats throughout the world. Father is the author of numerous other books as well.) In his marvelous prayer guide, Fr. Philippe tells you . . . The single criterion to use in judging the quality of your prayers How to make absolutely, positively sure that your prayers never become so ritualistic that they deprive you of spiritual benefits The 5 attitudes you must have in your approach to prayer The 4 principles you must never forget when you pray Plus so much more that will answer your questions, doubts and worries about how to pray! Time For God: A Guide to Prayer is one of the most valuable spiritual guides I've ever come across. It's not "heavy" reading, but it's certainly valuable reading! May I send you a copy of Time For God: A Guide to Prayer with my thanks for your baby-saving gift of $35 or more? Or would you rather receive this spiritual gift instead? There are so many wonderful things to say about the second gift I have for you that I'm really not sure where to begin, but let me try . . . Your second gift is the collector's edition of Words of Light: Inspiration From the Letters of Padre Pio. Many books have been written about Padre Pio, but this book was written BY St. Pio, so it will give you a profoundly intimate look at this beloved saint's life, his often-frightening experiences, his private thoughts and his personal prayers, including . . . The "dark night" of Padre Pio's soul – the tormenting doubts of faith that haunted him – as revealed in letters from St. Pio to his spiritual advisor Satan's horrifying spiritual and physical attacks on Padre Pio – the agony Padre Pio suffered at the hands of the Evil One, in St. Pio's own words Padre Pio's beautiful and personal prayer to Mary (Hint: It's a 22-word prayer you'll memorize and say every day of your life – I guarantee it!) St. Pio's teaching and wise counsel on successfully meeting the everyday challenges of our faith Plus so much more that's never before been revealed about Padre Pio – all in his own words! But there's still more you should know about Words of Light: Inspiration From the Letters of Padre Pio . . . This is the very first time that this collection of Padre Pio's letters has ever been published in English! This rare collection of Padre Pio's private letters was personally compiled by Franciscan Capuchin Father Raneiro Cantalamessa, the Preacher to the Papal Household appointed by Pope John Paul II Your copy of Words of Light: Inspiration From the Letters of Padre Pio is the hardbound edition – so it's very sturdy and can be shared with many friends and family members who are sure to spiritually benefit from Padre Pio's letters just as much as you will! May I send you a copy with my very sincere thanks for your baby-saving gift of $50 or more? Let me send you BOTH gifts! Choosing between these two important spiritual gifts is a tough choice, so may I send you BOTH Time For God: A Guide to Prayer AND Words of Light: Inspiration From the Letters of Padre Pio? Sending you both of these wonderful gifts is my way of saying, "Thank you for helping us save babies' lives!" with your much-needed gift of $75 or more. If we don't fight this fight, then who will? As I said, only PRI provides the kind of research that give Congressional pro-lifers the ammunition they need to keep the U.N. abortionists out of the U.S. treasury. And if PRI doesn't have the funds to carry on this absolutely crucial baby-saving work, then U.N. abortionists could once again get a "green light" on looting the U.S. treasury. So please – sign the Petition to Block Taxpayer Funding of U.N. Abortionists today, along with the most generous tax-deductible gift possible! Yours in Christ, for the protection of His little ones, Steven W. Mosher President Population Research Institute P.S. When you sign your Petitions for delivery to your U.S. Senators and Representative, be sure to tell me which – or both – of these important spiritual gifts you’d like to receive as our way of saying thank you for your donation. Both gifts are pictured in this letter. And please be as generous as you possibly can to support our one-of-a-kind baby-saving work. We literally depend on Catholic pro-life friends like you!
PRI is a 501(c)(3) educational organization, which works with a growing, global network of pro-life groups in over 30 countries, to stop the spread of abortion and to roll back population control programs, as well as to educate young people and married couples on the blessings of chastity and childbearing. PRI has successfully reduced or eliminated over $790 million of funding for radical population control groups and organizations that wrongly seek to eliminate poverty, illiteracy and pollution by eliminating children. All donations are both appreciated and tax-deductible.
