For Immediate Release

ROCKY RIVER – Fred Sokol, Chair – Stop Abortion in Rocky River Committee says, “Rocky River is rich in one thing.  Rocky River has a treasure of pro-lifers who ‘in two unrelated pro-life events’ one on Tuesday May 4, 2010 and the other on Thursday May 6, 2010 publicly stood for life in Rocky River, Ohio this past week.

 

1. Tuesday May 4, 2010: Pro-Lifers, publicly stood in Rocky River, Ohio with Jesus in front of Rocky River Health Center [Planned Parenthood] abortion mill and gate of hell – that’s located at 20800 Center Ridge Road that offers ... “Abortion pill (medication abortion) … up to 9 weeks after the start of your last menstrual period.”  Thank You, fellow pro-lifers.

2. Thursday May 6, 2010: Lutheran High School West [located in Rocky River, Ohio] whose students, faculty and administration [collectively as a High School] publicly showed support for the life of the unborn baby.  They also showed support for those who are ‘the victims’ of the culture of death as well.  Thank You Lutheran High School West.

[1.] PRO-LIFERS WHO PUBLICLY STAND IN FRONT OF ROCKY RIVER HEALTH CENTER [PLANNED PARENTHOOD] TUESDAY, MAY 4, 2010.

Says Sokol, “On Tuesday Evening, May 04, 2010 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm everything was exceptional.  The sky was clear the sun bright. While eighteen [18] pro-lifers [which included two children hidden behind their parents and one held in their mother’s arms] with Jesus as nineteen [19], stood in front of Rocky River Health Center [Planned Parenthood]. While two [2] pro-lifers [I was one of them] stood across the street displaying graphic abortion signs to the motorists on Center Ridge Road.  Surely, these pro-lifers are the treasure of the Rocky River pro-life movement.

As I carry either a camera or a flip-vid to record any pro-aborts that either assault us pro-lifers verbally or physically.  [This last Saturday, May 8, 2010 a pro-abort parked in a business in Fairview Park, Ohio behind us and got out of his car and threatened “to get us” for displaying graphic abortion signs.  Of course, we did not respond to him.  Yet I was ready to photograph him.]   Yet on Tuesday evening May 4, 2010, I decided that because of the grand crowd of pro-lifers gathered, I took their group photo on the public sidewalk.  

 

These peaceful, brave and committed pro-lifers [shown are only a fraction of all of them] come from Cuyahoga, Lorain, and Medina Counties and of course from Rocky River, Ohio. 

Some pro-lifers suffer from excruciating physical maladies, cancer, diabetes, spine, knee, foot ailments and heart problems.  Some leave their families at home, some bring their families with them, some come straight from work, some are unemployed and some will not eat their supper until they go home from prayer that night. 

 

They gladly suffer cold, snow, heat, rain, electrical storms, wind and the dark of night.  They patiently endure humiliation from curses, threats, verbal and physical assault and obscene and immoral gestures and comments from pro-aborts.  Why? 

 

They come to pray for Rocky River, for the World and for the unborn baby to be saved from abortion, death and child sacrifice in front of Rocky River Health Center [Planned Parenthood]. 

 

I cannot begin to tell you how blessed I am, to know and to stand with them all for the unborn baby in Rocky River, Ohio.

[2.] LUTHERAN HIGH SCHOOL WEST [ROCKY RIVER, OHIO] STANDS ‘FOR LIFE’ THURSDAY MAY 6, 2010.

The following three [3] pictures [below] show a most dramatic and public pro-life stand in Rocky River, Ohio on Thursday, May 6, 2010 in front of Lutheran High School West.  The High School is located on Linden Road off of Center Ridge Road in Rocky River, Ohio next to Westgate Shopping Center – and about a quarter mile from Rocky River Health Center [Planned Parenthood].   

 

Says Sokol, “I was shaking with sheer joy at what I captured on film.  May you be filled with joy as well, to know that there is this public support for life in Rocky River, Ohio.  All Glory, Laud and Honor to You Oh God the Father, Oh God the Son, Oh God the Holy Spirit, Amen.”

The sign in the picture [above] solemnly stands at attention next to the rows of white crosses in front of Lutheran High School West and reads, “Each cross represents 1700 lives lost through abortion each year in the United States. The crosses also represent God’s boundless grace, love, and forgiveness.  For hope and healing contact www.NorthCoastPHC.org “

Above looking north [and about a quarter mile away from Rocky River Health Center [Planned Parenthood] is shown the total expanse of white crosses in front of Lutheran High School West.  Where each cross represents 1700 unborn babies aborted in America each year.  Oh, Lord Have Mercy On Us.

Above the crosses stand for life yet added to the grim count of all deaths of unborn babies in America every year.  Also behind the white crosses and in contrast, is the name of the school “Lutheran High School West”.   A High School in Rocky River, that publicly took a stand for Life on Thursday, May 6, 2010 and for the victims of the culture of death.  Thank You Lutheran High School West.

 

I also say God Bless all those who represent and support Lutheran High School West, that is located in Rocky River, Ohio.  

FINALLY

I also pray that one day, Lutheran High School West students, faculty and administration pray with us in front of Rocky River Health Center [Planned Parenthood] for the unborn baby, for Rocky River and for the World.  You and everyone else are always welcome to pray with us.  We will never turn you away.  God Bless You All.
