I Am An American

I am endowed by my Creator
With the inalienable right to life
Just like you, and every other American.
You know who I am.
Now that you can see my face,
Will you use your voice?
Please tell America,
I am an American, too.

America, it’s time to protect your children again.

When the founders of our country declared their independence they proclaimed the self evident truth that all men are created equal and have an unalienable right to life. For the last 37 years our first and most foundational right has been undermined by the legally sanctioned murder of unborn children in our country. The unborn have been dehumanized as “tissue masses,” “cell clusters”…non-persons who therefore have no rights or (very little, at least) protection under the law. That is why a group of us here in MidMO take the time every year on Independence Day to publicly celebrate the sanctity of all human life with a pro-life booth at our downtown July 4 celebration (pictured left) and hopefully help others see the beauty and the goodness of the human person in all stages of development. That’s where I’ll be all day today. How are you celebrating?

Happy 4th of July!
God Bless you all!
