Two Letters From a Grateful Dad

Letter From a Grateful Mom

May 18, 2001

Bubble Zone Enforced Unjustly On Prolifers

When we arrived at the abortuary this morning we were surprised to see numerous police present. There were a total of eight police officers, four police cars, two police bikes and one police motorcycle during the course of the morning. It represented the scene of the crimes of mass murder very well. Only they weren't there for the babies that were being killed today, they were there to see that the prolifers could not persuade Moms to keep their babies alive. This injunction was issued for Stanley Scott years ago, not for us. It seems the pro-aborts convinced the police that this violation of freedom was for us too.

There were 45 prolifers out to pray today. Youth from CHS came with one of their teachers before school and Fr. Markey and Pastor Dave were there to represent the clergy.  There were nine "clinic escorts"

Abortionist Blumenfeld arrives.

including three Wesleyan students. Donald was on video for them and we had Joe N. and Will. I did some videoing myself at the end of the morning. The escorts, especially Patricia, were louder and feistier than ever! Pat drove Abortionist Blumenfeld to the door around 9:30 a.m.

Eleven moms came to abort. Five turned-away. We believe that six babies were left to die.

I surmise the police presence was a major deterrent to some of the clients. The "new rules" limited our time with the moms. It was harder to talk privately to them in the doorway. We had to speak louder than usual so they could hear us over the twenty-eight foot line. We had some women there after the abortions for post abortion counseling and literature distribution. It was hindered because of the "new rules" but some literature was passed out.

Hope to see you all at "the gates" as we continue to stand for righteousness... until the killing stops.

Abortion will end because Jesus is King (1 Tim. 6:15 "For in due season Christ will be revealed from Heaven by the blessed and Almighty God, the King of kings and Lord of lords.")

For His Service,
Marilyn Carroll

We had a good group of women out yesterday to minister to the moms after the abortions until 1 p.m. Five of the moms took literature and some were prayed with. I want to encourage Moms to bring their children out. It makes such an impact for the parents going into the mill to see live children outside. Friday, May 11, we will have a Mother's Heart Prayer Vigil to commemorate Mother's Day next Sunday. Please bring any scriptures or testimonies you would like to share on motherhood. It will start at 7 a.m. and go to 9:30 a.m. "You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit - that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name." John 15:16

There were well over 40 Lifers on the streets today. The CHS youth came to pray before school. We thank God for them and their fine example to others. Fifteen moms came to abort. One couple did not even go in. They pulled up around 8:30 am. The escorts went up to their car but they told them to get away. Carmen was able to talk to them a little later. She shared the info about the abortionists and the center. She gave them newspaper articles and told them about the botched abortion in September. The couple was very surprised to hear all this. After listening they said "let's go!" and changed their minds. PTL! One save and four turn-aways. This calculates to ten dead babies. Shame. Jasmine was going to be around for post abortion counseling.

Twelve "deathscorts" were on duty. Edgar Perez (police officer #1) was at the door of the killing center. Please keep this officer and all the abortion providers on your prayer lists for salvation. Abortionist Shubb came in to do his grizzly work around 9:30 am covering his face with his baseball cap. Donald was on video for them and we had Joe N. and Will for us. There were three clergy to represent the leadership of the church (Fr. Smith, Pastor Miller and Pastor Randy). We see tremendous hypocrisy with church leaders in America. I just heard this message below from Mark Crutcher's Southern Baptist Pastor, Dr. Ray Bandi:

What if you and a friend were looking out your window and saw a young girl (13 years old) walking down the street near an open field? A car pulls up next to her with a bunch of teenage boys. They get out of the car and start pulling her clothes off, beat and hurt her until she is dead. We are looking out the window, two grown healthy adults. The police come looking for witnesses. "Did you see anything?" "Yes, we saw the whole thing." "Why didn't you do anything?" Even though you didn't ask for it, you share in the blame. You are both Christians and you didn't do anything because you did not feel "led" to. You say you were opposed to what happened, but did not feel "led" to get involved, so you just sat back and prayed for the young girl and prayed the young men would have a change of heart and stop. Does that "let you off the hook?"

Jesus commands us we are to be "salt & light". Salt is to stop the moral decay wherever we see it. We are to be involved everywhere, every time, and in every way that we can, with abortion and with any other ethical problem. As extreme as the word picture above sounds it is no different than what goes on with abortion everyday. The response is the same, too, in 99.9% of the Christian churches (not the pro-abort churches). These churches speak the loudest against abortion but do nothing. They are theologically liberal and they are worried about their popularity. Pastors don't want their parishioners to feel uncomfortable. What good is having a church full of people if they are not hearing the full gospel of Christ? Matthew 25 speaks about separating the sheep from the goats. Jesus said in verse 40 - "whatever you do unto the least of these you do to me." Abortion silent pastors are cowards.

Please come and invite others to come every Tuesday and Friday until the killing stops!

Carmen went to visit one of the new moms, Lucy, today to bring her baby food, formula, diapers etc. Lucy told Carmen about the multi-color booties that Carmen had given her the day she left and changed her mind about getting an abortion. Lucy's ten year old daughter later found the booties in her mom's purse and wanted them for her doll. Her mom said "no" and proceeded to tell her daughter and husband that she was pregnant and that those were for their new baby that's coming. They were all so happy and excited. In days past, Lucy was having second thoughts and contemplating the abortion again, but because she had those booties and her husband and daughter already knew, she felt really convicted that she could not do it. PTL!

Today we had an exciting day at the mill. One of the men clients recklessly pulled right up on the sidewalk to drop off his woman in the very doorway of the killing center. There were adults and Brian's little girl praying off to the side of the sidewalk. Police officer Jorge Cintron (#708) ran over to his car and asked him what he thought he was doing! He did not even have a license. He was told by the officer to pull over down the street. He was later hand-cuffed and taken to the police station in a police car. It was overheard that he was charged with "child endangerment" and "assault three". The young man was very rowdy towards the policeman. The "deathscorts" were trying to defend him and saying we provoked him to take that action. I know I did not even go near the car. Carmen just happened to be on that side of the building and spoke with the mom after the car was already up on the sidewalk and the passenger door opened to the entranceway of the mill.

Some of the new moms we are discipling were out on the streets today.

When God commands us in the sixth commandment "Thou shalt not kill" - He means it! "Obedience is far better than sacrifice. He is much more interested in your listening to Him than in your offering the fat of rams to Him. For rebellion is as bad as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as bad as worshipping idols." 1 Samuel 15:22-23 "Men judge by outward appearance, but I (GOD) look at a man's thoughts and intentions." 1 Samuel 16:7b

Tiffany came at 10:30 am to minister to those leaving the death camp after the killing procedures. She was able to minister to five women and gave them literature. She also prayed with three (Terry, Felicia, and Terrana). One of these women was the lady that was standing in the doorway with the orange and black tiger skirt. Escort Betsy tried her best to keep Carmen from speaking to her about the truth. Sad to say, it seems that seventeen precious babies were left to die an excruciating death on 211 Middle Street today.

Hope to see you all back out on the streets next week, Tuesday and Friday... until the killing stops.

If we keep pleading before our God to end this abomination, I know in my heart He hears and He will answer our prayers. "I'm going to see that she gets justice, for she is wearing me out and with her constant coming." Luke 18:5  Persistence pays off. I believe God is just waiting for the heart of His church to be repentive and hate the shedding of innocent blood like He hates it.

All For Him,
Marilyn Carroll

Today we had over thirty prolifers out on the streets. It was a bit chilly compared to yesterday. We had a 40 degree drop in temperature, but we were not as cold as the precious babies that will be ripped out from their mothers' warm wombs. We thank God for the committed youth and staff at CHS that came out to pray today before school. Bryan was there with his guitar leading the group in praises to our Lord. I hope we can get more musicians and singers out to have church on the streets. We need to get Operation Full Court Press up and working again. We know the demons just hate the praises of God's people and they flee! "I beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is good, and acceptable and perfect will of God." Romans 12:1-2

There were eleven "deathscorts" (including four Wescorts) to assist moms in the conspiracy to have their children killed. Carmen, Vinny and I were of the few sidewalk counselors present. Kelly and Will were on video for us and they had Scott on video for them. Seventeen moms went in to abort and I don't know of any that changed their minds. We mourn for these seventeen children that were created in the image of God. I know God had a purpose and plan for every life. I pray that these babies know they were not alone. We were there for them, standing in the gap and pleading for their lives. Lord have mercy on us. "A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within. The essential causes of Rome's decline lay in her people, her morals. her class struggle, her failing trade, her bureaucratic despotism, her stifling taxes, her consuming wars." Will Durant While we are a people of good will, we confuse that with lack of will. I know we don't mean to be ungrateful, but we have become spoiled and lazy in our thankfulness for His great love. The future of America hinges on the effectiveness of our methods and message to bring the truth of the gospel to a lost and dying people.

"Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before the high God? Shall I come before Him with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my first born for my transgressions, the fruit of my body for sin of my soul? He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" Micah 6:6.

We are looking for some uniformed veterans who will participate in a Memorial Day service. You all took an oath to protect your nation, foreign and domestic. This enemy is far more insidious than any enemy overseas. We have an enemy within savaging our children who has killed more than one third of our nation's children in the last 28 years. It's time for men to return to the exposed places and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. "He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse." Malachi 4:6

I hope to see you ALL again on Friday ... at the very gates of hell  .... where all the lost souls end up where they should not be.  Until the killing stops,

NO BABIES KILLED TODAY IN BRIDGEPORT

Over 35 prolifers were out on the streets in front of the Summit abortuary this morning. We are glad no babies were killed today, but sad that they will be open for their grizzly business tomorrow, instead. Please come. Officer Edgar Peres (#1) was there. He did not even know the mill was to be closed. We did get to speak to two clients, so pray that the information they received and the prayers that went up to the Lord will stop these parents and the others from having their children butchered. We had Nancy and Will on video, and Fr. Smith was there to represent the clergy of our local area.

Until the killing stops....

We have Jesus' eternal promise, "I will not leave you....I will come to you" John 14:18. He gives a message of eternal hope and not despair -- of eternal light and not darkness! We need to share this gospel with the lost and needy on the streets.

For the Least of These,

There were over 35 saints out on the streets today to stand for the babies who were sentenced to die the same day our Lord died for

us. Rev. and Mrs. Bulkley were there with the baby casket to commemorate all the innocent babies killed in that death camp on 211 Middle Street, Bridgeport. Today was quite a special day; Dr. Nolan was there to reach

Kelly Vazquez, Bailey Benham, Cori Rowland, and Lori Benham

out to the moms, Flip's daughter-in-law Lori was sidewalk counseling, and Millie came to join our team. "Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD." Isaiah 1:18

I give our Lord and Savior Jesus all the glory for waking up the church in our community to have His heart on the shedding of innocent blood. The people going into the mill have hurting hearts and need help. You and I

(the church) are called to reach out in ministry to them with help that is Christ-centered. "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." 1 Peter 3:15.  Judgment begins in the house of God (1 Peter 4:17). God is calling His church to repent over the shedding of innocent blood.

There were eight deathscorts present including five "Wescorts".

Officer Goulden was on duty for the mill. We had two cop cars present also. We must be doing something right that the killing center needs to call the police? Three clergy (Fr. Markey, Fr. Smith, Rev. Bulkley) were representing the leaders in the local church. Abortionist Blumenfeld went in the back door at 9:40 am. Carmen was able to pray with one of the moms. "We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." 2 Cor. 10:5

Eleven moms came to abort. Three turned away. Two changed their minds. Six precious babies were left to die.

All I can say is that I am so glad "OUR REDEEMER LIVES"!

John 20:9 "For as yet they did not know (understand) the statement of Scripture that He must rise again from the dead." Psalm 16:10 "For You will not abandon me to Sheol (the place of the dead), neither will You suffer Your Holy One to see corruption."

Happy Resurrection Sunday to all!

Love in Christ,

BRIDGEPORT MILL WILL BE OPEN THIS GOOD FRIDAY

Today over 50 Christians lived out their faith on the streets.

We had a large group of students from CHS. Rev. Bulkley, Pastor Miller, and Fr. Smith were all there to represent the local clergy.

The prayer service was for families of aborted babies. There was a baby coffin, which Rev. Bulkley made and a symbolic infant that was consecrated unto the Lord. Father Bill set up an alter and led the prayer and scripture service. Worship songs were lifted unto our Lord as a sweet savor unto His nostrils.

Twelve moms came and one left. There were nine "deathscorts" which included five "Wescorts". There was one woman escort with a white hat that continually pushed and shoved the sidewalk counselors. Nancy got it all on video. Abortionist Shubb entered the death camp at 9:20 a.m. covering his face again with a baseball cap. SHAME! Edgar Perez (#1) was the officer on duty for the mill. There were seven police officers and at least three cop cars blocking off the street in front of the killing center. It was quite a different day.

The schedule at the abortion mill was changed again, probably due to changed appointments from today. We believe the service today caused some to leave and reschedule. Pray that some will not come back. Patients were possibly contacted and changed their appointments to Friday. We know that as of today they are planning to be open this Friday. I am sorry for the mixed messages but there seems to be confusion in the enemy's camp! We can face tomorrow because we know our redeemer lives! (Job 19:25) Please come and be salt and light at the very gates of hell in Bridgeport. We are believing God that one day abortion will be unavailable, illegal, and unthinkable! May God hasten that day!

Your Sister in Christ,
Marilyn Carroll

Fifteen Dead Babies

There were twenty three prolifers on the rainy streets praying early this morning. This includes CHS students and two clergy (Fr. Smith and Pstr. Randy). We were glad to have Dagney back counseling.Most left early for school leaving Carmen, Stan, and myself on the desolate roadway. There were five deathscorts (the older gang, no "Wescorts" today). Edgar Perez (#1) was presiding officer for the mill. Due to the problem we had last Friday, the new overtime sergeant will be coming to observe. Will was on video today for us and the deathscorts did not have a videographer. Twenty moms came to abort. Two of those couples (both Mexican) did not even go in after Carmen spoke with them in Spanish. PTL! Two turned away and three changed their minds. Abortionist Shubb went in at 9:25 a.m. We pleaded with him to stop the killing. "Like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay is the man who gains riches by unjust means. When his life is half gone, they will desert him, and in the end he will prove to be a fool." Jer.17:11

One of the couples, Arthur and Clena, told us they were Catholic. They had pulled into the parking lot around 7:45 a.m. Carmen and Dagney approached their car along with the deathscorts while we were counseling on the other side. Carmen suggested adoption rather than abortion. They said "no way". Clena is sixteen weeks pregnant.  Carmen prayed with them and told them about the abortionists here and about the botched abortion in September. We gave them a video to take home that actually shows an abortion. We also gave them photographs of the baby at sixteen weeks. The mother is showing. This four month baby is about ten inches in length and weighs at least half a pound. This baby's ears function and hears quite a bit. He or she probably heard us talking to it's parents. I hope we get to see this baby born, we gave the parents a card to come to church and our business card with our home phone. We also gave them literature to the local CPC Hopeline. They changed their minds and did not go in the killing center!

Another mom that changed her mind was Miriam. She is Catholic also, twenty-seven years old and twelve weeks pregnant. Carmen got to share scripture with her about accountability to the Lord and prayed with her. She came alone. The baby in her womb sleeps, awakens, exercises, turns it's head, curls it's toes, opens and closes it's mouth. If we had the chance to stroke her baby's palm, it would make a tight fist. Miriam said she was going right to her gynecologist when she got off the bus today.

Another Mexican couple drove slowly by the mill. They drove around the corner and parked. Carmen walked around the block to their car and had the opportunity to talk to them. She gave them all the informative literature and they changed their minds and left! Thank you, Jesus, for all these babies saved! Thank you for using Carmen as your vessel.

Remember it was less than thirty years ago that abortion was branded an abominable crime by most states, and considered a moral evil by most people. In addition to the unborn child, others have been considered non-person status under the law. Blacks suffered under the inhuman but constitutional yoke of slavery and Jews in Hitler's Nazi Germany were herded under deportation orders to the gas fumes of death camps. It is a glory to our nation's history that William Lloyd Garrison and other abolitionists were free to vigorously express their convictions that slavery was a grave moral wrong.

There was as baby saved in New Haven because of signs! We got a report today from one of the sidewalk counselors that a baby was saved Friday at 911 State St. because of our sign of the baby's head:

"But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of this world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of this world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are. " 1 Cori. 1:27, 28

We had 50 saints out praying on the streets including many CHS students, and four other clergy (Pastors Dave and  Randy, Fathers Markey and Smith). There was no police officer on duty, Donald and Carmen captured some moments on video camera from the mornings activities. We even had a Spanish girl that came with someone and said she wants to come out to the streets and do what we do. PTL!

As we move closer to the inauguration of our new president I exhort you all to pray without ceasing for him and his cabinet. "First of all, then  I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, for kings and all who are in authority, in order that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior." 1 Tim. 2:1-3

January 22 is the 28th anniversary of the infamous  Roe v. Wade decision made in 1973. Since then, 40 million babies have been ripped apart and killed in our nation. Shame on us.  We will be having special services Sunday morning at 8:15 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. to remember our job as the church in such a horrible situation. We will also have a movie on Sunday night 6 p.m. BONHOEFFER: the cost of FREEDOM (a man whose message couldn't be silenced).
Please join us. Thank you for all you do. "Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure." 1 Cori. 4:12

Serving the King of Kings,
Marilyn Carroll

Forty prolifers came out to pray today as the weather broke and became a little warmer than it's been (40 degrees). The CHS students were back from their NY missions trip as fifteen youth came out to pray early including a few homeschoolers. Pastor Randy led them in prayer and Father Smith was also there to represent the clergy of our local area. We urge all pastors to come out with their congregations and take a stand against this injustice in our communities. Friday we will remember the 40 million babies killed in America since Roe v. Wade made abortion legal on 1/22/73. Our annual vigil starts at 7 a.m. as we enter into National Sanctity of Life Weekend. We will have special Sunday morning and evening services during this sad anniversary.

Abortionist Shubb came a little early today at 9 a.m. Officer Mack (#789) was on duty at the door of the killing center. It is ironic that a police officer that was trained to protect life is a guard at the door of a death camp where little baby boys and little baby girls are being killed.

Donald and Will were on video to capture the moments of the morning as twenty-one moms (10 black, 6 white, 5 hispanic) went in to have their children killed. Sidewalk counselors tried to persuade them to keep their children as five elderly deathscorts tried to drown out our words.
"The Lord will give strength unto His people; The Lord will bless His people with peace." Psalm 29:11

Four changed their minds and two turned away leaving fifteen precious little ones to die!

Pray for Senator Ashcroft and the confirmation hearing for attorney general that starts today. We see throughout His story a pattern. Nations that despised the law of God and shed much innocent blood were cast by God into awful pits of confusion and turmoil. We see that happening in America as our country divides over abortion and God's laws. But remember God promises us peace and strength in the midst of it all. There is no confusion in the hearts and minds of praying, trusting believers. "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is staid on thee: because he trusteth in thee" Isaiah 26:3

Sunday we had over twenty moms and children at church. We thank Nancy, Tom and Pastor Randy for help with the van ministry. "Never give in then, my dear brothers, never admit defeat; keep on working at the Lord's work always, knowing that, in the Lord, you cannot be laboring in vain." 1 Corinthians 15:58

See you Friday at the "gates".

For the Lord of Life,
Marilyn Carroll

January 12, 2001

Today we had 22 prolifers out on the streets praying. There were three clergy (Pastor Dave, Fathers Markey and Smith) to rightly represent the leadership of the local churches. There were 6 "deathscorts", although it seemed like 16 with Patricia, Betsy and "Mr. & Mrs. Scotland" riling up all the demons! Betsy was trying to talk the clients into pressing charges against us. Oh well, some things just never change! "And (God) has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.... Therefore, I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong" 2 Corinthians 12:9-10.

Twenty moms went in to abort their second trimester babies. Three turned away leaving 17 babies to die an excruciating death! Abortionist Blumenfeld entered the killing center at 9:30 a.m. Officer Garcia (#513) was on guard at the door, hired by the death camp. Donald was on video for them.

In this ministry, we face tremendous physical and emotional challenges. Paul was an example to us in the scripture as he acknowledged the need for God. We must never lose sight of the goal that God has set before us. When difficulties arise we must stay the course. Paul did not give up, and God blessed his efforts while teaching him to live a faith filled life. We could never do this in human strength or ability.

As the Roe v. Wade anniversary on Jan. 22nd nears, we must remember the 40 million babies slaughtered in our nation since 1973 from legalized abortion. Friday, Jan. 19th, will be our annual church wide prayer vigil from 7 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Spread the invitation and bring a friend. If we don't stand for truth, who will?

Please continue to pray for G.W. Bush and John Ashcroft. Call your senators and the judiciary committee.

Hope to see you all at the "gates" every Tuesday and Friday 7 a.m. and on as we stand in the gap for our precious little brothers and sisters who are sentenced to die. Come before work or school. As the church changes its heart toward the unborn, God will hear us, forgive our sin, and heal our land. Jesus is the only answer!

For Him,
Marilyn Carroll

NEEDS: diapers size 6, dishes, full bed frame, queen bed frame, people to pass out literature for post abortion, Tues. and Fri. after 9:30 a.m.

January 5, 2001

Today we had 40 prolifers standing on the streets for righteousness. There were 13 CHS students who came to pray before school with one of their teachers, and their were three clergy (Pastor Dave, Fr.Markey, Fr. Smith) who continue to be an example to their flocks and the community. Christians are called to set a standard that lines up with the word of God.

Proverbs 24:10-12 tells us:
Will he not repay each person according to what he has done? If you falter in times of trouble, How small is your strength! Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it?

So in obedience to God's word we stood on the ice cold streets of Bridgeport and pleaded to thirteen moms that came to kill their children as 16 "deathscorts" were present to combat our efforts. We praise God that one changed her mind (pray for Laura - she never even made it to the door). Another one turned-away. Unfortunately, we believe twelve innocent and precious babies were left to die. Abortionist Blumenfeld entered the mill at 9:30 a.m. Officer #32 was on duty at the door with no name tag - hired by the baby killing business. Donald was on video for them.

Do you see many imperfections here with this scenario? Let's compare this to the central story of our Christian faith. It had many less than ideal elements, too, like we experience today.

As Mary had to travel to Bethlehem when she was due to have Jesus at any moment, it would have seemed to be imperfect timing, when Jesus had to be born in a stable, it would have seemed to be imperfect facilities, with a bunch of shepherds and animals around it would have seemed to be an imperfect audience, as the wise men arrived many years later it would have seemed that they had imperfect guidance, as Simeon was foretold by God that  Jesus was the Messiah as he witnessed His baby dedication in the temple, it would have seemed to be imperfect foresight and as Joseph had to flee to Egypt so the baby Son of God would not be killed, this would have seemed to be imperfect security.

So no matter how imperfect the scenario may seem to us when we are standing out in front of that killing center, pleading with moms not to kill their very own children,  we must remember what God can do amidst the imperfections in life. Out of all the imperfections stated above He gave us a perfect Jesus and His perfect plan works on in us.

So I hope to see you all at the "gates" as we try to win some with grace and love in our hearts. As we speak to those who don't know the Lord let us speak the truth in love. 1 Cor. 9:20-22 "I have become all things to all people, that I may by all means save some". Let's be winsome in 2001!

For Him,
Marilyn Carroll <*)))><

December 30, 2000

We had a blessed time last night as we witnessed the holy union of Flip Benham's son Jason, and Pastor Cantedore's daughter, Tori. "You were united to your wife by the Lord. In God's wise plan, when you married, the two of you became one person in His sight. And what does He want? Godly children from your union." Malachi 2:15

In the month of December - there were 10 babies saved, and 14 turn-aways! PTL! There were approximately thirty prolifers out in the frigid cold (-15 degrees wind chill factor) yesterday. Officer (#946) was on duty for the mill, and Will and Donald were on video to "catch the footage" of the morning. Dagney was kind enough to bring a portable heater and we gave out a bunch of hand and feet warmers :-) Some of the CHS teens came out even though they were on school vacation. Their dedication is truly observed by many, especially God! Our brothers Flip Benham and Rusty Thomas joined us we had three babies saved and three turn-aways! We give our Lord and Savior King Jesus all the glory!

Carmen, Rusty, Colbi and I had the chance to talk to one of the moms, Carla, who was very receptive. Colbi, my eight year old granddaughter just had to tell her that the baby in her womb was going to grow up to be a child just like her! "You have taught the little children to praise you perfectly. May their example shame and silence your enemies!" Psalm 8:2 Please pray for the other moms Verdita and mom #3 who were seemed relieved that they changed their minds. We gave them videos and resource information for any help they might need. "His preaching will bring fathers and children together again, to be of one mind and heart, for they will know that if they do not repent, I will come and utterly destroy their land." Malachi 4:6

It is very sad though that 23 moms went in to have their children killed. The abortionist went in at 9:20 a.m. We are not sure who it was? One of the grandmothers was outside crying because she could not get her daughter to change her mind. Where are all the newscasters to report this injustice! It's amazing how all the newscasts showed the travesty of the seven co-workers that were killed in Massachusetts, but no one seems to care about the innocent babies that are being killed in abortuaries all over our nation . It was pretty evident to us that seventeen babies died in Bridgeport yesterday. Why didn't we see this reported on the news?

As we enter a new year I want to encourage all of you to look forward to the hope Jesus has given us. In Revelation 21 we are all reading now how we will inherit a new earth. He will live with us - His people. He will wipe away all the tears from our eyes, and there will be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor pain. He will make all things new! Everyone who conquers will inherit all these blessings, and He will be our God and we will be His children. But cowards who turn back from following Him and those who are unfaithful to Him, including the corrupt, the murderers, and the immoral, and those conversing with demons, and idol worshippers and all liars -- their doom is in the Lake of Fire that burns with fire and sulfur.

Keep believing God to end child sacrifice in our communities real soon. Never stop praying for our new president-elect, that he would not be a pragmatist but have a biblical world view. Pray that God gives him mature Christian counsel. But most of all pray for the true biblical church of Jesus Christ to rise up in these evil days and do what God has called us to do! "These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men." Matthew 15:8&9 Jesus rebuked the religious leaders in Matthew 23 that were in the same state as the American Church today, we need to take note and repent. "Why do you also transgress the commandments of God because of your traditions?"

Looking forward to serving the Lord with you in 2001!

Praise be to our God, many lives were saved and turned around today! There were over 25 prolifers on the streets praying. The CHS youth came before school with one of their teachers to pray. We need more teachers like this in America to set a godly example to their students. Father Markey and Father Smith were there to rightly represent the leadership of the local churches. Fourteen moms went in for abortions. Two changed their minds and five turned away! PTL! It is very sad, though, that seven were left to die. God is still in control in spite of this apparent triumph of evil. We must rejoice in the Lord and be happy in the God of our salvation!

It was sickening to see Holly, the office manager, going in today with bundles of party items and food. I asked her how they could have a Christmas party when they are killing babies inside. I told her and every mom I counseled today that the first Christmas gift was a child. I pleaded with them to not destroy these precious gifts from God. Both abortionists went into the mill today, too, to celebrate. Shame.

"Beg him to save you, all who are humble -- all who have tried to obey. Walk humbly and do what is right; perhaps even yet the Lord will protect you from his wrath in that day of doom." Zephaniah 2:3

Habbakkuk, too, saw a dying world and it broke his heart. Why is there evil, why do the wicked seem to be winning? How long must we plead before God before He will listen. Must I forever see this sin around me? We can relate to this in our day!

"O Lord, now I have heard your report, and I worship you in awe, for the fearful things you are going to do. In this time of our deep need, begin again to help us, as you did in years gone by. Show us your power to save us. In your wrath, remember mercy." Habakkuk 3:2

Don't ever give up hope. One day Jesus will rule the whole earth with perfect justice. Hope is going beyond our unpleasant daily experiences to the joy of knowing God. "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end." Isaiah 9:6,7a

Peace Be With You,

Today there were over 40 saints out on the cold sidewalk praying for the precious little babies sentenced to die on 211 Middle Street. Operation Full Court Press was in full swing as sidewalk counseling, praise and worship, and prayer teams were in one accord before our Lord and Savior, King Jesus. We had church on the street today. Pastor Randy led the youth in prayer as students revealed their hearts to God about what was going on in that dark cold building. "The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak; those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint." Isaiah 40:28-31

To my knowledge fourteen moms went in and one left, leaving thirteen babies to die. We also had a state van bring a prisoner in leg chains to get an abortion. What a sad sight. Will and Donald were on video as usual. Will captured some maneuvers by the escorts trying to push us away from the moms. This is a sad day in America that an officer of the law (who today was #703 Perez) stands guard at the doors of a death camp where babies are being ripped apart. Woe to anyone who would harm God's children. What blatant arrogance toward God to think they will get away with persecuting His children. . "Woe to you who lie awake at night, plotting wickedness; you rise at dawn to carry out your schemes; because you can, you do." Micah 2:1

The church today, is God's holy nation and we are called to stand for righteousness. We need to continually pray for the abortion providers and the moms and dads that bring their children to be killed. "Neither did they change their mind and attitude about all their murders, their immorality and theft." Rev. 9:21

In spite of what is going on around us "Fear not: for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:10-11
Thank you Jesus!

Today we had about 40 prolifers out on the streets to pray. Two priests (Fr. Markey & Fr. Smith) were present to rightly display the concern of leadership in our local churches. We had numerous youth out before school and some homeschool children praying in the cold for their peers. Seven deathscorts were in motion every time a car or pedestrian appeared in the vicinity of the mill. Their major focus was to keep the moms and their accomplices from hearing what we had to say. We try to persuade moms not to kill their children and offer them help. The officer was Brett Hydman #998. We had camcorders rolling on both sides (Will & Don). Abortionist Blumenfeld went in the back door around 9:45 am.

Seven moms went in and one turned away. This calculates to six defenseless babies left to die. I see this as a van full of children being eliminated, a dozen parents scarred for life and the intense grieving of the Holy Spirit. Did this grieve God's church? Does the Church of Jesus Christ in America seriously take notice of this massacre? Does anybody care or have we grown accustomed to this practice of child sacrifice in our nation? When will Christians awaken and become the true Biblical Church to obey God's command to rescue these children? (Prov. 24:10-12)

In light of the long awaited election results, I have been reminded that "With good men in authority, the people rejoice; but with the wicked in power, they groan." Proverbs 29:2. My spirit has been groaning in the last eight years and I pray the Lord will use this new president to bring some integrity and character back to the office. "When the wicked thrive, so does sin, but the righteous will see their downfall." Proverbs 29:16

If you voted for a man that favors abortion and homosexual marriage and you claim to be a Christian, then you simply have to ask yourself "what does the Bible say about killing innocent babies and homosexuality?" Remember we're going to be judged by what the Bible says ... and not by the economy. "Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world - the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does - comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever." John 2:15-17

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1
I want to encourage all my brothers and sisters who have laid down their comfort zones to take a stand and do the right thing. You who have been faithful and strong. There is an underlying substance and reality of evidence to what God is accomplishing both spiritually and materially. As our Lord blesses, the enemy becomes confused and defeated. So, continue to live by faith and not fear, to trust and not doubt. In God's love letter to us (The Bible), He gives us so many examples of His people that changed their world. If we run and never give up (patience), He will make us win. He is our strength, our faith, our endurance, and our love to save His children from death. Please come and join us on the streets to pray for a quick end to child killing in our community. It can be done. "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us" Hebrews 12:1

Five babies were killed today in Bridgeport. The reason was that they were not conceived in ideal circumstances. So their parents opted to hire an abortionist to kill them. (Their very own flesh and blood; their sons and their daughters.) We weep and mourn for these precious little ones. We heard it all today - right from the lips of parents, grandparents, and friends. There was even a great-grandmother today that took her young granddaughter in to kill her great grandchild. She told me that she could not "be bothered" with the adoption process. It was easier to just kill their baby. What a shame.

Woe to us, America. These innocent babies were sacrificed today on our modern alter of convenience. What could be more disastrous than a nation that kills 4400 babies a day. As disciples of Christ we have a God-given privilege and responsibility to help our nation regain moral integrity. These young people going in hunger for spiritual wholeness. They need caring Christians who demonstrate Godly choices and will walk with them as they confront tough decisions. This becomes one of the jobs of a "sidewalk counselor". Please come and join us, we need more committed people to help.

Billy Graham put it well when he said, Who knows what events await us in this century -- both for good and for evil? I believe that the greatest challenge of this century will not be technological, economic, social or political. The greatest challenge, instead will be spiritual: for unless we tame the human heart, the 21st century could become the most destructive and cataclysmic in human history.

We had about 35 prolifers (including two clergy and fifteen CHS students) out praying to our Lord today, mostly early before work and school. If you can only stop by for a short time, that is better than not coming at all. We took a stand today for our helpless, defenseless neighbors that could not speak for themselves. The Lord tells the church in Amos 5 to "Seek me and live .... Hate evil and love the good: remodel your courts into true halls of justice ....There will be crying on the streets ... For that day will not be light and prosperity, but darkness and doom! ....I hate your show and pretense -- your hypocrisy of honoring me with your religious feasts and solemn assemblies. I will not accept your burnt offerings and thank offerings. I will not look at your offerings of peace. Away with your hymns of praise -- they are mere noise to my ears. I will not listen to your music, no matter how lovely it is. I want to see a mighty flood of justice -- a torrent of doing good." (Emphasis added)

Around 9 a.m. we had winds up to 60 m.p.h. out on the corners of Gold and Middle Street. The wind blew many objects including shingles off the historical building across the road. The northwest bluster almost raised Stan G. right up into the air as he tried to secure the large signs that were blowing away. We were on the streets as His "living epistles" to stand for life and  truth. Eleven "deathcorts" (including Wesleylan students) tried to misrepresent us to the clients going in as we tried to persuade eight moms not to kill their children. One changed her mind and two turned away!PTL! Edgar Perez was the police officer on duty. Will and Donald were on camcorders to video the events of the morning . Abortionist Shubb went into the death center around 9:45 a.m. to do his grizzly work.

Hope to see you at "the gates", 211 Middle Street, Bridgeport, Friday and Tuesday mornings, 7 a.m. - until the killing stops.

For the Least of These,

December 8, 2000

Today was the first snow of the season. It was quite brisk out there on the streets, but praise be to God it was worth the effort put forth by the saints because two precious babies were saved! PTL! There were at least 42 prolifers (including eight small children) that came out to pray, most came early before work and school. The CHS students were singing Christmas hymns unto the Lord. For the most part, these carols were the only ones these babies brought in for extermination would ever hear.
"But all who reject me and my message will be judged at the Day of Judgement by the truths I have spoken. For these are not my own ideas, but I have told you what the Father said to tell you. And I know his instructions lead to eternal life; so whatever he tells me to say, I say!" John 12:48-50

Thirteen moms went in to abort, two changed their minds and one was a turn-away leaving ten to die. I am assuming the abortionist went in the back door (late because of the weather and road conditions). We saw Pat leave on her normal escapade around 9 a.m. and return around 10. "When the wicked thrive, so does sin, but the righteous will see their downfall." Proverbs 29:16

Pastor Dave and Father Markey were their to represent the clergy of the greater Bridgeport area. "For the lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge, and from his mouth men should seek instruction - because he is the messenger of the Lord Almighty." Malachi 2:7 "Praise the Lord! Israel's leaders bravely led, The people gladly followed! Yes, bless the Lord." Judges 5:2 Many turn their backs or close their eyes to things they know are wrong because they don't want to get involved. We need to be the "good samaritans" to those being led away to slaughter. If I was an innocent victim, I would want someone to stand in the gap for me. How about you? David Ring, an evangelist with cerebral palsy said it well, "God doesn't want your ability, he wants your availability." You could make the difference to whether someone lives or dies.

Officer Pizzaro (#318) was on duty as eight deathscorts tried to combat the efforts of the sidewalk counselors reaching out to the lost and needy. The Wesleyan students were included in this effort as Pat and Betsy trained them for battle. Our Will and their Don were both on video trying to capture the significant events of the morning. "In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life will be persecuted" 2 Timothy 3:12 "All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved." Mark 13:13 "Be happy if you are cursed and insulted for being a Christian, for when that happens the Spirit of God will come upon you with great glory." 1 Peter 4:14

Carmen, Stan G. and I stayed until after 10 am counseling and passing out tracts. We expected someone to come for post abortion literature distribution as the moms coming out after their abortions need ministering to. We especially need more people for this endeavor. Thanks for all you can do.

For Him,
Marilyn Carroll

P.S. If anyone was successful in taping "Where Did All The Children Go" on TMC last Sunday, please let me know.

December 5, 2000

Good Afternoon, dear brothers and sisters in the Lord. This is the day our Lord has made and we will rejoice because Jesus is Lord and at least one baby was saved from extermination today on 211 Middle Street. The baby is 17 weeks old and the 19 year old mom's name is Jess. She plans to come to church Sunday, PTL. Please pray for her. Please pray for Maritza, too, who has serious problems, and pray that everything works out to get Alicia into her apartment soon. Your prayers are effective, we cannot do this without your help.

Forty-five prolifers were out early on the streets to intercede for the moms and the babies going into the death camp. We tried to persuade eighteen moms not to kill their children. We had to work around the manipulations of the nine deathscorts as they tried to distract anyone going into the abortuary from hearing what we had to say. "The wicked plot against the godly; they snarl at them in defiance. But the Lord just laughs, for he sees there day of judgment coming. Wicked people draw their swords and string their bows to kill oppressed and needy people, to slaughter those who are decent. But their own swords will pierce their hearts, and their bows will be broken. For the strength of the wicked will be shattered, but the Lord takes care of the godly. Day by day, the Lord takes care of the innocent." Psalm 38:12..18.

There was one turn-away leaving sixteen babies to die. Officer Zwally (#105) was on duty at the door of the mill. He seemed very quiet and complacent about what was happening in the killing center. We had our faithful videographer, Will, sober and alert to catch the happenings of the morning. They had Pat's husband, Mr. H. There were eighteen CHS students who cared enough about their little brothers and sisters to come out and pray before school. Someday we will see all these babies in Heaven and they know that there were those who cared enough for them to be there on the sidewalk pleading for their lives. Two clergy were present (Pastor Randy and Father Smith) to rightly represent the leadership of the church. We extend an invitation for more shepherds to come out and be that "living epistle" to their flocks by showing the example of standing for righteousness on the streets of our communities were defenseless children are drawn to slaughter. If we the church are not out there to say this is wrong, then who will? We are called to be "standard-bearers" for all to see. We are the body of Christ, His hands, His feet, reaching out to the lost and needy. We are to be salt and light. What does salt do? It burns, it preserves, it flavors. What does light do? It exposes things hidden in the dark. Those that can't stand the bright light of God's word and His presence will flee.

"He works on us in all sorts of ways. But above all, He works on us through each other. Men are mirrors, or "carriers" of Christ to other men. Usually it is those who know Him that bring Him to others. That is why the Church, the whole body of Christians showing Him to one another, is so important. It is so easy to think that the Church has a lot of different objects - education, building, missions, holding services ... The church exists for no other purpose but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became man for no other purpose. It is even doubtful, you know, whether the whole universe was created for any other reason." C.S. Lewis

I just want to thank Nancy, Tom, David, Joe, and Bill who sacrificed their Sunday and many other Sundays to bring moms and children to church on the van, to take them out to eat, to take them to the Christmas play, to collect and deliver Christmas gifts. The Lord is using you all in a mighty way to reflect His love to others. THANK YOU!

For the Least of These,
Marilyn Carroll

PS We have a Bridgeport mom that needs a babysitter 9-5 weekdays, if you know of anyone, please let us know.

"Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Mercies, and the God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted by God." 2 Corinthians 1:3,4

We were blessed to have 65 prolifers (including 20 students, 20 young children, 3 priests) come by today to offer prayers to our Lord for the precious little ones being killed inside the abortuary. The sweet incense of worship perpetrated the airwaves as the youth led by Bryan on the guitar, sang praises unto God. Operation Full Court Press was in effect as counselors tried to persuade moms to keep their children and prayer groups interceded on their behalf. Most of the people came out early and had to leave for work or school, but that's all right, every person's presence does matter to God and it makes a statement to the community. We had some come by later between 11am- 12 noon to pray while the moms were leaving after the abortions. We were able to offer help to ten of these moms. Many took literature.

Eighteen moms came to abort. There were two changed minds and five turn-aways. We believe eleven babies were left inside to die. We all mourn for their horrible deaths.

There were ten deathscorts (including Wesleyan students) led by Patricia, trying to combat our efforts to save babies' lives. Her husband Donald Hendrickson was on video and we had Will for us. Officer Daniel Ferrari (#147) was on duty. Abortionist Blumenfeld went into the killing center around 9:30 a.m. driven to the door by Pat H. We reminded him that we are praying for him and his repentance unto salvation. Brother John from Houston was also present to get some clips for a promo of our ministry on the streets.

"Try to help those who argue against you. Be merciful to those who doubt. Save some by snatching them as from the very flames of hell itself. And as for others, help them to find the Lord by being kind to them, ......Hate every trace of their sin while being merciful to them as sinners." Jude 22-23

One of the mom's Yolanda, that we met two weeks ago here, had her baby girl. She was only 6 months and weighs 2 lbs. Pray that her baby Cecelia's surgery at Yale in her stomach will be successful and that she will recover. Alicia found an apartment, thank you to everyone who contributed to that. Keep praying for our Pastor John, he is home recuperating from eight fractured ribs, shoulder and collarbone. His doctor said he is blessed to be alive after his terrible fall.

I encourage you all to come out to the streets and let your theology become biography. (FB) We are out there every Tuesday and Friday morning. We especially need more people between 9:30 a.m. - 12:45. If you can come on your lunch, join Helen who passes out post abortive literature and gospel tracts.

"Never give in then, my dear brothers (and sisters), never admit defeat; keep on working at the Lord's work always, knowing that, in the Lord, you cannot be laboring in vain." 1 Corinthians 15:58

To Him All the Glory,

November 28, 2000

It is with much gratefulness unto the Lord that I give you the statistics for November 2000. Eleven babies were saved, fifteen turn-aways, and two salvations. PTL!

We give our Lord and Savior, King Jesus, all the glory with the work he is honoring us to do in His name. I thank all for your faithful service this month. You have helped bring the joy of the Lord to countless lives. May God cause His face to shine upon you this holiday season. And may He bless you and your loved ones beyond all you can imagine! "You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours." Psalm 128:2

Today we had over 40 prolifers out on the streets. This included 18 CHS students who put their flesh under to get out of their nice warm beds this morning and come out in the dark and cold. We were honored to have Pastor Randy today to rightly represent the leadership in the church and lead us all in prayer.

We had a first time officer #345, Bob Simpson. Will and Donald were on video as they caught the events o the morning on tape.

Ten moms went in to abort and four turned-away leaving six innocent defenseless little baby girls and boys to face an excruciatingly painful death. God forgive us for allowing this barbaric act to become legalized in our nation, forgive us for not taking a stand on January 22, 1973 at the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. Forgive the Church of Jesus Christ for not being there for the 40 million babies that have already been slaughtered in our nation. Woe to America, a nation that was once founded on God and His principles. Like Israel judgment will come from the Lord. "From now on, when you pray with your hands stretched out to heaven I won't look or listen. Even though you make many prayers, I will not hear, for your hands are those of murderers; they are covered with the blood of your innocent victims." Isaiah 1:15 Please have mercy on us and help us oh God to bring righteousness back to this land.

For Him Alone,
Marilyn Carroll <*)))><

November 21, 2000

There were 50 professing Christians out on the by-ways today to stand in the gap for the baby boys and baby girls that were sentenced to die. "The earnest prayer of a righteous man has great power and wonderful results." James 5:16 Twenty-eight of those present were youth (ages 1-18). We praise God for the younger generation that is taking a stand for righteousness on the streets of Bridgeport. They are a living epistle for the Lord reaching out to the lost and needy. Father Smith was there to represent the clergy in the church.

Thirteen moms came to abort. Eleven went into the mill. Two did not go in. One was a crying mom who studied the pictures of life and death from the car and then took off. Those pictures saved at least one life today. Another mom we counseled at her car changed her mind. Pray for her (Yolanda). She has two other children and needs our help. She wants counsel and direction.

Two of the eleven that went in did not stay at the killing center. We don't know why. From what we know two babies were saved, two moms turned away, and nine precious little ones were left inside to die. Dennis Martinez #925 was the presiding officer. Donald Hendrickson and Will were there video recording the events of the morning. Nine "deathscorts" (including some Wesleyan students) were volunteering their time to make sure women's rights to kill their children were not infringed upon. Abortionist Shubb went in by 9:30 a.m., covering his face with a baseball cap as usual. Carmen and I stayed until 10 a.m. Another laborer, Pattie, came around 10:30 a.m. until noon to pass out literature to post abortive moms, and to offer them their only hope, forgiveness of sins through Jesus. We need more women to help with this ministry that Pastor Larry originated as an evangelistic outreach. "May God bless you richly and grant you increasing freedom from all anxiety and fear." 1Peter 1:2b

Gail reported last week that literature received from us and passed on to a mom that was planning to abort saved a baby's life! PTL! And another report came in today that a mom changed her mind last Tuesday after we left. So that's two more babies that were spared that we did not know about, and we give our Lord and Savior King Jesus all the glory. "So be truly glad! There is wonderful joy ahead, even though the going is rough for a while down here." 1 Peter 1:6

We had a wonderful "Ingathering" of food on Sunday at our church services to help needy families this Thanksgiving. We are also thankful that the abortuary will be closed Friday and hopefully no babies will die this weekend at 211 Middle Street. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you and your loved ones! Please keep praying for our Pastor John's recovery. Then the King will say to those on His right, "Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me." Matt. 25:34-36

Blessings to You,

November 17, 2000

There were 40 prolifers out to the streets today. It was a beautiful fall morning, but so sad to see that sixteen moms came to have their babies killed. There were 8 deathscorts present including some Wesleyan students. Mr. Hendrickson and Will were on video to capture the horrendous scenario of moms going into the death camp to have their unborn babies exterminated. Someday we will look back at this footage in amazement that this really happened in America. Just like we look back at the footage of the Nazi Holocaust at the Nuremberg Trials and are sickened that human beings were really able to treat their fellow men so cold heartily and without conscience.

"Don't you realize that making friends with God's enemies - the evil pleasures of this world - makes you an enemy of God? I say it again, that if your aim is to enjoy the evil pleasure of the unsaved world, you cannot also be a friend of God?" James 4:4b

Pastor Dave and Father Markey were there to rightly represent the leadership of the church. Two moms changed their minds (pray for Zaroni, a Jamaican mom) and two turned away (one of these was the blonde mom that went in crying, so pray that they don't go back). This left twelve babies to die. Abortionist Blumenfeld went into the death camp around 9:30 a.m. I reminded him of the hope of Jesus available to him through repentance of sin. It's hard for the clinic workers and deathscorts to comprehend that we do love them through the Lord's eyes. We just hate their practice of killing God's precious image-bearers! These are little baby girls and little baby boys that God created and God has a plan for their lives.

"Let there be tears for the wrong things you have done. Let there be sorrow and sincere grief. Let there be sadness instead of laughter, and gloom instead of joy. Then when you realize your worthlessness before the Lord, he will lift you up, encourage and help you." James 4: 9,10

I plead with you all to come out and have church on the streets. Witness for yourself what is happening on 211 Middle Street. We are need of music ministers, and women to pass out post abortive literature after 10:30 a.m. Tuesdays and Fridays Contact me if you can participate in this street evangelism effort.

Next week because of Thanksgiving abortions will only be done on Tuesday.

We also need people to befriend some of the moms, it is very hard for Carmen and I to disciple and provide help for 50 families at once, please share the load with us. Alicia is still in need of an apartment. We are joyful to have Nancy, David, Joe, and Tom helping with the van ministry on Sundays to bring moms to church that don't have rides. We have a special Sunday school class to teach them the basics of Christianity and we also have Spanish interpreters. Tomorrow is the "Ingathering" of turkeys and food to distribute to the needy families for Thanksgiving. Diapers size 5 and 6 and Enfamil liquid with iron are still needed. We will also need help delivering these items.

"Remember, too, that knowing what is right to do and then not doing it is sin." James 4:17

In His Service,

November 14, 2000

There were about 50 prolifers out on the streets today bright and early before 7 a.m. Twenty faithful CHS students plus Pastor Randy and faculty were there to send petitions before our Lord. Praise and worship filled the airwaves as a sweet fragrance unto the Lord. Father Smith was also there to represent the clergy of the greater Bridgeport area. Twelve moms went in and two left. One mom definitely changed her mind and the other is undecided. Please pray for Amber, the mom that changed her mind. Thank God you all equipped us to help her with baby food and formula for the baby she already has. We visited with two other Bridgeport moms after we left the center and also went to see our injured Pastor John, who is in the hospital after a terrible fall that broke four ribs, his collar bone and his shoulder blade. Please continue to pray for him, especially that he does not get pneumonia!

Sadly, ten babies were left insidethe mill to die. We mourn for them and for the absence created because of their deaths. We had ten "deathscorts" to contend with as we tried to offer hope to moms in crisis situations. The officer present was #375, Melico. Most of the saints were gone by 8:30 a.m. We continue to try and get folks to come out later in the morning to be there when everyone else goes to work or school.. If you can be there please let us know. Maybe you can come on your lunch hour or take it a little early.

Two video cameras were running to record the events of the morning for both sides. Abortionist Shubb went into the killing center around 9:30 a.m., shamefully covering his face with a baseball cap. We continue to reach out to him in the love of Christ and ask him to repent and stop the killing of these defenseless, innocent baby victims. Mercy triumphs over judgment, but one must admit guilt first and then request the need for mercy. "You will be judged on whether or not you are doing what Christ wants you to. So watch what you do and what you think for there will be no mercy to those who you will win out over his judgment against you." James 2:13 "Fool, when will you ever learn that "believing" is useless without doing what God wants you to?" v.20.

I continue to encourage you all to come out to 211 Middle Street, Bridgeport, where we have "church on the streets". We are believing God to hear our prayers and stop child sacrifice in our community. "What is faith? It is the confident assurance that something we want is going to happen. It is the certainty that what we hope for is waiting for us, even though we cannot see it up ahead. " Hebrews 11:1 When the Church of Jesus Christ shows up at one of the gates of hell, the gates will rise up so the King of Glory can enter in! Many lives are being changed through this street ministry to the lost and the needy. Please pray for our efforts to bring these moms and their families to church to disciple them and train them up in the things of God.

Meet you at the Gates,

We had a windy, wet, blustery morning in front of the killing center. Many umbrellas were broken as the winds blew and turned them inside out. Thirty-five prolifers were soaked on the streets proclaiming the gospel of truth as 21 sets of clients went into the death camp. This was a high number especially when you consider this to be second trimester day. Good old Father Smith was faithfully present at his ripe old age to represent the clergy of the greater Bridgeport area. Ten "deathscorts" were present with their videographer Donald Hendrickson. We had our Will on video to record the events of the morning. The officer present was #84, (Barrona). We stayed on the streets until 10 a.m. with the teens that were off from school because of Veterans Day. We went to the diner for breakfast. Someone stayed at the mill and reported Blumenfeld went in the back door at 10:05 a.m. I believe he was late because of traffic on 91 southbound coming from Hartford.

Carmen, Stan G. and I went back to the mill from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. We got to minister to, pray with, and give literature to eight moms after their abortions. We believe at least 10 abortions were committed. "And the King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.' Matthew 25:40 We are not sure what happened to the other 11. They could have turned-away when no one was there between 10:15 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. or still have been inside the mill. God only knows. But what we do know is that we need more saints to come out for those times. Please let us know if you can do this. "If sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. And if they perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay. If Hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for." --C. H. Spurgeon

Don Wildmon wrote about CHURCH TROUBLE-MAKERS ... WHO WANTS THEM? He would not be welcomed in the majority of churches today. In fact, he would be explicitly told he would have to leave. He would be welcomed even less in society. The media would have a field day with him. They would rip him to shreds. You see, he brought trouble everywhere he went. From time to time he was welcomed, but once the authorities learned who he was, efforts began to either take his life or run him out of town. He was educated in the best schools of his day. He learned the law well. He certainly had some negative comments about homosexuality and those who practiced it. And he presented his message in a manner considered most unacceptable by the religious leaders. Much of what he said would today be classified as "hate speech". He was very narrow-minded and exclusive. He gave his teaching on what was not acceptable in matters of theology, and those who disagreed were told they were wrong. He was very uncompromising. He changed from being a fiery liberal to being what many today would call a right-wing fundamentalist. He was a preacher, and his preaching usually ended in a riot or a revival. As long as he embraced the liberal perspective, he was a leader in the liberal ranks. But once he "saw the light", he was treated as a traitor by the liberals. He wasn't much on diversity, but he did try to adjust to different special interest groups in order to win them to his way. He even mixed religion and politics. When the religious leaders attempted to convict him on some theological points, he appealed to the secular courts. He let his religious convictions determine everything about his life - what he ate, what he wore, with whom he associated, where he traveled. Many of the liberal elite considered him a fanatic and thought the world would be a better off without him. Some of them even went so far as to attempt to take his life. a few times they were almost successful. No doubt about it. We wouldn't want him in our church. He would cause too much trouble. His name was Saul. But his faith meant so much to him that he changed it to Paul. He was an apostle.

I hope you all have gone out to vote or plan to before 8 p.m. Every vote does matter, in 1776, one vote gave America the English language - instead of German, in 1923 one vote gave Adolph Hitler leadership of the Nazi Party, in 1960, one vote in each precinct in Illinois would have defeated John F. Kennedy's bid for President. The founders and early leaders of our country believed that the election of God fearing men was essential for the survival of our nation! John Adams said "We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion ... Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other". George Washington himself stated flatly: "It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible." Please examine the records and campaign statements in light of the commandments of God in Holy Scripture. Viewed through the prism of God's standards I sincerely believe it is utterly impossible for a Christian who claims to be following God's word to vote for an advocate of the murder of children partially born and unborn, an advocate of special homosexual rights, someone who would appoint judges who are hostile to Christianity, someone who worships the environment and someone who would disarm our nation and demoralize our military.

It is because of the value of human life created in God's own image that we 40 professing Christians (including 20 youth and two clergy) were out on the streets today. We were there to stand in the gap for our precious little brothers and sisters who were sentenced to die at our local abortuary on 211 Middle Street Bridgeport. We praised and worshipped, we prayed, we counseled, we displayed signs of life and death, we gave out literature, and we gave out baby booties to moms that changed their minds.We had church on the streets as Operation Full Court Press was in effect. We have a van ministry that picks up the moms and babies on Sunday led by Nancy & Co. God is doing a mighty transformation of these moms and children as we disciple them and teach them God's ways. Please pray for us.

Orlando Lanzante #863 was the presiding officer. I asked him what the difference was between him standing in front of the abortuary or standing in front of a death camp in Nazi Germany where innocent Jews were being led to slaughter. He said that was a good question. I hope we can challenge these officers into thinking about what really is happening at the Summit Women's Center. Ten deathscorts were there to come against our efforts to help the moms in crisis. Donald and Will were on video to capture the "battle of the two seeds". Abortionist Shubb went into the mill around 9a.m. covering his face as usual with a baseball cap. I told him it was not too late to get on his knees and repent. About 13 moms went in and out of them two changed their mind and two turned away. Another mom that Carmen counseled in her car left without even going in. There were three changed minds! PTL! It looks like nine babies were left to die. Our Lord said "And you took my sons and daughters ... and sacrificed them to your gods and they are gone. Wasn't it enough that you were a prostitute? Must you slay my children by sacrificing them to idols?" Ezekiel 16:20-21 God goes on in verses 36-7 to tell us that because of filthy sins, adultery, worshipping of idols and the slaying of children as sacrifices to gods, He will shame sinners before their lovers and those they have sinned with. This is a pretty serious warning.

Other events of the morning were that two professionals went in around 9:10 a.m. on an investigation. Then Elizabeth Love (deathscort) was ready to leave around 9:30 am until she noticed Carmen talking to a Mexican couple. She stayed on to try to get the couple away from us. I asked her what help she had to offer the couple? She wanted to know if we gave them food, shelter and college education? Now that is the new protocol on whether or not you should kill your baby? I told her we give do give them food, we do help them find apartments and our church does have a scholarship fund available for college. But even if we didn't, does that mean a baby's life should be taken? She did not know what to say about that and when the police officer offered her one of Carmen's tootsie roll pops, she said "no, it's probably poisoned." I continued on to tell her how we love her in Christ because she is one of God's creations, and even though we don't like her philosophy, we still pray for her. We tell all the workers that we are praying for them.

We left the center around 10 a.m. Carmen gave one of the moms a ride and then we went to visit some other moms and babies. Carmen R. had a baby girl last Thursday, Amberlynn. She is a little doll! We also went to see Claudia and baby Rosa. Rosa is doing much better. Thank the Lord. We also went to Bridgeport Hospital where little Tyrone is, who was born in October weighing one and a half pounds. He was only six and a half months born premature. He now weighs in at two pounds! PTL!

Well I hope to see you all on Friday, Veterans Day, as we practice our constitutional rights on the streets. The freedom of speech, the freedom to assemble, the freedom to distribute literature and the freedom to proclaim the gospel. Our veterans did not die and fight in vain. Remember Abraham Lincoln once said that to sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards out of men.

See you at the Gates,
Marilyn Carroll

There were 60 saints on the streets praying early Friday morning for the souls of the lost and the babies sentenced to die on 211 Middle Street. Friday is second trimester day (4 months and up). The 21 CHS students and staff were there in worship and prayer unto the Lord. Sixteen moms went in to abort. Eleven deathscorts (including 5 Wesleyan students) made efforts to distract moms from hearing our message of truth and life. Six left (three changed their minds, three turn-aways). One wild dad came up to the mill in his Harley Davidson and went into the death camp to rescue of his baby! God uses all kinds :-) Abortionist Blumenfeld went in at 9:30 a.m. Sadly, 10 innocent precious babies were left to face an excruciating death as there little bodies were ripped apart limb by limb. But we know they are now in the arms of a great daddy, our Lord and Savior, King Jesus!

We were blessed to have two senior pastors present (our Pastor Dave and Pastor Gary from Stanford). Leaders should be an example to their flock; to set a standard in their community. There are 66 pastors in Bridgeport. "Yet God permitted it because of the sins of our prophets and priests, who defiled the city by shedding innocent blood." Lamentations 4:13 In Ezekiel 3 the Lord told Ezekiel he was sending him to the people with His message but they won't listen. They are hard and stubborn. But God made Ezekiel hard and stubborn too - as tough as they were. God said don't be afraid of them. Ezekiel went in bitterness and anger, but the hand of the Lord was strong upon him. In Revelation 10 God repeats to the prophet, yes you will have a sour stomach when you know the message you must bring to my people. It is sweet in my mouth but gives a stomach ache when swallowed. We have sour stomachs when we are at our local killing center, but we know we must be there to proclaim the gospel.

Christians are commanded to stand for righteousness and be salt and light in our dying world. When babies are allowed to be killed right in our neighborhood and we the church does nothing, woe to us! We saw Mayor Ganim drive by in his black 4 x 4 around 9:45 a.m. He previously defended prolife rescuers in his earlier legal profession. I guess now that he's a mayor he's forgotten about the babies? When we stand before God and he asks what did we do about the innocent children being slaughtered right down the street from us? what excuse will we give? "Rescue those who are unjustly led to death; don't stand back and let them die. Don't disclaim responsibility by saying you didn't know about it. For God, who knows all hearts knows your, and he knows you knew! And he will reward everyone according to his deeds." Proverbs 24:11.

Pastor Dave was able to help us out with Alicia and her cousin Matt who came with her two children, 2 and 5 months. The mill would not let them stay with the little ones so they left. I offered to give them a ride home, they had come from Milford by taxi ($20.). Pastor Dave jumped in to help and drove them. Alicia was still leaning towards abortion on the way home. She is 20 years old and just came here from Florida. Both her parents are dead, her grandmother just died, she has a brother in Ohio and a step sister in Florida which are not any help to her. She is having problems taking care of the two children she has now. Carmen spoke with her on the phone and we brought her a bible, diapers, formula, clothes and food last night before we went to prayer. She is living in squalid living conditions. Her cousin's house is a mess, falling apart, she is sleeping on a broken down couch with her two children under a leaky cracked ceiling. This girl wants help. She says she won't abort. She possibly will give her son and new baby up for adoption. She is coming to church tomorrow. She needs a place to live, she said she is trying to save money for a security deposit, she needs a job (she was previously a manager at Kmart), she needs daycare for when she gets a job. If anyone can help please let us know.

By the time 9 a.m. came around we were pretty scant as everyone went to work and school. We stayed on until 11 a.m. We need people to fill in this time slot (9:30 a.m. -12:30 p.m.). Please consider helping the lost and the needy. Carmen and I dropped off layettes for Nicole's baby who was born in October premature at one and a half pounds. He is still in the hospital, doing well, and up to two pounds.

For the Least of These,

Five babies were saved! Two of them are twins, we saw the ultrasound. So no matter how fiercely Satan bares his teeth, he can't stop God's work. Jesus has removed his bite! The gates of hell will not prevail against His church. Please pray for the glorious transformation of hearts touched by God's Spirit for Patricia and Marisol, two of the moms that need our help and are planning to come to church tomorrow.

Nineteen moms went in the abortuary at baby killing time. Out of that number, two changed their minds, and three turned away. This left at least fourteen babies inside to die. (if none of them were twins, etc.) One car that drove up, stopped, received counsel, changed their mind and drove away without going in. Another mom walking in, stopped, received counsel, changed her mind. Pastor Dave, Carmen, and I prayed with her and she did not go in. PTL!

We had 50 saints on the street praying today (over 20 CHS students, two teachers, and three clergy). Will and Don were on video, eight "deathscorts" were present and Abortionist Blumenfeld went in to perform his grizzly business around 9:35 a.m. "Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use disception, nor do we distort the Word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God." 2 Corinthians 4:2 NIV

I beseech all of you to come out on the streets near your local "high place". God wants us to seek Him with concern and brokenness as we stand for truth and reach out to the lost. How can we expect God's favor when we allow innocent children to be killed in our communities and do nothing. If you think this is Old Testament judgment then read God's New Testament warnings in Revelation to the complacent churches at Ephesus, Pergamos, and Laodicea. We must open our hearts to God's spirit, sober minded and with intensity so we can enter into full maturity with Christ. Let us not be like the Israelites who didn't like to hear a sharp, prophetic word. We can become addicted to prosperity and ease. Isaiah warned of "watchmen ... sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber" Isaiah 56:10. Isaiah wasn't speaking of natural sleep, but of disinterest in the things of God. A people who were inattentive to God's work.

"I was found of them that sought me not" Romans 10:20. We will experience God's glory when we cry out to Him in desperation. The hour is late. "Unto you that hear shall more be given" Mark 4:24 Hearing means to understand what God is saying to you. Motivated Christians hear God's spirit. When we do this God will come through "exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think." Ephesians 3:20 Oh, Jesus, we don't want to miss what you are about to do. We are at 211 Middle Street, Bridgeport, Ct. every Tuesday and Friday morning 7 a.m. and on. We especially need people to stay on or come later for the moms leaving after the abortions (10:30 a.m. -12:30 p.m.) and to watch for ambulances.

For His Glory,

Today there were 45 prayer warriors out on the streets starting at 7 a.m.. There were two clergy (Pastor Randy and Father Smith) to rightly represent the leadership of the local church. "But can you name even one of these prophets who lives close enough to God to hear what He is saying? Has even one of them cared enough to listen?" Jeremiah 23:18

Twenty CHS students sacrificed their sleep and their comfortable beds early this morning so that they could come out before school to pray! (We miss Bryan and Tim's music!)

There were nine pushy "deathscorts" trying to counter our sidewalk counseling efforts. It looked like nine parents went in to kill their children."...a deed so horrible I've never even thought of it, let alone commanded it to be done." Jeremiah 7:31 "...and they filled this place with the blood of innocent children. They have built high alters (Summit) to Baal and there they burn their sons and daughters in sacrifice --a thing I never commanded them nor ever thought of." Jeremiah 19:4-6 THE VALLEY OF SLAUGHTER ( 211 Middle Street, Bridgeport)"...Fathers flee without a backward glance at their helpless children." Jeremiah 47:3

Officer Zwally #105 was the hired police on duty, please pray for his salvation. Donald Hendrickson was on video for the pro death side and we had Will. He captured some interesting footage today of Elizabeth Love and the Wesleyan students attempting to physically push us away from the clients so they could not hear our offer of hope and truth. Abortionist Nelson Shubb went in around 9:15 a.m. He was covering his face, as usual, with a baseball cap and wearing shorts. Carmen and I left around 9:35 am to make some deliveries to the moms and babies. Helen was there to pray on her lunchtime. Unfortunately, I do not know of anyone yet, that changed their mind.

The Lord told Israel in Jeremiah 22:21 "When you were prosperous I warned you, but you replied "Don't bother me." v.23 "It's very nice to live graciously in a beautiful palace ... , but soon you will groan in anguish -- " Let us learn by this warning and stand in the gap for America before it is too late. Don't let your possessions and your comfort hold you back from standing for God's truth. "Take your share of suffering as a good soldier of Jesus Christ, just as I do, and as Christ's soldier do not let yourself become tied up in worldly affairs, for then you cannot satisfy the one who has enlisted you in his army." 2 Timothy 2: 3,4

In His Battle for Life,

October 20, 2000

We had almost 70 saints on the streets today including around 20 students from CHS, 15 children and two clergy. There were eight "deathscorts" to combat the ministry of the sidewalk counselors who reach out to the moms entering the mill. Eleven moms went in at abortion time, one changed her mind, and up to four turned away. We believe that at least six babies were killed. God's people will never get used to the fact that innocent children are massacred legally right in our own communities! Abortionist Blumenfeld arrogantly entered the death camp around 9:20 a.m. with his head proudly up in the air. John offered him the gospel message of salvation. The "deathscorts" did not want to hear about his trial Monday and the lawsuit that he lost. We continue to pray that the Lord moves in the midst of all of this to stop child killing in our community. "The good influence of godly citizens causes a city to prosper, but the moral decay of the wicked drives it downhill." Proverbs 11:11

Officer Bailey #726 was on duty as an overtime hired police for the abortuary. He did not interfere with our work. Stacia and Helen were there later in the morning to offer post abortion literature and the gospel message to the moms after their abortions. More people are needed to be there with her.

"I do not believe that any man can preach the Gospel who does not preach the Law. The Law is the needle, and you cannot draw the silken thread of the Gospel through a man's heart unless you first send the needle of the Law to make way for it." Charles Spurgeon

When we are out on the streets making our theology biography we set a standard of right and wrong in the public arena. God's word brings the conviction of sin by the Holy Spirit to the lost. Once they realize they are lost then we can get them found through the salvation messsage. Come and have church on the streets every Tuesday and Friday morning starting at 7 a.m. God has command us to "GO" to the innermost parts of the earth. Discover your call to be an ambassador for Christ as though Christ were pleading through you.

"We are Christ's ambassadors. God is using us to speak to you: we beg you, as though Christ himself were here pleading with you, receive the love he offers you -- be reconciled to God." 2 Corinthians 5:20

In His Service,

October 17, 2000

Mark Alan Blumenfeld, the same abortionist that botched the abortion on Sept. 8, 2000 at our local Bridgeport mill, lost a four day trial this Monday Oct. 16. Reported in the Hartford Courant today, the suit against him was by a former technician and administrative clerk who worked in his private Hartford office. Maria Guarco and other employees testified he had used fictitious and family names for years to order prescription drugs. He used employees to call in the drugs.

Guarco testified that Blumenfeld became erratic, shouted at staff and patients, and even slapped a patient on the operating table in response to something she said. Blumenfeld had difficulty performing late term abortions because of his nervousness and would talk to himself in the operating room. The abortionist fired her in 1998 for prying in his personal affairs.

The six member jury awarded her $133,000. in damages and the judge must decide if the defendant is to pay up to $133,000. in legal fees. In September Blumenfeld entered a consent decree with the Dept. of Public Health for five years probation requiring drug testing and physciatric treatment. He is prohibited from using illegal drugs and drinking alcohol. A year and a half ago he agreed with the Dept. of Consumer Protection not to dispense, administer, or prescribe drugs to himself, family, or individuals except for an emergency. However during this April and July he prescribed drugs to himself nine times. He was found to have written more than 90 prescriptions to a nurse who worked for him in the Hartford mill and others in the name of his former wife, who also worked there.

"These six things the Lord hates ... a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies." Proverbs 6:16-19.

Today we had almost 60 saints on the streets praying. We had our friends from all over the country. Pastor Bob and Bonnie were here from Buffalo and Brother John was here from Houston. There were over 25 youth and 4 clergy with us this morning. We were blessed to have Pastor Miller, from Bridgeport, back on the streets. Bryan led the students in worship with his guitar. Operation Full Court Press was in action as prayer teams gathered and sidewalk counselors reached out to the moms going in the abortuary. Eleven moms went in and one turned away. Another mom that came in a car, hesitated in her car for a while, and then left. PTL! Abortionist Shubb went in around 9:25 a.m. We believe there were ten babies killed today. Dr. Leo Alexander, who studied Nazi war crimes, stated that the first sign of fascism in a society is the prevalence of thinking in destructive terms rather than the sanctity of human life. We can compare the ease in which six million jews were killed then to the ease with which we abort one and a half million of our children each year. Woe to us!

Please join us every Tuesday and Friday until the killing stops! We are believing God to close the center for good.

In the Battle for Life,
Marilyn Carroll <*)))><

October 13, 2000

There were 50 professing Christians out on the streets (including 30 youth and 4 clergy). Operation Full Court Press was in process as Bryan led the praise and worship, intercessory prayer teams gathered throughout the morning, and sidewalk counseling teams approached moms entering the death camp. You all are the apple of God's eyes! "Godly people are a growing tree that bears life-giving fruit, and all who win souls are wise." Proverbs 11:30. God loves true servants - those who purpose to help others without thanks or praise and find contentment in giving.

The bottom line is that this is all about drawing the lost to Christ. When the church is there to set the standard of right and wrong, the sinner can be convicted of their sin. We have to remind them that they are lost before we can get them found. Unless they are convicted of sin, they will not realize they need a savior. Remember also, where sin more abounds, grace more abounds also. The grace at the mill is overflowing.

About fifteen moms went in. There were nine "deathscorts" at their posts countering the works of God's people as we offered the hope of the gospel to the clients. "The Lord despises those who say bad is good and good is bad." Proverbs 17:15 We know of two changed minds and four turn-aways. We were blessed to have some extra intercessors today that stayed for the moms leaving. Betsy one of the deathscorts, decided to stay, too. We sadly state that we believe nine babies were aborted.

"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded. Be afflicted and mourn, and weep, let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He shall lift you up." James 4:7-10

Officer Zwally #105 was on overtime duty hired by the mill. Abortionist Blumenfeld went into the abortuary at 9:25 a.m. this morning. We had Will and they had Donald on video capturing the activities of the morning.

Pastor Randy, Pastor Dave, Father Markey and Father Smith were all there today to rightly represent the leadership of the church in our community. Good leaders convince their men that the battle is worth the cost. We need to convince ourselves that the prize is worth obtaining. We don't have to pray whether or not we should do His word, but pray how we should do it. I can't think of anything more inspiring than to think of the day when we stand before our Lord on Judgment Day and we can hear Him saying to us "WELL DONE GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANTS". Wow! Just the thought of that is awesome.

In The Master's Service,
Marilyn Carroll †

October 10, 2000

Today we had over 30 prayer warriors on the streets. We would have had more, but most of the CHS students and Pastor Randy could not get to the mill because their vehicle broke down. A few of the students came in their own car. Father Smith represented the clergy today.

I walked into one of the new nurses today and told her that Jesus loved her and her life was valuable, just like all the babies sentenced to death inside the chambers. "In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins." Ephesians 1:7

Seven moms went in and one changed her mind (pray for Cindy). Two turned away, leaving four babies to die.

Abortionist Shubb went in at 9:20am covering his face again with a baseball hat. "The fear of the Lord is to hate evil, pride and arrogance and the evil way." Proverbs 8:13. Eleven "deathscorts" were on duty trying to combat the works of God. The police officer (Day) showed up late at 9:30 am.

Carmen and I went to visit Baby Rosa after the mill, she finally was let out of the hospital since her birth on April 13th. Please continue to pray for her. They closed up the hole in her throat, but she still has a tube in her stomach. She can drink a bottle now, too. Her mom Claudia gives all the glory to God. "But on this one I will look: on him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at my word." Isaiah 66:2

Lord, please give us men and women who fear nothing but God, please give us men and women who can distinguish right from wrong, black from white, and please give us men and women who don't compromise through the subtle lies of Satan. Help us Lord to love our neighbors enough to confront their sin and not accept it, and to allow the blood of Jesus to cleanse rather than repeat the sin of 1 Corinthians 5.

For The Least of These,

October 6, 2000

We had at least 50 doers of His Word (25 youth)- not merely hearers or readers - on the streets of Bridgeport near our local "high place" on 211 Middle Street, Bpt. Those of you reading through the daily Bible reading plan from OSA just read in Jeremiah 7 how our Lord commands us to be fair to others and to stop exploiting orphans, widows and foreigners. God says to stop your murdering! The Lord thinks child sacrifice is a deed so horrible He never even thought of it.

"But the people that do know their God, shall be strong, and do exploits" (Dan. 11:32) We thank the Lord for the exploits he has done through His people. (Over 300 salvations and over 800 babies saved) Many saints have grown in the Lord as they themselves come to the "gates of Hell" and become a living sacrifice for the Lord to use as His hands and feet reaching out to the lost.

Eleven moms went in to abort, one changed her mind (PTL!). Ten babies were left inside to die. The mom that choose life spoke to Carmen afterwards, please pray for this teenager (Ericka). Stacia and Helen offered materials to the women that came out. Three post abortive moms took the information, we pray they will repent and come to the Lord.

I had a little foot scuffle with Betsy today as I was counseling a mom walking in, she kept pushing me over with her body and stepping on my feet. I tried not to get pushed over and stayed on my original path. With ten "deathscorts" on duty I am glad Will was there to video.One of the male deathscorts was giving Vinny a hard time and actually pulled a client into the deathcamp.

Abortionist Blumenfeld arrived about 9:20 a.m. Carmen asked him how the young mom was that they took out via ambulance on Sept. 8. He just stuck his head up in the air, showing no care or concern for the "health care of women".

It is quite amazing how cunning and thoroughly deceitful immoral and amoral people can be. Almost all evil leaders follow the same plan of using psychology and psychiatry to promote their agenda. Adolph Hitler was a real expert. He said, "By clever and persevering use of propaganda even heaven can be represented as hell to people, and conversely the most wretched life as paradise." This reminds me of the presidential and vice-presidential debates this week. It amazes me how the enemies of God speak of a god so often. I wonder who the god is that they talk about that would insure a woman's right to choose to kill her child through barbaric procedures? This is what they call women's healthcare. Then we have the men on the pro-life side that apologize for God. They compromise and rethink their stand to tolerate homosexuality and abortion. We need leaders who will stand unashamedly for God and His word in this wicked and adulteress generation without shrinking back. We need to really pray hard for our country.

Let us be a sober alert people being able to discern truth and error. I hope to see you all out on The Streets next week as His church stands for truth in our communities. We were missing our live praise and worship section today, although we improvised with a boom box. Please come out with your voices and instruments.

Today we had 60 prayer warriors including a large group of youth (30) that came out to pray before school. PTL! Operaton Full Court Press was in operation as Tim led with his guitar as others joined in to worship the Lord. We were glad to have Bryan back - even with crutches! What dedication these youth show to us and to the world that they care enough for their neighbors to get up early and come out in any weather, to be a shining light in the darkest demonic places. You could just feel the peaceful presence of the Lord as we had church on the street. Satan and his demons flee from the praises of God's people.

There were nine "deathscorts" trying to distract the moms from listening to us as they entered the death camp.

One couple changed their mind right in their car without even going in. Carmen and John spoke to them (one save.) We also gave them a video on abortion to take home to watch. Thirteen other moms went in including an inmate from jail. Two turned away leaving eleven babies to die today on 211 Middle Street. Our hearts break for these precious little ones who are ripped apart limb from limb. Those who sow tears shall reap joy. Yes, they go out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, and return singing, carrying their sheaves. Psalm 126:5,6 One day we will be with these little ones in Heaven, and they know we cared enough to be here interceding for them.

Two clergy were there today (Pastor Randy and Father Markey) to rightly represent the leadership of the local church. It was great to see Fr. Markey back, since he's been away in Mexico for two months.

Abortionist Shubb arrived around 9:35 a.m. covering his face again with a baseball cap. He did not like having his picture taken today. Holly, Noel, and Robin are some of the workers we saw today. We also had Police Officer Edgar Perez #1 present with us on overtime duty. Please pray for all of them to come to know Jesus in a personal way. We had Will on video for us and Stacia, John, and Helen were there to minister to and pray for the moms coming out after their abortions. We need more people for this station (11am-12:30).

Hope to see you at the "gates of Hell" on Friday, stop by before work or bring a friend. Don't shrink back now, we are near the finish line.Ninety per cent of the battle is to just show up and then see how our Lord uses you! We are believing God to end the child sacrifice in our neighborhood soon.

In His Service,

We had a partially empty morning today, without the CHS students. They were on retreat preparing for the Lord's battle in Jesus' boot camp as they filled themselves up with the things of God. The fragrance of their sweet spirits was truly missing this day. There were almost 30 prolifers out at 211 Middle Street proclaiming the gospel of His kingdom to all who passed by during the course of the morning. Pastor Dave and Father Bill were there to rightly represent the clergy of our community. We were able to give out numerous gospel tracts as people came by the walk way on their route to their jobs, court and elsewhere.

Twenty-one moms went in to abort and five left leaving a possible sixteen to die when we left about 10:10 a.m. We had trouble today talking to the moms that did leave because of the "deathscorts", but that's ok, God sees it all and knows our hearts and our efforts to reach out to the lost and the needy. Abortionist Blumenfeld arrived around 9:20 a.m.

Stacia came later to minister to the post abortive women after their babies were killed, and got to pick up on the witnessing to the police officer (Lanzanti #863) where we left off. Helen came on her lunch hour to pray. Thanks to all these faithful people that the Lord's work is being done!

The author of "Experiencing God" Henry Blackaby said "When God is about to do something, He reveals what He is about to do to His people. He wants to do it through His people ... When you know what God is doing, then you know what you need to do - you need to join Him" We know with all our hearts that the Lord is doing something here in Bridgeport, and we come anticipating the day when little baby boys and little baby girls will be safe here in their mother's wombs. "The Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets." Amos 3:7.

Come join the prayer warriors, the praise - worshippers and the sidewalk evangelists every Tuesday and Friday from 7 am and on to 12:30 pm. Whatever amount of time you spare does matter. As my fellow sidewalk counselor Patte Smith says, "Learn how to forget about yourself and really depend on Jesus. Develop gifts of evangelism, prayer, teaching, mercy, apologetics, and public speaking. Discover your call as an ambassador for Christ, as though Christ were pleading through you!" Start and stay "the course". "We are Christ's ambassador. God is using us to speak to you: we beg you, as though Christ himself were here pleading with you, receive the love he offers you - be reconciled to God." 1 Cor. 5:20

A baby boy was born at Yale New Haven Hospital to Lisa this Tuesday evening at 5:30 pm, 7lbs. 2 oz. PTL!

Twelve babies were saved in the month of September and twenty-two turn aways! Thank you Jesus!

It was a damp chilly day on 211 Middle Street this morning. Although we were cold, it was worth it to be there because one baby was saved because of our prayers. PTL! "For you have formed my inward parts; you have covered me in my mother's womb." Psalm 139:13. Please pray for this young mom, Maria, who has another young child at home. The saddest part of the morning for me was that eleven other moms were still in the mill when I left around 9:45 a.m. I hope and pray that some of them left after me without having their children killed. was a damp chilly day on 211 Middle Street this morning.

There were about 40 prolifers interceding on behalf of the innocent children scheduled to die. Out of that number, thirteen were youth. They gave up their comfortable beds to get up early to stand in the gap for their neighbors. Pastor Randy and some of the teenagers led in prayer as they gave the Lord their first fruit before school. "It is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish." Matthew 18:14

There were ten "deathscorts" present, including some Wesleyan students. They left for school before nine and the oldies were around to hear John read scripture near the front door.

The officer #214 did not have his name badge on. He was a pleasant tall black man. He got to hear the word, too. :-) Father Smith led some others in prayers. We had a little worship when the youth were there but really could use more voices and more instruments. Please come and use your gifts as we have church on the streets of Bridgeport.

Abortionist Shubb entered the front entrance around 9:30 a.m. trying to hide his face with a baseball cap. "They murder the fatherless" and "They gather together against the life of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood." Psalm 94:6,21.

So I exhort you all to come out to the streets this Friday 7 a.m. and on. The Lords asks us in His word "Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Who will stand for me against the workers of iniquity" Psalm 94:16.

It is a shame to say but this is what we deal with week in and week out with parents entering the abortion mill and with the "deathscorts" who usher clients into Satan's modern day temple to sacrifice their children on the altar of convenience. Patricia was in full swing this morning pushing Carmen around and elbowing me. "Hear me, you who know what is right, you people who have my law in your hearts: Do not fear the reproach of men or be terrified by their insults. For the moth will eat them up like a garment; the worm will devour them like wool. But my righteousness will last forever, my salvation through all generations" Isaiah 51:7&8 Thank God for our videographer Will and the police officer (#946) who were sharp and alert to keep the clinic workers and volunteers from getting too pushy.

Today there were 50 prolifers (30 of them youth) on the streets near 211 Middle Street to intercede for the little baby boys and baby girls sentenced to die. Seventeen moms went in to abort, seven left (3 saves and 4 turn-aways) leaving ten babies to die. For this we are grieved.

Operation Full Court Press was in full swing as Tim led the youth in praise and worship on his guitar. (Please pray for Bryan, one of the teens, who has led worship and was hurt at a soccer game.) There were counselors and prayer teams in service for the Lord proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom. There was such a sweet savor penetrating the airwaves to our Lord, and you could just feel His presence there, in spite of the circumstances, as Pastor Dave prayed.

I encourage every Christian to hear the call to take the Gospel of the Kingdom to the very gates of hell. Jesus has promised in Matthew 16:18 that these gates will not prevail against His church. Stand uncompromisingly for the truth of His word, and He will see to it that it is fulfilled as in Jeremiah 1:12. We are believing God to end this abomination in our community as we are obedient to His commands. I hope to see you out Tuesday and Friday morning as we become the hands and the feet of Jesus and reach out to the lost and needy. Bring a friend or stop by before work. Every person that comes does make a difference.

We had another exciting day at the mill today! The nurse Noel Georgette that grabbed John and threatened him with her hot coffee last Tuesday falsely accused me of trying to run her over a week and a half ago! Oh my. Please pray for this woman. Working at a death camp does affect people. The police officer (#1) Edgar spoke with her and she apologized to him. We are to resist these people's evil ways without hating them. David learned it was possible to hate someone's evil without hating the person. Paul was flattered by hypocrites who reviled, abused and slandered him. Even churches rose up against him. Enraged teachers, jealous of the revelations he received mocked and misquoted him. Others accused him of mishandling money. But he never stopped loving the people or praying for their souls. (1 Cor. 4:12-13, 1 Peter 2:23)

There were over 55 prolifers out to the streets praying this morning as twelve moms went in to have their children killed. Twenty-five youth were standing in the gap for their peers. Bryan played his guitar as their prayers went up to Our Father.

"Even the youth shall be exhausted, and the young men will all give up. But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wing like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." Isaiah 40:30, 31

Two clergy were present, Pastor Randy and Father Bill, to rightly represent the leadership of the church. Most would like to ignore this horrible holocaust happening right in our own communities.

Abortionist Shubb went in around 9:20 a.m. I asked him how the woman was that they took out to the ambulance last Friday, and what her health condition was. He did not answer me.

One mom changed her mind (please pray for her - Sonia) and three turned away leaving eight precious baby girls and baby boys inside the center to be exterminated. Oh God, please be with these tiny "image bearers" of yours as they go through the excruciating pain of having their little bodies torn apart! I know they will go right into the arms of Jesus. John and Stacia were there for the moms when they came out after the abortions. (We still need more people for this ministry.)

Abortionist Showed No Remorse for Botched Abortion

This morning I walked around the side of the mill to talk to a dad. As I was walking Patricia, the head "deathscort" pulled up and dropped of Abortionist Blumenfeld to go in the back door. I said to him, "How many women are you going to butcher today?" He quickly snarled "I wish you were one of them." This comment totally upset me. How could this man be so hard and cold to not even feel the least bit guilty for butchering the young mom last Friday. But why am I surprised? I guess your conscience is seared when you commit mass murders weekly on tiny defenseless baby girls and baby boys in their mothers' wombs. To top it off Patricia and the abortionist's assistant then went in the front door with a huge cake decorated in pink. How could they party in that horrible place where babies die and women get maimed?

In Isaiah 59:3-8 the Lord tells us how sinners lie and oppose good. They don't care about being fair and true. They spend time plotting evil deeds and doing them. They spend energy spinning diabolical plans which end in deadly actions. They cheat and shortchange everyone. Violence is their trademark. Their feet run to do evil and rush to murder. They don't know what true peace is, nor what it means to be just and good as they continually do wrong and those that follow them won't experience peace, either.

There were forty-five prolifers (including 21 youth and 2 clergy) praying out on the streets. Pastor Dave and Father Bill represented the leadership of our local churches. The CHS students sent their sweet sounds of worship up to the Lord before school today. I commend these students who take the initiative to drive here on their own when no other transportation is available. Both sides had their videographers taping.

Some of the Wesleyan student "deathscorts" were back totaling nine including the old timers.

The officer #108, in my opinion, had no idea what was going on.

Operation Full Court Press was in action again today.

Around sixteen moms went in for abortions. Two moms changed their minds (totaling four for the week PTL!) and four turned away. That probably left ten babies inside to die. We pray for all these precious little ones, God's "image bearers", who never had a chance to live.

Peaceful Prolifer Assaulted and Threatened by "Clinic" Nurse

Our dear friend, John D. Reyes, was physically attacked and threatened this morning by an irate nurse as she entered the Bridgeport abortuary. She already has one complaint filed against her by another gentle Christian. She was obviously upset with John because he knew about the botched abortion on Friday. The Bridgeport Police were called and showed up with three patrol cars. But much to our dismay, no arrest was made against her. I will follow with any further developments.

Seventy peaceful prayer warriors (including 40 children + students and one priest) were present on the streets in Bridgeport. This is the highest number of prolifers out there street since a Sanctity of Life weekend. God is doing something here, and we are believing Him to close this mill soon.

Sixteen moms entered the mill to have their children killed. Two moms changed their minds after conversing with us. Please pray for them (Jaisy and Natasha). One other mom turned away.

Praise filled the air as Bryan led the group with his guitar. Later on in the morning Stan G.'s music box gave forth sounds of worship. Operation Full Court Press was in action including counseling, and prayer teams.

There were ten "deathscorts" including Clive with his skin-tight biking pants and a new woman Susan who could very easily become Patricia's match. Susan was physically pushing me away from a car when I shouted to Officer #985 to come to my assistance. She desisted as he quickly came to the scene.

Abortionist Shubb showed up around 9:45 a.m..

Good old Father Smith (around 80 years old) was there again to faithfully represent the leadership in the church. The leaders are the ones that convince the soldiers that the battle is worth fighting. It is impossible for us to take our cities for God and leave the "high places" alone. There are so many that are unwilling to lay their lives down for those who cannot speak for themselves. Thirteen babies were left in the mill today to die. Shame on us the church, that we have allowed this evil to creep into our nation.

I hope to see many more of you out on the streets Friday. Bring a friend or stop by for a few minutes before work. Ninety per cent of the battle is just showing up!

"It is better to be divided by truth then united in error. It is better to speak the truth that hurts and then heals, than falsehood that comforts and then kills. It is not love and it is not friendship, if we fail to declare the whole counsel of God. It is better to be hated for telling the truth than to be loved for telling a lie."
