March-Saturday Jan. 22, 11AM-Brother Bryan Park
A Time for
Repentance, Witness, and Discipleship
We are fast approaching
one of the most meaningful opportunities for the entire
Pro-life Community to gather and proclaim publicly the
sanctity of every human being from the moment of conception to
natural death. Several facets of our gathering (Brother
Bryan Park 22nd St. South and 10th
Ave. Birmingham) and our prayerful March (about a mile
past two area abortion clinics) are shared in the hope that
you and those you may invite can participate as fully as
possible:
Corporate
Repentance and Intercession: We gather as the body of
Christ to repent of our sin, the sins of our community, and
the nation as regards the shedding of innocent blood.
The Scriptures (Deuteronomy 21.1-9) teach of the good
benefits that result when God’s people prayerfully gather at
the sites where the shedding of innocent blood has taken
place. As the Israelites prayed for their nation so we
corporately pray for Birmingham and our nation: “Absolve, O
Lord, your people…whom you have ransomed, and let not the
guilt of shedding innocent blood remain in the midst of your
people...”
Public Witness:
Our Lord calls upon us to publicly bear witness to the
sanctity of life, the evil of innocent bloodshed (abortion,
euthanasia…) and to the mercy available to all who turn to God
who is rich in mercy. May we heed the words of Our Savior
Jesus Christ: “You are the light of the world…your light
must shine before others that they may see your good deeds and
glorify your heavenly Father.”
Discipleship:
Jesus spent a great deal of time compassionately walking among
the people, cities, and culture of His time declaring the
truth and doing good. There is no substitute for putting
“shoe leather” on your faith, and the faith of your loved
ones. There is a dynamic present in this prayerful gathering
and walk that will aid your loved ones, especially children to
“get it.” The March is safe, legal, and a family
discipleship event.
