The pro-life movement is calling for Saturday, December 3rd to be a Day of Reparation in honor of the baby whose death by abortion was broadcast live on National Public Radio (NPR) on November 4th.
Pro-life leaders have named the child Baby Amanda Marie and we are asking every pro-life individual, organization and lawmaker to mark the day with fasting and special prayers, including Masses for Catholics. These actions can be done privately, but the more they are done in common, with groups, the better.
The recording picks up the moans of the mother, but her child’s scream is silent. The staffer with the mom says ‘You did it,’ and ‘You did great,’ when the killing was complete. There is no mention of the baby who has just died in a brutal way at 11 weeks. The baby’s humanity is not even an afterthought.
We have to re-humanize what this abortion and this broadcast de-humanized. And we have to make a big deal of what this broadcast trivialized.
The Day of Mourning will honor the baby and also ask God for forgiveness for the legal abortion deaths of more than 65 million. Children in the U.S. since 1973. Prayers also will be offered for the mother who chose abortion, for the abortionists and the staffers who helped, and the NPR employees who took part in the broadcast.
Please have your parish join us December 3rd to honor Baby Amanda Marie, and to do our part on behalf of our sinful human race to recognize her true dignity.
