Red Envelope Day

Red Envelope DayIf you have a moment to spare, please check out the Red Envelope Day initiative. (Or on Facebook.)

On March 31st, participants in Red Envelope Day will send empty red envelopes to the White House. Each envelope will have the following message written on it:

“This envelope represents one child who died because of an abortion. It is empty because the life that was taken is now unable to be a part of our world.”

This is a non-aggressive, awareness-raising approach that makes the Pro-Life point while being respectful and to-the-point. For those of us who believe that human life should not be at the whim or convenience of those who feel that they have power over it, this is a chance to show an increasingly ruthless federal government that we care.

If you’re interested in the plain, objective numbers behind why this is necessary, here they are.
