Topic: Pro-Life Clippings
Dear Colleague,
I write to you on a matter of grave urgency.
It has come to my attention that a high-ranking pro-abortion bureaucrat from the United Nations will be addressing the opening ceremony of World Youth Day in Cologne, Germany in a few days.
The speaker is Eveline Herfkens and she heads the UN Millennium Campaign. Ms. Herfkens comes from Holland where she held many high-ranking governmental positions including the Netherlands Minister for Development Cooperation.
SUPPORTED THE ABORTION SHIP
During her term there, Ms. Herfkens supported the notorious abortion ship that drops anchor off the shores of pro-life countries and performs illegal abortions. Herfkens was quoted as saying the ship a concret answer to an awful problem. She also suggested that the Dutch government financially support the abortion ship.
What in the world is this woman doing speaking anywhere near World Youth Day?
SUPPORTS UN ABORTION EFFORTS
Hefkens runs the Millennium Development Campaign of the United Nations, which is problem enough. The Millennium Development Goals, which are about to be approved by the UN will include a call for "reproductive rights"' which includes the right to abortion.
We must stop her appearance at World Youth Day. You can help but only if you act right now! Time is running out.
Please send the following message to Cardinal Meisner of Cologne who is the president of the WYD Diocesan Management Board. Cardinal Meisner likely does not even know of this woman's dubious pedigree, so we urge you to be nice to him when you write.
Here is where to write:

Here is what you should say (just cut and paste and add whatever personal touch you see fit, but be polite and respectful.

Dear Cardinal Meisner:
A pro-abortion speaker from the UN named Eveline Herfkens is speaking to World Youth Day in support of the Mellennium Development Goals. Among other things, Ms. Herfkens supported the abortion ship that prowls the waters of pro-life countries intending to commit illegal aborions. We urge you to cancel her invitation. Her presence will sully this grand event.
Yours sincerely,
Sign your name, or not...but be polite!!!
----------------------------------------------------
World Youth Day is too important an event to be sullied by the presence of pro-abortion UN bureaucrats. We must act globally to stop this now. Please act immediately to stop this outrage. Act now.
Yours sincerely,
Austin Ruse
