Personhood FL Tour Distributes Over 3,000 Pieces of Literature in Hispanic, Black, and White Neighborhoods in Miami

The Missionary to the PreBorn - Personhood FL Tour had a tremendous day today. The day started in a Hispanic neighborhood on a street in front of an abortion mill and the Hialeah Senior High School where 3,000 students drove past large signs of born, preborn, and aborted babies. The missionaries were able to distribute 2,000 pieces of literature to students, pedestrians, and stopped cars. Some even signed the Personhood FL constitutional petition right on the street! The missionaries also went into the abortion mill, passed out prolife literature, and urged the women to choose life for their children! The missionaries literally passed out every piece of literature they had prepared!

The next stop was in an African American community located near the North Miami Pregnancy Help Medical Clinic, a prolife pregnancy center that I was able to tour in October with Dr Johnny Hunter and Dr O'Niel Dozier. A representative from the center came out and thanked the missionaries for coming out to stand for life in a neighborhood where Planned Parenthood targets black babies for abortion. The missionaries had reloaded their supply of material and were able to pass out more literature.

The next stop was supposed to be at the 163rd St Mall, but we changed the intersection yesterday. As with the other stops, God's providence prevailed. It so happened that traffic leading to the 163rd St mall was blocked off for blocks in all directions due to a strange bag left at a bank. The missionaries meanwhile were busy holding signs, passing out literature, and meeting friends and foe at another busy intersection in an upscale area of North Miami.

Tomorrow, the Personhood Tour will be in Ft Lauderdale, West Palm, and Port St Lucie. Wednesday, the tour will be in Orlando and Daytona Beach before ending in Jacksonville Thursday. If you live near any of these cities, con­sider joining us. (Click here for times and inter sec tions in each city.) If not, please join Personhood FL in your city to stop abortion. Let’s make history by ending abortion in Florida!

A few post abortive women have contacted me with concerns over the signs. Please know that the signs do include pictures of born and preborn children as well as aborted babies. We don't mean to condemn anyone. We want post abortive women to know that full confession leads to full forgiveness in Jesus Christ. Jesus loves you, and we love you. The signs are not meant to condemn anyone for past actions. Rather our message is simply: If abortion is so horrible that we can’t stand to look at pictures of the mutilated babies, should we really tolerate it? I say no! It’s time to end abortion and protect women and children from the horrors of abortion.

These are just some of my thoughts on the signs. For a more in depth analysis on this see my blog, or watch my sermon both titled Why We Show Pictures of PreBorn and Aborted Babies.

Why Do We Show Pictures of PreBorn and Aborted Babies

The Personhood FL Tour is coming to Port St Lucie Tuesday afternoon, and already it has caused quite a stir. Thursday’s Article: Group to bring oversized photos of abortions to main PSL intersection has received 217 comments so far, and an online poll showed that TC Palm readers don’t want to see pictures of what they blissfully tolerate in our community. Sunday’s paper features a new article by Editor Anthony Westbury: Anti-abortion pictures unlikely to have impact. Please take a moment to read the articles, take the poll, and comment on them.

The Port St Lucie event is part of the Missionary to the PreBrorn Personhood FL Spring Break Tour which has already been to Panama City Beach, Tallahassee, Ocala, Tampa, Sarasota, Ft Myers, Naples and Miami and will cover Ft Lauderdale and West Palm prior to the PSL stop and then continues to Orlando, Daytona Beach, before ending in Jacksonville. The tour features two truth trucks with large signs of born, preborn, and aborted babies along with 45 prolifers with large signs. (Several of the cities on the west coast and central part of FL only had truth trucks due to excessive rain and high winds Thursday and Friday.) Participants will also pass out literature promoting the Personhood FL Constitutional Petition, which when enacted will end abortion in Florida and directly challenge Roe v Wade.

Why are we doing this? To remind post abortive women and men of their sins? No! To expose children to pictures they shouldn’t see? No! We’re doing this for the same reason William Wilberforce brought slave ships by the ships of English nobility. We’re doing this for the same reason that the world saw pictures of Nazi holocaust victims. If abortion is so horrible that we can’t stand to look at pictures of the mutilated babies, should we really tolerate it? You see, without the pictures, we can easily go about our ordinary business and forget that we allow 1,200,000 baby girls and boy per year in the US, 88,000 in Florida, and 1,000 in St Lucie County to be brutally murdered. Without the pictures, it’s easy to forget that we allow the shedding of the blood of more than 52,000,000 preborn children in America while we go to work, school, church, play, etc. Without the pictures, it’s easy to forget that the prosperity that we have enjoyed since abortion became legal has been earned by ignoring the precious children who were fearfully and wonderfully made in the secret places of their mother’s womb yet face the threat of death by abortion. (See Psalm 139.) How long can we expect God to withhold His judgment from America? How many more babies can we possibly kill before our land will vomit us forth as Canaan did to the Canaanites? How many more babies will we allow to be ripped limb from limb before we see “the great and dreadful day of the Lord” (Malachi 4:5) as Israel experienced because Manasseh, “filled Jerusalem from one end to another” with innocent blood. (2 Kings 2:16.)

For post abortive women and men, we have one message: full confession leads to full forgiveness and healing that can only come through Jesus Christ. And the children who see these pictures see clearly what should be done: stop the killing! Our message is clear: It’s time for abortion to end! We’ve waited 37 for incremental legislative approaches to stop abortion. 52,000,000 babies later, we realize that they have failed! True, we have made progress, but the killing continues. We’re here to say: Abortion will end in America, and we’re going to make history by ending abortion in Florida and protecting every innocent human life! Will you join us on the streets?


Matthew 10:26 – “Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.”
Matthew 5:14 – “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.”
Ephesians 5:11-12 – “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.”

Join me in shining the light of Jesus Christ to expose sin, offer forgiveness to post-abortive women and men, and to protect innocent human life.
