The Red Envelope Project

Have you heard of The Red Envelope Project yet?  Pure genius!  Simple, direct and profound.  If you want to know more about how it started click on the link above, but here is all you have to do to be involved:

1.  Get a red envelope (or two or three…or 100!).  You can buy them at Kinkos or Party supply stores, and here is a link where you can buy 100 for just $13!

2.  On the front address it to: 

President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W.
Washington, D.C.
20500

3.  On the back write the following message:  This envelope represents one child who died in abortion. It is empty because that life was unable to offer anything to the world. Responsibility begins with conception.

4.  Put it in the mail on March 31st.  And let others know about this project!  Hopefully, 50 million will be sent, one for each life that has ended in abortion since Roe v. Wade. 

I can’t help but imagine what the President will be thinking and feeling as these red envelopes start coming in!  Will he be angry?  Annoyed?  Convicted?  Indifferent?  Regardless of his reaction, our president’s very glib attitude towards the unborn, needs to be confronted with the truth of what abortion really is.  It is not a personal choice or simply “ending a pregnancy.”  It is violently and cruelly taking another person’s life.  Yes, this man who has so flippantly stated that ”it is above his pay grade” to discuss the lives of the unborn truly needs a wake-up call.  He can hit the snooze button if he wants to, but somebody has to set that alarm clock!  (Ezekiel 2:3-7)

And, seriously? …Your pay grade, Mr. President?  Your PAY GRADE?!!  Appalling.
