Celebrating 25 years

Silent Voices is celebrating 25 years of service to women and children in San Diego County! As part of our celebration, and to raise additional support for the ministry, we are holding a fund-raising banquet on Friday, September 25th. All of our International Directors will be in San Diego at that time - this would be a great way to meet them!

Miles McPherson from The Rock will be our Speaker.

We are in need of businesses and individuals to underwrite the costs of the banquet so that everyone who attends can do so for free.

We also need people to step up and serve as Table Hosts - there is no cost involved - Table Hosts simply ask 6-7 of their friends to attend this event. If you'd like more information about the banquet - how you can help - or how you can attend - please call 619-422-0757 or email!

"QUOTES"

“There are few better tests for whether or not someone lives a life in submission to God than what he or she does with their sexuality. Sex is such a powerful and meaningful desire that to give it up and obey God in that area is a true sign of worship.”

“Women never before were able to think about genetic motherhood without pregnancy, or pregnancy without genetic motherhood; if we were biological mothers (carrying babies), then we were genetic mothers. But making the inseparable separate is what the technology of reproduction is all about. And it is this issue that we are now facing: women, for the first time, have the potential for genetic parenthood without physiologic motherhood. At all. No pregnancy. No birth. No suckling. Women are about to become fathers.”

Barbara Katz Rothman
professor of sociology at the
City University of New York.

“When a man has fathered a child and that child’s life is terminated by the unnatural and violent act of abortion, a destructive chain reaction silently begins in that man’s life.”

Guy Condon
Fatherhood Aborted

“And now I want to turn to the man who asserts or believes that we are initiated by the murder and the blood of a little child. Can you think it possible that such a tender, tiny body should be gashed with mortal woulds, that any man alive would slaughter a little baby hardly come into being, to pill, drain and drink its innocent blood? Nobody can believe such a thing unless he is capable of doing it himself. Bud I do see people among you (the heathen) at times expose newly born children to wild beasts and birds, and at other times put them to death by strangling or other horrible means. Some women destroy the unborn child in their womb by taking drugs, thus committing infanticide before they are delivered. To us it is not even permissible to see or hear of murder!”

"Then on January 22, 1973, as I was driving through Chicago, I heard a radio announcer say, 'The Supreme Court of the United States has today legalized abortion on demand.' . . . Since that day I have felt lonely and troubled in my own country. I f I had acted purely on my emotions, I would have left. I really wanted out. How can one live in a country where this is happening? Can one be an innocent bystander at killing? . . . I want to cry out, 'Is anyone there? Does anyone see what I see? Does anyone care?'"

John Powell, S.J.
author of The Silent Holocaust.

"That office, in a building I hadn't even noticed for many years, was where I had taken my new bride for an abortion one blistering day in 1952. . . . I have found myself wondering what that first one would have been like. A boy or a girl? Blond or brunette? A problem or a delight? Whatever kind of person the lost one might have been, I feel even now that we had no right to take its life. Religion has nothing to do with that feeling. It was a 'gut' response that overwhelmed me while stalled in the traffic that afternoon at Beverly and Vermont."

Bill Stout
Television commentator.

"Even though a woman may intellectually understand God's love for her and her right in His eyes to be healed because of that love, that is not the essence nor the totality of the healing. Healing brings integration and restoration. It is a time when the head and the heart come together. What is believed in the mind is felt and grasped in the heart. It is a time when the woman is finally able to give herself permission to feel good again....The time of healing brings a sense of inner peace and a profound yet gentle feeling of being forgiven. The past is not forgotten but it is overshadowed and put in perspective by the deeper reality of the Father's love. It is a time when the woman allows God to be God and His will to replace her own. Divine love replaces self condemnation. ...The broken woman is no longer broken. She is no longer a slave and in bondage to her impulsive need for self-punishment. The woman now realizes that she has no right to condemn herself if God has forgiven her."
