Thank you!

We want to send a heartfelt thank you for the incredible outreach for the Clouse family who lost seven children in a house fire.  We had posted ways to help and benefits on our blog and the SUN Area Council of Republican Women took donations.  The outreach was tremendous.  Currently they are overwhelmed with donations and help.  It is wonderful to see such support.

SUNACRW and RWRG join together to help Clouse Family

SUN Area Council of Republican Women is collecting donations of non-perishable food items, consumable household products and retail gift cards for the Ted and Janelle Clouse family who lost 7 of their children in a devastating farmhouse fire on Wednesday evening in rural Perry County.

In addition SUNACRW is partnering with our sister council, Perry County Republican Women for Responsible Government, to provide meals for the farm and cleanup crews in the next weeks and hold a fundraising event.

Anyone who would like to donate items may contact Carolyn Conner at 570-768-6862 or Irene Harris at 570-374-0876.

A Doctor’s Wisdom

A worried woman went to her gynecologist and said: ‘Doctor, I have a serious pro…blem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even one year old, and I’m pregnant again. I don’t want kids so close together.’

So the doctor said: ‘Ok and what do you want me to do?’

She said: ‘I want you to end my pregnancy, and I’m counting on your help with this.’

The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady: ‘I think I have a better solution for your problem. It’s less dangerous for you too.’ She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.

Then he continued: ‘You see, in order for you not to have to take care of 2 babies at the same time, let’s kill the one in your arms. This way, you could rest some before the other one is born. If we’re going to kill one of them, it doesn’t matter which one it is. There would be no risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms.’

The lady was horrified and said: ‘No doctor! How terrible! It’s a crime to kill a child!’

‘I agree’, the doctor replied. ‘But you seemed to be OK with it, so I thought maybe that was the best solution.’

The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point. He convinced the mom that There is no difference in killing a child that’s already been born and one that’s still in the womb. The crime is the same!

A message from Howard McKenzie, Founder of Susquehanna Valley Moral Issues Coalition – Where to find information about candidates

Dear Friends,

This is an important election—please inform yourselves and vote for candidates most closely representing traditional moral values. DO NOT STAY HOME FROM THE POLLS!

I recommend:

(1) Pennsylvania Family Council’s voter guide (www.pafamily.org)

designed for    distribution in churches without violating non-profit

guidelines.

(2) The PA Family Institute’s online interactive voter guide (www.PaFamilyVoter.com or http://www.focusvoter.com/PA).

(3) The American Family Association of PA website resources (http://afaofpa.org).

I did not produce our usual voter guide because of increased time away for work and major illness in the immediate family with long term ramifications. I have enjoyed researching candidates’ positions to inform you, even though it has been very time intensive.  Thankfully more information than ever before is now readily available from solid pro-family organizations. We will leave our website up, possibly indefinitely, so you can use its links to many morally conservative resources. Be informed, be involved, and be true to America’s founding principles. God bless you!

Rev. Howard R. McKenzie, Th.B., M.A.
