Amsterdam-Biblical Family Advocates is pleased to announce the profound blessings associated with the efforts of the United for Life conference sponsored by Schreeeuw om Leven, (Cry for Life), Netherlands, that brought together pro life advocates from at least 7 Countries.
The conference delegates, from India, Holland, Belgium, Russia, Hungary, USA and Germany came together not only to network their intentions and visions, but also to go to many places of international interest. These international delegates went to the European Union in Brussels, in which they were not only briefed by a representative of the European Commission, but were also able to have an intercessory prayer gathering on behalf of the EU and its leadership at the entrance gat of the European Parliament. Additionally, efforts were made to contact the Dutch Parliament in The Hague, within its own courts and buildings with the message of life and publicly praying for their leadership to encourage the Dutch Parliament to stand up for the rights of the unborn and consider the tragic effects of abortion on women.
One of most profound moments was the revealing of thousands of signed affidavits’ by women who had been injured by abortion. These documents of sworn testimony was assembled by attorney’s Allan Parker and Clayton Trotter of the Justice Foundation USA, www.txjf.org, and was given to those associated with the Dutch Parliament, in the foyer of Dutch assembly building as well as at a historic church, Noorderkerk Church, gathering in which Dutch Parliament member Dr. Bas J. van der Vlies was given the volumes of heart felt testimony of women wounded by abortion.
Present at these events were many courageous women from Holland and the USA who had themselves undergone the abortion procedure and have suffered the horrendous effects of abortion. They are part of the Justice Foundation’s project Operation Outcry/Silent No More in which the largest body of testimonies has been assembled in the world regarding the effects of abortion on women. Centered prominently in these tragic effects is the need for churches to proclaim that abortion is a grave sin, but also proclaim the forgiveness of Christ to help break the cycle of abortion, in which 50 million children are killed world wide every year. This church event had followed the remarkable gathering of hundreds of peaceful pro life advocates who marched in downtown Amsterdam
Pastor John Ebenezar from India said that female infanticide was commonplace in India and challenged pro life Christians to respond to this crisis. Vishal Mangalwadi, from India/Hollywood, whose scholarly work regarding the Bibles profound impact on western civilization was met with great interest from the largest media service in the Netherlands, the Evangelical Voradvasting Company (EO). “It was simply amazing how many opportunities were afforded to us in the Netherlands and Belgium in which we were praying constantly at many gatherings as well as becoming part of the political process by spiritual advocacy.” So says Phil Magnan Director of Biblical Family Advocates. “It is our hope to continue this fine work of bringing many different countries together on the issues of life with the understanding that many forms of ministry are needed to completely address the ongoing war on the unborn and those men and women involved in it. We found out that we have a lot of friends who have the same conviction to stop the atrocity of abortion.”

To international pro-life workers and supporters
This letter is the request to support the Dutch Pro-life
organization ‘Schreeuw om Leven’.
The organization ‘Schreeuw om Leven’ presided by Bert and Willy
Dorenbos, is under unjust criticism by women, who were hurt by abortion
and used to come for counseling to ‘Schreeuw om Leven’.
During many years, Pro-life studies the problem of traumatic
consequences of abortion. This situation shows that it is far not
completely studied. The lies we hear about the Dorenbos couple,
demonstrate to us that we need to take serious measures for dealing with
psychological disorders of those women.
We see the realistic threat that not only the Dutch organization
‘Schreeuw om Leven’ today but the entire pro-life movement tomorrow can
be undermined and come to collapse.
We are concerned with the possibility that the campaign may be begun in
media, trying to discredit ‘Schreeuw om Leven’ in its
charitable, political, financial and other activities.
‘Schreeuw om Leven’ is surviving the hard times. They have already
overcome many of those before, with God’s help.
If we do not stay indifferent, if we support ‘Schreeuw om Leven’
by writing letters of support and helping financially, the Lord will
strengthen the entire Pro-Life movement. If we remain silent, we all
become liable to enemy’s assault, one by one.
If you wish to support ‘Schreeuw om Leven’, please join our group.
‘This is what the Lord says –
Your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb:
I am the Lord,
Who has made all things,
Who alone stretched out the heavens,
Who spread out the earth by myself,
Who folds the signs of false prophets
And makes fools of diviners,
Who overthrows the learning of the wise
And turns it into nonsense,
Who carries out the words of his servants and fulfills the predictions
of his messengers,
Who says if Jerusalem, ‘It shall be inhabited’,
Of the towns of Judah, ‘They shall be built,’
And of their ruins, ‘I will restore them’.
(Isaiah 44: 24 – 26)
