Right to Life believes that as we conclude our Lenten practices and devotions of prayer, fasting and almsgiving, we should remember that our brothers and sisters who suffer abortion share in the Passion and death of Christ with their rejection, abandonment, and sufferings.
God our Creator calls upon all humankind to share in the passion and death of Christ, in reparation for the sins of the human race.
Let us weep with the innocent unborn, who through their sufferings and deaths, make reparation for the sins of those who have murdered them, and for the silence of the community that pretends not to hear their silent screams.
The preborn children murdered in their mother’s wombs do not die alone, for their Creator is with them to comfort them and to suffer with them.
Baptism is necessary for salvation and for eternal glory and happiness.
Right to Life believes that unborn children who are aborted are baptised in their blood. Their deaths give witness to the word of God, “Thou shalt not kill.”
All unborn children murdered in their mother’s womb are companion martyrs of the Holy innocents, murdered by King Herod in Jerusalem over 2000 years ago.
Right to Life believes that the souls of these preborn martyrs are escorted from their mother’s womb, by the child’s guardian angel and by choirs of the angelic host, to heaven to enjoy eternal happiness and glory.
There is a provisional total of 17,123 preborn children, who were violently and painfully poisoned, sucked out of their mother’s wombs or dismembered in New Zealand in 2024. The state denied their humanity and inalienable right to life conferred on them at conception by their Creator, and killed them as a health service and treated their bodily remains as medical waste.
Right to Life encourages mothers and fathers who are grieving over the loss of their precious child in an abortion, to be comforted with the knowledge that their child is now at peace and enjoying eternal happiness with their Creator in heaven. Each one of these children was a unique and unrepeatable miracle of God’s loving creation endowed at conception with an immortal soul and destined for eternal life.
Recognition of the children’s martyrdom should encourage us to recognise that the denial of their inalienable right to life, and the murder of God’s precious infants and the wounding of their precious mothers is the most pressing breach of human rights of this era.
