HOW YOUR CHURCH CAN HELP PROTECT PREBORN LIVES IN FLORIDA
Did you know that almost 3.5 million preborn human lives have been terminated in Florida since 1973?
Their website states their objective of…
“…creating a constitutional amendment that explicitly blocks the implementation of laws that prohibit, delay, or restrict abortion access.”
If approved by Florida voters, this amendment would allow for…
How do we combat this and put LIFE on the ballot?
THE BEST DEFENSE IS A GOOD OFFENSE
The Human Life Protection Amendment seeks to protect ALL preborn lives in the state of Florida.
Ballot Summary:
“An amendment recognizing the God-given right to life of the preborn individual. Defines “preborn individual” as a preborn human person at any stage of development. Affirms that life-saving procedures to save the life of the mother shall not be construed as a violation when accompanied by reasonable steps to save the life of the preborn individual. To be added to the Declaration of Rights under Article I of the Florida Constitution.”
To qualify OUR lifesaving amendment for ballot placement in 2024, we need to secure 891,523 signed and validated petitions from registered voters across the state of Florida by February 1, 2024.
According to a 2022 Gallup poll, there are at least 4 million Florida voters who would likely sign our petition without hesitation, if it were presented to them.
And we need less than a million signatures from life-minded Florida voters in order to get on the ballot.
So, what’s our greatest challenge?
Simply getting our petition in front of these likely signers.
And where are they?

In thousands of churches across the state, with millions of voters who would sign our petition without hesitation, if they were simply made aware of it.
YOUR CHURCH IS
ONE OF THEM.
Will you make an impact for life?
BELOW ARE SOME RESOURCES TO ASSIST IN YOUR EFFORTS
Here are some ways that Florida churches have engaged in our initiative.
Your engagement is critical
In 2022, there were 82,581 preborn lives terminated in our state. Recent legislative efforts have now been enacted to protect more than half of all these vulnerable lives, but these efforts now stand in jeopardy if the petition campaign to “put abortion on the ballot” in 2024 succeeds.
If our amendment is on the ballot there as well, it will at least serve to split the vote, protecting the legislative efforts and preventing the loss of tens of thousands of additional preborn lives.
At best, Florida voters will approve our amendment, rescuing those that remain unprotected by current legislation, and thereby protecting ALL preborn lives.
But neither of these will be an option without your engagement.
Are you with us?
RESCUE THOSE WHO ARE BEING TAKEN AWAY TO DEATH; HOLD BACK THOSE WHO ARE STUMBLING TO THE SLAUGHTER.
