HealthPartners’ Clinic
Campaign
The 40 Days for Life Twin Cities campaign
has focused on HealthPartners’ Regions Hospital. The truth
of HealthPartners’ and abortion now needs to be shared in
front its’ clinics in the Metro area.
Why? Most HealthPartners’ members
do not get their health care at Regions Hospital.
They are unaware
that HealthPartners’ Regions Hospital has a dedicated abortion
facility within Regions Hospital, which HealthPartners owns and
operates, and their medical premiums are supporting an HMO that
kills children up to 20 weeks!
Bringing this truth to neighborhood
clinics will help to convince more HealthPartners’ members
to write Mary Brainerd, HealthPartners’ CEO, the board of
directors and demand that HealthPartners get out of the abortion
business completely. By proclaiming the truth we can recruit more
prayer warriors to pray for the end of abortion at Regions Hospital.
By proclaiming the truth we can encourage pro-life employees of
HealthPartners to stand up for life in their workplace and let
them know they are not alone!
This effort will be a prayerful and
peaceful presentation of the truth at neighborhood HealthPartners’ clinics.
You will not have to sidewalk counsel. You only have to stand on
a public sidewalk or right of way and pray, hold a sign, and give
out informational literature.
Please review the schedule below
and decide which clinic you will join us at. Contact us if you
plan to participate and watch your email for updates about transportation,
how to get signs/brochures and where to stand. Thank you for your
participation, working together with other caring believers, “Stopping
Abortion One Life at a Time”.
In Him,

Progress Report and Action Items
Information Distributions and Rallies
Things
are continuing to heat up with HealthPartners.
Since beginning our efforts in November 2006, there have been information
distributions
at 13 HealthPartners
clinics around the Twin Cities. Thousands of brochures exposing
HealthPartners have been distributed to patients and employees
at these clinics. Thousands of others have seen the large placards
as they have driven past these clinics during these distributions.
The effectiveness of this type of activity is amazing.
Petition Drive
Petitions are
available through our office or as a PDF
file which can be sent via email.
A great way to get a large number of petitions signed is to have a petition
signing Sunday at your church.
We
can provide
all the
petitions
necessary
and brochures explaining HealthPartners involvement in abortion. Petitions
have been presented to HealthPartners at their annual
meeting.
We will continue to cllect signatures and testimonies and will present
these to HelthPartners on future occasions. Please spread the word about
our petition!
Boycott HealthPartners
We have heard
from many who have switched their health coverage away from HealthPartners.
If you are in a position to make a change, we strongly encourage you
to do so. But please make sure you clearly communicate to HealthPartners
the
reason
for leaving and that you would be willing to return should they close
the abortuary at Regions Hospital. If you cannot make a change, please
communicate
to HealthPartners your desire to leave and their need to close the abortuary
at Regions.
Call, Write, Email
Please continue
