When we learned in June about the new Planned Parenthood mega abortion center being built in Bakersfield, we began going to Bakersfield City Council meetings, asking the Council to do something to stop this killing center.

At first we didn’t know what the Council could do — but we asked them to do something anyway. When the City Attorney claimed that the Council was powerless, God led us to learn more about the City’s powers, which resulted in the proposed Human Life Ordinance. Eventually dozens of pastors appealed to the Council to protect human life, while the City Attorney claimed again that the matter was “not in the City’s purview.” Over the course of the past few months, the Human Life Ordinance was edited several times to protect the City from litigation, and re-presented to the Council for their consideration.

The story is far from over. Perhaps if you take an hour or so to watch these pastors, nurses, students, and others submit their appeals to the Council, you will find God leading you to become a part of this historic story.

Teresita Herrera chose the name Miracle for her little girl who was born on December 7. Miracle has lived up to her name. Several months ago, Teresita was told that her baby would die because she had not developed a skull. But as of this morning, Miracle is still alive and at home with her family, having been released from the hospital over the weekend.

Throughout her pregnancy, Teresita has continued interceding outside Bakersfield’s FPA abortion chamber for the lives of the children who are being killed there, and for their mothers.

Update: After spending several weeks at home with her loving family, Miracle passed away on December 28. Visitation will be January 3 from 4-7 pm at Greenlawn Southwest, Panama Lane at Freeway 99. Friday January 4 at 10 am a Mass for baby Miracle will be held at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, 601 E. California Ave.

For the past three months, the Bakersfield City Council has learned repeatedly that many local citizens, including dozens of pastors, oppose the new Planned Parenthood mega abortion center which is being completed at 2633 16th Street. But at the September 12 City Council meeting, Bakersfield City Attorney Ginny Gennaro tried to “put the matter to bed” before the Council ever had the opportunity to vote on a proposal related to the controversy. While some are apparently growing weary of hearing the concerns of the pro-life community, Gennaro’s attempt to settle the matter appeared to be disingenuous.

Planned Parenthood Mar Monte is planning to begin aborting babies in Bakersfield soon!  Without hiding their identity or their deadly intentions, the nation’s largest abortion profiteer has been obtaining permits from the City of Bakersfield for months, reportedly being assured that “no public hearing” will be held.  But it’s not too late for you to make your voice heard in this local life-and-death battle!

Earlier this month, a builder came to the Family Planning Associates abortion center to inform Terri Palmquist of the construction of the new Planned Parenthood “mega” abortion center — over 10,000 square feet — a few blocks west of Mercy Hospital, across the street from a residential area.  The new location is about a block west of the existing Planned Parenthood office, where abortions have apparently never been committed, although abortion referrals have frequently occurred.

Christian builder halts work

Terri learned that the contractor responsible for putting up the walls of the abortion center was a local Christian known for his ministry involvement, so Terri and Tim Palmquist met with the contractor to ask him not to participate in the building of this killing center.  Read more »

Many years ago, Terri Palmquist envisioned a new kind of housing ministry for needy pregnant women. Over the past few weeks, doors have begun to open to help bring that vision closer to reality.

While seeking housing arrangements for a client (“Lori,” whose baby was saved during 40 Days for Life), Terri learned that the property she had been hoping to use for housing pregnant women is now available. After working out some logistics with the property owner, Terri began informing some LifeSavers Ministries volunteers of the need. Arrangements were quickly made for property cleanup, repairs, and helping Lori move in. Terri has dubbed the facility “Hawaiian Gardens.” Lori moves in today!

After hearing from concerned citizens at every City Council meeting for the past three months, it appears that the Bakersfield City Council may finally be willing to take action regarding the new parking restrictions at 25th and H Streets which were imposed at the request of the FPA abortion chamber staff to interfere with our ministry outreaches.

Councilmember Jacquie Sullivan

When Terri and Tim Palmquist shared their concerns at last night’s City Council meeting, Councilmember Jacquie Sullivan requested that the matter be submitted to a committee. During the discussion which ensued, Sullivan agreed to come back to the Council at the next meeting with a specific proposal narrowing the issue which is to be sent to a committee. The committee may be one of the existing Council committees, but at last night’s Council meeting the possibility of establishing a special ad hoc committee for the purpose of addressing this issue was presented.
