NRL News
A Great
Resource Waiting for You This is one of my favorite times of the year. The hot summer weather is cooling off, people are hastening to get that last trip in before the pace of life perceptively picks up, and we are making sure everyone is aware of the wonderful resources NRLC has available for them as school is about to begin. On page 22, Joe Landrum provides you a very nice overview of the excellent books, pamphlets, and factsheets NRLC’s Education Department has for you either free or at minimum cost. And on page 24, Joe provides a helpful tour of NRLC’s outstanding webpage. And no summary, however brief, should ignore NRLC’s daily feature, Today’s News & Views. You can sign up to automatically receive TN&V Monday through Friday by going to www.nrlc.org. But most of all we want to make sure that we start the new school year off right by getting NRL News into as many new hands as possible. Obviously, every pro-lifer should have his or her individual copy. And even in the age of the Internet, many, many high school and college libraries carry the “right to life newspaper of record” on their shelves. What I am proposing is a genuine win-win—to persuade our faithful readers to give a NRL News gift subscription to individuals and libraries and in return we send along a great pro-life resource. Many of you have favorably commented on a review I wrote of Surprise Child: Finding Hope in Unexpected Pregnancy. In my judgment, it is no exaggeration to say that Leslie Leyland Fields’ book is a small classic. Her account of her last two pregnancies that occurred when Leslie was in her 40s, and those of more than 30 other women who were pregnant in very difficult circumstances, is beautifully written, unblinkingly realistic, and deeply inspirational. Send NRL News a check for two gift subscriptions—$20—along with the names and addresses of the two lucky people and I will send you a copy of Surprise Child the same day. This is a great bargain. The book retails for $11.99. I purchased these books on faith, confident that I could count on our faithful readers to recognize the importance of gift subscriptions and to reading Surprise Child: Finding Hope in Unexpected Pregnancy. All you need to do is fill out the form below and sent it along with a check for $20 made out to NRL News. Thank you in advance for your help. You’ll be glad you did. |
