Underground Railroad - Oregon Cove

As with other times in our history, when calamities have arisen, kind people all over our country are offering to provide shelter to women seeking abortions, but who cannot obtain them, safely and legally, in their own state.  

One thing that is desperately needed to make this mission of mercy work are organizations to connect women needing to find lodging in a state that allows this vital service, with those who will open their homes during her visit.    

Oregon Cove was founded just last Friday, in Portland, Oregon.  If you, or somebody you know is from elsewhere, and have come to Oregon seeking abortion services, please contact them.  If you have an extra room in your home, and in your heart to host a traveler in need, please contact them.  oregoncove@gmail.com 

This is just one piece of the puzzle … a very short, early length of the Underground Railroad that must be built.  It is one of the first steps that begins the journey of a thousand miles.

Kids and Guns

At times like this, it is natural to want to hug our children, with a mixture of pure love, and apprehension that they might be taken from us.  

But for some, there is an unnatural desire to hug their guns, and hold them close, with the same mixture of love, and paranoia that they will be taken from them.
