When You Became You – Added January 2021 When You Became You is a colorfully-illustrated, prolife children’s book which is a must read for parents who have young children. In the words of the authors, Brooke Stanton and Christiane West, “Teaching little children when life begins is not only vital to helping them understand the morality of life issues, it’s also fundamental in fighting progressive ideology taught to children in schools.” (Source: Pro-Life Children’s Book “When You Became You” Teaches Kids That Life Begins at Conception) When You Became You is available directly from the publisher, Mascot Books, here, as well as Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, and Amazon Reviewed by Anne O'Meara Image: Mascot Books

O God,   make us willing to do your will,   come what may. Increase the number of persons  of good will and moral sensitivity.  Give us renewed confidence in nonviolence  and the way of love as taught by Christ. – Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968)

HALO MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Healthcare Advocacy and Leadership Organization is to promote, protect, and advocate for the rights of the medically vulnerable through direct patient and family interactions; through community education and awareness programs; and through promotion and development of concrete *"life-affirming healthcare"* alternatives for those facing the grave consequences of healthcare rationing and unethical practices, especially those at risk of euthanasia and assisted suicide.

*"Life-affirming healthcare" is defined as medical care in which the paramount principle is the sanctity of life, which means that the life and safety of each person come first and each person receives medical care across their lifespan based on their need for care and never with an intention to hasten death, regardless of their abilities or perceived "quality of life."
