The mission of All Girls Allowed is to restore life, value, and dignity to girls and mothers, and to reveal the injustice of China’s One-Child Policy.  Since 1980, the implementation of China’s One-Child Policy has led to female gendercide, abandonment of daughters, child trafficking and violations of women’s reproductive rights.  Through education, advocacy, strategic partnerships, and legal defense, All Girls Allowed strives to:  EXPOSE the truth about the One-Child Policy and mobilize the global community to advocate against the cruel methods used to enforce the One-Child Policy.  RESCUE victims of the One-Child Policy through four programs:      Ending Gendercide – Educating families against female gendercide and providing monthly stipends that ease the burden of having a baby girl.     Educating Abandoned Girls – Providing scholarships for abandoned girls to receive primary, secondary and post-secondary education.     Rescuing Trafficked Children – Resourcing parents to find their kidnapped children through an online search database and search & rescue campaigns.     Defending Mothers – Providing legal defense to forced abortion victims as well as mothers who are in danger of forced abortion or forced sterilization.  CELEBRATE the work of God in bringing life, value and dignity to girls and mothers.  – All Girls Allowed

NOTE: I missed a “7″, in 1.877.777.1277 The Sisters of Life is a contemplative / active religious community of women founded in 1991 by John Cardinal O’Connor for the protection and enhancement of the sacredness of every human life. Like all religious communities, we take the three traditional vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. We also are consecrated under a special, fourth vow to protect and enhance the sacredness of human life.

Reverence and gratitude for the unique and unrepeatable gift of each human life made in the image and likeness of God fuels the prayer of each Sister, our first mission in building the Kingdom of God and the “Culture of Life.” It also provides the starting point for our interactions with others, especially relationships in community between our 70 Sisters (who come from across the United States, Canada and New Zealand), and in our apostolates.

Inspired by the love of Christ our Spouse, the author of Life, we desire to pour out all our gifts of nature and grace in the apostolate, that nothing of the gift of life, and no one to whom it has been given, should be lost.

Our missions are carried out with the heart of the Church and with the hope of revealing to those we serve the inherent goodness and beauty of their own lives, so that each person may see and experience the truth that they are an unrepeatable creation of the Master. – http://sistersoflife.org/

Ave Maria!

The last time AirMaria interviewed Lila Rose was a few months before she entered the One True Church, the Catholic Church. Here we are again with Lila three years later.

For those of you that are new to Lila, here is a little info about her from the Live Action website.

Lila Rose, a recent UCLA graduate, has dedicated herself to building a culture of life and ending abortion. At age fifteen, Lila founded Live Action, a pro-life nonprofit which specializes in investigative journalism, media and youth education. Live Action works to expose abuses in the abortion industry and advocate for human rights for the pre-born, using new media to educate and mobilize both local and national audiences. Live Action also hosts the leading social media presence for the pro-life movement. Lila currently serves as President.     Lila has led numerous undercover investigations exposing corruption and illegal activity at Planned Parenthood, the nation’s biggest abortion chain. Her work has documented rampant sexual abuse cover up, racism, medical misinformation, the willingness to assist sex traffickers, and false statements made by Planned Parenthood executives.     As a freshman at UCLA, Lila founded the pro-life student magazine The Advocate. The Advocate is now the largest pro-life student publication in the country, distributed at over 300 high school and college campuses with a circulation of 200,000.     Lila is a frequent guest on radio and television programs, including The O’Reilly Factor, The Glenn Beck Show, CNN, EWTN, and The Laura Ingraham Show. Numerous newspapers and blogs have also covered her work, including feature pieces by Reuters, the LA Times, the Wall Street Journal, Washington Times, and National Review. CNN featured Lila in a documentary, “Right on the Edge.” Lila has written for magazines and news groups including Politico, the Hill and First Things.
