Pastors' Report

Strong/Golisano Childrens Hospital- It is a usual occurance while we are holding our educational picket at this "revered" hospital and university medical center. "They do abortions here!?" It is hard to fathom that a hospital and teaching medical center will allow the abortionist within its walls to kill the same age child that other doctors are heroically laboring to save in aother area of the hospital. Just this past week we were able to pray with a mom whose son was in PICU, The Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. She was taking a break outside on the sidewalk where our picket was occuring. The love of Jesus was shared and we prayed together for her son. The next week a young man was outside having a smoke. He was hooked up to his IV and declaring that he is a fighter and will never give into the sickness that was ravaging his body. We asked if we could pray for him and our daughter began to pray and ask the Lord to bless him. The opportunities to witness and to minister are always present. Strong is a behemoth. Now the largest employer in the Rochester area and a sponge that sucks up millions of dollars of NYS funds. Strong embraces the abortion mindset, has euthanasia advocates on the medical staff and seeks to pioneer embronic stem cell research in its state of the art Medical Research Wing.

Highland Hospital - Highland Hospital now belongs to the Strong Health Care medical juggernaut. Rescue Rochester has a presence their 2 times per week. This hospital sits across from an elementary school on South Avenue. South Ave Women's Services is the clinic associated with this hospital. The hospital has moved the 5th floor abortion clinic, first to the 3rd floor, and now to the Doctors Office Building in front of the hospital. The address listed for South Ave Women's Services and the instructions given on their web site links this abortion clinic right with The Highland Hospital. A baby friendly place? I think not.

Dr. Morris Wortman’s Abortion Clinic – Located in the prosperous Rochester suburb of Brighton, New York the beautifully landscaped grounds and the modern and inviting building belay the killing of the innocent children that occurs inside. Morris Wortman is pursuing an aggressive TV ad campaign, seeking to remake his image. He has stated that abortion is not his main focus of practice. Yet, his web site devotes much space and effort to sell this product. He also advertises through the Yellow Pages but in Rochester and outlying communities.

Continue to pray for this man that he would turn completely toward the Lord in repentance and be converted just as John Newton the infamous slave trader was brought from death to life. And in testimony gave us the hymn, "Amazing Grace."

Medical Center on Lattimore Road & The Freedom of Choice Clinic – This medical center is located three blocks from The Strong/Golisano Children’s Hospital. It houses numerous pediatricians and family practices but also is used an abortion providing facility. The Freedom of Choice Clinic is housed on the second floor.
