WASHINGTON, March 17 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Christian Defense Coalition is mobilizing scores to turn out and send a clear message to the President that abortion is not health care and public funds should not be used to crush human life.
 
The group is telling people to get there early and bring, signs, banners and posters declaring health care should be about healing and compassion not killing and brutality.
 
The doors open for the Patriot Center at 9:00 A.M. but the pro-life community is being told to get there several hours early to get a front row seat.
 
Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney, Director of the Christian Defense Coalition, states,
 
"This Friday it is imperative that the pro-life and faith community send a clear message to President Obama that abortion is not health care.  It is essential that we be a prophetic witness for life and justice and challenge the President to embrace human rights.
 
"For the next several days, we will be using every tool possible to mobilize thousands to speak out against tax dollars being used to fund abortions.  Our message is clear: Abortion is Not Health Care and public monies should not be used to kill children.
 
"Kill the bill...not children."
