Pro-Life Heroine Linda Gibbons Still In Prison — Please Consider Sending A Christmas Card

Linda Gibbons was arrested on Jan.20 for attempting to speak with women entering the Scott abortion facility in Toronto. She's been in prison since then. This is yet another Christmas Linda is going to spend away from home. Her total accumulated jail time is seven years Please consider sending her a Christmas card; that will encourage her and to let her know that she isn’t forgotten.

Vanier Centre for Women
655 Martin St., Box 1040
Milton, ON L9T 5E6
Also, please consider participating in a special prayer for Linda's appeal:
Let’s show Hell some of our Prayer Power by joining together at the same time on Dec. 10th at 10:30 a.m.. Please set your cell phones, alarms, whatever to stop what you’re doing and ask for a victory. Linda’s appeal is set for December 10th from 10:30 to approx.12:00 at Osgoode Hall – 130 Queen St. W (at University). We will be doing Show the Truth from 8:15 to 10:30 outside Osgoode Hall along University Avenue. God bless. Please pray for Linda, her lawyer Dan Santoro and the three judges hearing the case.
Update: Here are a few "do"s and "don't"s to remember when sending a Christmas card to Linda:
1. Don’t use stickers (address, return address, pro-life) on the envelope or card.

2. Don’t send any laminated cards, bookmarks, prayer cards, pro-life pamphlets. Non-laminated items will get to her.

3. Don’t ask direct questions about daily activity of the detention centre.

4. Put your address directly in the card or letter. (Sometimes the mail sorter keeps the envelope and Linda feels badly if she can’t write back.)

5. If you would like to send a little monetary gift to Linda it must be a money order made out to “Linda Gibbons”. The detention centre will deposit the money directly to her account. She uses any donations for envelopes and stamps.

6. Many people add a variety of Christian reading material in their mailings to her. She often shares articles with others in the Centre. She can receive pro-life material that show the development of the baby but not post abortion photos. She can’t receive books. Try to stick to one or two pages of reading materials or pamphlets.
