Roe v. Wade lawyers are working on the appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court
The following information was put out by the Justice Foundation, which is representing Norma McCorvey in her petition to overturn Roe v. Wade. The petition will be presented to the Supreme Court by January 17, 2005. Most expect the Supreme Court will agree to hear the case. Then they will have to decide it between January and June, 2005. 31 years of abortion on demand in this country could end within the next 6 months.
Please read below to understand the facts and discern your specific prayers.

Dear Intercessory Prayer Warriors:
RE: Roe v. Wade Goes Back to Supreme Court!
Prayer Alert!
Roe v. Wade Back to the U.S. Supreme Court
Norma McCorvey, the former "Roe" of Roe v. Wade never had an abortion. She worked in abortion clinics from approximately 1992 to 1995. Her conscience began bothering her as she faced the harsh truth of abortion which is the destruction of women, children, men and families. In 1995, she became a born-again Christian and later joined the Roman Catholic Church. Now she has filed a Rule 60 Motion to vacate and reverse Roe v. Wade. Represented by The Justice Foundation (www.operationoutcry**********), her Petition to the U.S. Supreme Court will be filed on or about January 17, 2005.
Her lawyers are working on the appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court until then, after which the Court will consider whether to hear the case. This is the time for the whole body of Christ to unite in prayer for the end of the covenant with death that is Roe v. Wade.
Please join us in praying for the following:
1. The Lord's direction, instruction, counsel, wisdom, provision, health and protection for The Justice Foundation, Norma McCorvey, Sandra Cano (the former "Doe" of Doe v. Bolton, Doe was Roe's companion case which together allowed abortion on-demand and partial birth abortion), and their lawyers, staff, donors, volunteers and prayer supporters and all their families.
2. Confession (Psalm 51), repentance (especially led by President Bush and other national leaders) (Psalm 32), revival (II Chronicles 7:14), reconciliation and the end to the "covenant with death, the agreement with the grave" that is Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. Read and pray all the verses of Isaiah 28:14-22.
3. Commit to fast as the Lord leads, and pray everyday until the very end, not just when the cases are filed, but until the decision is rendered publicly in writing and cannot be changed. In 1992, the last time Roe was almost overturned, there were five votes to reverse Roe v. Wade after oral argument. But one justice changed his vote before the opinion became public, and we have had 14 more years of legalized abortion on demand.
4. Pray that the justices will actually read the over 1000 affidavits of post-abortive women and other evidence filed in the case. Pray that a spirit of justice will invade and embolden every justice of the Supreme Court (William H. Rehnquist, John Paul Stevens, Sandra Day O'Connor, Antonin Scalia, Anthony M. Kennedy, David Hackett Souter, Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Stephen G. Breyer).
5. Pray that all men will come forward and exercise their spiritual authority by praying (between the hours of 5am and 7am by calling 1-641-497-7302, Access Code 399430#) especially for the end of legalized abortion, repent for their role in abortion and for their nation, their families, and those in authority, especially the courts. Pray that women who have had abortions will repent, pray and speak the truth boldly, pray for proper relationships between men and women, and that youth will speak out with passion. Pray for heartbreaking conviction and deep repentance for all Americans' role in abortion.
6. Pray for unity in the body of Christ, and that all Christians would come together on this issue. Pray for heartbreaking conviction and deep repentance for the church's role in abortion and the boldness to offer forgiveness and healing for abortion.
7. That the Solicitor Generals, on behalf of the Texas and United States Government, would support Norma McCorvey's position.
