Self-sufficient Christians are weak, easily deceived, ineffective in service, easily angered, over-confident, and ruled by their emotions. Insufficient Christians, who know they can do nothing outside the power and strength that Christ gives, are actually strong, because the power of God flows through their utter dependence on Him.

THE UPJOHN COMPANY – CARING OR KILLING?

Unborn children are destroyed daily by drugs developed and manufactured by the Upjohn Company. On May 19, leading pro-life groups launched a nation-wide boycott of all Upjohn products, and we urge you to join in.

As far as we know, Upjohn is the sole U.S. manufacturer of prostaglandin drugs used in late term abortions. What’s more, there’s growing evidence that these compounds may soon be available for at-home, “do-it-yourself” abortions.

Some may question the effectiveness of boycotts. The recent decision by Southland Corp. to remove pornography from 7-Eleven stores shows that economic boycotts CAN work. At times it’s inconvenient, but if enough people join in, we can have a tremendous effect.

This year Upjohn celebrates their 100th Anniversary with the motto, “A Century of Caring.” Let’s take a stand and show what caring really is – compassion for “the least of these,” especially unborn children.

Ask for alternatives to all Upjohn products – both prescription drugs and over-the-counter items. Ask your doctor and hospital to quit prescribing Upjohn drugs, and be sure to tell them why. Also talk to your veternarian, because Upjohn has a large line of animal drugs. Pressure from different angles will make the boycott more effective.

Be sure to tell Upjohn why you are boycotting: Dr. Theodore Cooper, The Upjohn Company, 7000 Portage Rd., Kalamazoo, MI 49001. (616) 323-4000.
