Only two abortion clinics remain in Milwaukee. Since the Missionaries to the Preborn began in 1988, 6 of 8 abortion clinics in Milwaukee have closed.
Last Saturday, October 29th, 2005, the Summit Women’s Health organization, an abortion clinic located at 530 N. Water St. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, closed it’s doors for good. The clinic has not declared any public reason for it’s shutting down, but since the year 2000, Missionaries to the Preborn has targeted the clinic with daily pickets. For the last five years, they have been there every day to offer help to the mothers as they approach the clinic. They have also frequently picketed the homes of the abortionists and the clinic workers.
Missionaries to the Preborn has also conducted investigations into the operating procedures of the Summit abortuary, and has publicized the malpractice lawsuits against the abortionists which “practiced” there.
From the early to mid-90’s, Summit was the scene of countless rescues where the Missionaries and other Christians blockaded the doors of the clinic to defend the helpless preborn from a grisly death. Hundreds were arrested.
“We give thanks to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ for the closing of this death camp. This is proof, that when God’s people act in simple obedience to His Word and show love to their neighbor in need, these abortion clinics can be shut down," stated Pastor Matt Trewhella, Founder of Missionaries to the Preborn
"To all of you who have labored there at Summit in the past, thank you for your efforts! To all of you who have given to us so we can remain out on the field of battle, thank you for your support! Spread the news of this everywhere as hopefully it will encourage the hearts of the saints, and renew in the hearts of some the battle for the helpless preborn anew. Below is the text of a press release that was sent out to scores of news outlets today."
