Good News from 40 Days for Life!
40 Days for Life is beginning to wind down its second prayer vigil for the year. As we have said before, this is an opportunity for Christians to gather and pray that abortion will end in America.
Today, Shawn Carney–one of the organizers of 40 Days for Life–shared the following story from South Carolina,
“John, a 40 Days for Life volunteer, was praying outside the abortion center when a client stopped to ask him if he was the valet parking attendant. ‘No,’ he said, ‘but I’d like to talk to you before you go in there!’
The woman took him up on his offer and explained that she already had two children and she wasn’t sure she could handle a third. John talked to her, reassured her, and told her about the nearby pregnancy center that could help her with all of her concerns.
The woman went into the abortion center and returned 30 or 40 minutes later, proudly showing John her ultrasound and telling him that she had decided to keep her baby. John sent her on her way with the contact information for the pregnancy center.
All told, 40 Days for Life estimates about 300 babies have been saved from abortion in the past month because of volunteers like John. What a remarkable testimony!
