3 Choose Life During "40 Days for Life" Campaign
Three mothers decided against abortion during the recently concluded 40 Days for Life campaign in Fort Lauderdale. 40 Days for Life is an international event involving 40 days of prayer and fasting, peaceful vigil outside an abortion center, and community outreach. More than 6,000 children have been spared to date from abortion through this nationwide initiative.
"She Turned and Went Home" Here is one account of how God worked to spare an unborn child during the just-passed campaign in Fort Lauderdale: On Saturday, Oct. 27, a young lady approaching the abortion center told the pro-life, sidewalk counselor that she was considering terminating her pregnancy because her parents would not approve of her having a baby out of wedlock. She has been living with a boyfriend for several years, and he is supportive of her giving birth. She did not really want to abort the baby and does not have much familiarity with the local scene as she is from out of state. The young woman was told about a pregnancy center in her neighborhood and encouraged to get married. She turned around and went home. Thank you to all who joined in the fall campaign by your prayers and your presence. God is on the side of the unborn and He will answer our petitions as we seek Him on their behalf.
