This spring, from February 25 – April 5 of 2009, San Antonio will be uniting with other cities across North America and around the world for a massive coordinated pro-life mobilization – the 40 Days for Life campaign. People of faith are praying that, with God’s help, this effort will help bring an end to the tragedy of abortion.

40 Days for Life is a focused pro-life campaign that has generated measurable lifesaving results in more than 200 cities where it has been implemented. Some locations have reported as much as a 28% drop in local abortion numbers and hundreds of new people getting involved in local lifesaving ministry efforts. The 40 Days for Life campaign is made up of three key components:

·         Prayer and Fasting: inviting people of faith throughout San Antonio and South Texas to join together for 40 days of fervent prayer and fasting for an end to abortion

·         Peaceful Vigil: standing for life through a 40-day peaceful public witness outside the local Planned Parenthood at 104 Babcock (the corner of Babcock and Fredericksburg) from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM for the duration of the campaign.

·         Community Outreach: taking a positive, upbeat pro-life message to every corner of our city through media efforts, church presentations, petition drives, and public visibility. Learn how you can “speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves” here in San Antonio by contacting Juan Gaona at 210-367-1687 or by visiting: www.40daysforlife.com/sanantonio

“He can’t change me!”

I listened to a testimony from Carol Everett, author of Blood Money, who was on TBN that will send chills down your spine. My reason for sharing this testimony is because knowledge is a tool we can use in our fight to save innocent children.

The woman began by telling the audience that she had had an abortion when she was younger. She knew after she had the abortion that what she had done was wrong. Her guilt overwhelmed her. She decided that she would get other women to have abortions to try to ease her own guilt. So she went to work at an abortion clinic. She realized the abortion industry was a money making industry and her goal became to make a million dollars.

Preying upon young girls between the ages of 13 to 18,  she got the best doctor at the clinic to open up his own practice with her and she worked hard to reach her goal to make as much money as she could. She purposely gave young girls a low dose pill that she knew would not work if they did not take the pill at the same exact time everyday. Or if they missed just one pill that they could become pregnant. She would wait for their call, knowing that eventually they would become pregnant. She would have the girl come in and her staff would work on their goal to get her to have an abortion. If others in the office could not convince the young girl then she was sent directly to her and she would seal the deal, so to speak.

She was so driven to make money that it didn’t matter to her that she was killing babies to make that money. One day a man came into the clinic to offer them a financial strategy. The man said he could help them if they would meet with him for four hours a week. Eager to make more money she agreed. It didn’t take her too long to realize that he was not a financial advisor but a pastor. He told her he was sent by God to take one person out of that clinic. She laughed and thought of who she thought that one person might be (not thinking it was her, of course). She was always in control of things and never overtaken by anyone. One day the man asked her to pray a simple prayer and to try to get rid of him she prayed the prayer. The prayer was to accept Jesus Christ into her life. After saying the prayer she walked off and laughed. Ha! He can’t change me. Little did she know that everything was about to change for her.

Her heart was convicted. Her abortion business got caught giving abortions to young girls who were not even pregnant and they were shut down. One day she sat and read a passage in the Bible and realized that she had murdered 35,000 babies. From that day forward her life was changed. She now tells her story so that others can see just how evil the abortion industry is. It is a money making industry and innocent children are it’s victims.

Why’d they leave?

One after another, the women left the clinic crying, getting into their cars, with the “significant others” attempting to console them. This is typically what we see in post abortive women, after hours in the Planned Parenthood @ 104 Babcock. On this particular day, Saturday November 7th, 2008 6 women left the clinic anywhere from 15 – 3o minutes after checking in, at the front counter. In all of the months of witnessing well over 700 women walking into Planned Parenthood for abortions – this, we have never seen, so many leaving for no apparent reason. We don’t know exactly what happened, as the women refused to speak to us – but this we know for sure; efficacious prayer was @ work saving those 6 little babies on Saturday. Tragically, there were 19 other youngsters who never made it out alive. May God have mercy on all our souls.
