40 Days for Life - Closing Doors, Opening Eyes to the Truth

I always love a story that has a happy ending. In the case of 40 Days for Life there are way too many to ever fully report them, esp since even they don't know all the lives they have saved through prayer & witness.

In London Marie Stopes, whom I have mentioned before, is learning the same lesson many a Planned Parenthood site has learned, prayer works. & when 40 Days shows up, the number of murders & collateral damage they do goes down. & often permanantly somewhere down the road. People's hearts are changed, including employees. The fact that God does work through this group is a big reason they are so hated by the abortion industry.

& once again we see why abortion mills HATE ultrasounds. They tell the truth, that isn't a blob of tissue, it is a human being that has just as much right to life as the mother does.

Dark as things may seem at times, there is hope. As long as we keep our eyes focused on Jesus. I don't know if it is too late to save our society from going the way of many others in the past. What I do know is it is never too late to save the life of an unborn child, unless we don't do anything. Say a prayer, write a letter to a company that supports Planned Parenthood letting them know how you feel. Write a letter to the editor. Volunteer at a Crisis Pregnancy Center. Donate money to a Pro-life cause. I could go on & on. Each of us can do at least one or more of these things today & every day. JUST DO IT!!!!!

Save a Life: Just 'Ask to See the Ultrasound'

Commentary by Shawn Carney, Campaign Director, 40 Days for Life
October 1, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - On this tenth day of the 40 Days for Life campaign, I have a few stories, a few more pictures -- and good news from London that should help get your day off to a really exciting start.
London
Robert, who's coordinating the first-ever 40 Days for Life campaign in England, says the prayers of vigil participants have helped save more two babies.
Praise God for his courage to bring this campaign to London! Plus there's another sign that shows how this vigil is having an impact.
"It looks like Marie Stopes [the abortion facility] has closed their doors today," he wrote on Wednesday. "And all their clients are turning up." This certainly suggests that the closure was unexpected. This same abortion business was also closed last Saturday -- another day they are usually open.
Marie Stopes, by the way, is a major abortion chain in the UK -- not unlike the Planned Parenthood network. Yet their Central London location is apparently closing without notice during 40 Days for Life. That is EXCELLENT news!
Little Rock, Arkansas
The 40 Days for Life team in Little Rock, Arkansas reported three babies spared from abortion. One of the pro-life counselors had a simple, direct message for women entering the facility for abortion appointments that really struck a chord:
"Ask to see the ultrasound."
Showing the ultrasound image is something most abortion centers don't like to do. It offers instant proof to a woman that a baby does indeed exist -- HER baby.
One very young couple that the counselor talked to walked out of the facility with smiles -- and their ultrasound photo in hand. They took information about a pro-life pregnancy center and left.
Another couple received the same simple message: "Ask to see the ultrasound." The counselor reports this woman was possibly in the fourth month of pregnancy.
The couple went inside -- but over the course of the next hour, the woman came out crying twice. They came out a third time -- she was still crying -- but this time they left. No abortion!
