Last week a met an incredible woman. When she was 19 she started to feel sick and she went to the doctor with her boyfriend who was much older than her. Once in the hospital she got up in a bed and a nurse said to her that the procedure had gone well. "What procedure?" she asked (she didn't even know she was pregnant). "The abortion" said the nurse.
From that moment she couldn't avoid the guilt. She felt depressed: no one could help her and nothing could comfort her. But then she discovered God - not the God of anger, but God as a father who Forgives. Fortunately, now she is married and has two kids, but whenever she tells the story she still cries.
Her friend decided to abort last week, and she was afraid because she didn't know what to say or how to say it. She had heard about EMC before so she came to our South Bronx office asking for help. I called her friend and after we talked, she decided to come to our office. She did Pro-life work, because even just talking about that is Pro-life work.
Now, this girl who was a victim of an abortion wants to do something else, and wants to to work with us.
