The Truth is More Popular Than People Think

On a recent day a woman walked into our office on 149th street with three of her friends. Two of them had been in our office before and decided to keep their baby. The other friend was new but seemed to be familiar with fetal development and other issues pertaining to life.

So yes EMC does get return clients and friends do refer their friends to us. A great advantage of having so many girls at once is being able to give the pro-life, pro-chastity message to girls not necessarily in a crisis pregnancy.

Obviously, the main goal is to attend to the girl in the crisis, which is what I did, but luckily she was negative with her test. This provided me with the opportunity to focus on chastity speaking with all of the girls. Girls that have been active sexually and with babies - yet the message of authentic life and love really does resonate with these young - or even not so young - girls.

In a group as well they were able to reinforce themselves and it was inspiring to see those who live in a culture with almost no positive influences to be excited about the authentic message of life and love.

It will be hard for them, as it is to anyone, to live up to the standards that we are called to with our sexuality - but there is no standard that is impossible to attain. And for me - well I'm just glad that the truth can be popular.
