Hope for a Stripper


Recently I followed up with a girl I had weeks ago and she is now seriously considering an abortion again. Unfortunately, the hope fostered during counseling can be difficult for many girls to hold onto, and it is easy to slip back into despair.



This girl was a special case from the beginning - she has had multiple abortions in the past and has a night job as a stripper. After a very successful counseltation I knew she was in need of healing and referred her to the Sisters of Life. They met once and it went well, but because of the girl's busy schedule it has been difficult to keep face-to-face contact with her. One of the hardest parts emotionally about this job is the trouble it is to maintain contact with somebody no matter how hard you try.


And now unfortunately she is seriously considering abortion again and it may the case that the only thing that will stop her is intense prayer. Of course, hope is not lost yet - and hopefully I will be able to update blog-readers with happy news about this case in the future.


As of now - her baby's heart is stil beating.
