As
Roe v. Wade Set to Turn 41, Pro-Life Movement Winning More Victories Than
Ever
In a just-released report from
the Guttmacher Institute, more pro-life laws have passed in various states
over the past three years than during the entire previous decade. State
legislatures enacted 205 abortion restrictions from 2011 to 2013, contrasted
with the 189 provisions enacted during the entire previous decade.
Guttmacher laments, “This legislative onslaught has dramatically changed the landscape for women needing abortion.” Indeed, abortions are at historic lows. Further, public opinion has changed dramatically. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
OBGYN Stopped Doing Abortions After Seeing Her Own Child on the Ultrasound Screen
Former
abortionist Dr. Yvonne Moore is an OBGYN whose story appears at Teenbreaks,
a pro-life site aimed at teenagers. You can read about her and other former
abortionists here.
In her short but powerful testimony, Dr. Moore describes how she began performing abortions as a resident at the University of Tennessee. Financial motives played a role in her decision to become an abortionist. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Planned
Parenthood Board Member Calls Abortion a “Sacred Gift”
Valerie
Tarico, who proudly sits on the Board of Advocates for Planned Parenthood,
is already coming under fire for saying Christianity is “Going Down.”
But that’s not all the abortion activist said that has pro-life people
and Christians up in arms.

actually planned for a home birth but when her contractions began she was
unable to reach the snowbound support people she expected to be with her.

Project Aims to Give Names to Every Baby Killed in Abortion
With more than 56 million abortions in the United States since Roe v. Wade,
there are millions of babies who were victimized by abortion who were never
given names. Until now.
Violence is not the end of the story, says Charlotte Ostermann of 50MillionNames.org, it is now possible to register names for the aborted children who have died who, up until now have merely been statistics. Giving a name emphasizes the humanity of each baby, and calls attention to the staggering number of abortions in a hope-giving way, she says. Each name is accompanied by a concrete gesture: How will you honor this child? http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

My Doctor Told Me to “Evacuate” My “Dead” Unborn
Baby, She’s Now Two
The
joy that comes with that second pink line on a pregnancy test is hard to
imagine for someone who hasn’t experienced it. It fills the mind of
a soon-to-be mother with images of bassinets and pastel colored nursing
blankets. Even all of those time consuming trips to the doctor’s office
seem like a small price to pay for the promise of what that pink line will
bring.
This wasn’t my first pregnancy
and I thought I had it all figured out. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/The

At 20 I Had an Abortion, Last Year I Was Diagnosed With Breast
Cancer
Not
often have a read a post-abortion story that was filled with such compounded
tragedy. The following is such a sad read. Thanks to Lisa for wanting to share,
with the hope she can stop someone else from making the same mistake.
Guest post by Lisa: When I was 20
years old, I became pregnant and like many, I was scared and not sure what to
do. I listened to family members who told me that I had my whole life ahead
of me and that having the baby would “ruin” my life. One family member
even told me that I would get big and fat, that nobody (including my boyfriend),
would want to be with me and would go elsewhere. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Not
