Fetal models from the first trimester of pregnancy.
As we enter the last two weeks of the international 40 Days for Life, 287 babies have already been saved from abortion. Find your nearest 40 Days for Life location and sign up, help women and save lives.
A young woman rolled down her window at 2322 Butano Drive,
the location of our Sacramento 40 Days for Life. She reached out to
take the packet of information, which includes details
about Alternatives Pregnancy Center and the Sacramento Life Center.
I showed her the Fetal Models, which convey the exact size
and development of a baby at 7-10 weeks of pregnancy. She teared up…
“Oh how I wish someone had been here when I had my abortion. I wouldn’t
have done it.”
I held her hand to comfort her. We prayed together through
her tears, gently conveying God’s message of mercy, grace, love, and
forgiveness to a contrite young heart. I gave her information
about post-abortion healing programs and a Precious Feet Pin so that she
would have something by which to remember her baby.
She is now equipped to share her
“I-would-never-do-that-again” message with her friends and family
members who may come to her for advice about an unexpected
pregnancy. Saving lives, helping the needy and consoling the hurting are
why we are there. Just this week, studies show the US abortion rate has
dropped 25% from 2008-2014!
