From 40 Days For Life: DAY 32: Planned Parenthood's price list

 

What's the value of one human life? The answer from the Author of Life is simple: priceless. But Planned Parenthood has a price tag--valuing a pre-born child's life at as little as $400. Recently, an abortion-bound mother changed her mind and left an Eastern Seaboard Planned Parenthood! As this expectant mother shared the good news with the local campaign leader praying in front of the building, she left a parting gift: Planned Parenthood's price list.

Depending of the age and size of the child, the cost of an abortion at this Planned Parenthood runs as high as $1,600. But the cost of abortion isn't the only item of interest on the price sheet: Planned Parenthood pays only $.25 for a pregnancy test...and sells that same test for at least $15. That's a 6,000 percent markup! Planned Parenthood charges $15 to $45 for "options information." What are those options? In its most recent annual report, the abortion giant reports providing prenatal services and adoption referrals for fewer than 12,000 women...while performing more than 321,000 abortions. That means Planned Parenthood is charging women to listen to its abortion sales pitch. If a woman chooses life, Planned Parenthood charges her up to $230 for the ultrasound. The cost of STI testing at Planned Parenthood goes as high as $250. Pregnancy testing, options counseling, ultrasound, and STI testing are all available at pregnancy help centers FREE of charge. So why does Planned Parenthood need taxpayer funding?

Bloomington, Indiana As he prayed in front of Planned Parenthood, Fr. Ignatius was approached by a belligerent atheist who angrily cursed at him for his pro-life witness. But Bloomington leader Monica said Fr. Ignatius kept his composure, and--by the end of the encounter--the abortion supporter "was a whole new person!" Not only did he calm down, but he also expressed openness to learning more about God. As he departed, the man accepted a holy medal and said he was willing to come back to discuss matters further with Fr. Ignatius.

Monica also reports one saved baby--and three more babies she suspects might have been saved from abortion! "Something funny is going on at Planned Parenthood," Monica said. "They appear to be down to around five or six employees. Normally, they are around eight or nine." Monica added that no abortions were performed all week. "They are closed some days when they should be open with no apparent rhyme or reason. Today, it doesn't appear they are performing any services."

The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she bore her child he might devour it. She gave birth to a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne. — Revelation 12:4-5 3 O God, from generation to generation, you have called your people to be the very aroma of life amidst a culture of death. Now it is our turn. Prepare me. Send me. Use me. I am eager to do my part. Stir your people everywhere to take up this great work. See today's full devotional
