Basel, Switzerland
The
campaign team in Basel was accosted by an angry woman who sharply
criticized vigil participants, citing women who conceive in rape.
40 Days for Life volunteers told her about a refugee who became pregnant through an assault, kept her baby, and found motherhood to be a healing experience.
The
angry passerby agreed this was a success story but still insisted that
pro-lifers should provide aid and support to women rather than pray in
the streets...
...so
prayer warriors introduced the woman to a member of the team who
specifically works with expectant mothers in crisis doing just that.
The compassion of the pro-life position grew increasingly evident. "The woman became calmer and calmer and walked away almost kindly," the Basel team reported.
