"Here is the photo of Jennifer and her baby Portia, and my dad. (They are standing in front of Hillcrest Abortion Center)Jennifer had scheduled the killing of her child in the spring of 2006 when we (the Life Ministries crew) called out to her outside the Hillcrest abortuary. She turned around and left without talking to us.
A week later she came back and again we called out to her, pleading for her baby’s life and offering her every kind of help. She walked over to us with arms folded across her chest and angrily said, "OK, I’m not going to do it, but I need help." Her voice went from anger to brokenness as the tears began to flow. Linda gave Jennifer a comforting hug as David (my dad) told Jennifer we would help with everything she needed.
Over the next few months we were blessed to help Jennifer through some tough times.
Yesterday, Wednesday-June 6, Jennifer’s dad drove her up beside us and Jennifer jumped out and got Portia out of the car seat and thanked us for helping her. David got to hold precious little Portia, born on December 11, 2006. While we see over 100 babies saved each year, we rarely have moments like this! Praise be to God for what He has done and this encouragement He brought our way!"

Doesn't this picture just make you cry? I fell apart looking at this precious little girl who's life was actually scheduled to be ended just a few months ago....
I can't get over how precious Portia is -- and SO adorable! and SO precious! !!
She can say, "My frame was not hidden from You
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
Your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be." (ps. 139)
Amazing!!!!!
