From 40 Days for Life-Day 31 The abortionist's Wife | Facebook

Day 31 The abortionist's Wife | Facebook:
"THE ABORTIONIST'S WIFE"

A vigil participant was noticing that nearly all the

cars in the abortion center parking lot were parked in

the staff area -- very few were in the area reserved

for those with appointments. And that was good.

The volunteer was soon deep in prayer when the

abortionist drove up -- with his wife and their

teenager. He got out of the car and headed toward

the building while the wife and teen drove away.

The abortionist's wife pulled up next to the vigil

participant, rolled down her window and asked, "How

are you doing?" The surprised volunteer answered,

"Good! How about you?"

She responded, "I just wanted to tell you that I so

appreciate what you do and how you are always so nice

and respectful." That simple response turned out to

be the opening line in a very lengthy conversation.

The wife expressed her gratitude for the way the

40 Days for Life vigil is conducted. In another city,

there is a group outside the abortion center that

yells at her husband.

Here, however, he's been told that the vigil

participants are praying for him. "He just can't

understand how you can be so against what he does

and yet so nice to him."

She explained that her husband grew up in a home that

had no use for religion -- the concept is totally

foreign to him. The volunteer promised to pray that he

would be able to grasp -- and eventually embrace --

faith. The teen blurted out, "Please do!"

"I asked the abortionist's wife to pray for me," said

the volunteer, "and she said she would."

The wife said, "I'm really impressed that you believe

in something so strongly and passionately that you’re

willing to be here every week for years in every kind

of weather."

"There is much to meditate upon from this conversation,"

said the 40 Days for Life volunteer. "It confirmed the

constant presence, the peaceful method, the prayerful

attitude. It helped give me a renewed sense of

dedication to continually trying to get people to

sign up so that we can have a constant presence on the

sidewalk. We never know who will see us and when they

will see us.

"God gave me an awesome story in order to ask once

again for you to join us for 40 Days for Life. Please

keep praying for an end to abortion and for ALL those

involved. God is using us to help bring His children

to Him -- ALL of them!"
