It was 97 degrees outside yesterday. After three hours, it was hard to stay put until the girls come out from the clinic. I sang, I read God’s Word, finally I sat down on the curb under a tree for a few. Then the girls started coming out. The clinic usually opens at 10 on Mondays. This day, the girls were made to wait outside until 10:30. The doctor doesn’t enter the building until 12:30, and then the girls start coming out in the next 30 minutes, all fifteen at short intervals. Not much counseling going on inside.
Anyway, a couple had gone in earlier, and when I talked to the young man by himself he wanted to have the child and took the material, but didn’t think she would listen. When they came out 2-3 hours later, I approached them again, and the young lady told me very sweetly and tearfully that she appreciated what I did.
There is hope. There is a blessing in our work of love and truth.

Hey there, just wanted to say “Keep up the good work!”. I sometimes come out to the clinic with my little son (who was an unplanned pregnancy). I haven’t been out lately because it is so hot, and I’m afraid to take him.
God bless you for what you are doing.
