John,

Does infanticide go on in America today, or are we making this up?

There was a time--not so long ago--when abortion supporters didn't believe in infanticide and distanced themselves from anyone who did.

Those days are long gone.

Over the last five years, abortion advocates and politicians have publicly and repeatedly sought to deny health care to babies who survive abortion. 

This is not according to pro-life propaganda, but from the mouths of abortion advocates themselves. One pro-abortion governor even described the barbaric process on the radio.

On part two of our fourth-trimester abortion podcast series, we continue dismantling the narrative that late-term abortion and infanticide simply don't happen:

Hempstead, New York

Tom on Long Island said that Planned Parenthood personnel arrived to work late--which provided 40 Days for Life participants an opportunity to engage more clients.

Those clients included a mother, her daughter, and her daughter's boyfriend who had come for a pregnancy test.

Tom provided them with a wealth of information, including his personal experience counseling women grieving their abortions as many as 50 years later.

"I could tell that the mother was locked in," he said.

She continued toward Planned Parenthood, but she didn't stay long. Within two minutes, the three left!

Sucre, Bolivia

Byron is leading his first 40 Days for Life vigil in Bathurst, New Brunswick, but that's not the only way he's spreading the Good News. He also does mission work internationally.

On a recent mission trip to Bolivia, Byron visited the Sucre 40 Days for Life vigil and spent a couple of hours praying for an end to abortion. The local team told Byron that while there are laws against abortion, it is permitted in certain circumstances, costing between 20,000 and 30,000 children their lives each year.

"They were visibly shocked to learn of the more than 100,000 abortions that take place in Canada every year," Byron said. "And even more [shocked by] our complete lack of laws regulating abortion.

Byron and the Bolivian team agreed to keep each other in mutual prayer. "Our short visit was a huge encouragement for both campaigns," Byron added.

Jesus told him, "Have sight; your faith has saved you." 

—Luke 18:42 

Dear Lord, give us the courage to pray for miraculous healings of body and soul. Extend your mercy to mothers and fathers who have experienced miscarriage. Grant them the peace of your son, and help them to rest in the assurance that they will one day be reunited with their precious children. Amen.

For life,

Shawn Carney
