The sidewalk counselor approached a woman who looked to be in her early 40s, wearing a Muslim head scarf. He handed her a flyer and she paused while listening briefly to what the counselor said about the risks and side effects of having an abortion. The woman’s daughter, who was in her early 20s, was already inside. She interrupted and said, “This will be very difficult. She is like a child…you don’t understand, I am Muslim, you don’t get pregnant in our culture if you’re not married.” The counselor said, “This baby is a gift from God. It’s your grandchild, right?” She nodded yes. “It’s not your grandchild’s fault, is it?”. She looked down, and said she had to go inside. The counselor said he would pray for her.
About 45 minutes later she paused her car in the driveway while her daughter got into the back seat. She moved the car up toward the sidewalk, and stopped for a moment, then honked the horn to get the counselor’s attention. She gave a big wave to the counselor and was beaming with smiles. The counselor waved back, not expecting it.
The woman’s reaction could only mean one thing, her grandchild was not going to be aborted today.
Please pray for this woman, her daughter, and her grandchild.
There are just over two weeks remaining in the Spring 40 Days for Life campaign. If you have not yet done so, please try to find some time to come out and pray in front of one of the 40 Days for Life Planned Parenthood locations.

“We are little flames poorly sheltered by frail walls against the storm of dissolution and madness, in which we flicker and sometimes almost go out.”

Any country that lets too many Muslim immigrants in is asking for it. Just ask France and Holland. Look at Dearbornistan here in Michigan. They don’t assimilate to American culture. But it appears their young girls are just as loose.
Muslims also oppose abortion as evil and repugnant. Muslim leaders issued a joint statement with Pope St. John Paul II opposing UN approval of abortion and calling on all nations to help women avoid abortion. Mustim partnership was crucial to the pope’s success in blocking UN approval of abortion. Muslims were the pope’s greatest allies on abortion. The USCCB has posted a number of articles about their ongoing dialogue with Muslims in the U.S: “These “regional dialogues” were only one of several levels of ongoing relationships in the United States between Christians and Muslims. A number of Christian congregations and Islamic centers have good neighborly relations. In cities, often those that are diocesan sees or similar Christian judicatory locations, Christian and Muslim leaders know one another and are together for various occasions. At church-sponsored universities, ongoing programs and special events bring Muslim and Christian scholars together for conversation and projects regularly. On an international scale, church leaders and Muslim leaders now meet and participate in dialogues. The three regional dialogues between the USCCB and Muslim organizations meet annually on questions of a theological nature. They occur in a retreat-like setting and involve a certain amount of spiritual sharing and religious experience. They also allow participants to report and reflect on projects in various cities of the region in which they are involved.”
He says that he is not a mystic. He has had no visions. No locutions. No moment where he thought God was speaking to him directly.”
What does he have, then?
Even people who are not very spiritual experience God speaking to them in various ways-through others, through books, through music, through Mass, through the Bible, through Mary.
I do not understand this.
Sorry wrong article.
Every saved child is another win for God. Praise Him.
Or as it happens in this case, for a win for Allah.
