First Fruits Friday - Under Age & Under Stress

Recently we have seen an increase in the amount of teens seeking an abortion - or rather someone was seeking an abortion for them. Our Sidewalk Manager was able to go with one of the clients to see the baby - who was 33 weeks. In Georgia, one can seek an abortion up to six weeks or at the detection of a heartbeat. To learn more about the law check out GA Heartbeat Law  . Our team members contacted the authorities and followed correct protocol for a minor seeking an abortion and who fit the criteria for rape. To find out the correct protocol please visit Justia.com

The teen was happy and wanted to keep the child. The adults who surrounded her did not - for various reasons. As we reached out to the teen to follow up with services, she began to ignore our outreach. In one call, we were told that the mother and her pregnant teen had traveled to Colorado to get the abortion. It is against the law to coerce a pregnant mother to get an abortion. You can learn more about preventing forced abortion. Sadly, many abortion providers ignore the desires of the young mothers and simply take the money for another abortion, most always a very lucrative proposition.  Planned Parenthood’s history of selling aborted baby body parts for a profit is very well documented. David discovered “After almost 30 months as an undercover investigative journalist, David publicly unveiled the damning and gruesome results of his investigation, in a release he called the “Human Capital Project.” David uncovered evidence of infants born alive and vivisected for their organs, illegal partial birth abortions, and a host of financial and ethical violations relating to the illegal trafficking in aborted baby body parts.” See more at Thomas Moore Society.

We are still following up with the family and contacting abortion facilities in Colorado about the law and notifying them that we are aware that the teen wants to keep her baby. It is a wait and see situation right now and we are ready to help at any moment. Please pray for this teen mom!

Heavenly Father, the beauty and dignity of human life was the crowning of your creation. You further ennobled that life when your Son became one with us in his incarnation. Help us to realize the sacredness of human life and to respect it from the moment of conception until the last moment at death.
