A Fleece Blanket is a Poor Substitute

“Just wanted to let you know of our experience on March 20. My daughter - home on Spring Break - took our shift at the corner and witnessed a couple of wonderful/sad events. One was an apparently poor and maybe homeless family group walking up Union Ave - all with joy on their faces since they were going on an outing to Pizza Hut. One of the children asked what we were doing and her mom answered - she hadn't really looked at our signs until then. She said - Oh you're the people who are telling people about abortion. Her answer to her child was lovely - they are praying for the babies.

We also saw many adult women stop at the corner to pick up young women - sad day since we can only assume what had happened in that building. Several of the young women got into the waiting cars and wrapped up in fleece blankets and tipped their seats back so they couldn't see out the windows. Made us wonder if Planned Parenthood sent their drivers off to the cars with a "free" blanket to wrap up in - a poor substitute for the baby blanket the young women could be holding.

… She [my daughter] did not want to be at PP on a day that they performed abortions but in the end was touched that we were there on one of those days. I find it most important to have volunteers there on those days - how many women have refused to go in for the procedure knowing that someone is outside praying for them?

Thanks for all you do and God bless” - Ann
