Aborted Baby Survives After Being Thrown Away As ‘Medical Waste’

by Rhoda Gayle May 19, 2022

A two-pound baby was born alive and thrown away as a ‘medical waste’ after a failed abortion. She survived the ordeal and thanks to the nurse who heard her faint cries.

Melissa Ohden

Melissa Ohden was just 14-years-old when she learned about the dark history of her birth. She was a survivor of a failed abortion. A toxic saline solution was injected into her mother’s womb in an attempt to kill her. However, it wasn’t successful and she was born alive weighing only over two pounds.

After knowing the truth about her birth, she had a hard time dealing with the pain of being unwanted. That’s when she turned to bulimia, alcohol, and sex to cope. But by God’s grace, she was able to overcome what she’s been through during her teenage years.

“People often ask me, ‘How did you ever come out of that?’ I always say, ‘It really wasn’t me.’ It wasn’t, it was the grace of God that saved me,’” she recalled.

Medical Waste

After overcoming the pain and eventually forgiving her birth mother, she tried to find her. That’s when she discovered that it wasn’t her mom’s choice to abort her. Her biological mother became pregnant with her when she was still a 19-year-old student. It was her mother’s mom who forced the abortion.

“I’ve always loved her but my love for her deepened year after year… The older I get, the more I learned how to love people and respect them for who they are… It’s a love story. It’s a love story that God wrote and men attempted to rewrite that whole story and God’s story wins in the end.”

Her mother was extremely sedated that she didn’t even know she was born alive during that time. For more than three decades, she believed that Melissa was dead. When they finally met after all those years, it was very life-changing for both of them. There was forgiveness and love.

“It was life-changing. I will never forget the moment that I saw her and we got to embrace and I think the words that came out of my mouth was, ‘It’s been a long time.’”

Mom Getting Abortion Decides To Keep Baby At The Last Minute After Hearing Her Heartbeat

by Christel Berns May 18, 2022

written by Christel Berns

A mom getting an abortion decided to keep her baby at the last minute after she heard her daughter’s heartbeat inside her womb for the first time.

Going Through Abortion

In a post shared by Olivia Bridwell, a moment of abortion turns into a moment of blessing after a mom decides to keep her baby. Apparently, the baby was her, and it was her mom, Andrea, who chose to keep her.

“My mom went in to get an abortion when she was pregnant with me,” Olivia wrote. Then she recalled how Andrea, her mom, went to an abortion clinic and was ready to end the life inside her womb. The mom laid on the table when the nurse suddenly asked if Olivia would like to hear the baby’s heartbeat before doing the procedure. And so, she did and heard her daughter’s heartbeat for the first time. That’s when she changed her mind and thought she would just “go through with adoption.”

“If that nurse hadn’t asked my mom to hear my heartbeat, I wouldn’t be here today,” Olivia added.

Embracing Motherhood

But when her mom gave birth to her, saw her, and held her in her arms, Andrea’s life changed. At once, all the fears and insecurities she felt before her baby was born disappeared. Then she embraced motherhood and never once regretted her decision.

Today, Olivia is forever grateful to her mom for choosing life amid fear and uncertainty. Now, she is also pregnant with a baby boy and is choosing life as well.

“It’s so evident that God has knit this child -although unborn- from the very beginning,” she remarked. Then she encouraged every woman doubting if they would want to keep their baby.

WOMAN WHO WENT THROUGH 3 ABORTIONS FINDS HEALING IN GOD’S GRACE

“If you are debating whether or not to get an abortion,” the soon-to-be mom said, “know that in your darkest hour God is with you and He will sustain you. He makes beautiful and wonderful things out of ashes. And even when we can’t see a way out He is paving a way for newness and redemption. I wouldn’t have a life if my mama didn’t lay down her own. That’s what love is, laying down your life for another.”

Texas Abortions Decreased By 60% After Heartbeat Law Went Into Effect

by Rhoda Gayle February 17, 2022

written by Rhoda Gayle

Abortions in Texas decreased by 60% after the controversial Heartbeat Ban law went into effect in September 2021.

Texas Abortion

Data from Texas Health and Human Services reports shows that there’s a massive plunge in the number of pregnancy terminations in the state of Texas. The report shows that from 5,404 abortions in August 2021, only 2,197 abortions took place in September. It shows a 60% decrease after the law went into effect on September 1, 2021.

In Texas, an average of around 5,000 abortions happen every month. There’s even a record of pregnancy termination from a girl younger than 11-years-old. The heartbeat ban law saves about 100 unborn children daily.

Texas Heartbeat Act

The Texas Heartbeat Act bans abortions after the detection of a heartbeat from the unborn baby. It also gives sole enforcement authority to citizens since they can sue abortion doctors who violate the law. The opponents found it hard to challenge the law in court. Texas Right to Life calls this a success!

“The success of the Texas Heartbeat Act is embodied by every child saved,” said Kimberlyn Schwartz, director of media and communication for Texas Right to Life. “For over 150 days, our work has saved an estimated 100 babies per day. Our impact is only just beginning as more states seek to replicate our success and as we look to the Mississippi case that could overturn Roe this summer.”

The Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy is being challenged by the high court. Pro-life groups are expectant for a decision before July 2022.

71-Year-Old Fights To End Abortion Ever Since His Son Was Born Premature

by Christel Berns February 3, 2022

written by Christel Berns

71-year-old “Patriot Man” has fought to end abortion to protect the life of unborn babies ever since his son was born premature.

Baby Born Premature

After last week’s March for Life in Washington D.C., testimonies on advocacies for life are making headlines. Among the stories that captivated many is a 71-year-old man who became pro-life after having a baby born three months premature.

L.K., one of the pro-life advocates who joined March for Life last week, testified in an interview with Faithwire. The 71-year-old, with an American flag draped around his shoulders, has a son who was born at a mere 2 pounds and half an ounce.

“I prayed to God that, if he would live, I would fight for every unborn baby for the rest of my life,” he told Faithwire. He held back his tears during the interview along Constitution Avenue on the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Patriot Man

L.K. dubbed himself as “Patriot Man” because of the beliefs he upheld as a person.

“I don’t have powers like Super Man,” he stressed. “I couldn’t jump a building if I had to. But I believe in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Without life, the other two are not possible. I just believe we were given the Constitution for rights for all people, and these babies are people — they’re persons, not things.”

PARENTS REFUSED DOCTOR’S ADVICE TO ABORT ‘DEFORMED’ BABY – LOOK AT HIM NOW

Then he urged people not to vote for those who cannot protect lives.

“They need to be protected, and it’s time for all of us to stand up, as Americans, with our vote. And decide, if someone is for murdering babies, do not put them in office. Remove them from office. That’s a dealbreaker with me,” he said.

Further, L.K. shared that the “Patriot Man” is dedicating its allegiance to the principles “God, family, country, truth, justice, and America.”

According to Faithwire, the March for Life last week had an estimated 50,000 marchers from across the country and the world.

Abortion Nurse Decides To Quit Her Job: ‘I Couldn’t Lie to Myself Anymore’

by Christel Berns January 28, 2022

written by Christel Berns

An abortion nurse decided to quit her job after reaching her breaking point saying, “I couldn’t lie to myself anymore.”

Abortion Nurse Story

Noemi Padilla used to live in New York as a surgical nurse. When she moved to Florida, she worked at a women’s clinic, which she thought was a perfect fit at first.

“I felt walking in that I was going to be doing the best possible mercy care,” she said. “What better care to give than for somebody going through such a hard time at that moment?”

YouTube | CBN News

Noemi wanted to give women “the best women possible care” while working in the abortion clinic. But soon enough, she felt something was wrong and felt the clinic had little compassion.

“There was very little actual nursing care,” she said. “It was more like an assembly line…very robotic.”

A Difficult Job

Later on, Noemi found her work at the clinic increasingly difficult.

“You always have the moral issue, which is why we’re the biggest liars to ourselves,” the nurse remarked. “I couldn’t face myself in the mirror.”

Then two years later, Noemi’s job became more difficult and she couldn’t lie to herself anymore. Hence, she started isolating herself from others and spent her time with fellow clinic workers.

“Your entire life becomes the abortion clinic,” the nurse said.

And four years into her clinic career, she finally reached her breaking point. A woman who underwent an unneeded abortion pushed her to the edge.

“I couldn’t lie to myself anymore,” she said.

Finally, Noemi quit her job and left the clinic for good. With the help of the “And Then There Were None” pro-life organization, she was able to leave the industry and rebuild her life. It wasn’t easy for Noemi to leave, but now she is thrilled to speak up for life.

“When you leave the abortion clinic, they shun you. They’ll lie about you. They’ll give you horrible recommendations,” the former abortion nurse said. “They’ll do anything so that you can’t progress because they want you to need them and have to come back.”

Christian Singer Rhett Walker Shares About How Wife Almost Opted Abortion At 17

by Christel Berns December 11, 2021

written by Christel Berns

Christian singer Rhett Walker opens up about his now-wife almost opting for abortion after finding out she was pregnant at 17-years-old.

Pregnant At 17-Years-Old

Rhett was in a relationship with April when one day he found out she was pregnant. At that time, his girlfriend was still 17-years-old, and it was the summer before Rhett’s senior year of high school. Filled with fear, April opted for an abortion and had an appointment scheduled. But God’s intervention stopped her plan from happening.

The young father-to-be knew deep inside that keeping their unborn child was the right thing to do, and it “was the only option.”

God’s Intervention

“With our culture, we’re all selfish,” he said. “We’re inclined to selfishness. The world says [abortion] would have been the easier option: ‘Just keep dating. Don’t be parents yet.’ I can’t imagine life without Rileigh, our 16-year-old, and I can’t imagine where me and April would be if we wouldn’t have walked that hard road.”

“I only know the Holy Spirit led me to say those words to April, when I told her, ‘You’ve gotta trust me.’ Because I didn’t have a plan,” he recalled.

Redemption Of Rhett Walker

Rhett is a pastor’s child, and he admits to the mistakes he made in the past. But he’s also unapologetically grateful for how God’s grace and love redeemed his missteps. He proclaimed how God “takes the mess-ups and He goes, ‘Just watch what I’m gonna do with this story.’”

Then the “Good To Me” singer testified of God’s redemptive power over him and his wife’s life.

“To see what God has done in our lives and to see how He’s positioned us now into spots we dreamed about when we were 17,” he explained. “I really only believe we are here and walking this path because me and April were faithful. Even when it was scary.”

Further, the singer added, “We’re just flawed individuals, and we’ve screwed it up, and we will again… But we fight for each other and we love each other. And that’s what’s most important. And Jesus is at the center of it.”

“We put our eyes on Jesus, and have been walking that way ever since,” he remarked.

Today, their daughter Rileigh is already 16-years-old. Rhett and April is also celebrating their 17 years of marriage, saying, their relationship is on a “a new level of love.”

Woman Went Undercover To Save Young Mothers In Abortion Facility

by Christel Berns June 24, 2021

written by Christel Berns

A pro-life advocate went undercover as a 13-year-old pregnant girl to stop and save others in the abortion facility from going through the procedure.

Pro-Life Advocate Journey

At 9-years-old, Lila Rose discovered a book in her parents’ home about abortion victim photography. The photos revealed the cruelty of killing inside a mother’s womb using suction abortion. Those haunting images stuck in her mind, and since then, she became an advocate of life.

YouTube | 700 Club Interactive

Lila became passionate about educating young people about the evils of abortion at 15-years-old. Lila and her team have gone from place to place to speak against abortion to any audience. But despite their efforts, they felt like they weren’t making a difference. So instead, they decided to go undercover.

Posing Undercover As A Pregnant Young Girl

In Lila’s book ‘Fighting For Life,’ she revealed how she posed as an undercover teenager in a Planned Parenthood Facility. She disguised as a 13-year-old pregnant teen who wanted to have an abortion. And while in the waiting room, Lila tried to convince and talk another young pregnant girl out of her abortion. But unfortunately, the young girl did not listen and still went through it.

YouTube | 700 Club Interactive

But that didn’t stop Lila and her team to continue saving lives. Some have rejected their advocacy, but they managed to save many young mothers as well.

Today, Live Action has the most engaged following of any online pro-life organization in the world. Their lifetime video views reached 1.2 billion, with over five million followers.

The organization started to make headlines after exposing a video of a Planned Parenthood staff buying body parts of aborted babies.

Lila is now a mother and has become even more passionate about fighting for babies’ lives ever since. The message for fighting for life is simple, according to Lila.

“God has a plan for your life. Specifically to help shape our world for the better and to be changed from within as well. You can help save lives. You can help this nation to be more just and more loving. It just possible and the fight requires all of us.”

Abortion Survivor Meets Her Biological Mom 30 Years Later…

by Christel Berns June 3, 2021

written by Christel Berns

An abortion survivor chooses to forgive her biological mother and meets her 30 years later to tell her she is forgiven.

Abortion Survivor Testimony

Melissa Ohden’s birth mother went through a saline infusion abortion in 1977. The procedure involved injecting a toxic salt solution into the womb to poison the baby inside. The doctor expected the mother to deliver a dead baby. But miraculously, Melissa was born alive and struggling. Doctors didn’t believe she would survive because of severe the respiratory and liver problems and seizures she was experiencing. They thought that she would suffer from multiple disabilities if she survived.

YouTube | 100huntley

But God had a plan for Melissa’s life! Despite her condition, a Christian couple chose to adopt her. The hand of God was with her during the early part of her life.

“My parents were just very faithful people who knew that they were called to be my parents,” Melissa said.

At 14-years-old, she learned that the story of her birth. Discovering the truth led her to a downward path. More so, it impacted her relationship with God, and she became angry. She felt lost and didn’t know who she was anymore. The abortion survivor turned to alcohol abuse, poor dating relationships, and an eating disorder until she decided to forgive her biological parents.

Abortion Survivor

Melissa realized that the journey to forgiveness is not a one-time, big event. It’s a decision one has to make every day.

One day, she decided to look for her birth parents to let them know she had forgiven them. Thirty years later, Melissa finally met her biological mom and discovered a truth she never learned. What happened next was a very emotional moment.

15-Year-Old Who Got His Girlfriend Pregnant Paid For Her Abortion And Regrets It

by Christel Berns May 13, 2021

written by Christel Berns

A young man who got his girlfriend pregnant at 15 years old paid for her abortion, regrets it, got drug-addicted, and went to prison. Until he called out to Jesus, and it changed everything.

Teenage Got His Girl Pregnant

Dustin grew up with parents who loved to party. And due to little supervision, he always had access to drugs, alcohol, and time alone with girls, even at a young age. Then at age 15, he got his girlfriend pregnant. He was terrified.

Teenager's girlfriend got pregnant Healing testimony

The parents of Dustin and his girlfriend met, and they decided to get rid of the problem. They told the teens that the child is going to ruin their lives. So, they all decided to have his girlfriend go through an abortion, and Dustin would have to pay for the operation.

Pain After Abortion

Dustin thought he would have had relief after the abortion. But after his girlfriend went through it, his relief turned to heartache instead.

Regrets paying abortion to pregnant girlfriend

Soon after, the young couple couldn’t bear the pain and plunged into a spiral of drug addiction that eventually took his girlfriend’s life. Dustin then began to worsen every day—shooting up heroin, stealing money, and robbing houses.

Crying Out To Jesus

In one particular situation, when he got arrested in jail, he ended up on the suicide floor of the prison. And while suffering from heroin withdrawals inside the penitentiary, Dustin remembered from his youth what his grandmother taught him about Jesus.

So, at that moment, the teen cried out to Jesus for the first time.

“Jesus, please save me. If You’re there, please save me,” he told God. Instantly, something changed inside his heart.

Dustin was released from jail later on. But he didn’t know how to follow Jesus and fell back to his old life and became homeless. Until one day, some men came to him in a homeless shelter and opened up the Bible, and read God’s Word to him.

Dad Shares Son’s Story When Friends Told Him Pregnancy Of Baby With Cleft Lip Should Be Ended

by Rhoda Gayle April 20, 2021

written by Rhoda Gayle

A dad shares his son’s inspirational story when his friends told him that the pregnancy of a baby with cleft lip should be ended.

Matthew Martin

A dad from Texas, Matthew Martin, has the best reply when his friends told him that parents should abort an unborn baby with cleft lip. One weekend, Matt and some of his friends reconnected on Facebook. As their conversation continued, the topic became more sensitive.

Some brought up topics about politics and abortion. That’s when Matthew knew that he had to speak up to become the voice of the unborn.

Abortion

Matthew voiced his opinion that ending pregnancies because of disabilities isn’t right. He wrote, “…due to genetic testing, babies with clefts are being aborted three times more in some countries and even HIGHER in others. The people want a baby, just not that baby. Having a cleft baby of my own, I strongly feel that that isn’t right.”

His friend then answered, “Come on, of all people, you should get why someone would want to abort a cleft baby.”

Startled by how could someone decide whether a baby should be born or not, Mathew did something. Being a dad to a boy with cleft lip, he shared the inspirational story of his son on social media.

Cleft Lip

In April 2018, Matthew, together with his wife Sarah Ashley, welcomed their twin sons into the world. Their first son, Jack, was born with no problem. After a few minutes, their second son, Cam, was born with a cleft lip. But the proud dad didn’t just see the cleft, he saw a tiny human with who God blessed him.

The first few months with their babies were hard since Cam needed additional care and even a series of surgeries. However, Cam showed everyone that he is a fighter. Matthew and Sara couldn’t be more proud as a parent of a cleft lip warrior.

Cam and his twin brother Jack just turned three earlier this month. They are both happy and healthy!

Matthew shared Cam’s story not just to inform his friend of how beautiful it is to be a dad to his baby, but also to inspire everyone. He wanted to let other parents know that babies with a cleft lip are just as incredible and adorable!
