Ashley and Kevin Say Yes to Their Baby's Life on The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart

Tue Jun 17 '08 4:50 pm

Our selfless sidewalk counselor, Philip Leahy, shared a story today about the parents of the unborn child saved at Planned Parenthood:

“I noticed this young man named Kevin walking outside Planned Parenthood and I started talking to him. He and his girlfriend arrived really early before I did. I was telling him how they did not have to go through with the abortion and we could help. Then, praise God, Fr. Imbarrato happened to be walking by with another priest. I told Kevin to hold on a second as I went to call Fr. Imbarrato over.

“Father came over and said something like, ‘Hey man, go in there and rescue your girlfriend and baby…we’ll help you find a job.’ Kevin went into Planned Parenthood while I kept praying. I must have said about 300 prayers to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Praise God! He came out with his girlfriend, Ashley. As I approached them, I noticed she (Ashley) was all smiles! I gave her a model of a baby and Kevin gave me his number to help him find a job.”

Before Philip relayed the story, I noticed a group of people praying on the sidewalk…coincidence?…Definitely not. More like an example of how we can all do our part in ending the holocaust of abortion. Please do your part…be it praying for the end of abortion in front of the mill, attending the upcoming sidewalk counselors training, processing at one of the monthly Helper’s Vigil, or donating to pro-life ministries. Let God inspire your heart as to what you can do to help the unborn and their parents. Every prayer and donation help. If you would like to know how you can help our ministry, please call 266-4100.
