April 7, 2013 Dear ProLife Colleague, My wife Joyce and I watched the movie “October Baby” the other night. Why so late? Old people are sometimes just late at things! It finally came up on Netflix! We didn’t have a clue about the story line, just knew it was a prolife film. About half way thru it we were looking at each other saying “What’s this about, anyway?” But by the end, we knew what it was about, and felt the message of forgiveness and reconciliation was very genuine and valuable. In the end, we loved the story. Then today I watched episode 9 of “Surrender the Secret,” in which these 5 post-abortive women watch the movie together and interact with one of the actual actresses from the movie. Those women were touched by “October Baby” much more quickly and deeply than Joyce or I—because they have been there. They quickly picked up on the feeling of guilt and despair, –because they have been there—and on the freedom brought by forgiveness and restoration of relationships and self-worth—because they are in the process of going there. And the testimony of the actress (the movie “birth mother”), who accepted this role as from the hand of God, and surrendered her own secret (after 20 years of silence) was very moving. So Episode 9 turned into a remarkable story. 43% of American women of reproductive age have had an abortion. Are you among them? Have you found freedom from guilt and remorse, and come into the world of forgiveness and restoration? These 6 women are on that journey. Why not join them.
