SPOTLIGHT: Fighting For Life In Your Community
Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg
16 years ago, Planned Parenthood opened an abortion facility in Aurora, Illinois. On the anniversary of this opening, pro-life activists held a prayer vigil outside of the building featuring Pastor Randy Schoof of Warehouse Church and Eric Scheidler, Executive Director of Pro-Life Action League.
In his speech, Pastor Schoof encouraged those in attendance to continue to pray for the end of abortion, to plead for God’s mercy, and to continue the work of sidewalk counseling outside of abortion sites.
Eric Scheidler, despite the backlash and difficulty of working in the pro-life movement, chooses to see the optimism in the fight for life. He comments,
As grim of an anniversary as this is, the incredible miracles that have happened, the way that God has brought people together, the way He has saved children from abortion, the way He has saved couples, saved families out here. It’s truly inspiring and something that all of us can do even if our general assembly is hell-bent to expand abortion as much as they can.
This is an inspiring and informative episode you won’t want to miss.
