Changing One Heart for Many – Week 19
Just joining us? Go here to catch up and join the movement!If you've visited me in the last couple of days, you know that I just wrote about why I'm involved in the fight against abortion. Not only do I see it as an horrific loss of life as far as babies are concerned, but I also see it as "loss of life" for those post-abortive women (and men). Many are "walking wounded", suffering from what is now known as "Post-Abortion Stress Syndrome" or "PASS" (an off-shoot of the better known "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder").

There were those whose interests found them on the stage in the latest school play, or hashing out debates in school government. There was even a Homecoming Queen among them.

Changing One Heart for Many – Week 18
Just joining us? Go here to catch up and join the movement!With my heart in a better place this week, than last, I sit down to write this post. I hope as you read that you find your own heart beating with better, more eternal, perspective, as well.I received an update from AUL this week, with news of a "re-energizing" of the pro-life movement.
