To help, or not to help....THAT.. is the question

At Dr.Emily's abortion mil, there's one thing you can't do, and that's passing the line, the line that separates the sidewalk from the driveway. When you do that, you can get arrested for trespassing. That's the law, so we follow it, but there's moments where you really wish you could just walk all over their huge parking lot.
 There's girls that, when they walk out the door, they kneel down in pain, there's girls that can't take the stress and stand there and cry, and there's girls that are being pulled out by their boyfriend or mother. The hard part is watching it, and not being able to reach them and give them a hug, give them the gospel, or comfort them, because they are far inside the parking lot.
Two weeks ago, there was one girl who walked out, sat down lying on the wall, and started crying. I wanted to go and run to her, but there was that line that separated me from her. The worst part was that one of the three clinic escorts that day just stood there, pacing back and forth near us. Why didn't he help her? One of the pro-lifers (the one in the picture) said to the clinic escort, " Go help her! She needs help! Why don't you ask her what's wrong?" And did he do it? Nah, he started pacing again.....my bad for thinking the escort would think about helping a women crying on their floor.

  2. Keep up the good work!
    We protest at an Abortion Clinic here In Raleigh, NC, and we are not allowed to go past a certain point as well, or we will get arrested.
    It is SO sad to see Mothers going in to murder their precious babies.
    We have a sound system and all, so we exhort them, sing, and pray for them.

  4. Lauren, I love the way (in your church) the whole family goes and does like a church service right their in front of the clinic. It was such a great experience to be able to do it with you all, but, of coarse, extremely sad to see that parking lot full of people that ignored the truth and went on to exterminate their pregnancies. I will be praying for you all and your ministry there, and please pray for us as we sidewalk counsel. Its easy to get discouraged but never give up hope and may we always pray fervently for these lost souls to see the light! It's not in vain!
