MO, IL
3 saves onsite
ultrasound 2
pro-lifers It was
hot and muggy as we set up our pregnancy outreach to the
abortion-bound mothers. God was answering prayers early on. Two Black
American women walked back out and confirmed they were keeping the
baby. Thank you Jesus!
We intercepted Denise
and her mother from
Illinois
. They told us the baby was dead. We offered to show them an
ultrasound. Once inside, we quickly scanned her protruding tummy and
on the screen there appeared her approx 20
week old baby. I then searched for the heartbeat. It came up
approx. 160 beats per minute, good and strong. There was a sense of
relief, but I heard whimpering, then sobbing. I turned to see her mom
crying. She then began telling us this horrible situation.
Her daughter Denise was about 10 weeks into the pregnancy when
the f.o.b. came to her home. She was alone. He began beating her
senselessly. He first kicked her in her stomach hoping to kill the
unborn baby. He shouted at her. He did not want anyone to know he was
the father. Between the blows she kept begging him to stop; she
wouldn’t tell. Before she lost consciousness, she promised him she
would not put his name on the birth certificate if he would allow her
to live.
He proceeded to raise the brick he held in one hand up in the
air when Denise’s older sister walked in the house calling her name.
He threw the brick onto her face and ran out the back door and left
her for dead. Her sister followed a trail of blood not knowing what
she was about to find crumpled in a back bedroom corner. She dialed
for the police. They kept her on the line until they arrived. There
was so much blood the police asked her where the body was. They called
for an ambulance as she still had a pulse, but they thought the worst.
As the mother was telling me this horror story, I kept checking
for movement and measurements. This baby was ALIVE! The mother
finished the story by telling me they never found the boyfriend; he
was on the run. But since this happened, Denise had not felt the baby,
so they assumed the worst. They thought it was dead from the beating. “No
Ma’am,” and we watched in awe as this little presumably baby
girl moved and put her hand up to her mouth and sucked her finger. “She
is very much alive.” “Praise Jesus!” the mother cried out.
We were all tearing up. But Denise, the pregnant girl, was smiling and
happy.
We went over follow-up with her doctor and resources we would
help with. I told her I would give her my little girl’s baby things
she has grown out of as they were brand new. They were elated! We were
so happy to see this little girl auditioning for her life. Here I am
mommy, I’m alive! We walked them to their car, hugged, and cried
tears of joy. “You’re
gonna make it Denise. God loves you and He loves that baby.” We
watched them drive off. Praise God!
The guard let us know there was another save this morning.

saves onsite
ultrasound 3
pro-lifers As soon as we
were finished setting up the resource van, a deluge of rain fell from
the gritty skies. We were soaked, but we kept trying to intervene for
the innocents.
A young girl was being forced inside by the bigger boyfriend.
He ran past us in the alley and declined our offer to help them. She
was sobbing and covering her mouth. I walked up to her holding our
baby’s picture and told her we could help her. She whispered, “He’s
going to beat me if I don’t.” I told her, “You
don’t have to kill your baby for him.” I walked up to the
catwalk and he was standing there grinning. “Don’t
make this young girl pick you over her baby. Don’t you dare threaten
to beat her if she does not kill this baby.”
He pushed on inside as the guard and another foul-mouthed girl
smoking gazed on. “Where is
her choice? She is being forced to kill her baby. Why don’t you help
her?” The smoking girl cursed me out, flashed her backside to
me, and went back inside. The guard slammed the door shut. God was
still in control.
It was a double-header for two
Missouri
girls we tried to offer another choice to. “No
thanks, we don’t want our babies,” and they laughed and went
inside. God was still on the throne. We kept intervening.
A Black American couple came back out. Daniel met them on the
front sidewalk. All three of them walked over to me and asked for an
ultrasound. They did one inside but would not let her see it. “They
just told me how much it would cost.”
Bam! As soon as we placed the transducer on her swollen tummy,
her little face appeared on the screen. “Mommy,
meet your baby!” Leanne peered
over and her boyfriend looked on. I asked the young man if he was
okay. “Yeah, just
worried.” “About what?” I asked. “How
are we going to handle this?” “Let God do the worrying.”
After measuring, Leanne asked if the baby was okay. “The
baby appears to be approximately 20 weeks.” Leanne interjected, “That
would be about right. Can you tell?” “It appears to be a girl, but
we want the doctor to confirm everything.” We went over
resources and they seemed more relaxed. They thanked us and told us
they would keep in touch with their needs list.

nuns praying rosary
The humidity was a little lower after a cool front supposedly
came through. It was still hot as we did our reconnaissance mission
around this deathcamp. The two little nuns kept praying as we kept
walking and talking to abortion-bound moms and their accomplices.
Christy and friend
came out and we met them in the alley. “Would
you like to see a picture of your baby?” I pointed to the van
and they asked if it was free. “Absolutely!”
They came inside the van and we immediately scanned her tummy. They
were college students from
Tennessee
. “There,” I pointed
to the screen. They smiled. We listened to the strong heartbeats
approx 158. This baby was not shy. She appeared to be a girl. Christy
laughed. “I’m going to
need help.” “We can do that.” We exchanged information and
resources. They accepted the literature to read. They had a long drive
home. They both thanked us as we walked them to their car. Praise God!
The Black American couple we spoke to earlier came back out;
they didn’t do it. They confirmed and accepted our literature as
they walked to their car behind the building. Thank you Jesus!
After we arrived back home, we received a call from a
distressed pregnant girl, Cierra
from
East St. Louis
. She was 5 months pregnant
and homeless. Her mother was a crack addict and it was no longer safe
to stay with her so Cierra was walking the streets. We assured her we
could help if she gave us a little time. After a few phone calls, we
found a shelter with an opening and we arranged transportation for
this young girl. We prayed for Divine intervention for her mother. She
thanked us and promised to let us know if she needed help with
anything else.

Obama/
Biden rally Most
of our ministry team was with us storming the gates in
Springfield
,
Illinois
where Obama was announcing his running mate. Read: “Small
Victories Exposes the Truth at Obama/Biden Rally”
A small remnant stood in the gap trying to keep count and
offering other options rather than killing their babies. The religious
bullies were there doing a good job screaming and yelling the babies
inside. Throughout the morning, two mothers left the mill but refused
to confirm or accept our literature. We prayed they changed their mind
on the abortions and were sparing their babies as they drove off. It
was steaming hot on the sidewalk.
Thank You God for all the lives that were saved, changed, and
touched this past week. Thank You for making a way for our mission
trip to
Springfield
to let the people who attended the rally and the law enforcement know
what abortion looks like. Wake ‘em up Lord before it’s too late.
Dear God, just like in Jeremiah You said the only reason You would not
destroy
Jerusalem
was because there was a remnant that stood in the gap. Maybe that is
why You have not destroyed our nation, let alone
Granite City
, yet. Thank you Lord.
Approx.
140 babies killed. 10 babies saved. Approx. 12 pro-lifers cared enough
to show up throughout the weeks’ massacre. 2855 saves since January
2000 and 26 babies have been adopted through Small Victories!
I had to laugh when I received this and must share. If you
could only experience the scrub-board streets and sink-hole size
potholes in
Granite City
as we trudge through them everyday in our 21-year-old ultrasound van.
Enjoy!
~Two
Little Boys~
After a hardy rainstorm filled all the potholes in the streets
and alleys, a young mother watched her two little boys playing in the
puddle through her kitchen window. The older of the two, a five year
old lad, grabbed his sibling by the back of his head and shoved his
face into the water hole.
As the boy recovered and stood laughing and dripping, the
mother runs to the yard in a panic. “Why
on earth did you do that to your little brother?!” she asks as
she shook the older boy in anger. “We
were just playing ‘church’ mommy,” he said. “And
I was just baptizing him.....in the name of the Father, the Son and
in...the hole-he-goes.”
