“Nancy” is a sweet woman, who was a “save” (a mom who chose LIFE, instead of abortion for her baby). Not long after she chose life for her 3 month old developing baby, she called Chrissie (the sidewalk counselor who first talked her out of the abortion) and said that she desperately needed food for her and her two children for the next 2-3 weeks until they moved to a new town and started a new job. Chrissie, being out ministering at the abortion mill 5 days every week, asked if our family could find help for “Nancy”. Of course, I jumped on that aspect of our pro-life ministry without hesitation!
Early this morning, our children (pictured above with our supplies) and I headed over to deliver the food to “Nancy”! She and her family were very gracious and very much in need. While we were there, we also got to meet her 3 year old daughter, “Maggie”. This little girl would just look at me and say “thank you” over and over with a sweet look on her face!
Shortly after I left, Chrissie called and told me that she had heard from “Nancy “, who said how grateful she was for connecting all of us so that they could receive the food that they needed. As soon as I hung up with Chrissie, I got a text from ” Nancy ” that said, “No words can tell you how I feel for a person to drive all this way (40 minutes) to bring a stranger food. You are truly an angel.” Are we angels? No. We are simple Christians who are willing to help these moms in need. What part can YOU play in this ministry to moms and babies? Are you willing to step out of your comfort zone and help those who need to see the Jesus we love represented in acts of love and compassion? If you do, your life will never be the same. It will be changed for the Glory of God!
