Real Help for Suffering Women - Intro

Yesterday, I was riding the D.C. Metro as usual, making my way to Union Station. The train I was on had stopped to drop off/pick up more passengers, and the train going the opposite way was also stopped. I glanced through the windows and saw a black and white poster in the other train. There was the picture of a lady and the title of the poster was:

"You don't have to suffer alone."

Hmm, wouldn't that be amazing if it were an advertisement offering help for women suffering after an abortion? I thought. But it probably isn't. I couldn't see the other words on the poster, and I began zoning out, waiting for the train to move.

Right before we pulled out from the stop, the people standing in front of the poster moved so that I could see the rest of the advertisement. It had the phone number: 1-888-456-HOPE and, in fact, it WAS an advertisement for post-abortive healing! I couldn't believe it, because I'd never seen anything like that in the Metro before.

I just Googled the phone number, and it turns out it is sponsored by Project Rachel. The website is: www.hopeafterabortion.com

Look for a longer post about the negative effects that abortion has on women, but that there IS hope and healing. Pro-lifers are waiting with loving arms to help these women!
