Some pro-lifers have mistakenly concluded that since Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court last year, there would no longer be a March for Life in Washington, D.C. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Jeanne Mancini, president of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, explains that while Roe has been reversed, the battle has just begun for the sanctity of life. Not only do the March for Life organizers want to make abortion unthinkable, but they hope to build a stronger safety net for women facing unexpected pregnancies. This includes maternity homes, pro-life pregnancy resource centers and compassion for those who are in crisis. Since some “blue states” have championed partial-birth abortions, there is obviously so much work left to be done.

Pro-life advocate Melissa Ohden never thought her life would have such a strong purpose or a silver lining. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Melissa, the founder of Abortion Survivors Network, recounts that she was miraculously born alive after an attempted late-term saline abortion failed to kill her. After her birth, Melissa was fortunately adopted by loving parents. As she grew older, she began a journey to reunite with her birth parents and offer forgiveness. Because of Melissa’s testimony, she is able to minister forgiveness and healing to others who have survived their own attempted abortions.
