Baby Whitney’s Story
One of our Helpers Teri was praying in front of the Cherry Hill Women’s Center (CHWC) –a facility where hundreds of babies are aborted each week –when she saw a mother and daughter walking toward her from the bus stop. She greeted them with the intention of offering them some real help.
Levina had brought her 20 year old daughter, Sabrina to the clinic. She told Teri they had come there to have an abortion, saying her husband would probably leave them if he found out his daughter was pregnant. She told us that she had three pregnancies herself and had placed all but Sabrina in adoptive homes.
Teri commended her for her unconditional love for each of her babies and yet questioned why she would not give her daughter the opportunity to give life to her baby.
She asked Levina how she could justify teaching Sabrina to do the opposite of what she believed to be right and good.
In prayer they surrendered the situation and asked for courage to fight for what was best for the baby.
Teri assured them that The Helpers would be there for as long as needed and would help as much as they can. When Teri dropped them off at home, they went in to tell Sabrina’s father about her pregnancy. The next day Teri called to find mother and daughter happily shopping for the new baby! Sabrina’s father’s reaction was the opposite of what the women thought it would be, and has in fact taken a large role in raising beautiful Whitney who was born on May 17, 2014. The entire family has embraced this beautiful girl and we know God has big plans for this miracle He saved.
Thankfully, The Helpers were there at the CHWC when her mother and grandmother came with the intention of aborting Whitney. Many like them come each day driven by fear believing they have no other choice.
We offer them HOPE and promise to do all we can to help them. We extend our gratitude to all The Helpers Family and we invite others to join us in building a culture of life!
No one will be abandoned, unwanted, judged or condemned. Our hearts unite to embrace our brothers and sisters and let them know our love for them.
