One of the counselors outside the abortion facility was able to catch a young woman as she and a companion were driving out.

The volunteer asked them to pull across the street ? first of all, they didn?t want to block the driveway. But they also wanted to avoid the abortion center?s staff member, who started yelling at them.

The woman said she was advised to have an abortion because of medical issues. The counselor listened with concern, but also told her about life-affirming medical assistance that could help her and her baby through the pregnancy.

That eased her mind considerably, as she was both relieved and excited to receive the information.

?All glory to God!? said one of the Charleston team members. ?Another precious baby's life was saved!?
