Family members praying at the 40 Days for Life vigil watched as a car with a young woman and her mother drove slowly past them.

A few minutes later, they returned ... and entered the abortion center.

The volunteers reacted by praying even more fervently.

Not long afterward, the younger women walked outside, smiled at the volunteers and joyfully called out, "I'm having a baby!"

Her mother followed close behind, raising her arms in the air as she exclaimed, "We're having a baby!"

The vigil participants actually cheered and applauded.

Mark, one of the 40 Days for Life leaders, said, "This was another case where their hearts had been moved simply by the visible witness of volunteers praying on the sidewalk."
