The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. --John 1:5


Christmas and abortion are forever linked as Our Savior chose the womb to come into the world to save us from our sins. Today, the womb is the most dangerous place in the world.


Planned Parenthood's treatment of Christmas should break our hearts and yet give us hope as we close out the year. I share why in this new article: Millions of Women Will be Haunted by This Come Christmas.


Today, there are 15,256 children saved from abortion who will have a Christmas because of your prayers and sacrifice. Play the video in the player above or go to: https://youtu.be/gLRpgRzMwug


This Christmas, we can also celebrate:




  • 186 former abortion workers who are out of the abortion industry

  • 99 abortion facilities that have closed their doors


It's been a busy and big year, and we hit the ground running in 2019 with a big announcement and upcoming events to impact Planned Parenthood's bottom line.

This time of year, donors have asked how they can receive the tax advantages of gifting stock or retirement savings. You can do so easily by emailing lifelegacy@40daysforlife.com.


Thank you for all you have done for abortion-vulnerable mothers and babies in 2018. May God bless you and your family with every blessing in this joyful season!
