Two Abortion Facility Workers Quit, Abby Johnson Says [FReepers: we can help them]
LifeNews ^ | 9/1/11 | Steven Ertelt

Posted on 09/02/2011 5:37:07 AM PDT by rhema

Abby Johnson, the former Planned Parenthood abortion facility director, noted on her Facebook page today that two more abortion facility workers have left their positions in the abortion industry.

The news is great for pro-life advocates and an indication of what Johnson said recently was the “Achilles Heel” of the pro-abortion movement — people leaving their positions at abortion centers.

“This week, two abortion clinic workers have taken a huge leap of faith and have left their clinics,” Johnson said. “Both of these former clinic workers are now unemployed. Both workers have children at home and many other financial obligations.”

“It is scary to leave your only source of income,” Johnson continued, “but in the end, they knew it was the only thing to do. They had to do the right thing.”

Johnson is attempting to raise $5,000 to help the two abortion facility workers as they try to take care of the financial obligations of their families and find a job in a legitimate field outside the abortion industry.

“Can you help these two workers get through their next few paychecks while they are looking for employment? There is no amount too large or small. These two workers have trusted God to take care of their needs…God is calling us to care for His children’s needs. Thank you for your support,” Johnson said.

The workers quitting follows Ramona Trevino, who resigned her post at Planned Parenthood as a manager of an abortion-referral center earlier this year.

Johnson recently shared a message with thousands of pro-life advocates about how she thinks abortion can be stopped.

Johnson shared her ideas with more than 5,000 people who tuned in to a national webcast sponsored by 40 Days for Life and she explained how she thinks abortions can be stopped or, at least severely reduced, even within the confines of legalized abortion. With the day that the Supreme Court overturns Roe or upholds some sort of abortion ban or amendment protecting unborn children likely a long way off, webcast viewers were interested in hearing Johnson’s ideas.

Abby said she speaks regularly with people who are former workers at abortion centers or want to get out of the abortion industry and are looking for help to do so. She says she is in contact with such people on a weekly basis and she believes helping abortion staffers leave their jobs is the Achilles Heel for Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry and could be the key to stopping considerable numbers of abortions by closing down abortion centers via lack of staff.

“Planned Parenthood’s greatest fear is that clinic workers will leave and that they will come out against them and that they will air their dirty laundry, just like I did, and they will expose their secrets,” Johnson said.

She explained that the proof to that is in the lawsuit the Bryan, Texas Planned Parenthood abortion business filed against her seeking to silence her from revealing the secrets behind Planned Parenthood after she left the abortion business. Johnson ultimately won the lawsuit and is able to share information about her experiences and insight into Planned Parenthood operations.

Johnson and the 40 Days for Life officials cited another proof — the closing of a Planned Parenthood abortion business in Sherman, Texas that came about after the director of the abortion facility resigned.

You seriously don’t understand the difference between forgiving a sin already repented of and rebuking one taking place righ then and there?

I don’t trust “LifeNews” or Abby Johnson.

Amen. Romans 3:23

I’m not judging you. I’m showing you an error. If you can’t handle your pronouncements being held up to Scripture, don’t make said pronouncements.

They’re nothing but a mouthpiece for National Right to Life, which is nothing any more except a corrupt satellite of the GOP establishment.

It’s all about raising money and gathering up votes for Republican incumbents, not about stopping the daily butchering of 4 to 5 thousands little boys and girls in this country, or restoring respect for the Constitution’s explicit, imperative requirement that all persons be accorded the equal protection of the law.

Sure, they’ll give principle some lip service when it serves their ends, but that’s it.

I too, was among the lost. :)

I encourage everyone here, if they can to help these folks out. For it was Christ who reached out to me and forgave me for my trangressions. :)

The evidence is all over everything they do nowadays, if you honestly look.

They’re pushing “fetal pain” bills now instead of advocating for an end to killing babies...all the babies.

A few weeks back they published a scorecard on the Republican presidential field that was full of untruths, and had serious, serious omissions. Shoot, it even covered for the horrid record of Mitt Romney. Go look it up. Should be easy to find. And then tell me if that’s a truthful document.

Will do. One more quick question: Why would Johnson be any less trustworthy than any other person who pops up in the media? If she was working for the enemy she’d be saying she quit because those awful pro-lifers harassed her until she couldn’t work anymore, not saying she quit because she watched an abortion on ultrasound.

Doesn’t matter. The only one he has to answer to now is God Himself.

All excellent examples. Let's use Venturer's own words:

"Wonder how many Saul helped kill before he saw the light, and why did it take more than a minute to see what was going on? My morality may be pretty sorry, but I don’t need to watch Saul toss a dozen murdered Christians into the ditch to realize it is wrong."

Christians are taught to forgive others as God has forgiven us. Apparently Venturer is not a Christian, for if he were, he would forgive these women.

"And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you, and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma."

Ephesians 4:32-5:2

That’s great that she walked away from helping to butcher babies for money.

But now she’s held up as some sort of pro-life leader, and the things I’ve heard her say, in my opinion, don’t qualify her to be looked to as that.

But one thing I’m positive of: she is helping push legislation that ends with “and then you can kill the baby,” right along with her friends at NRTL.

I asked a question, sir.

Did you trust Nathanson.

I know who he was. I just don’t know enough about him to answer your question. Which is moot anyway, since, having passed on, he’s not running around the country currently acting like some sort of “pro-life leader.”

You’re welcome.

He’s really the most applicable case of a “Saul of Tarsus” conversion, given his background of an abortionist.

I understand your concern over this, but sometimes it does happen for real that those who are involved in the abortion industry have a change of heart and leave.

Blessings,
