Poll: Americans Support Late-term Abortion Ban 2-1, Just 27% Opposed
A new Washington Post poll shows Americans support a late-term abortion ban prohibiting abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy by a margin of 56 to 27 percent. Just 27 percent of those polled by the newspaper say they oppose banning late-term abortions — a position taken by President Barack Obama and Planned Parenthood.

Mom Works at Pregnancy Center That Saved Her Son From Abortion
Rachel Tipton Boyd, or Tippy, as friends like to call her, is a living example of God’s grace.
She was born into a loving Christian family and grew up as a pastor’s daughter. During her adolescent years, Rachel developed strong faith and a heart to serve. As a 20-year-old she traveled to Japan on a mission trip. In 2007 she returned for a summer internship, and at 21, she decided to move to Japan as a full-time missionary with “Youth With a Mission.” Before the dream of her heart became a reality, Rachel went through a major identity crisis. For two months she lost direction and was caught up in a life of drinking, partying, and rebellion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/07/25/mom-works-at-pregnancy-center-that-saved-her-son-from-abortion/
