After Roe vs. Wade and legal abortions began in 1973, the number of U.S. abortions has ranged between about 1 million and as many as 1.5 million abortions per year. But that's just in the U.S. In a time when experts say that birth control pills, when used correctly, can prevent pregnancy with about 91 to 99 percent effectiveness - people are killing their unborn children in an unimaginable and unnecessary, ongoing holocaust.
Here is a really detailed look at what of God's images (developing children) look like at each stage of development, showing the astonishing, week-by-week changes in the womb. Go to 1:57 of this video - to weeks 11 and 12 to see what is already a very well-developed baby - this, when the horror of the average U.S. abortion takes place by 13 weeks. The is not a blob of tissue, but a living human being people are killing!

As Christians, we need to do all we can to prevent this tragedy, AND to come alongside young women who find themselves in unplanned pregnancies!
