Monica is a single mother, and faced an unexpected pregnancy.

She did not feel ready for another child because of finances.

Monica started to think abortion was her only viable option, so she searched for information on the internet.

She clicked on a Heroic Media ad that led her to call one of our Pregnancy Help Center partners in Philadelphia.

Monica set up an appointment to come in the next day.

Monica shared that she had never had an abortion before but was told it would be “quick and easy” and that she shouldn’t worry about the details.

She had an ultrasound that very day. Monica was moved as she saw her baby moving around on the screen and heard her child’s precious heartbeat.

She shared that she was emotional because she always told herself she would never go down the path of abortion.

The counselor talked to her about their program which assists her with both material and emotional support.

Monica was empowered to know that she was strong enough to keep this baby despite her circumstances.

After many counseling sessions, Monica told the counselors she felt confident in herself as a woman and as a mother.

She chose life! While she knew she had quite a journey ahead of her, Monica knew she could rely on our partner to be with her every step of the way.

Praise God for this miracle!
