?It is with great joy that I report to you that a baby's life was spared from abortion by the grace of God ? through the efforts and prayers of several pro-lifers,? said John in Cleveland.

Three people were praying outside the abortion center when they had an opportunity to talk to a young woman ? and offer her their help. She had already paid for an abortion.

?The security guard along with two employees came out to the street to discourage the mother from talking to the pro-lifers,? John said, ?but despite these tactics, they persevered.

They talked for almost two hours that afternoon ? and an area pastor spoke to the young woman later in the evening. The next morning, she returned to the abortion center ? to collect her refund.
