I was joined by pastors and Students for Life?s campus director for a candle light vigil in front of the "100 years strong" sign at Planned Parenthood in San Luis Obispo.

Planned Parenthood recently marked the 100th anniversary of their founding, but their brand is at an all-time low ? and still sinking. As for ?100 years strong,? Planned Parenthood has lost staff in San Luis Obispo and is beginning to reduce their business hours.

An evangelical pastor told the crowd, "Those who support abortion support something irrational. The only hope is to pray, speak the truth in love, and give witness to the gospel."

Kirt and Katie Collins lead the campaign here. Kirt said, "We never imagined the impact that prayer would have here -- but couples are turning around. Your presence makes a difference, even if you never see that difference."
