One of the volunteers at the 40 Days for Life vigil in Lisbon said a young woman left the abortion center and wanted to talk.

She said she was pregnant with her first child ... and scheduled for an abortion. She said she knows it isn't right, but her boyfriend is the one pushing the abortion. The volunteer asked her, "Do you have a doctor?"

"No," she said. The vigil participant made a quick phone call and set up an appointment with a physician.

After a consultation with the doctor, the young woman had joyful news to share: "The baby is going to be born!"
