Gems at Salt Lake Community College

He was a mature adult with a wife and a new baby.  He had a much firmer grasp of reality than his younger fellow students.

Man oh man, check out the nuts at Salt Lake Community College!  But with all the weirdo comments, there were several beautiful gems.

A grandchild’s life in the balance.  A middle-aged woman was taking pictures of our signs so she could show them to her pregnant 18-year-old daughter, Brittany.  She was worried, because her daughter had told her, “I could just get an abortion.”

This mother believed her daughter needed some encouragement and she was so happy we were there to provide evidence she could use to save her grandchild’s life.

Unwanted.  The pro-aborts insisted that it is best to kill the disabled, because no one wants them.  Hearing this, Dana teared up and told us that her late brother Alex had Down syndrome.  That day would have been his 17th birthday.  She missed her brother and wanted him back.

Black genocide.  In response to black abortion statistics a husband and father said, “Think about how that would have changed the demographic in the United States! … You’re looking at far more than 20 million people. … It’s a form of genocide for the black community.”

Accountability.  A young woman standing in the midst of the the nut job group asked a thoughtful question.  “When does accountability come in?  When does a person have to say, “I messed up and I have to take responsibility for my actions?”

Another young woman replied, “We don’t have education.”

“But that too is an excuse. When should we be held accountable for our actions?”  Her calm, quiet words disarmed the group and they didn’t have much of an argument for her.

Freedom of speech for all.  A Hispanic young man spoke with CBR’s Jackie Hawkins, “They told you to go away?  They want to take away your freedom of speech?  There’s a sign over there that says, ‘We don’t need another white man to tell us what to do with our bodies.’  What about me, a Mexican?  What about a woman or a black person?  To me it makes no sense at all.  I appreciate you guys expressing what you believe in.”

It makes sense.  A red haired young man said to the pro-abortion group, “I used to be with you guys, but I talked to them and it makes sense.”

Heard in passing.

  • “It’s just so powerful. There’s really no argument that you can make after seeing this.”  (female student)
  • “I totally agree with you.” (female student)
  • “I’m glad you guys are doing this.” (female student)

Who’s your boss?  At the end of the day, a maintenance worker popped out of her utility buggy and called out the pro-aborts, “You guys think these guys are racist?!  Do you know the roots of Planned Parenthood?  Planned Parenthood is racist!”

The compassionate, caring, tolerant crowd were enraged.  “Are you on the clock?  Who do you work for?  We can get you fired!”

“I don’t care,” she shot back.  “You can’t fire me, I’m working for the Lord!”

Amen.  So do we.  And as long as both the Lord and you are willing, we will keep winning hearts, changing minds, and saving lives!  But you have to be willing.  Please support our work or we have to stay home.

Thank you.  Please keep praying.
