“Abortion is a scourge that kills many children and moms, it kills more than COVID. It's relentless,” said Liz Martínez, a 33-year-old Colombian mother who almost two years ago was about to abort her daughter Lucrecia.
Martínez is one of the mothers who receive help from the Moms 40 Coalition for Life Foundation, which has ties to the 40 Days for Life prayer campaign that helps pregnant women in vulnerable situations.
“I thank God for the foundation. They have saved many lives. Without them I would have had an abortion and I wouldn’t have forgiven myself,” Martínez told ACI Prensa, CNA’s Spanish language news partner.
“I thank God because if it weren't for these people I would have killed my daughter, and she’s the best thing that ever happened to me. She has light brown skin and green eyes, beautiful, a bundle of energy, but she’s my daughter. I thank God, He knows what he’s doing,” she said.
