Grand Rapids, Mich., Jun 13, 2013 / 03:03 am
An encounter with a pro-life center that had previously served as both a house of worship and an abortion clinic at different times in its history has left a lasting impression on one pro-life leader.
Although it may not be apparent to those who pass by, the building in Grand Rapids, Mich., that is now the headquarters of the pro-life organization LIFE International has a complex past.
The building was rented in 1994 by an abortionist who turned it into "the largest abortion facility in western Michigan," David Bereit told CNA on June 12.
The National Director of the 40 Days for Life campaign, Bereit learned the history of the building in 2004, during a visit which took place only days after the final abortions had been performed in the building.
