A Very Special Birth Announcement
I want to share a VERY
special birth announcement with you!
Omar Demetrius White
took his first breath outside of the womb on Monday, May 19,
2008 at Good Samaritan Hospital in Cincinnati, OH. Omar means
“First Born Son”.
Omar was nearly
aborted. Megan, his mother, had made an appointment at the
Planned Parenthood abortion mill and had even given them a
non-refundable deposit.
But Omar's life was
saved because of our Urban Outreach project. In October,
Arnold Culbreath, director of Protecting Black Life — an
outreach of Life Issues Institute — spoke to Megan and several
other African-American women at the local YWCA about abortion.
Because of Arnold's presentation, Megan chose life for her
baby! Sadly, because Megan's decision was contrary to the
YWCA's philosophy on abortion, the caseworker was fired for
allowing Arnold to come in and speak the truth!
Doing the right thing
wasn't easy for Megan. Losing the non-refundable deposit given
to Planned Parenthood was a financial hardship for her. As a
result, the staff of Life Issues Institute pooled our
resources and replaced it. But the reason this baby's life was
saved was because Arnold and Life Issues Institute were able
to reach Megan with the truth about abortion before it was too
late.
Arnold and I visited
Megan yesterday at the hospital, which happened to be Megan's
23rd birthday. What a joy it was for each of us to
hold that precious little baby! And Arnold acted just like a
proud father!
I know you rejoice with
us that Omar's life was spared. But so much more needs to be
done to reach the black community with the facts about
abortion. Please contact Arnold if you'd like to help save
African-American babies in your community. He would love to
help you!
