20

See that thingy on the right? Yeah. It's right there. There. You can't miss it. I am so grateful that I once again have been training for the triathlon and look forward to running the race to bring awareness to the pain of abortion and the need for abortion recovery. I will grieve in a positive way the 20 years since my abortion. The journey I walk is difficult and amazing at the same time. God has redeemed so much of the pain and my Aubrey is with Him.

I am raising funds for the Pregnancy Helpline near me. They do wonderful things for women facing unplanned pregnancies and are looking to start more programs. That kind of support and help is what I wanted 20 years ago.

If you can make a donation, say a prayer, or do a cheer on September 4th I would appreciate it!!

I don't normally pray, but I will pray for you and your family, Carla. :)

You're very brave. Cheers: Car-la! Car-la! Car-la!

I don't have any money to donate, but I will send your something on September 5th to let you know that I'm thinking about your and your family. :)
