I want to lend my support to Planned Parenthood. As part of my ministry, I have been active in teen pregnancy prevention, sexuality education and the elimination of sexual violence. Planned Parenthood has been a valued asset to churches and schools in these areas. Their educational services, like their medical care, are excellent.

During my over 50 years of ministry, I have been called on by Planned Parenthood to consult with women who are facing the difficult decision to terminate a pregnancy. Each time, it has been with women who had been with those on a protest line but were, for a variety of reasons, in difficult circumstances.

Before you protest too loudly, you might remember that someone you know may need a choice.
