Abby Johnson, the former Planned Parenthood abortion facility director, noted on her Facebook page today that two more abortion facility workers have left their positions in the abortion industry.
The news is great for pro-life advocates and an indication of what Johnson said recently was the “Achilles Heel” of the pro-abortion movement — people leaving their positions at abortion centers.
“This week, two abortion clinic workers have taken a huge leap of faith and have left their clinics,” Johnson said. “Both of these former clinic workers are now unemployed. Both workers have children at home and many other financial obligations.”
“It is scary to leave your only source of income,” Johnson continued, “but in the end, they knew it was the only thing to do. They had to do the right thing.”
Johnson is attempting to raise $5,000 to help the two abortion facility workers as they try to take care of the financial obligations of their families and find a job in a legitimate field outside the abortion industry.
“Can you help these two workers get through their next few paychecks while they are looking for employment? There is no amount too large or small. These two workers have trusted God to take care of their needs…God is calling us to care for His children’s needs. Thank you for your support,” Johnson said.
The workers quitting follows Ramona Trevino, who resigned her post at Planned Parenthood as a manager of an abortion-referral center earlier this year.
Johnson recently shared a message with thousands of pro-life advocates about how she thinks abortion can be stopped.
Johnson shared her ideas with more than 5,000 people who tuned in to a national webcast sponsored by 40 Days for Life and she explained how she thinks abortions can be stopped or, at least severely reduced, even within the confines of legalized abortion. With the day that the Supreme Court overturns Roe or upholds some sort of abortion ban or amendment protecting unborn children likely a long way off, webcast viewers were interested in hearing Johnson’s ideas.
Abby said she speaks regularly with people who are former workers at abortion centers or want to get out of the abortion industry and are looking for help to do so. She says she is in contact with such people on a weekly basis and she believes helping abortion staffers leave their jobs is the Achilles Heel for Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry and could be the key to stopping considerable numbers of abortions by closing down abortion centers via lack of staff.
“Planned Parenthood’s greatest fear is that clinic workers will leave and that they will come out against them and that they will air their dirty laundry, just like I did, and they will expose their secrets,” Johnson said.
She explained that the proof to that is in the lawsuit the Bryan, Texas Planned Parenthood abortion business filed against her seeking to silence her from revealing the secrets behind Planned Parenthood after she left the abortion business. Johnson ultimately won the lawsuit and is able to share information about her experiences and insight into Planned Parenthood operations.
Johnson and the 40 Days for Life officials cited another proof — the closing of a Planned Parenthood abortion business in Sherman, Texas that came about after the director of the abortion facility resigned.
This is very good news. One of the ways we can all assist is by praying for them. ;-)
ping to self to review later when at a computer that allows access to this subject.
I wouldn’t send an ex-murderer a dime, but a prayer that God will forgive them is appropriate.
"Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display His unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on Him and receive eternal life."
Jesus found a place for Paul in His live-giving ministry, and He'll find a place for these two women.
Man, you guys really know that religious stuff don’t you?
I guess if these ladies had been preaching God’s word instead of killing his children I would support them.
If Jesus could forgive and use the former murderer Paul in His ministry, He'll forgive and employ these two former abortion clinic workers.

I don’t know where you received your morality, but I’m going to hazard a guess that you had two loving parents who took you to church. Everyone wasn’t so lucky. Some people got their morality from the television and public schools. Can you really condemn these people for taking a job that they have been taught since childhood was right and good, especially after they have seen the light?
We should be happy for them and welcome them to our side with open arms. Now that they realize what they have done, they will punish themselves far more than your condemnation ever could.
"Man, you guys really know that religious stuff don’t you?
What does religion have to do with protecting the lives of innocent un-born children. Either it is the right thing to do or it is not.
Without the willingness to forgive others, you might as well save your prayers and save your breath, and religion has nothing to do with it.
Get off FR and go read your Bible. Your idea of repentance is flawed to say the least.
Thanks for the advice.
I will be sure to heed it .
When pigs fly.
Everybody is full of advice today.
Wonder how many they helped kill before they saw the light, and why did it take more than a minute to see what was going on?
My morality may be pretty sorry, but I don’t need to watch them toss a dozen unborn into the dumpster to realize it is wrong.
As I said, I will pray God will forgive them.
Well, here's some more: Don't post on a web forum if you don't want people to comment on what you say.
The Freepers who have said you would have told the Apostle Paul to take a flying leap have it right. Moses was a murderer, too. These women have had a Damascus Road or burning bush experience of their own and are doing the right thing in response to it. If you think you are doing God's work by denigrating them for it, you have a serious problem you need to resolve with God.
Think of the most shameful sin you have ever committed, or one you now commit that you are ashamed of. Now imagine that you left your job in the worst economy in daceades rather than do that immoral filth over and over, and someone claiming to represent God told you that you were just the same filthy loser you were before you gave up your career to honor God and deserved no help or regard. Would you think that person had a clue? Or would you think they were self-righteous and unbiblical?
How many Christians did Paul murder before he decided it was wrong? Are you better than Paul?
How many Egyptians did Moses murder before he figured out it was wrong? Actually, he was afraid of getting caught, that's why he ran when he found out people knew about the murder, not when he realized he had murdered. Are you better than Moses?
How many people did David murder so he could shtupp their wives before he figured out it was wrong? Are you better than David?
As I said, I will pray God will forgive them.
Why would a perfect and holy God forgive them if they're too scummy to meet your highfallutin standards? Do you plan to begin your prayer by saying "God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector these former abortion clinic workers?"
So I judge them and you judge me.
That’s about right , Lets call it a draw.
