Heart of Our Work

Testimonies of grace, truth, and love from our team at Right to Life Michiana.

July 2024

Dr. Roberts, a long-time volunteer and supporter of the local pro-life movement signed up for a shift to staff our educational exhibit at the St. Joseph County 4-H Fair. While interacting with fairgoers young and old, he was approached by Kristina.


Kristina shared with Dr. Roberts that her out-of-state daughter was pregnant and near the end of her second trimester.

 

Although her daughter was eagerly awaiting the birth of her little one, her doctor grew concerned about a potential medical risk and advised her to induce prematurely. After learning the circumstances, Dr. Roberts was able to offer resources to Kristina, encouraging her with the experience he had gained over the years in his own obstetrics training. He was able to discuss with her the options he knew that often give children the greatest chance of survival while also prioritizing the mother’s health.


Kristina thanked Dr. Roberts profusely and left to call her daughter.


Imagine how many women are led to choose abortion when challenges arise, not thinking to consider all options!
The pro-life movement has never denied that challenges occur from time to time in pregnancies, but we affirm our duty to do everything we can to uphold all lives at stake.


In sharing this with Kristina, Dr. Roberts expressed the heart of the pro-life movement, lending a compassionate and life-affirming perspective. Talk about being in the right place at the right time!
