Abortion is NOT an ‘American’ issue

Today is International Women’s Day and a great time to take a look at the serious issue of abortion, worldwide.

When looking at what is being done by Christians to reduce the abortion rates, it’s easy to believe that abortion is a major problem / challenge only in America.  Easy, that is, until you gain some perspective;

46-50 million children worldwide lose their lives to abortion each year.

Abortions in the U.S. and Canada amount to 3% (1.4 million) of abortions worldwide.  That means that the remaining 97% of abortions occur somewhere other than North America. People don’t often connect the cause of missions to the problem of abortion, however, we believe the success of missions can dramatically impact the abortion rate.  When a society is transformed morally, far fewer unwanted pregnancies will occur and when they do, the decision to abort will be weighed much differently than in a society that does not cherish the life of an unborn child.

Are you serious about abortion?  Do you want to have a hand in saving the lives of children who’s mothers are on the brink of getting an abortion?  Get involved in missions.  Pray, Give, Go.
