Deborah Gyapong: Be peaceful, prayerful and loving---that makes you unforgettable

Be peaceful, prayerful and loving---that makes you unforgettable

Former Planned Parenthood employee talks about her conversion:


Johnson: The only way to communicate with pro-choice friends, family or colleagues is in a peaceful, prayerful and loving way. If you have read my book, the people who had a condemning presence outside of Planned Parenthood only drove me and my colleagues there to "protect" these women even more.

It was always the presence and the words from the peaceful, prayerful and loving people on the opposite side of the fence and abortion issue as me that made me think and even made me really enjoy them.

I knew they wanted the same thing that I did; they desperately wanted to help these women (even though I thought they were going about helping them in the wrong way). Despite my pro-choice mindset, these people stood out to me and their actions and words stuck with me, all the way to the day I left Planned Parenthood.

The most influential thing a pro-lifer can do is love, pray and have a peaceful presence at the clinics; one of the major reasons that I left Planned Parenthood and am actively standing up for life today is because of these attributes of certain pro-lifers that never gave up on me.

My words to every pro-lifer would be "Don't give up!" and present yourself in such a way that the Planned Parenthood workers/pro-choice advocates will be drawn to you and won't forget you, because that's what will change hearts.
