Abort Trafficking

(Grace Williams Lionello, President & CEO, speaks on the link between traffickers and abortion providers.)

Children of the Immaculate Heart is thrilled by last week's Supreme Court decision. We are hopeful for the future of our country and the protection of the unborn. Thanks be to God for this new chapter in our country’s history!

Abortion is very much related to the trafficking industry. We hear firsthand stories from our clients about the abortions they were forced to have while they were in the life of sex trafficking, or even traffickers who have beat them up to the point of killing their unborn children.

Our supporters see the same thing. The following is an amalgamation of two eye-witness accounts (so as to protect their identity) from two different locations across the US within the last few years.

“I must tell you this story.

“I am a stay-at-home mom. My kids have all grown up, so I volunteer my time and support non-profits like CIH. For a few years now, I have consistently prayed in front of an abortion mill.

“One time, I noticed a distinctive van arriving at the car park. It has a revealing depiction of a woman on the side of the van. Out came a man with an ethnic minority young girl and they walked inside. After however long, they came out, hopped onto the vehicle, and left.

“For some reason, that picture stuck with me. ‘There is something fishy going on,’ I said to myself. Lo and behold, a few hours later, THE SAME VAN arrived with THE SAME GUY, but this time, with a DIFFERENT young girl.

“I was disgusted. This was the moment when I saw for myself that the trafficking industry relies on the abortion industry, so their girls can continue to make money for them. These traffickers force women to abort or to keep their babies, calculating for maximum financial gain and psychological control. The abortion industry helps them perpetuate this slavery. It is hideous.

"This has to stop.”
