LISTEN HERE:
An Ohio-based pro-life pregnancy center, known for its unwavering commitment to protect the unborn, has been targeted by the extreme pro-choice group called ‘Jane’s Revenge.’ The group vandalized the exterior of the facility with messages that demand funding for abortion and even called for the abortion of God.
HerChoice, a steadfast pregnancy center in Bowling Green, Ohio, was subjected to anti-Christian and pro-choice graffiti. The center, which also goes by the name Bowling Green Pregnancy Center (BGPC), offers invaluable services ranging from free pregnancy and STI testing to ultrasounds, as well as parenting classes and supplies for infants and toddlers.
The cruel markings on the building expressed sentiments such as ‘liars,’ ‘fake clinic,’ ‘fund abortion,’ and the extreme ‘abort God.’ Rochelle Sikora, the executive director of HerChoice, made her stance clear by stating, ‘This vile attack is part of a nationwide movement to intimidate, threaten, and terrorize pregnancy centers,’ and further asserted that their love for women in the community would not falter despite these threats.
Sikora encouraged those seeking more information or looking to support their cause with donations to visit the center’s website. Along with the other 100+ pregnancy centers spread across the Buckeye State, these facilities provide at least $15 million worth of services to families in desperate need.
Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, pro-life pregnancy centers have witnessed a surge in attacks. Ohio Right to Life CEO Peter Range stated, ‘Everyone in this state and nation, no matter their political affiliation or stance on abortion, should support centers and organizations that help mothers.’
Recently, the Justice Department charged two individuals for orchestrating an attack on a pro-life pregnancy center in Winter Haven, Florida. However, the notorious Jane’s Revenge group has not always been successful in their destructive endeavors. In June 2022, they mistakenly targeted the wrong address while attempting to deface the office building of Jackson Right to Life.
It’s alarming to see the growing intensity in this national debate, but as conservatives, it’s crucial to hold firm to our guiding principles and continue to support such noble institutions that tirelessly work towards protecting the innocent lives of unborn children.
