Progress

WOODBRIDGE — If it were not for the men and women standing every morning in front of 228 Main St., you might not know the two-story Victorian house is a clinic that performs surgical abortions up to the 14th week of pregnancy.

Motorists will be seeing a lot of more these protesters this month as the international pro-life organization 40 Days For Life holds its 40-day, 24-hour vigil in front of the clinic from Sept. 26 to Nov. 1.

"Another good reason for praying is that the public sees us out there," she added. "A year or 10 years later they may remember people praying in front of the abortion clinic and that may change their mind."

And that, clinic manager Sabina Vasquez said, is what's happening.

"(The women) are embarrassed by them," she said. "One woman who was just here said she was very uncomfortable that the guy was shouting at her. To a lot of patients it changed their mind right away and they they never come back. It happens a lot."

The rest here.
