Small Victories’ Arrows Saving Lives, 
Continuing the Legacy

December 27th, 2010
Foreword by Angela Michael

   What an awesome letter to receive a day after Christmas from a young lady that was touched by our ministry through one of our 13 arrows. It’s a joy to know that our children are seeing their parents living out their theology and making it their biography in a war zone.

            One day those shining arrows will come running up over our backsides when we go down on the barbwire fence fighting valiantly for the lives of many preborn babies and their mothers in a culture of Life vs Death.

“Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from Him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.” Psalm 127:3-5

 “Hi Angela,

            My name is J*****, I am a friend of your daughter *******. She and I were in Madrigals together in high school and I worked at ********* for 4 years. She and I went caroling last weekend and we talked about you and the babies you've brought home recently and how adorable they are. I mentioned to her that my husband, K**, and I were considering adopting a little girl in a few years, and she said I should get in touch with you, because you might be able to help us out (we have no idea how to even get started.) I've met you once; you and your daughter and I went swimming at the pool. I believe I was pregnant at the time with my son C****, who is now 2.5 years old. We also have a 15 month old, R****. 

            “I wanted to let you know that I really admire what you do, and that seeing from a distance through stories from your daughter encouraged me not to give up my C ****. I was only in high school at the time that I was pregnant with him, which I'm sure you understand is a very difficult time to have a child. My (now) husband and I weren’t sure what to do, and abortion was something we thought about. But after a few weeks of talking to your daughter at work, and doing a lot of thinking (mind you, I never told your daughter I was considering this option) I decided against it. I couldn’t bear the thought of murdering the child God had blessed me with. And what a blessing he is.

            “C**** is a wonderful 2.5 year old boy today, and he and his brother are the absolute light of my life. I think about what life would have been like without them a lot... missed opportunities, changed plans... but I really don’t think I'd be as happy as I am now with my 2 beautiful boys.

            I hope your mission is going well, and I just wanted to let you know that you ARE doing something amazing! I saw your website today for the first time and it brought a tear to my eye. God Bless you and your family, and I hope you had a wonderful Christmas celebrating the most amazing birth yet!
