THE Washington Times on Tuesday 9 July carried the story of a baby saved from abortion because of the fast work of a local parish priest and his clever use of social media.

Having learnt that a couple was going to abort their baby he put out an urgent call on social media for a family to adopt the baby.  He had only one day to find a suitable family before the couple would proceed with the abortion.

In that one day, the parish phone rang non-stop and he received 900 emails from people who wanted to adopt the baby.  Read the full story here.
