Late-Term Abortion Clinic Permanently Closes, Marks Huge Victory
In a significant victory for the pro-life movement and a testament to the power of faith and perseverance, the Boulder Abortion Clinic, once a notorious hub for late-term abortions, has permanently closed its doors. This closure marks the end of an era led by Warren Hern, a figure whose career was defined by the termination of unborn lives, often up to 36 weeks of gestation. For over 50 years, Hern’s clinic stood as a beacon for those advocating for abortion rights, but it now stands as a symbol of hope for those who cherish the sanctity of life.
Warren Hern, who astonishingly held academic positions at the University of Colorado, dedicated his life to what he described as “helping women to have safe abortions.” His textbook, “Abortion Practice,” served as a manual for those wishing to follow in his footsteps. Yet, despite his influence, the clinic’s closure is a resounding answer to the prayers of countless pro-life advocates who have tirelessly campaigned for the protection of the unborn.
Troy Newman, chief of Operation Rescue, expressed profound gratitude for this development, stating, “We cannot praise God enough for the closure of this monstrous killing center.” For decades, Operation Rescue and other pro-life organizations have been on the frontlines, documenting the tragic outcomes of Hern’s practice and advocating for the rights of the unborn.
The closure of the Boulder Abortion Clinic is not only a victory for the pro-life movement but also a testament to the enduring power of prayer and advocacy. Volunteers with the 40 Days for Life Boulder campaign, who have been steadfast in their mission for 17 years, noted a decline in patient activity in recent weeks. Their unwavering presence and dedication to life have played a crucial role in this momentous outcome.
Newman further highlighted the gravity of Hern’s actions, stating, “There is a devastating hardness of heart required to kill a child at nine months in the womb and only a handful of abortionists in this country have achieved that level of stone cold evil. Warren Hern is one of them, and we pray no one ever follows in his murderous footsteps.”
As we reflect on this closure, it is vital to remember the importance of upholding traditional values and the sanctity of life. The closure of this clinic is a reminder of the impact that faith, family, and freedom can have in shaping a society that values life at all stages. Let us continue to pray for the victims of abortion and for the repentance of those who have been involved in such practices, trusting that through faith and perseverance, we can build a nation that cherishes and protects the most vulnerable among us.
