I was conceived in 1974, in a little town called Newbury, in England. Abortion became legal in the UK in 1967, but it wasn’t as acceptable or as accessible as it is now. When my mum fell pregnant with me, she already had four other children to look after, and she was married to my […]
My father was an evangelist, traveling and ministering where ever he was called. My mother was a devout Southern Baptist and my father was a full-gospel, spirit-filled Christian. I was torn between two churches. They were both very godly people but had different outlooks on the Bible because of their denominations.I received Jesus as my […]
In the summer of 2008 in the South of Chile, I was raped at the age of 15. Time passed, and I found out I was pregnant. I was scared, and I didn’t want to be a mother, so I kept my pregnancy a secret. I cried a lot and I was broken-hearted because […]

My name is Rebeca Solórzano. I come with a banner of light, which is life. I was born in 1986. It isn’t frequent that a baby comes into this world under such adverse circumstances like my own: I was born from a very ill mother who was unable to care for a child, and, even […]
