great video and story! I will watch for Raquel at the Pregnancy Center because I’m just starting with doing some volunteer ultrasounds over there once a week.
A beautiful story of love and life…God has a plan for each of us and our trials many times prepare us for for the beauty that lies ahead. It is not always easy to give thanks for our trials but we can stay steadfast in faith the fruits will follow. thank you for this witness,
If you want to say something constructive, then you are welcome to comment here bently. Our team loves discussion, even debate, but not insults and bickering. If you would like to make a point that does not degrade the human persons in this video, then by all means go ahead.
Raquel, Seth, John: Please read my book THE VIRGIN MARY’S REVOLUTION! Much of Raquel’s story coincides with the Virgin Mary’s as does her “discovery” of God’s healing and creative Love. You can get it in amazon.com or contacting me at [email protected]. Oremus ad invicem, Gonzalo T. Palacios, Ph.D., C.U.A. 1970
We will try to dialogue with you, but you must clear up your tone or we will have to delete your comments.
We believe as Catholics, that all human life is sacred, and should be protected and loved, which is the focus of this post. The Mom’s choice to give birth to her baby is a noble and heroic choice. She freely admits that she made mistakes in her life, as have you, as have everyone on our team. But that’s no reason to give up the fight for truth.
Many parents who adopt our holy people, but many adoption families are not pursuing holiness. It’s not easy to be in an adoption situation. Very difficult in fact based on the stats that the government puts out. So we uphold the Mom’s decision to choose life, and even more to foster the relationship with her daughter as best as she knows how given the circumstances.
And something tells us that God’s going to put the best man in the world into her life to take care of them both!
Obviously this conversation is not going to be productive, sorry to end it, we just can’t allow ranting on this website. God Bless

i hope you responded in a more specific and loving way to the writers of the deleted messages. when people cry out in their ignorance and pain, they need to be heard and understood so they can begin to heal, hear and understand. speaking as a 75yr old,wounded soul, i believe i would have been a much more loving christian , had the catholics in my life responded in Love.
Ruth, thank you for your comment above, and for visiting our online mission. We tried three separate times to dialogue with charity and spirited debate with those commenters, but they continued to slide into condemning the storyteller, which we do not accept on this website. We warned and gave them several chances, but the message did not get through.
Thanks for posting Gonzalo, do you have a direct link to the book?
What struck you most about this story from Raquel?

Thanks for sharing that great story! I can relate on two levels: 1) as a teenager, I got my girlfriend pregnant and we chose to abort the baby, and 2) my son recently got his girlfriend pregnant but they kept their baby, my beautiful little nine-month-old granddaughter. So I fully understand what Raquel went through.
Joe, thank you for the insight in to your own life’s journey. That is beautiful that you are now a grandparent! It would be interesting to have your son and his girlfriend watch Raquel’s video, our team would love to hear what they think.
