This may be old news, but as a board member of one of the involved organizations, I wasn't free to speak about this publicly until last Thursday.
When the abortion clinic closed down, there was interest from a coalition of Christian organizations to purchase the facility and offer pregnancy services.
The chain link fence and barbed wire (literally) have been removed, the "Planned Parenthood" sign has been removed, and a whole new life radiates from the facility.
This facility was often used as a backdrop when TV reports were being done on abortion in Texas, and there was often a "24 hour prayer chain" operating in front of the facility, people kneeling and praying for the women going in and out when it was an abortion clinic. I have prayed there numerous times.
At first, there was an attempt to form a third party LLC or entity to purchase, as it was thought that Planned Parenthood would never sell to a Christian group. More and more, we felt this was borderline deception, and if God was "in this", we didn't need the secrecy. Long story short, an agreement was reached, and pro-life pregnancy services are now being offered in a facility that once saw many human lives snuffed out.
