“…after a long period of darkness in my personal life, a period where I contributed more than my share to the opposing narrative…I found LifeSite…”
Did that grab your attention? It grabbed ours when a reader named Marko reached out to us with his story. I have to admit, a story that begins like that makes me stop and listen.
I hope you will too, because truthfully, it is your support that makes stories of hope and renewal like Marko’s below come alive and make a difference in the world.
You see, Marko is a post-abortive father. He told us his oldest daughter “was a beautifully formed twenty-four week old before she was pulled from her mother’s womb.” But this was not his only child. He chose to allow two other children to be killed as well.
But this is not the end of Marko’s story.
By God’s grace, Marko has not only repented for these abortions, he now advocates for the unborn through the platform of LifeSite’s pro-life truth mission.
He went on to share:
“LifeSite has been a deeply personal platform for my repentance. To be part of an international community at the front of a cultural trench war, one whose mission is carried out with such grace and patience, is a gift in my life. The idols of same-sex “matrimony,” gender ideology, abortion, contraception, internet pornography, and the sociopolitics that come along with them, I have been convinced, are the beginning stages of what is among the most destructive sicknesses civilization has ever seen. It is a sickness that grows from the inside that can only be healed by a physician whose medicine is capable of mending these hearts of ours.”
Marko’s conversion and subsequent involvement in serving the pro-life movement – THIS is the kind of cultural change necessary to topple the goliath of secularism and anti-life ideology.
You may not be aware of this but many of our former and current staff, including LifeSite co-founders Steve Jalsevac and myself, were strongly on the dark, other side in our past.
We were miserable with how we were living, experienced conversion, repented and received peace-giving, powerfully motivating forgiveness for the errors that we made.
And now, we are engaged in the fulfilling work of making up for our wrongs by helping thousands to change as we were blessed, and to commit to this “most important work in the world” (as St. Pope John Paul II called pro-life work).
There are so many post-abortive mothers and fathers in our culture seeking healing. And they won’t find the truth and healing they seek from the progressive worldview forced upon us by the mainstream media.
These people need a clear voice, unafraid to speak TRUTH without compromise –
…And to reach them we NEED your help. Today.

Marko shared a scripture verse with us I’d like to share with you. May it grant the same solace it did for him:
“Good and upright is the Lord; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way. The humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way. All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth, To such as keep His covenant and His testimonies. For Your name’s sake, O Lord, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great.” (Ps. 25: 8-11 NJKV)
Right now there are countless people like Marko in the world in need of conversion. What is needed is a clear voice of TRUTH. You can make this a reality today!
