Introducing... Gianna Jessen

Gianna Jessen was aborted and lived to tell about it. She has since become a vocal advocate against abortion, even speaking to the US Congress and the British House of Commons. She has made a startling physical recovery; she was not expected to be able to walk, but she now walks with a modest limp. She entered and completed a local marathon in 2005, and the London Marathon in 2006. In her advocacy, she does not express anger or bitterness, but seeks to convince people that abortion is a violation of the human rights of the aborted person through the plain example of her story and her visible present identity; she even seeks to comfort women who regret their abortions and are suffering for them. Gianna also sings, accompanied by her friend Michael Logen; she has written and recorded songs.

Gianna identifies herself as a Christian. She boldly proclaims her belief in the love and mercy of God, as well as speaking in support of chastity. She has forgiven her birth mother for aborting her, despite that forgiveness being unwanted. Jessen gives credit to Jesus for her life, her physical recovery, and her joy.

Gianna's BornAliveTruth.org Ad 

In this powerful ad sponsored by BornAliveTruth.org, abortion survivor Gianna Jesson questions Barack Obama for his active opposition as state senator to IL's Born Alive Infant Protection Act.

Born Alive was introduced to stop IL hospitals from leaving babies who survived their abortions in soiled utility rooms to die.

Gianna was aborted 31 years ago by a saline abortion procedure.

Gianna testified for the federal Born Alive Infants Protection Act in 2001 and attended the presidential bill signing in 2002.

Born Alive passed on the federal level overwhelmingly. The abortion group NARAL even expressed neutrality on the bill, which passed unanimously in the U.S. Senate 98-0.

Barack Obama is such an abortion extremist, he has positioned himself to the left of the entire U.S. Senate and NARAL.

If it were up to Obama, Gianna would not be here today.

    I am !00% absolutely pro- life as long as the woman that is responsible for and presumably owns her body has a choice. Making abortion illegal (again) will solve nothing , the focus should be on education, poverty and birth control.Or just give men vasectomies at birth.

    Thank you, Joanne. Jill Stanek's story is one of the many people featured on my Abortion lens. I'm also making a lens about her that will be featured soon. I have several heroes and Jill and Gianna are two of my favorites.

    I first learned about Gianna from Jill Stanek's blog. Gianna is a beautiful person, and sets a wonderful example of what Christianity is. Your lens is a great tribute to her.
