OSA Christians read the powerful Word of Almighty God in all parts ofthe city of Atlanta today and the devil's strongholds began to crumble. Dale Sochia, from Louisiana, said he and his group got lost on their way to Dr. Malloy's abortion clinic where they were to read. They arrived late but, he said, they just knew God was going to do something awesome and trusted Him that it was a divine appointment that caused them to be late.

Dale said the moment they arrived at the abortion clinic, even before they could pray, they were met by clinic personnel yelling at them and threatening to call the police. I told them, 'Well, do what you
have to do" and we began to pray. He said, "Within a few minutes the clinic sent this girl, Monique, out and I thought there was going to be a confrontation. She walked over to my sister to shake her hand and put a piece of paper in her hand that had her phone number on it. The first thing she said to my sister was, 'Can you get me a job?' So we knew that God was in motion," he said. They proceeded to talk with her.

Dale said, "The clinic workers inside were trying to beep Monique and watching through the windows and trying to get her back inside, so we had to pretend to argue with her. I told her, 'Monique, God has put life and death before you this day, you need to walk away from this place.' She started kind of tearing up," he said. "Monique told us, 'I'm going to quit,' and then she said something very profound," Dale
related, She said, "I want to go to church with you tonight and be baptized."

Dale urged her to go in and get her purse and keys and leave immediately. When she went back inside, Dale called Flip to ask him to pray because, "I've been in that situation" he said, "They go back
inside and then they don't come out." But a couple of minutes later she came back out, got in her car, pulled down to the end of the driveway and stopped. He asked her what happened. She said,"They
looked at me and I said 'I quit!'"

They met with Monique across the street and, before she left, made plans to meet with her tonight at church.

While all this was going on Dale saw several police cars flying down the street with their lights flashing and sirens going. Then several ambulances went by. Dale said later a policeman pulled into the driveway and asked him if he had a permit to do what he was doing (reading the Bible). "I absolutely do," he said, "The First Amendment of the Constitution gives me that right." The policeman said he'd have to call his supervisor.

When he came back he told Dale what he could and couldn't do, all the usual things - he can't be on the property he can't block the drive, etc. Dale assured him they weren't there to break the law. He said, "The policeman turned around like he was going to walk away and I could see he was shaking. I knew something was wrong. Then he turned and told me there were four people who had just been shot. Two of them were officers and two of them civilians who were killed. Compassion just welled up in me," he said. "I told him, you lay down your lives for us and you don't even know us. That's what we're doing here, laying down our lives for these babies we don't know. Then I asked him, 'Can we pray for you and these two officers?' He said, 'Yes,' so we gathered around him and began to lift him up in prayer. We just prayed the peace of God over him and for the miraculous hand of God on the two officers."

Two men at the clinic saw them praying. Dale called them over and, he said, "They got saved!"

Later when Dale's group went to Quiznos to grab something to eat, they saw the policeman and asked him how the two officers were doing that had been shot. He told them the officers are going to be okay and thanked them for their prayers.

Dale said he was really wondering if Monique would show up at the rally tonight, but just as it started she walked in.
Monique and her boyfriend James both made professions of faith tonight and were baptized. An offering was taken for Monique's immediate needs. Someone stepped up and said they'll help find her a job. Two teenagers, Levi from North Carolina and Jewells from Louisiana were also baptized.
