[Editorial note: As we celebrate new life through the power of the resurrection of Christ, we celebrate the new value of life that these 94  former abortion workers have after seeing the movie UNPLANNED.  Praise God for each one that was touched–God restores!]

Chuck Konzelman, writer and director of “Unplanned,” a film about Planned Parenthood clinic director-turned pro-life advocate Abby Johnson, revealed Wednesday during congressional testimony that 94 clinic workers have come forward after watching the movie to seek help leaving their jobs.

Konzelman, who spoke before the Senate Subcommittee on the Constitution, revealed that since the film’s release on March 29, these workers approached Johnson’s nonprofit, And Then There Were None, and have indicated an intent to change their lives.

And Then There Were None’s stated mission is to “help abortion clinic workers leave the abortion industry.”

“The number of actual workers who have reached out is 94,” Konzelman revealed, estimating that this accounts for about 1 percent of abortion workers in the U.S.

The “Unplanned” director went on to say that these individuals are truly looking to change their lives (you can watch this portion of his testimony at the 2:52-mark here).

“One percent of the abortion workers in the United States, after getting one look at them being portrayed on film … have decided to change their lives … and what they do for a living,” Konzelman said.

The filmmaker also noted that this is evidence that “Unplanned” isn’t portraying these people as monsters. Instead, some workers appear to find something redeeming about the movie, and are taking personal action as a result.

As Pure Flix Insider previously reported, the congressional subcommittee hearing, titled, “Stifling Free Speech: Technological Censorship and the Public Discourse,” also dealt with the recent suspension of the official Twitter page for “Unplanned,” among other claims of censorship.

Watch Actress Ashley Bratcher, who played Johnson, speak about the power of prayer:

Numerous stories have emerged about the filming of “Unplanned” as well as the impact the movie is having on the masses. Bratcher, who portrayed Johnson in the movie, discussed her own journey toward accepting the role — and the ways in which faith played out on set.

“I walk into the set and when I did the presence of the holy spirit just overcame me,” Bratcher said. “I wanted to just fall to me knees in that moment and cry. It was so overwhelming. I had no idea that the team had been praying over that set.”

And Johnson has openly shared her story as well. Listen to her reveal why she fled Planned Parenthood and became a pro-life activist:

Perhaps one of the most interesting people attached to the film is Dr. Anthony Levatino, a gynecologist who performed around 1,200 first and second trimester abortions early in his career before a stunning change-of-heart transformed him into an outspoken pro-life advocate. He plays an abortion doctor in “Unplanned” and his personal story is incredible.

We serve a forgiving and merciful God. I too went through this even though it was before I knew and have a relationship with God. I now wholeheartedly believe in pro-life. I pray these 94 and others who have left their jobs find healing and deliverance and find rewarding jobs in Jesus’ mighty Name! I also pray and know that it is coming that Rode vs. Wade will be overturned. Hallelujah! What the enemy meant for harm God turns to good.

Dear Lord God Almighty thank You for everything. Thank You for prayer. Lord thank You for the 94 abortion clinic worker who saw Unplanned and left their jobs. Please bless these people with employement and a close relationship with You. Heavenly Father please continue to call other abortion clinic workers from their jobs and help them find other employement and come to know You. May their be a mass exodus of abortion clinic workers leaving their jobs in America and throughout the world. Lord do not hold back Your mighty arm. You Lord can touch hearts and minds. You Lord can make a way for people to act responsibly and to act obediently. God bless this nation and this world with Your Holy Spirit. Enable more people to act like Your Holy Son more and more a little bit each day. I pray this in deep faith in our Lord and Savior’s name Jesus Christ. Amen.

    Amen. What a beautiful heartfelt prayer. I couldn’t think of anything else to add. I too pray that the Lord will find employment for them.

Glory to God that these 94 individuals saw the true light, Jesus Christ, and saw that abortion is evil. May their lives be filled with your, God’s, goodness, and may they spread the Word to others. They saw life is precious and should not be taken away from the mother’s womb, and later become a child to God and to the world. Amen

I pray that this film will continue to open the eyes of viewers to see through the lies regarding abortion. I pray that people will go out and see this film and that it will continue to change hearts and lives. Praise the Lord for those 94 clinic employees who have seen the light and are getting out of the business! May they also find Jesus!
Lord God, please continue to bless this film. Thank You for what You are accomplishing through it. Amen
