Jane Russell, Christian Pro-Life Advocate and Champion of Adoption

What was generally not reported in the MSM obituaries of Hollywood superstar Jane Russell is that she was an aborted woman who deeply regretted her action, believed it was probably the reason she was unable to bear other children and, after returning to Christianity, became a vocal pro-life advocate.

Jane Russell adopted three children and founded the World Adoption International Agency which has now connected over 40,000 children from overseas to adoptive parents in the U.S. She also began a weekly Bible study at her home for believers in the film industry.

In lieu of flowers at her funeral, her family asked donations be made in her name to either the Care Net Pregnancy and Resource Center of Santa Maria or the Court Appointed Special Advocates of Santa Barbara County.
