What did the saints think about abortion? At least two taught about and practiced abortion care! St. Brigid of Kildare, a fifth-century Irish saint, performed a miracle that might surprise you: She made a pregnancy disappear. St. Hildegard of Bingen was a composer, nun, and herbalist who wrote about herbal abortions in her medical textbooks. Their legacy shows that the church can and should trust women.
