| Description | Abby Johnson told the KBTX television station: "I just thought I can't do this anymore, and it was just like a flash that hit me, and I thought that's it.
"I feel so pure in heart. I don't have this guilt, I don't have this burden on me any more, that's how I know this conversion was a spiritual conversion.
She now supports the Coalition For Life, an anti-abortion group down the road from her old pro-choice group.
Volunteers from Coalition For Life regularly pray outside the offices of Planned Parenthood.
Miss Johnson and the Coalition For Life have been issued with a temporary restraining order following her defection.
A spokesman for Planned Parenthood said: "We regret being forced to turn to the courts to protect the safety and confidentiality of our clients and staff. However, in this instance it is absolutely necessary."
The temporary restraining order says Planned Parenthood would be harmed by disclosure of information.
A court hearing about the order takes place on Nov 10.
