They can sue you -- because anybody can sue anyone else for anything, if they have the filing fee -- but I don't think they would have a valid case against you. There is no enforceable obligation for you to pay for an abortion, regardless of religious beliefs. They can, however, encourage their daughter to seek child support from you for the next 18 years.
Best of luck to you.
