EVERY GENERATION IS CALLED TO AFFIRM THE VALUE OF LIFE

Throughout the past three decades, I have had the privilege of meeting thousands of pro-Life people across North America. Some lobby legislators for legal protection of life from conception to natural life.

Some are involved in public education to promote respect for all
life. Some are involved on the front lines with care for women in crisis pregnancies and their babies. Some work against state-sanctioned assisted suicide and euthanasia, or in providing life-affirming care at the end of life. Each person plays an important role in striving for the care and protection of all human life in our current culture of death. 

Each generation is called to affirm life in the context in which they live, and not deny it. There have been other cultures of death where people of good-will worked to save and care for life. 

Dear pro-life friends, do not be discouraged even though you may not see the results of your efforts in this world. Most will not. But every so often someone who stood up for life has the opportunity to look into the faces of those who were saved. 


Sir Nicholas Winton
1909-2015
As the Second World War was about to begin, Nicholas Winton saved 669 Czechoslovakian Jewish children from the holocaust. He saw that human life was in peril and responded by getting children out of Prague. His qualifications? None. He simply did what was right. 

In 1988, he finally met some of those children he saved. A BBC show invited him on their program. Unbeknownst to Nicholas Winton, they planted many of those grown children around him. See the video below.

This, too, is to be pro-Life. View link below or click https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_nFuJAF5F0
