Senator Santorum and Chloe Kondrich
Thank you to all who attended the 2011 Celebrate Life Banquet near Pittsburgh. Senator Rick Santorum lit up the night with his impassioned speech about the dignity of each human life. Chloe Kondrich stole hearts as one of the recipients of the 2011 PA Pro-Life Leadership Award (Her co-recipients were her parents and brother, who spread the message about the special blessing of special needs children.) Meanwhile, PA Pro-Life Lifetime Achievement Award winner Therese Brehany gave a touching speech about her decades-long involvement in the pro-life movement. It was, quite simply, an evening to remember.
Please call your Congressional Representative and urge a “yes” vote on the Protect Life Act, HR 358, which may be voted on Thursday, Oct. 13. The bill, sponsored by PA Congressman Joe Pitts, would correct the many abortion-expanding parts of President Obama’s health care reform law. If you need to find out the name or phone number of your Congressman, please call us at 717-541-0034.
