www.byzcath.org Forums General Discussions Town Hall Priests for Life Conference Call - November 5th

Friends,

You are invited to join pro-life leaders to discuss the election results on Wednesday night November 5 from 9 to 10pm ET. Sign up now on the form below.

Elections have consequences, and the consequences for the unborn – and for the battle to protect them – are particularly significant. Every pro-life organization is affected. The options that the pro-life movement has in the legislative, legal, and political arenas, and the probability of success for various initiatives, change as a result of the elections.

Our movement, at the same time, does not look to elected officials to do our work for us. The work of advancing the pro-life agenda remains our work. Elected officials either make that work easier or harder. But either way, this is a movement. Regardless of the outcome of any local, state, or national election, together we must be proactive – not reactive – and make aggressive plans to ensure that the pro-life cause is moving forward, continually growing in size and effectiveness.

As a movement, therefore, it is critical for us to assess together the results of the Elections of 2008 and to begin to move forward in the light of those results. On Wednesday night November 5, you will have the opportunity to join with a team of highly respected national leaders for a teleseminar from 9 to 10pm Eastern Time. During this hour, we will focus our attention on what the election results do and do not mean for our movement, and will consider the most fruitful and important trajectories for our work to take.

We will encourage and equip one another for the next chapter of our movement.

Leaders comprising the panel will include representatives of various facets of the movement:

Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life
Janet Morana, Co-Founder of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign
David Bereit, National Campaign Director of 40 Days for Life
Joe Scheidler National Director of the Pro-Life Action League
Brad Mattes, Executive Director of Life Issues Institute
Peggy Hartshorn, President of Heartbeat International
Dan McConchie Vice-President and Executive Director of Americans United for Life
Bryan Kemper, President of Stand True
Kristan Hawkins, Executive Director of Students For Life Of America
Michael Schwartz, Chief of Staff, Senator Tom Coburn
Matt Lockett, Bound4Life
Please join us and spread the word! You can sign up for the conference call on the form below. You will be able to follow the teleseminar by phone or over the internet. You will be able to go to specific websites and download specific documents that will assist our conversation.

You can also submit questions on the teleseminar event page, either in advance or during the call. At the end of the hour, a number of our panelists will answer the questions that have been submitted for up to an additional hour.

You and others will also be able to listen to a recording of the teleseminar and Q-A session afterwards.

There has never been a more important time for the pro-life movement to be united in focus and direction, and on Wednesday, November 5, you can join top national pro-life leaders on this teleseminar to chart the course for our nation’s future.

God bless you!

Fr. Deacon Randy,

I do not recall any official endorsement, but I think his opinions here speak for themselves. There were also calls for Democrats to return to their pro-life roots.
