TUCKER—Georgia Right to Life will hold its annual Choose Life Convention on Saturday, Oct. 16, at Rehoboth Baptist Church, Tucker. The keynote speaker is Father Frank Pavone.

The Choose Life Convention is a one-day event designed to celebrate the developments and saved lives resulting from the pro-life movement, to encourage and inspire the attendees in their continued efforts and to educate attendees in the most recent research and findings in the pro-life movement.

Father Pavone, the national director of the Priests for Life organization, will provide dynamic and up-to-date information in the battle to restore respect and effective legal protection for all human beings from the moment of fertilization until natural death. He is one of the most sought out speakers in the pro-life movement today. Father Pavone has addressed the clergy of India on life issues, at the request of Blessed Mother Teresa. He has also traveled to all 50 states and five continents, addressed the pro-life caucus of the U.S. House of Representatives and appeared on numerous television shows and in newspapers, including “Hannity and Colms” and The New York Times.

Attendees to the conference will learn from experts in the pro-life movement through workshops led by Dr. Kathleen Raviele, Joan Ransom, Patrick Eads and Michael Krom. Topics will include information about the risks of abortion, reaching black Americans for life, reversing the negative trends associated with the sexual revolution and the truth about assisted suicide and euthanasia.

Every day 3,805 babies are killed in the United States by abortion because they have no voice. Only through education can the opinions of this nation’s citizens regarding abortion laws be changed.

Georgia Right to Life is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, nonsectarian organization of diverse and caring people united to engage in actions that will restore respect and effective legal protection for all human beings from the moment of fertilization until natural death.
