Be inspired by Sr. Deirdre “Dede” Byrne who previously served as a surgeon, retired army officer, and missionary, here’s a snippet from her speech last week.
“As Christians, we first met Jesus as a stirring embryo in the womb of an unwed mother and saw him born nine months later in the poverty of the cave. It is no coincidence that Jesus stood up for what was just and was ultimately crucified because what he said was not politically correct or fashionable. As followers of Christ, we are called to stand up for life against the politically correct or fashionable of today…While what I have to say may be difficult for some to hear, I am saying it because I am not just pro-life, I am pro-eternal life.”
