On the eve of the march, over 1,800 teens and young adults poured into the Bethesda North Marriott Conference center for the Students for Life of America’s (SFLA) National Conference 2011. Far from mere spectators, many in the crowd were pro-life leaders themselves: the heads and members of campus pro-life groups from dozens of U.S. universities came to learn new techniques from the pros for spreading the message on their home turf.
Bryan Kemper of Stand True Ministries said, “This is not your grandma’s pro-life movement. This is our pro-life movement. After all, this is your generation that’s dying. ... It’s up to you guys to reach out to your generation and do it in a relevant, exciting way.” Kemper also encouraged the crowd to maturity, asking them to be patient in their endeavors: “If you want to see the results, you’re in the wrong business.” But despite the hurdles, said Kemper, “You guys probably have some of the best ideas still inside of you. We’re just scratching the surface.” LifeSiteNews
