I wanted to send you a note to thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to speak at the kickoff rally for the DC 40 Days for Life campaign a couple weeks ago. The rally was a well-attended success as around 50 people came to hear from you and other pro-life leaders. It was great to see so much support for our DC 40 Days for Life campaign.
Your remarks were greatly appreciated. You are correct when you said that this is the most important 40 Days for Life campaign ever. After Dobbs, maintaining a prayerful presence outside abortion facilities will become even more important in parts of the country where abortion is still legal.
Thank you for always being supportive of the sidewalk counseling efforts and other types of street level activism in the DC area. Whenever you are in town, you always make time to join us at the DC Planned Parenthood and I appreciate it.
Talk to you soon,
Dr. Michael New

The man, the myth, the legend...Fr. Frank Pavone! A crusader for the pro-life cause, a zealous priest, and a man I desire to imitate. The 800 plus people in attendance at the conference today gave him the longest and most heart-felt standing ovation I have ever seen given to any speaker. It truly moved my heart. And he deserves every bit of it. Thank you, brother, for being a priest of Jesus Christ, a defender of babies, and an example to your brother priests. May your reward in Heaven be great! - Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC [re: Divine Mercy Conference, July 2022, Temecula, CA]

Fr. Frank, Congratulations on our victory! I admire your constant focus on defeating abortion. You are a great example to the rest of us priests. Sincerely, Fr. Joseph E. Looney, D. Min.

Thank you for the beautiful books you send me. My grandchildren love them. Also thank you for giving us hope. We are encouraged that someone will stand up against the fake catholics who are standing up for abortion instead of against abortion. We pray for you everyday. - Ron and Diane

Dear Fr. Frank and Janet:
I hope you both enjoyed a most blessed weekend and Lord's Day as we celebrated Mother's Day!
I wanted to thank you for the webinar last week on preparing for Mother's Day. It was time well spent for me, and it, in turn, made an impact on a guest at our Sunday Mass. I received the following in an email:
"I wanted to reach out and say thank you. I attended the 9:30 Mass this morning. I was dreading this Mass because my husband and I are two years into primary infertility. Today has been difficult for me, but a bright spot was when Deacon Russ not only wished any moms a Happy Mother's day, but also made sure those who have been affected by miscarriage or infertility we're also recognized. I expected to cry throughout Mass. I didn't expect it to be because I felt so seen and heard by the Church. I truly, truly appreciate his words. I wish there was more discussion and compassion about this in Church circles."
I don't believe I used the word "miscarriage," but, as was suggested by Janet, "pregnancy loss." Obviously, it was a great comfort to this woman.
Thanks again, and keep up the good work!
Peace,
Deacon Russ Woodard

We received a call from a wonderful lady and she only had nice things to say about Janet's latest book, “Everything You Need to Know About Abortion For Teens”. She said that she read it through in one day and thinks it is Phenomenal and powerful. She has been a long time supporter and big fan of Priests for Life and our mission.
