Dubuque County Right to Life 1st Ever Pro-Life Conference

I stopped in at DBQ Co Right to Life Wednesday afternoon. In the midst of my discussion with Colleen Pasnik, Executive Assistant about other things next week's conference came up. She told me that they are hoping for about 100 people but only have 25 so far. If you are interested, or know someone call the DCRTL phone number below for more info or to register.

In light of the recently passed ObamaCare we need to be even more prepared & armed to battle Planned Parenthood & the other promoters of the culture of death. There are more details below about the speakers. I personally know 2 of them. Dr. Jack Dolehide & I attended Loras College at the same time. I have worked with Connie Hardie at DCRTL & have been through the Speaker Training program under her leadership.

For those who may say that this is just too far to come for 1 day, DBQ has plenty to offer for the whole family, including a world class River Museum. (& no I do not get paid for plugging it. I am trying to answer your objections for not coming.) & if that isn't enough, you will get the chance to meet me as I will be attending. (Don't let that keep you away either.)
