The Annual Ohio Right to Life Oratory Contest last Saturday was a great success! Travis Goettemoeller from Mercer County Right to Life won the first place prize and will be going to Florida in June for the National Competition. There were eight contestants from across the state, some traveling from the far corners and edges of Ohio – can you say four-hour drive?!

The contestants (in their speeches) reminded those in the audience of the need for ACTION NOW in our communities. There are so many evils happening in this world – together they are rapidly creating a culture of death. There is abortion happening on demand across the world and let us not forget, here in Ohio. There are the issues of euthanasia, human trafficking…the list goes on and on. The contestants truly inspired those in the audience to ACT NOW in response to these great evils and to take a STAND for LIFE in their communities – for together, we can build a culture of Life.
