Here is an excerpt from Bekah Smith's interview in the Examiner:
‘Three years ago I attended, for the first time, the annual March For
Life in Washington D.C. - where I truly experienced what it meant to be
pro-life - not only to make my stand on abortion, but to celebrate
life! Mother Teresa said, 'It is not how much you do, but how much love
you put into the doing that matters.' For the past three years now I
have attended the March For Life with the Crusaders For Life.’
While the hallmark of the Crusaders is joyful exuberance, Smith still
comprehends the serious challenges for her generation. ‘Adults are
always telling us young people that we are the future. This scares many
of us because who wants to have that responsibility? ...As a young
Catholic adult, I hope that our generation embraces this challenge and
steps up to make a change for our future generation. I believe that we
can do this if we put forth the effort and love like that of which the
Crusaders and pro-life community have! My only hope is that civil
leaders in our country will see that the young people of America do not
welcome abortion and these leaders will realize the importance of the
sanctity of human life and do more to protect life.’
