Phoenix, AZ--Oct. 2 - Sixty junior high students from Christ Lutheran School learned from Education Director Melanie Pritchard as she spoke about the dignity and value of life throughout the first week of October.  Melanie brought in special guest speaker, rap artist Brandon "The Rep" Kagel, who rapped "Unborn Child" for the audience (Listen to it here). The students were in awe as he rapped what might be the thoughts and feelings of an unborn child facing an abortion. 
 
St. Louis, MO--Oct 8 - Pritchard flew to Missouri to conduct the five-hour AZRTL Leadership Training Seminar Abortion: Inside the Choice where she spoke to 200 students from the Archdiocese of St. Louis.  After the seminar, event coordinator Shelly Fravala said, "The students really enjoyed the conference.  Overall, I had great feedback.  The students had so much to think about, and they were chomping at the bit for more!"
 
Phoenix, AZ--Oct 23 - A few weeks later, Melanie and Rosa Camou conducted the same training seminar Abortion: Inside the Choice at Xavier College Prep in Phoenix where 60 Xavier and Brophy College Prep students were given the tools necessary to successfully dialogue about abortion.  Xavier student Olivia Both commented to Melanie that her friend came to the training with her and was on the fence about abortion in cases of rape, but the training helped her to see the truth of the matter, and her friend said she is now pro-life. Xavier Students for Life president Caitlyn O'Sullivan said, "The training equipped me with the necessary tools to face society.  The speakers were engaging, and the girls loved it."
