Science tells us when life begins, but
the real question is when love begins. For many abortion-minded women, love
began when they had the opportunity to see their unborn child on an ultrasound
screen. Dorinda Bordlee, Senior Counsel of

the problem. The center using

scientifically proven treatments that work cooperatively with the body.

LEO HOLMSTEN HUMAN LIFE AWARD BANQUET
- The
Leo Holmsten Human Life committee sponsors their Annual Human Life Award Banquet
Friday 6:00 p.m., October 8 2010, at the
Hyatt Regency Rochester
125 East Main Street Rochester, NY 14604 585-546-1234. View
event flier here.
Contact Dorothy at 585-342-4175 or email
info@lhhl.org for
more information. This
years award recipient is Rev James R. Harden. The idea for the Leo Holmsten Human
Life Award arose from a growing recognition that while abortion defenders and activists
were regularly commending each other for pro abortion legislation and court victories,
the pro life community, generally volunteers with family and other obligations,
found little time to celebrate their own, often heroic, efforts and extraordinary
accomplishments.lhhl.orgrochester.hyatt.comPro-Life
