TROY, Ohio, October 22, 20008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Stand True, Christ-Centered Pro-life, just wrapped up their Pro-life Day of Silent Solidarity on Tuesday, Oct. 21. As of this morning Stand True has been contacted by students about 32 babies who have been saved. Student around the country are telling Stand True about girls who changed their minds and chose life after reading literature or talking to pro-life students yesterday.

"I spent most of last night choking back the tears as I started to hear back from students," said Bryan Kemper, President of Stand True Ministries. "The stories kept coming in about girls deciding to keep their babies and hearts being changed."

Students from over 4,700 campuses in 25 countries took part in the life changing event. This is the fifth year of the Pro-life Day of Silent Solidarity and it keeps growing every year as more and more students are willing to give up their voice for those who will never have one.

One student wrote Stand True, saying:

"I attend a Baptist college so I knew I wouldn't get much of a chance to spread the word so after my last class I went down to the mall and was there for about 20 minutes before a group of teenage girls walked up to me and asked what I was doing. I handed them a paper and one started to cry. I took off the tape and asked what was wrong. I found out that 2 of those girls had just set up an appointment for an abortion. We sat and talked for almost an hour; it was clear that God was at work. Not only did these girls cancel the appointment but I had the privilege to lead them to the Lord."

"I was surprised as to how much I prayed; I have never prayed that much in school, ever. There were originally five people doing it this morning and by the end of the day it doubled. I was super happy. You never know how many people are affected by the things you do."
 
"There was another woman considering abortion, so again I broke my silence and had a 15 minute tear- session/convo with her and she too opted for adoption! I'm so far beyond ecstatic and I am yet again radically affected by this!"

"I am honored and humbled to be part of this event," said Kemper. "I pray my own children will have the courage and conviction to match the kids who participated in the Pro-life Day of Silent Solidarity."

Stand True and Students for Life of America are committed to continue to provide students with tools like the PLDSS, to help them be a voice for their generation.

My 14 yr. old daughter participated at her high school yesterday. She told me she was pretty much the only freshman that did but she is opinionated and outspoken too (used to be extremely shy). Today she told me of the discussion she and one of her teachers had about the election, teacher a big Palin fan, and they pretty much had a positive one-on-one conversation almost the entire 90 minutes while the rest of the class sat there and listened and hopefully learned some facts about the candidates. Teacher was pleasantly surprised how well informed daughter was on the issues~! Some of us parents are out here raisin’ ‘em RIGHT.

Our son was born in a nation where abortions outnumber live births. We think of his birth mother often, and the abundant blessing she bestowed upon us by allowing him to live to be born, and giving him up for adoption.

?? What do you mean, Bryan Kemper seems to be a pretty stand-up guy who is in the trenches fighting. What am I missing?

As my daughter is fond of saying, “That baby may not be your blessing, but he is definitely *someone’s* blessing.”

There’s a certain beauty to this ministry, and being able to say you saved 32 babies in one day.
