I am going to be writing something up later, but I thought I would share what Mary Kominsky, the other woman who testified at Columbia with me wrote on Facebook...
I think Theresa and Colleen will agree...today was an epic moment for being Silent No More. The venue was huge...beautiful day, front and center on one of the country's most radical, pro abortion, confused campuses and as Theresa put it correctly...in the lion's den. We even had police presence, semi-streakers, screamers and those who Colleen stopped in taking over the mic. Theresa "unplugged" an angry young man after we were finished and left him totally speechless saying.."I'm sorry for you."
It was also a day of joy... in where we were in God's love and mercy and just having the courage to go and talk about this painful personal time in our lives. There was joy in the faces of the group of Pro Life students who never waivered, holding our signs for a good hour and a half, the faculty member who prayed during the whole time and the students who were brave enough to come forward to talk. Thanks Colleen for all that you do for us and your support and encouragement!
Just to give you an idea of the venue...
me, Mary testifying and Colleen
