NATIONAL
PRO-LIFE CONFERENCE
|
|
OCTOBER
26-28 , 2000
AT THE REGAL CONSTELLATION HOTELON TORONTO'S AIRPORT STRIP
|
|
Last year's trailblazing new format
conference was incredible - unusually inspiring, informative and
motivational. Ask anyone who was there! If you weren't there,
please don't miss another one like it again this year. If you
were there, you must come again for this exciting folIow-up event
and bring others with you this time. Not only will you hear from
outstanding pro-life speakers and leaders, there will be extra-special
opportunity for your personal input into the conference. All sessions
will depend on the input of participants (although if talking
in front of an audience isn't your thing, that's ok too).
