This is a special message for high school juniors and seniors:
Researching the issues affecting the beginning and end of life, coming to an educated conclusion on these issues, and learning to articulate them are vital skills--and I’d like to tell you about an upcoming opportunity to do just that: The Jackson County chapter of Oregon Right to Life is sponsoring an oratory contest. Think of this as an opportunity to study what is meant when we use the phrase “sanctity of life”, to discuss the issues with your parents, pastors, and friends, and develop the skills to articulate your ideas.
Participants in this competition will prepare and deliver a 5-7 minute speech focusing on abortion, euthanasia, infanticide, or stem cell research. These are the issues you will be making decisions about and voting on in the very near future. They are issues foundational to our humanity and it is so important that you use your energy, your intelligence and your voice to speak out for the sanctity of life.
The contest will be held on Tuesday, March 11, 7pm, at Cornerstone Christian Church. Deadline for registration is February 25. Please contact Veronika Comerchero at (541)245-2959 to register. Once you register with your name and address, I will send you a packet with further information.
