The mission of the Students for Life of America Wilberforce
Leadership Fellowship is to raise up the next generation of pro-life
leaders. We want to train student pro-life activists to be leaders on
campus and beyond and network those student leaders with their
counterparts in the national pro-life movement to help further develop
their leadership potential. The SFLA Fellows participated in 3 days of
leadership presentations, most notably a full-day training with Scott
Klusendorf of Life Training Institute who educated the Fellows on pro-life apologetics, fundraising, speaking, and the importance of the 2012 election.
Ashley
Price, Fellow from Mercer University, remarked, “I want to pass this on
to my group members back on my campus.” “The fact that youth can really
make a difference on the local and national scale shows me that the
tide truly is turning.” Christian Andzel, from the University of
Buffalo, said, “The fact that the prolife leaders of this generation are
in this building have reminded me that our movement must keep our eye
on the prize, which is to change minds and hearts on how we view human
life from the moment of fertilization to natural death. Once we are able
to change the culture, we’ll be able to change the law, and then we
will restore the dignity of all human life.”
Throughout the 2012-13 school year, the SFLA Wilberforce Leadership
Fellows will be applying the leadership skills they learn on their
campus and throughout their communities by organizing events, assisting
Students for Life of America in its mission of equipping the pro-life
generation, and working with their National Wilberforce Mentor (a leader of an existing national pro-life organization) who will help network them with the national pro-life movement and assist in completion on their Fellowship Projects.READ MORE
