Statement from Rev. Pat Mahoney:
The trial of George Tiller is the result of over 25 years of sacrifice by the pro-life community who prayed for this day outside of his clinic under the glare of the blazing Wichita summer sun and in the freezing blustery winds of winter. This trial reminds us that God honors faithfulness and dedication.
This trial has national significance, as a conviction will energize the national pro-life community in a way that we have not seen for 20 years. With an Obama Administration and a hostile political climate in Washington, D.C., the Tiller trial is a vivid reminder that the strength of our movement must be rooted in the local community with grass roots activism.
Tiller’s trial also shines a national spotlight on the radical pro-abortion policies of Kansas Governor Sebelius as she is being considered for HHS Secretary and the extremist abortion policies of President Obama.
