Michele Hendrickson is the East

Coast Director of Students for Life .

She brings the unique experience of

being an elementary school teacher

to the pro-life movement. She is a

graduate of Hood College in Freder-

ick, MD who majored in Elementary

and Special Education. Working with children and

teaching for over 10 years has provided Michele

with amazing opportunities to partner with fami-

lies. After volunteering in the pro-life movement,

she felt a heavy burden for the families whose re-

lationships were destroyed by abortion. She is

dedicated to educating and empowering women to

understand the truth about abortion. Michele

helps student groups and regional coordinators

bring the pro-life message to their campuses and

beyond. She lives in Maryland with her husband

and two children: Joel, 5, and Lucy, 2. Michele is

also the Regional Coordinator for schools in Mary-

land, Delaware, and Washington, D.C.

“If we took a moment of silence for each per‐son lost to abor on, we would be silent for

“If abor on is not wrong, then nothing is wrong. It is more than a singular or sepa‐rate wrong—it is the source of all wrong. To kill the small, the weak, the sick, the dependent, the defenseless violates all that our people’s faith and our na on’s history tells us is right. If we can choose between one human being’s right to life and another human being’s life style and give death to one and absolute power to the other, then how can we ever again claim to be what Lincoln called us: the 

last, best hope of earth.” 

Bob Morrison 

 

"The pro‐life movement is not primarily a response to Roe vs Wade. It is a response 

to Jesus Christ." 

Fr. Frank Pavone  

Thank you, Frederick County Right To Life, for all you have 

done and con nue to do to protect unborn babies.

St. John’s Council 1622 112 East Second Street Frederick, MD 21701

"We must not be surprised when we hear of murders, of killings, of wars, of hatred. If a mother can kill her own 

child, what is le  but for us to kill each other."   

 "Abor on kills twice. It kills the body of the baby and it 

kills the conscience of the mother.  

 

Abor on is profoundly an ‐women. Three‐quarters of its vic ms are women: Half the babies and all the mothers." 

~ Saint Mother Theresa of Calcu a ~ 

_______________________________ 

For the Conversion of Abor onists!

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in ba le, be our protec on 

against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him 

we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the 

power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl 

about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
