KALIDA—Putnam County Right to Life and the Kalida Knights of Columbus hosted a dinner and speaker Oct. 8 at the Kalida Knights of Columbus Hall.
The event featured Christina Ryan Claypool, who shared her experience and message as a post-abortive woman. Ms. Claypool told of her struggle with her own decision to abort her second child and the depression and heartache that followed.
She acknowledged factors such as family struggles, lack of money or a job, pressure from others and not feeling valued as reasons why women might consider an abortion. She also emphasized that the destruction and harm that an abortion causes far outweigh any reason to have one.
Ms. Claypool encouraged those in attendance to continue to speak out against abortion for the sake of the children, whose lives are lost, and the mothers, fathers and other family members who struggle in the aftermath of an abortion.
