Conversations abound when GAP comes to town!

Based on previous experience, we were expecting hateful protests at our latest visit to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG).  We certainly got those, but we also had countless positive comments and thoughtful conversations with logical students.

You’re doing what you set out to do.  A pro-abortion student was impressed.  He said, “I don’t agree with your position but you are doing exactly what you set out to do, and doing it very well.  I applaud you for standing up for something you believe in.”

Thank you!  “I know this is hard and students are rude but thank you.”

Impromptu GAPers!  “May I volunteer?” a young man offered.  On Day 1, a young woman came to talk.  On Day 2, she came to hand out our pamphlets and engage students!

An easy switch.  She signed pro-abortion at the poll table, then asked Mik’aela, “If the mom is poor, why bring the child into the world?” Mik’aela replied, “The child is already in this world.”  Then the student said, “OK, you sold me.” And with that, she signed the pro-life side of the poll table.

Realistic.  James approached one of our staff, “What organization is this?  I have heard of organizations that use graphics and how horrible they are.  These aren’t so graphic.  They are realistic.  Abortion takes a life.  I wouldn’t kill my 1-year-old.  I wouldn’t kill a human in the womb either.”

Amen to that!
