Wade<\/em> had been overturned. As the conference commenced, shouts of praise and tears of joy filled the room of over 400 women.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/premierespeakers.com\/joanna-hyatt\/bio\">Joanna Hyatt<\/a> \u2014\u00a0author, speaker, and former <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Director of Strategic Partnerships for Live Action \u2014\u00a0kicked off the event as its first keynote speaker. She was introduced by emcee Lauren Muzyka of Sidewalk Advocates for Life as \u201cThe pro-life movement\u2019s first keynote speaker in a post-Roe America!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyatt\u2019s presentation centered around the conference\u2019s theme, \u201cFor Such a Time as This,\u201d and while she couldn\u2019t have known the significance of her speech when she prepared it, her words relayed the perfect message for each woman in the room, as well as the entire pro-life movement, as pro-lifers enter a new season in the fight for life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The changes to abortion access we are witnessing are an answer to prayer that most people never imagined would occur in their lifetime. While many rejoice, evil seems to spew out of the hearts of those who strongly support abortion. Hyatt acknowledged the importance of being aware of this evil but refusing to allow it to deter us from living out our part in this story, no matter how big or small our role may seem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/5-prolife-women-history-need-know\/\">Five pro-life women in history that everyone should know<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">History is filled with endless lists of times when people faced evil of various forms and in many cases, communities were riddled with fear during those times. Hyatt referred to the terror that struck the world because of the atomic bomb, sharing this quote by C.S. Lewis:\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In one way we think a great deal too much of the atomic bomb. \u2018How are we to live in an atomic age?\u2019 I am tempted to reply: \u2018Why, as you would have lived in the sixteenth century when the plague visited London almost every year, or as you would have lived in a Viking age when raiders from Scandinavia might land and cut your throat any night; or indeed, as you are already living in an age of cancer, an age of syphilis, an age of paralysis, an age of air raids, an age of railway accidents, an age of motor accidents. In other words, do not let us begin by exaggerating the novelty of our situation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyatt followed this quote by saying, \u201cBasically, Lewis was saying, \u2018You ain\u2019t special!\u2019\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her words induced a room full of laughter, but her point was a valid reminder. We are not the first in history to face times of difficulty. She reminded the audience, \u201cWe can take comfort in knowing we aren\u2019t the first women to live during a dark, evil time.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the pro-life movement ventures into a post-<em>Roe<\/em> America, Hyatt encouraged pro-life women to remember that we are alive right now for a reason; that we are the people God has chosen to fight for life in <\/span><b>this <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">point in history. She encouraged each person present, saying, \u201cYou were born now to remind people of the beauty of life, to love your neighbors, and to fight for life through prayer.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She spoke to each person with a heart for the preborn, saying the role women play in the fight for life, regardless of how small or large, is vital. Whether someone gives financially to a pregnancy resource center, helps women find healing after abortion, leads a ministry, speaks boldly on a public stage, or simply pledges to pray for the movement, each and every person is necessary. She encouraged the audience to \u201cresist the temptation to believe your importance is based on recognition.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyatt\u2019s message inspired each woman present to \u201clive out OUR part in history &#8211; for such a time as this &#8211; and what a time it is!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cLike\u201d Live Action News on Facebook<\/a>\u00a0for more pro-life news and commentary!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 7th annual Pro-Life Women\u2019s Conference, held in Indianapolis, Indiana, began just hours after the monumental announcement that Roe v.
