Live Action held its third annual Life Awards Gala on September 17 in Dana Point, California. Chaired by Live Action founder and president Lila Rose with featured speaker Michael Knowles, the event honored pro-life champions who have courageously fought to protect preborn children from abortion through their various exceptional efforts.<\/p>\n

This year’s award recipients are Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch, Pastor Lee Jong-Rak, and activist Mary Wagner.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event, Rose, told<\/a> the audience, “Here’s the truth: Before June of this year, Americans had an excuse for why we had not ended the barbaric and evil practice of human abortion. We could simply say, ‘The Supreme Court says we can’t. Our hands our tied.’ That excuse is gone now. If we fail now, if we fail to save our youngest children from the cold and violent death of the abortionist’s tools, that failure is on us. It’s on all of us in this room tonight. The limitless opportunity that we have is so exciting and beautiful, but it must make us pause. And then it must make us take bolder action than we could have ever imagined. We have been entrusted with the opportunity of a lifetime and, ‘For to whom much is given,’ as our Lord says, ‘much is required.’ It’s all on us now. No excuses. We are in the fight of our lives.”<\/p>\n
