To Whom It May Concern:

I whole heartedly give my endorsement to the work of the Canadian Center for Bio-Ethical Reform (CCBR). I have been very impressed with the confident but humble professionalism they demonstrate in all aspects of their communication with the public. I find their message to be very compassionate but hard hitting, well documented and theologically sound.

We invited Stephanie Gray to give a full presentation of the mission and the message of CCBR to our church congregation. Though it is always unpleasant to be confronted with the disturbing facts about abortion the gripping presentation was tactful and effective in its delivery. I have personally never before encountered a more convincing or effective appeal for standing up and speaking out on behalf of the unborn.

The response of our congregation was very positive and affirming of the work of CCBR but more importantly it re-ignited a pro-life conviction among our members which had been complacently packed away in mothballs for too many years. I have since been encouraged to see several members of the congregation who previously had no pro-life voice respond by actively taking up the cause of making abortion unthinkable in their own spheres of influence.

CCBR has done their homework; they are organized, well researched, effectively trained and articulate in communicating their message. Above all, they demonstrate the heart of God in their ministry.

Sincerely in Christ,

Pastor Ron Stone
