The temperature is rising and the road is calling – it's time for us to kick off the annual Rock for Life Summer Festivals Tour! This year we are sending five young adults who will be traveling over 8,300 miles to promote the pro-life message at eleven Christian music festivals, host over 14 pro-life prayer and visibility events outside of Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities while also meeting up with several other pro-life groups.
We look forward to meeting many of you at the festivals and everyone is welcome to join us for the pro-life visibility events.
Hobbies/Interests: Touring, Traveling, Reading, Writing, Blogging, Community, Jesus, Love
Favorite Bands: Life in Your Way, As Cities Burn, Dustin Kensrue, The Wedding, The Glorious Unseen, Wavorly, Johnny Cash, Mewithoutyou, and And Ever Endeavor
Why he is pro-life: I am pro-life because life begins at the moment of fertilization. Upon that very instance humanity is defined and is divinely created for a purpose, a reason and a passion. That life is valuable to an infinite degree. As the child grows and develops and is then born, life is constantly happening. Some of the most important stages of life are completed inside the womb.
Jesus Christ taught us to love. I can not comprehend how ending a life, at any stage for any reason, is an example of that very love.
I am pro-life in all things – from conception to natural death.
Hobbies/Interests: pro-life activism, discovering new bands, hanging out with friends, traveling, reading
Favorite Bands: Coolhand Luke, Matisyahu, Underoath, Paramore, This Providence, Coheed and Cambria, Karate High School
Why she is pro-life: I'm pro-life because I believe everyone should be treated with justice, respect and with love no matter how small they are or where they're located. Abortion is not a "choice." Abortion is the act of killing the child that is growing within the mother's womb. This horrible and selfish act has been inflicted and passed on to my generation and it is time we stood up and take a stand saying no I will not pass this on to the next one!!!!!

Hometown: Duke Center, PA
Hobbies/Interests: I enjoy playing music (guitar, drums, bass, piano, singing), listening to music, and fireworks. I love them soooo much.
Favorite Bands: Underoath, The fall of troy, City and Colour, As Cities Burn, Say Anything, Yann Tiersen, Emarosa
Why he is pro-life: I am pro life because it's just right. God has blessed us with the ability to have children and to bring beautiful new life into the world and to try to rob that child's chances of having an awesome life is a terrible thing.
Hobbies/Interests: Singing, dancing, people, my Jesus, intellectual conversations, listening and kids :)
Favorite Bands: Paramore, Fireflight (my home dawgs. ha), Damien Rice, Johnny Cash, FF 5, Jeremy Camp, Shawn McDonald, Flyleaf, and Iron and Wine. Those are just a few.
Why she is pro-life: The main reason I'm pro-life is that life does begin at conception and Jesus created us in the womb. So many women out there have a misconception that life doesn't start until the last trimester or when you give birth and that's not the case. So many women are hurting out there because of abortions and so many are out there incredibly confused. That's where I, and all other women, come in and listen, care, love and share the beauty of life and when it does start, and also how the baby grows each and every day.
Hobbies/Interests: Watching movies, playing Basketball and hanging out with my family and friends
Favorite Bands: Thousand Foot Crutch, FM Static, Falling Up, Family Force 5, Redcloud
Why she is pro-life: God created everyone to live and choose to follow Him, so it's not our job to be killing innocent babies. God has a purpose for everyones life so if we take away one life we take away a purpose.

What you can do to help
Join the RFL Summer Tour Facebook group. Write on the wall, join our discussion groups, read bios and keep up with how the team is doing. Make sure to invite all of your friends on Facebook to join as well.
Grab some friends and join us at one of the prayer and visibility events outside of a Planned Parenthood or other abortion facility. Click here to see the full schedule.
Feed the team! Stop by with some food at the festivals, drop a cash or food card in the donation jar at our booth or invite the team over for a fellowship meal while on the road. You can also make a donation online here or at the Facebook cause.
If you’ve got some room at your apartment/house and want to host the team for a night or two, let us know!
Get a group of people together, sit back and we’ll share stories from our travels, discuss methods of getting involved in the pro life movement, and host viewings of Baby Steps, our 4D ultrasound video that gives a guided tour of a child's development in the womb. Our presentation is great for church groups, youth groups, mother's help centers and even small group Bible studies. We want to help you get educated and get involved!
Help fill our tank! We estimate we will spend nearly $3,000 on gas alone. You can help us out with that by dropping a few bucks or a gas card in our donation jar at the booth, making an online donation or donating to the Facebook cause. Would you be willing to drive less today and donate that gallon of gas ($4) to us?
Pray for us! We’ll definitely need God’s grace and guidance as we seek to educate, activate and mobilize the pro-life youth of America to defeat abortion and the culture of death.
