Participants each year include professionals in business, law, medicine and allied health professions, education, the media, and religion, as well as other individuals interested in the topics of sanctity of life and the value of the family.
From The Median Radio Program
We produce a daily radio program (From The Median) that provides a daily report from the frontline of the prolife movement, through Christian radio media. The program regularly features international, national, and local experts who bring their extensive knowledge and experience to educate and inform listeners regarding matters concerning the sanctity of life and the value of the family.
Truth Booth Program
“Truth Booths” educate the public on the pre-natal development of the child in the womb using ultrasound video footage presented through an unmanned kiosk and videos that can be viewed on the internet or on DVD. Truth Booths and DVDs are provided to organizations and individuals interested in educating the public regarding the sanctity of life.
Cleveland Minutemen for Life Youth Group
CRTL’s youth group, Cleveland Minutemen for Life, is comprised of young people aged 13-18 who are united by a shared passion for the defense of the unborn, and who intend to be the generation that sees the end of abortion in our nation. They call themselves “Minutemen” in reference to George Washington’s committed band of Patriots who could be relied upon to answer the call to battle “in a minute,” signifying their readiness at every moment to protect and defend life. Through prayer, education, and participation in local, regional and national pro-life events, the youth group intends to spread the Gospel of Life through their schools, churches, organizations, and, ultimately, our whole society. Intended activities will include prayer vigils; public witnessing for Life in parades, marches and other civic events; volunteer work for CRTL and other organizations that support Life; and participation in pro-life campaigns such as the National Pro-Life T-shirt Week, 40 Days for Life, National Pro-Life Chalk Day, etc.
Cleveland March for Life
The Cleveland March for Life (the “March”) is an annual event consisting of a half-mile march, presentations by speakers, booths with educational information, and more. The purpose of the March is to promote a respect for the sanctity of human life, to pray together for those whose lives are vulnerable, and to educate the public on related issues.
Youth Rally for Life
The Youth Rally for Life is a key example of our educational focus. The rally brings together youth and young adults and provides an opportunity for their voices to be heard on issues related to the sanctity of life. Youth speak out about the fact that life is a continuum from conception until natural death and must therefore be protected, enhanced, and loved by every member of society.
Educational Materials and Presentations
We recognize that many good and well-intentioned people are ignorant of the true nature of abortion and the impact on those people touched by the tragedy of an abortion. To promote understanding, we provide educational materials to individuals, families, college student groups, and other pro-life organizations. We also coordinate educational presentations to help inform the public on sanctity-of-life issues.
