Emcee Melissa Manion
Having overcome the challenges of teenage pregnancy, Melissa Manion later made the difficult decision to undergo an abortion, which inflicted profound emotional pain and trauma upon her. However, she found hope and healing through her advocacy work as a pro-life speaker. Melissa is a Bay Path University alumna who has partnered with various life-supporting organizations over the years. She has testified before her State Legislature, appeared on Fox News, and delivered speeches at churches and other organizations to promote the pro-life cause.
Special Guests: Joy and Hope Dupell
Repeatedly pressured to abort after doctors declared her daughter to be "incompatible with life" at 12 weeks gestation, Joy never lost hope and welcomed her daughter, Hope, in December 2019. Today, Joy continues to live with resolve as a wife and mother of two fabulous children. "I've dedicated myself to raising them and supporting their growth, and I'm proud to share the amazing journey their lives have brought me on."
