Antonio's 2026 Walk for Life Testimony-English

  Antonio

1996 was one of the happiest years I’ve had, but it also was the year I had the saddest day of my life.

In a single month, October of 1996, I went from finding out that I was going to be a father to becoming the father of a baby girl who was killed in the womb of her mother. 
It’s been 30 years, and I still feel the pain, I will always feel some of the pain for that loss.

I loved my daughter from the moment I knew that she existed, but I couldn’t protect her from the people who convinced her mother to have an abortion. My hands were tied by some murderous laws.

I got to know the extreme sadness and the extreme rage a father can feel after losing his child. And especially, I know how unfair it is for an innocent baby to get murdered because she is considered “inconvenient”.

I praise God for allowing me to find some healing through the years, especially when I received the blessing of seeing and kissing my precious daughter’s face in a Rachel’s Vineyard Retreat.

I’ve also realized how important we men are to fight and end abortion in the world.
That’s why I am SILENT NO MORE! —
