    Pro-Life Advocates Scholarship
    Winner
    I was always taught the sanctity of life by my parents. Life begins with conception and ends with natural death, there is no doubt. However, I am also taught by mainstream media that I can't be a feminist and be pro-life at the same time. As I have gone deeper into my beliefs and deeper into my education as a pro-life advocate, I came to realize that I can be an advocate for both with vigor and passion. As a woman in the 21st century, I have personally experienced how awfully society treats women. From being cat-called to being shamed into hating feminine traits that I found in myself, it is hard to own my femininity and be proud of who I am. In this way, feminism is important to me. Advocating for women's rights is essential to me. I am so proud to be a woman However, my beliefs about abortion contradict the modern feminist movement. Abortion is essential to their message and for a long time, I felt like an imposter in the feminist movement. I then started to think about why women are so amazing. They are, in that by just existing they are proof of God's beauty, love, and gentleness. They beautifully emulate the Father's creative nature. Women nurture life in their own womb and abortion is in direct contradiction to women's nature. It destroys and it kills. Abortion is marketed as a necessity to a woman's life, but I have seen it destroy women's lives. The Sisters of Life, women who devote their lives to help pregnant women in need, also help women who have had abortions. All these women severely regret their abortion and find it almost impossible to forgive themselves. Often, women don't know what they are doing when getting an abortion, but as soon as they realize it, the results are catastrophic. Imagine living with the realization that you killed your child? A study titled "Maternal Suicide in Italy" showed that women who had abortions were twice as likely to commit suicide compared to women who had given birth. These results are also found in Finland and the United States. It is clear that abortion destroys women. Education is extremely important to the pro-life movement. I have educated myself about the subject and I helped my high school become more well-versed in the pro-life movement. I joined a pro-life group when I entered high school and helped raised money to support pregnant women. Items like diapers, baby clothing, and food are essential for great organizations, like the Malta House, that help pregnant women in need. During my years of high school, I brought in pro-life speakers to help educate students on the movement and what they can do to help. I volunteered many hours for the Sisters of Life. Although I was given small tedious tasks, like cleaning their retreat house, I knew that my contribution helped them focus more on their mission rather than the endless small tasks that would eat up their time. Being a pro-life feminist is who I am. I have found that I can fight for the rights of the unborn and women at the same time. Abortion hurts women and supporting organizations that help and heal women is essential to help grow a culture of life.
