Ave Maria School of Law Spearheads “Law of Life Summit”

January 10, 2012 | MariaNews.com

NAPLES – Ave Maria School of Law (AMSL) announced today details for the first-ever “Law of Life Summit” to be held at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, January 21, 2012 at 4:00 PM.  The event will gather some of the most prominent national leaders in the American pro-life movement together for a visioning discussion focused on the coming final phase of the fight against the Roe v. Wade legalized abortion regime.  The Summit will also gather top pro-life law students from numerous law schools to closely engage with movement leaders.

“The Law of Life Summit is unlike anything else out there in the pro-life world,” said Royce Hood, AMSL 3L and organizer of the Summit.  “What is different about our concept is that we really want to focus on action.  Everyone attending the Summit understands why abortion is evil and works hard every day against it.  At the Summit we are going to get very specific as to the methods, tactics, and measures that will win these final battles in the fight against abortion.”

The Summit is strategically scheduled to occur the weekend before the March for Life and benefits from having so many pro-life leaders accessible in Washington due to the March.  However, the Summit is more a strategic planning dialogue than political demonstration.  Organizers, including Father Michael Orsi, Chaplain of Ave Maria School of Law, expect that the Summit will “lead to an ongoing and consistent aligned conversation amongst pro-life leaders, young and old, on how energies can be best directed in advance of the cause of Life”.

All members of the press are welcome to cover this event, please contact John Knowles to be issued media credentials.   John Knowles, Director of Development & External Affairs for AMSL:  239-687-5402 (direct)  or email  jknowles@avemarialaw.edu
