I want to thank David Bereit and his family for their commitment to life. My gratitude also goes to Bob Brechtel for organizing the 40 Days for Life in Casper. I am grateful for the support of the Catholic clergy in Casper as all three priests were in attendance today as well as a couple of deacons. Protestant pastors were also in attendance. We especially appreciate the use of the parking lot at Boyd Avenue Baptist Church just down the street from where our vigil is being held in front of Planned Parenthood. Finally, I am grateful for each and every person that came and stood with us today. It was a magnificent day!
The trek from Colorado to central Wyoming was a long one due to the heavy winds. We are grateful that the 40 Days for Life team made it safely. The winds were still blustery today as we stood outside, but not nearly as windy as the day before. The energy in the crowd helped to keep us warm.
