TROY, Ohio, Oct. 20 /Christian Newswire/ -- Stand True, Christ-Centered 
Pro-life, will hold its fifth annual Pro-life Day of Silent Solidarity 
on Tuesday, Oct. 21. As of this morning hundreds of thousands of 
students from over 4,000 campuses worldwide have registered to take part 
in this groundbreaking event. Stand True expects more than 200,000 
students to stand in solidarity with each other to bring attention to 
the holocaust that is killing almost 4,000 babies every day in the 
United States alone [by surgery].

"The students are speaking loud and clear, they want an end to legalized 
child killing" said Bryan Kemper, president of Stand True Ministries. 
"We are getting thousands of e-mails, comments and internet messages 
from students thanking us for giving them a peaceful way to stand up and 
be counted."

Here are just a few of the comments we have received from the students.

"I got one girl to not get an abortion because I took a ZERO in class 
for this and she started crying. She pulled me into the bathroom and 
told me she was pregnant and was going to have an abortion and she said 
because of how much this meant to me she didn't! We both sat in the 
bathroom and cried for a few min. and she put the baby up for adoption!"

"I'd just like to say that abortion is just utterly wrong. My mom had 
two abortions before me and she suffers from the emotional scares every 
day. I always wondered what it would be like to have an older brother or 
sister and I'll never know."

"This is one of the most powerful and influential stands I've ever been 
called to be a part of, awesome guys."

"All of my friends want to do this yay! I was going to be killed by my 
birth mother but she kept me and I am now adopted and have loving parents!"

"Thousands of American babies are permanently silenced every day by the 
violent act of abortion," said Bryan Kemper, President of Stand True 
Ministries. "This day is in honor of those children, and we will stay 
silent as an act of solidarity with these innocent victims."

Students will not only remain silent but will also wear red armbands 
and/or red duct tape on their mouths, and distribute educational flyers 
to anyone who asks why they are silent. Many home-schooled students will 
also participate in the event by visiting local malls and other public 
areas to distribute flyers.

Participating students are instructed to be respectful to teachers and 
other officials and to speak with them when required.

Over the past few years many schools have tried to stop students from 
participating and quash their First Amendment rights. Every year, 
attorneys from the Alliance Defense Fund defend these students and file 
lawsuits to protect their rights.

"Thousands of American babies are permanently silenced every day by the 
violent act of abortion," said Kristan Hawkins, Executive Director of 
Students for Life. "This is a day for pro-life students to honor those 
children as they stay silent as an act of solidarity with these innocent 
victims."

There is no cost to participate in the event. Flyers are available for 
download in PDF format at www.silentday.org
