I was thrilled to learn that Mrs. Debra L. Vinnedge was honored with the Evangelium Vitae Award at the Catholic Medical Association (CMA) conference in Orlando last month. Debi has been an advisor and friend since I first read about vaccines grown in cell lines derived from aborted human fetuses. Our family has been grateful for her efforts to provide parents with ethical and safer alternatives. The CMA recognized Debi for her “outstanding service to the prolife movement” and her accomplishment over the past fourteen years at her organization, Children of God for Life[2]. Cardinal Burke presented her with the award (shown above).

Here’s a list of the fruits of her organization’s efforts since 2000.

Please join me in thanking Debi for all her hard work for our children.
