The
march led around 2000 people through the streets of the capital to the steps of
the parliament building where they were treated to speeches and a couple of
performances.
Among
those who sang on stage was up and coming artist Ana Stilwell.*
Those of
us who are involved with pro-life activities know full well how complicated it
can be to get celebrities or artists onboard. Though many agree with our
ideals, they are either forbidden by their managers to associate themselves to
such a cause, or refuse to perform at pro-life events because they are afraid
of hindering their career.
Ana, on
the other hand, was quick to accept our invitation. All smiles on stage, she told
the crowd that as a mother, currently expecting her third child, she was
thrilled to be there.
After
performing her hit single “Dibba Dee Doo”, she sang a song which was composed
when she found out she was expecting twins. In “Keep you smiling” she asks God
how He could think she was capable of being a mother.
Being
part English on her mother’s side, Ana is fluent in both English and Portuguese
and sings in English. So if you want to support a young pro-life singer, listen to her songs, download them from iTunes, give her a like on Facebook and spread
the word! She deserves it.
*Full
disclosure, Ana is also a relative of mine.
