Last weekend, I, along with Eduardo, Cristina, and Alejandra, went to a pro-life training camp run by the New York State Right to Life. It was in Utica, in upstate New York, so we got up early Friday morning to be there in time for the introductory session that afternoon. We heard talks, and did apologetics exercises into the evening and all day on Saturday. We covered everything from abortion to euthanasia, and chastity to organ donation. But don't worry, they did give us breaks and fed us (REALLY good food!), and all the campers were really able to bond. The camp was geared towards high schoolers and early college kids, but even though I was the oldest camper there, it was still a great experience to reaffirm the pro-life principles that I have heard my whole life. It's never a bad idea to go back to the basics, especially with new people, because they will always teach you something new, or help you look at the same problem in a different way.
