Pastor Ricky Rohrig, Sr. joined the Iowa Right to Life Speakers Bureau in mid April. Rohrig is the founding pastor of Crossroads Community Church in Red Oak and serves on the Executive Board of the Baptist Convention of Iowa.
Pastor Rohrig was adopted when he was 3 days old. His biological mother was 15 in 1973, the same year that Roe v. Wade passed. She gave him the ultimate gift, life.
“I am excited to minister alongside Iowa Right to Life”, stated Pastor Rohrig, Sr. “In today’s counter culture, it is important and imperative for Christians to stand up for what we believe in.”
“Iowa Right to Life is on the forefront and is the largest Pro-Life organization in our state. They offer support, guidance, training and information to equip Pro-Lifers to be educated, well-versed, cognizant and prepared to defend, protect, support and to preserve life from the moment of conception until a person’s last breath.”
“It is an honor, privilege and blessing to be part of a great organization and to be part of the Speaker’s Bureau and the Iowa Right to Life team”, Rohrig, Sr. concluded.
“This is such an exciting time at Iowa Right to Life”, said Jenifer Bowen, Executive Director of Iowa Right to Life. “With Iowa abortion rates plummeting and more than a dozen Planned Parenthoods closing in recent years, we know our tireless educational outreach is having a life-saving impact on our culture.”
“Our Speakers Bureau , launched in 2013, is a vital part of our educational efforts. We are so pleased to have Pastor Rohrig, Sr. join us as we have a tremendous need to impact the thousands of churches here in Iowa. We would love to help equip your church, class or community to be even more effective in sharing the message of life.”
“It’s in boldly proclaiming the truth that we will continue to roll back the culture of death that has permeated our nation. One day we will see a culture of life and hope restored,” concluded Bowen.
Pastor Rohrig, Sr. is excited to offer his expertise on Abstinence, a Testimony of Why Every Life Matters, Adoption and much more!
