About Gianna Jessen
Gianna Jessen was intended to be a nameless statistic, just one of a million lives lost to abortion in the United States the year she was born. Instead of death, though, Gianna survived a late-term saline abortion and entered the world two months premature and weighing just two-and-a-half pounds.
The failed abortion gave Gianna the “gift” of cerebral palsy, as she calls it: “It allows me to really depend on Jesus for everything.”
Her story of overcoming challenges doesn’t end at her birth, though. Gianna has shared a message of hope all over the world — including at the British and Australian parliaments, as well as before the U.S. Congress.
FAQs
Is this a political event?
No, this is a pro-life event! Our goal is for attendees to be encouraged, inspired, and better equipped to be a voice for pregnant mothers and their babies. Oregon is the only state in the country without any pro-life laws. We’ll share our vision for how we can change this in 2018.
What’s the venue like?
St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church is a lovely facility. The main church seats about 700 people and we’re aiming to have every seat filled.
What time should I arrive?
The doors will open at 6pm – 30 minutes before the main event begins. Please arrive at least a few mintues early to find a seat.
What should I wear?
Wear whatever makes you comfortable. There’s no need to dress up, unless you want to!
Will I be able to meet Gianna?
Yes! Gianna will greet guests in the lobby after the main event.
Do I need to bring my printed ticket to the event?
We recommend bringing a printed ticket. However, if you don’t have a printer you can instead show the ticket on your smart phone. We will also have a list of names at the door of everyone who has pre-purchased tickets.
