DAN MILLER
Dan’s re-entry into the pro-life movement came quite by “accident” – as he crushed his left leg while using heavy farm machinery in 2009. While recuperating, Dan reflected on the words of St. Teresa of Calcutta - “The greatest destroyer of peace is abortion, because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left for me to kill you and you to kill me? There is nothing in between.” Her words spoke to Dan, leading him to a profound re-version into pro-life work. Since then, he has logged over 5,000 hours sidewalk counseling and personally witnessed over 500 babies saved from abortion. When he left the sidewalks on December 31, 2014 to be State Director of Pro-Life Wisconsin – 620 babies had been saved from abortion through that work – that we know of.
