I wish you could all be in my shoes at moments like these. When you are directly or indirectly involved in the life of a baby saved from abortion, it makes your heart soar with joy!
You never know when or how your pro-life efforts will make a difference in someone’s life. This is one of those stories!
Friends of Pro-Life Wisconsin Bob and Kathy Kougl recently got together with a fellow churchgoer from Saint Stanislaus Catholic Church to recall their story and document it for posterity. We are grateful to all the people involved in making sure it was told! Here is the story as told by Bob…
In October, our State Director, Dan, our Legislative Director, Matt, and I were in a meeting at a local coffee shop giving some legislative and educational updates to a donor. During the meeting, a man who noticed our Pro-Life Wisconsin logos came up to our table, introduced himself, and showed us a photo on his phone, saying…
Leonardo da Vinci once said: “Iron rusts from disuse; stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind.”

Prior to being the Development Director at Pro-Life Wisconsin, I was in student ministry for 14 years teaching, leading, and shepherding teenagers aged 12-18 through the most transformative part of their lives. I have always had a passion for pointing students to the truth that comes from God’s Word.
That day began like any other day down on the sidewalks in front of the abortion center. On Thursday, November 6, 2025, Ellen* was counseling women entering the abortion center when something happened that was completely unexpected—a reminder that God is working with and through us even when we are not aware of it. He is always faithful.
