Speakers

Dr Haywood Robinson

Former Abortionist


Dr. Haywood Robinson will share his powerful personal testimony with the Rally for Life this year, and his story is one of turning away from abortion and towards God.  

His story shows how a relationship with Jesus and knowledge about the medical world can fundamentally change how one views abortion. 

During his residency, Dr. Robinson received abortion training while on the obstetrics and gynecology service. Performing abortion requires so little effort, everyone was doing it, and they didn’t seem to have a problem with it, so why should he? Money became a motivator, especially since the pay was substantial and it was quite evident how abortion training could be profitable. 

But in 1986, Dr. Robinson says he was convicted by God’s Word, which he says exposed the living lie he led killing unborn babies. He is now a particularly loud and powerful voice for the voiceless. He has also answered the call to encourage men and fathers to live their lives in a godly manner and to serve as mentors and role models. He seizes opportunities to go against today’s culture and challenges men to assume their God ordained position as spiritual leaders, protectors and providers for their families and children. 

He speaks with his wife, Daphne, and together, Dr. and Mrs. Robinson collaborate and serve internationally in family, life, and pregnancy care ministry, perinatal palliative care case management coordination, abortion recovery, and reconciliation ministry, as well as medical missions.

Leaflets at the Rally

   

The All Ireland Rally for Life is the largest annual national pro-life event in Ireland which seeks to protect the right to life of every person. It does not espouse any other cause or platform and the organisers ask all participants to participate in a spirit of generosity to unborn children and women with unexpected pregnancies. 

We ask all those in attendance to support the aim and message of the day. With that in mind, we ask that materials and leaflets pertaining to other causes, events or organisations are not distributed on the day.
