Enjoy touching testimonies of life from Embrace clients while enjoying a delicious steak and salmon dinner catered by Corporate Caterers.

The 2023 keynote speaker is Kailee Perrin, a former pregnancy center client whose life was changed after visiting her local center.

What do you do when at 18 you find yourself addicted to drugs and alcohol, and find out you’re pregnant?

This is the position Kailee Perrin found herself in. Kailee’s boyfriend was a drug dealer and decided to pay for an abortion so that they could both go with their lives.

Through an unlikely series of events, Kailee found herself in a pregnancy center. Thinking that they offered abortions, she walked in, and instead found the acceptance, hope, and love that she so desperately needed. She decided to keep the baby and go into rehab.  After entering rehab, she began a relationship with Jesus. Not long after that, she found out that the father of her baby had turned his life around and wanted to be the father their child deserved.

Today they are married, and have had two more children.

Kailee’s story is a powerful reminder that no one is too far removed from God, and that hope shines the brightest in the darkest places. Her story has inspired many, as she continues to be a voice for the unborn, and the mothers that carry them.
