Thursday, the Family Research Council will host the director and producer of the new pro-life film Voiceless to take part in a panel discussion about the role of movies and media in motivating churches to take an active role in promoting a culture of life.
The film tells the story of a young, reserved war veteran-turned-community outreach leader who puts his life on the line to stand against an abortion facility that has taken up shop across the street from his Philadelphia church. FRC will screen the film at 10 a.m. EST for those who are attending in person prior to the noon EST panel discussion, which will be livestreamed.
Taking part in the discussion are the following:
- Pat Necerato is the writer, director and producer of Voiceless. He has received two nominations for Voiceless at the 2015 Northeast Film Festival for “Best Screenplay'” and “Best Director.” Necerato is also the founder of the Christian ministry, Go Stand Speak, is married to Natalie and has four children.

- Vincent DiCaro is the chief outreach officer for Care Net, which has made Making Life Disciples, 6-part DVD curriculum that trains churches on ministering to folks in the church facing unplanned pregnancies.
- Dean Nelson is the national outreach director at Human Coalition and director of African-American outreach at the Family Research Council.
