John Elefante Speaks Life
The song's lyrics are based on the true story of what Sami's 13-year old birth mother might have experienced as she sat in the waiting room at an abortion clinic. As the video plays, we see her dreaming of a little girl who is celebrating her third birthday. The little girl then grows into a young woman and we hear the voice she heard that day telling her to "run away - you're not taking her this time."
In a press release, Elefante talked about the success of the video, saying, "Although I am overwhelmed at our success in such a short period of time, I am not that surprised. This is a subject that folks are extremely passionate about and I feel this video delivers this powerful message in a way that hasn't been done before. Some have called it the new pro-life anthem."
John has partnered with Online for Life (OFL), an educational non-profit group that works to rescue babies from abortion so they can have a chance at life by connecting individuals and families facing an unplanned pregnancy and considering abortion with life-affirming centers that provide caring counsel, free ultrasounds, and complete and accurate medical information, including educating individuals about the emotional and psychological impact of terminating a pregnancySince the video's release, both Elefante and Online for Life have been flooded with messages from those that were touched, affected, and in some cases, changed by the video. In one particular case, a desperate young girl decided not to abort her baby. "That's what this is all about," says Elefante.
