Gail is very much at home challenging audiences to choose life. Over her lifetime she has found the ability to choose life and, along with her husband, Tony, enjoy the gifts of five miracle children that the doctors said they would never have. These children came at a high cost with doctors trying to bully her toward abortion when her health was found to be in jeopardy. Her life message goes beyond political and social ramifications and her challenge to pro-life audiences is to make the decision to choose life every day. Yes, babies lives and our country’s very future is at risk because of the death culture of abortion on demand, and something concrete must be done, but at the crux of the solution is Gail’s message to make a love for life and all its implications our one main priority. Gail’s prophetic tendencies create poignant challenges to the audience to become proactive in any and every way in hopes of saving lives and see those lives enjoy the life they are intended to have.

It is with delight that I whole heartedly recommend Gail McWilliams
to you for your next event. Gail, and her husband Tony, served as
our Masters of Ceremony for our annual fundraising Gala. The Governor
of our state of Texas served as our keynote speaker. While I knew
the Governor’s name recognition would bring many to our event, I
knew that all would leave remembering Gail’s words and the McWilliams
family’s story. And, of course, the comments following our event
have been ones raving about Gail! …Gail is not only a gifted communicator,
but her love for life and desire to honor God in all she does shines
through the countenance on her face and the words that she chooses.
She caused the audience to feel privileged to partner with our organization
and helped them to understand the urgency of the need for their
involvement. We had many who attended our event that had never been
exposed to our organization before. This generally means a minimal
donation, if any. Over half of our gifts that evening came from
new donors, proving that Gail helped the audience understand the
importance of their participation. -CAROLYN CLINE, Executive
Director, Downtown Pregnancy Center, Dallas, Texas
I first met Gail McWilliams at a Care Net conference and immediately
knew she was a gifted woman with a strong mission. As Executive
Director of the Hill Country Pregnancy Center I am always searching
for a motivating speaker who gives a message of hope while dealing
with the difficult topic of abortion. After hearing Gail speak I
requested that she visit my hometown of Boerne, Texas and share
her unique story…Through Gail’s testimony at our Annual Fundraising
Gala many were encouraged to see beyond their circumstance and trust
God. Her joy was contagious! She was able to energize 440 people
and challenge them to take a closer look at life and realize that
each life is precious. She was also a valuable asset in asking for
donations. The proceeds from this event were one of the best in
our 22 year history…I do not hesitate to recommend Speaker and Author
Gail McWilliams to any group who wants to raise the bar for their
next event. I have every confidence that with God’s guidance she
will deliver all and more than you can imagine. –LEE ANN
JACKSON , Executive Director, Hill Country Pregnancy
Resource Center, Boerne, Texas
As Director of Training, I speak with many pregnancy center directors
each week, many of whom are in need of a banquet speaker. Additionally,
as we train pregnancy centers and maternity homes in how to conduct
successful fundraising banquets our trainers make recommendations
on speakers. We are happy to be able to add your name to this list
and to let people know of your testimony. -LISA HOLUB,
Director of Training, Life Steward Ministries, Knoxville,
Tennessee
If you want to do something completely different, move your audience
and challenge your constituency, we highly recommend that you consider
Gail for your next event. -ANGIE HAMMOND,
Director Duncanville, Texas CPC
I first heard Gail McWilliams speak at Care Net’s National Conference
in September of 2007. I am so very thankful that I was in the audience
when Gail shared her testimony. It is my privilege and joy to tell
you that you will be immensely blessed by Gail’s presence and her
story of God’s hand in her life. We sat in awe at the testimony
Gail shared of God’s loving care for her and His faithfulness to
her family. What a sacrifice Gail made for her children and what
a story of the importance of human life, but the best part of Gail’s
story is the finger that she points to the cross and the glory she
gives to God. We were so encouraged by Gail’s dynamic, uplifting,
determined spirit. She is an excellent public speaker. -KATIE
TRAYLOR, CareNet, Birmingham, Alabama
(Our) fundraising banquet of the Arlington Pregnancy Centers entitled
Crowns of Life was anointed by the presence of Gail McWilliams and
her family. Gail not only communicated life with her message, she
exemplified the depths to which we should go to maintain it. With
the accompaniment of her children surrounding her, she demonstrated
the true gift of life. People responded to the event with generosity
and joy…some of them finally “getting it” through her portrayal
of the importance of life to the Heavenly Father through her sacrifice
to preserve life at an extraordinary personal cost. Some banquets
are not emotional enough…some are too emotional…this banquet was
touching enough to tug at the heart strings and practical enough
to encourage monthly commitments. We were uplifted by the message,
encouraged to continue the race, enlightened through the humor and
overjoyed by the music. The night was one that will live on in the
chronicles of the best banquets of Arlington Pregnancy Center. -BECKY
HYDE, Executive Director Arlington Pregnancy Center,
Arlington, Texas
Gail McWilliams is one of the most captivating speakers I have
ever heard. I was truly moved by her testimony at the Care Net conference
this year. I have been reminded by the Lord through Gail to see
beyond my life and circumstances into what He sees. We loved Gail
so much that we used her DVD story to appeal to our donors! I would
recommend her to speak to any group, and I would go to hear her
speak again and again. I thank God for using her to move my heart,
but mostly I thank God for using her to help save lives! -KAY
SANFORD, Care Net, Donor Relations, Birmingham,
Alabama
We were so blessed to have Gail McWilliams speak at our 25th Annual
Fundraising Banquet this year. The day before our event, Gail made
a personal visit to tour our pregnancy center and met the staff.
This personal attention had never been given to our center before
by a keynote speaker. The visit broadened her awareness of the work
we do and our vision as she shared on the evening of the banquet...Gail’s
personal testimony touched the hearts of our guests with her enthusiasm
and passion for life. Her humor and touching stories concerning
the daily challenges she faces inspired our audience. Our goal for
the banquet was $31,000. We raised $37,000! Gail encouraged the
guests in making a generous one-time donation that evening as well
as challenging them on the value of committing to a monthly pledge.
Some of our guests made the following comments: "It will be
hard to top Gail at the next banquet. She was truly a gift!"
"I thought the speaker was excellent! It tied in great with
the mission of the center." "Gail was inspirational!"
It was an absolute delight and honor to have Gail speak at our banquet.
Our guests responded to her with a standing ovation. We highly recommend
her. -JEAN P. MIMS, Executive Director,
Community Pregnancy Center, Mooresville, North Carolina
