National Parents of the Year 2001

August 1st, 2001 nathaniel No comments

The national Parents of the Year for 2001 are William and Nancy Devlin of Philadelphia. They have five children. They shared about their experience in opening up the Urban Family Council, an inner city pro-life and pro-family ministry. In 1985, while everyone was moving out of the city, they moved into urban Philadelphia to begin their ministry, which focuses on marriage, fatherhood and abstinence issues. Their family is committed to sharing the love of Christ with those in the inner city. William even shared the story of how he was stabbed one night repeatedly by a robber, and how he nonetheless tried to share his faith with him until he collapsed from his wounds.
