Andrew Philbin – Sidewalk Advocates For Life
www.sidewalkadvocates.org
Andrew Philbin is a life-long resident of Cleveland, Ohio who had a strong reversion back to his Catholic faith two years ago. He answered God’s call to be a voice for the voiceless and became the program Director for Sidewalk Advocates for Life – Cleveland. This group, since its inception on the feast day of Our Lady of Guadalupe in 2020, has helped 63 women to walk away from the busiest abortion facility in the State of Ohio and into life-affirming resources that they desperately needed to make a choice for life. He attended Saint Ignatius High School and washed airplanes at Burke Lakefront after school in exchange for flying lessons at the age of 14. He is currently employed as an Airbus captain and Lead Line Check Airman at a major airline.
If 2020 has taught us anything, it is that fear is an extremely powerful emotion. If we asked anyone five years ago if they thought all Catholic Churches would shutter their doors and we would not have access to the real presences of our Eucharistic Lord, the thought would be inconceivable. Women facing unexpected pregnancy are afraid. How do we as Catholic Christians respond to that fear and give them that which sets us apart from non-believers, hope?
