BOSTON – In her legendary 1994 National Prayer Breakfast speech, Mother Teresa exclaimed: "I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child… How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love."
The veterans of the pro-life movement in South Boston know a great deal about this love.
As founding Executive Director of Gateways, a regional special education consortium, Arlene Remz has become a well-known figure far beyond the Boston Jewish community her organization serves. Remz launched Gateways in 2006 from her bedroom alcove, and developed it into a multi-million dollar operation that serves a wide range of children with disabilities.
