When admins at Protect Every Child’s Facebook page learned about Maryn Thompson’s banner unfurling story,
we asked if we could share it. Graciously, she granted her permission.
In the picture, Maryn stands outside of Timpanogos Cave. She is one of the many caring souls who have chosen to act on their belief that awareness must be raised.
These are her three compassionate responses to our communications with her:
1.
I hiked to the Timpanogos Cave yesterday and asked the Rangers to take my picture with my banner and I was very happy when they asked questions. 😊 Hopefully I helped bring some awareness to this issue that exists in so many places. Thank you for the work you are doing.
2.
I made my own flag, I hope that’s ok. This movement is so important to me. I have seen so much abuse in so many different religious settings and I just hope that this can bring protection and healing to a lot of people
3.
I just want people to know that this happens so much more then you can even think, and it takes us parents being aware and vigilant to protect our children from ever suffering from such a horrible thing. I thank God for the strength he has given Sam Young to be able to stand strong in this righteous battle! We are all standing behind him with our banners!!

HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Sign the new Petition:
Climb a mountain, hilltop or driveway. Unfurl a banner and share it.
Come to the March for the Children on October 5, 2019 in Salt Lake City.
THIS IS THE BIG ONE.
If we have 5,000 marchers, the national media will be all over it.
Institutions will be warned. Huge awareness will be raised.
Children will be protected. Past victims will take solace.
