Right to Life of Southwest Indiana Life Chain is Sunday, October 2
On Sunday afternoon, October 2, at 1:30 p.m., Right to Life of Southwest Indiana will host the annual Life Chain. Life Chain is a silent prayer vigil to protect life and oppose abortion. In this our 29th year of public witness on behalf of rejected PrebornChildren; Life Chain will again fill sidewalks in over 1,500 cities and towns in the U.S. and Canada. It is an opportunity for people to unite in prayer and to stand up for the rights of the unborn. They will stand in honor of the more than58 million children whose lives have been lost to abortion in our country since 1973. Every year young women report choosing life for their unborn children over abortion after reading the signs and seeing the people praying at the Life Chain.
Supporters will line Green River Road sidewalks beginning at the Lloyd Expressway and going south. The Life Chain supporters will gather at Brinker’s Jewelers parking lot at the corner of Green River and the Lloyd Expressway for free refreshments and to pick up signs. Indiana State Senator Jim Tomes is the guest speaker and will present, “A Cry From the Womb.â€Free signs will be distributed beginning at 1:30 p.m. Supporters will line the street from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.
According to Mary Ellen Van Dyke, Executive Director of Right to Life of Southwest Indiana, “Supporters of unborn babies and their moms will stand together respectfully and prayerfully to honor the sanctity of life. This year with all the attacks against the sanctity of human life, conscience and religious freedom and the federal funding for abortions in Obamacare, many prayers are needed.â€
SUPPORTERS OF LIFE WILL HOLD SIGNS THAT WILL SAY:
ABORTION KILLS CHILDREN
JESUS FORGIVES AND HEALS
ADOPTION: THE LOVING OPTION
LORD, FORGIVE US AND OUR NATION
ABORTION HURTS WOMEN
PRAY TO END ABORTION
LIFE—THE FIRST INALIENABLE RIGHT
