LIFE CHAIN: OCT. 2, 2022: 2:00-3:00 pm
Please show your support for our preborn children by joining us for this silent, peaceful family event. People who oppose abortion stand at intersections across the country for an hour, silently praying for an end to abortion while holding signs with messages like: “Abortion kills children,” “Abortion hurts women,” “Adoption, the loving option,” and “Life, the first inalienable right.” Our presence and our prayers are needed now more than ever with our country welcoming Americans unable to have an abortion in their own country. Please arrive 10 minutes early so we can organize ourselves. The locations are: Brookdale and Ninth (meet by the bank) and Marleau and McConnell (meet at Little Caesars Pizza which is on the north-west corner). For further information, please contact: marilynn.light@gmail.com, dtwalsh7@gmail.com or 613-935-5828, prolife@cogeco.net
