Life Chain 2008 will take place Sunday,
October 5, 2008, from 2-3 p.m. on University Drive from Sample Road to Miramar Parkway. Please mark your calendar and plan to attend this nationwide pro-life observance.
Broward Right to Life organizes the event locally with help from pro-life leaders in churches across the county. Participants bear prayerful, peaceful witness to the children who have perished and the women who suffer emotional and physical trauma from abortion.
Life Chain participants hold placards that read, “Adoption, the Loving Option,” “Abortion Hurts Women,” “Abortion is Murder,” “Life: The First Inalienable Right,” and “Jesus Forgives and Heals.”
The easy-to-hold signs are backprinted with prayer topics, songs, the Life Chain code of conduct, and the Life Chain purpose statement.
Life Chain participants pray, asking God to end the scourge of abortion that has taken an estimated 50 million lives in America since 1973 when the Supreme Court declared laws against abortion to be unconstitutional.
“More than 15,000 unborn infants lost their lives due to abortion last year in our county alone,” said Tewannah Aman, executive director of Broward County Right to Life. “That’s 15,000 little boys and girls who never had the chance to draw their first breath, to play in the surf, watch a sunset, or to grow up and fall in love. We will be standing on behalf of these unseen, unheard victims.”
Life Chain 2008 takes place Sunday, October 5, 2008, from 2-3 p.m. Please mark your calendar and plan to attend this nationwide pro-life observance.
