Media Advisory: Life Chain to draw thousands into the streets across Canada
Toronto, Oct. 3, 2014 – On Sunday, October 5, 2014, the National Life Chain will take place once again across Canada. Thousands of Canadians from coast to coast will line the streets to profess their firm belief in the value of life from conception until natural death.
Participants will hold signs that read:
-ABORTION KILLS CHILDREN
-ADOPTION THE LOVING OPTION
-ABORTION HURTS WOMEN
-LIFE THE FIRST INALIENABLE RIGHT
Life Chain is a peaceful, prayerful witness to the sanctity of Life. Participants are encouraged to pray for an end to abortion during the hour while giving a visual statement that abortion is grievously wrong because it kills unborn children and harms women. Many post-abortive women and men who were involved in abortion are among the participants.
What: The National Life Chain.
Where: Intersections and sidewalks in more than 200 locations across Canada (see here)
When: Between 2-3pm on Sunday, October 5, 2014. (hours may vary in some locations)
