Media Advisory: Life Chain expected to draw over ten thousand pro-lifers to more than 200 locations across Canada
Toronto, Sept 21, 2018 – On Sunday, September 30, 2018, pro-lifers from all over Canada will gather at intersections and alongside roadways at over 200 locations to participate in the annual National Life Chain. For one hour, they will pray silently while holding signs proclaiming their support of the right to life.
The signs bear messages such as:
-ABORTION KILLS CHILDREN
-ADOPTION THE LOVING OPTION
-ABORTION HURTS WOMEN
-LIFE THE FIRST INALIENABLE RIGHT
“Life Chain is a tremendous show of unity amongst pro-life Canadians,” said Josie Luetke, Life Chain Canada committee member. “From coast to coast, young and old join together to peacefully testify as a community to the truth that abortion kills children and harms women and to pray for an end to this injustice. Through their witness, countless are reminded of our ever-present duty to defend the vulnerable.”
