Life-Line - a silent protest of prayer
When: On June 7, 2009 at 1:30 P.M.
Where: Peoria Stadium
We will line up along War Memorial from 2-3 P.M. holding signs with positive pro-life messages that will speak to the hearts and minds of those driving by. This will also be a time spent in prayer for our nation and for the many young women considering abortion.
We will be visiting many churches and schools/school groups to spread the word about Life-Line. We will also have updates through this facebook group. If you have any questions, or would like to get involved with preparing for the event, please email us at amreynolds3@mail.bradley.edu.
Everyone is welcome to participate in this event, but I am especially calling on the Peoria area YOUTH to step up and join the fight against abortion. The more time you let slip away without working against it, the more lives lost.
