The event is a prayer vigil to bring the community together to remember and mourn for all of those lost to and forever impacted by abortion, as well as to hear Scripture, testimony, and a speaker about this issue.

This year’s theme is “Every Life is God’s Gift.” Our speaker will be Laura Paulus of the Martha and Mary Maternity House in Chicago. We will also have a video message from Archbishop Nathaniel, Chancellor of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Chicago.

One of the highlights of the event is the Candlelight Rose Procession, which is a somber time to pray and remember all of the babies whose lives have been taken, as well as all others who have been affected by abortion.

We would love you to extend this invitation to your Family and Friends!
