For the past several years the Sioux Falls Area Right to Life elected to take on the role of organizing the annual Life Chain event here in Sioux Falls. We were happy and excited to accept the invitation to do so from the previous Life Chain organizers. This last year 750 people lined 41st Street from Kiwanis Ave to Sertoma Ave in peaceful prayer to show their support for the end of abortion.
PURPOSEStand with tens of thousands of pro-life individuals throughout the USA and Canada, in honor of the millions of babies whose lives have been lost to abortion. Pray for people in crisis pregnancy situations, for women who have been hurt by abortion and for our nation.
