Catholic Pro-Life Ministries in New Mexico

Sanctity of Life Awareness and Unity Day Was a Success

Tue Jan 24 6:53 pm

There was a great turnout for the Sanctity of Life Awareness and Unity Day in Santa Fe on Wednesday, January 18. The latest count was that around 2,500 people attended. There was a tremendous showing by the public on their stand for life.

A strong united message was sent to leaders in Santa Fe that 39 years of abortion has left mothers and fathers forever wounded, our community in shambles and 54 million lives forever silenced. SOLAUD was the perfect pro-life rally to begin 2012 as the year to restore justice to our pre-born brothers and sisters.

The anniversary of Roe v. Wade was only days away when pro-life supporters showed up by the hundreds in downtown Santa Fe. Read the entire KOAT Channel 7 News article.
