Every day,more than 3,000 children are killed through abortion and their bodies discarded as medical waste.   it's time to honor their lives and give them the dignity that the tragedy of abortion denied them.

On Saturday, September 8, 2018, Right to Life of Northeast Ohio  will sponsor an interfaith memorial service on the 5th annual National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children, calling on pro-life Americans to honor the gravesites and memorials of our aborted brothers and sisters.

 Please join is in a memorial service at 1PM to be held near the Memorial to the Unborn at Holy Cross Cemetery in Akron.

 

Memorial service participants to date include Denise Leipold (Executive Director, Right to Life of Northeast Ohio), Pastor Daren Brake (House of the Lord, Akron OH ), Fr. Norm Douglas (St. Vincent Church, Akron),  Representative Kristina Roegner (Ohio District 37 ), Ohio Lieutenant Governor Mary Taylor,   Klara McKee (Kent State University Students for Life), keynote speaker Shelly Welden, music from Jeff and Kira Andrea, and the honor and color guards from the Knights of Columbus.  Check back soon for more participants as they become available.
