The placing of all the white crosses was somewhat of a tedious task AND it was a sobering reminder that each cross represents a life that is taken each day through abortion. While the figure of 4,000 abortions everyday in our country has gone down about one or two hundred a day (THANKS BE TO GOD!), if we were to have the actual number of crosses representing abortions each year (and could find real estate to put all crosses), we would be (I hope) appalled as we saw miles and miles of white crosses.
The effort to change hearts, minds and laws to reverence and protect Life is always before us. October is Respect Life Month, and I ask you to educate yourselves on Life issues and how to stand up for every human life as a gift from God from conception until natural death. When you pass by the white crosses on our church property, say a prayer for lives lost and hopefully for lives saved through the efforts of so many people.
