The 42nd Annual March for Life will be held on Sunday, January 19 in Little Rock at 2:00 p.m. The observance is a peaceful and prayerful event that attracts thousands of Arkansans from across the state including churches and families to remember the estimated 60 million unborn children who have been killed by legal abortion. This event, sponsored by Arkansas Right to Life, will remember the 47th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in the United States on January 22, 1973.
Staging begins at 1:30 p.m. between Battery and Wolfe Streets on West Capitol Avenue behind the Arkansas State Capitol. At 2:00 p.m. President Andy Mayberry will lead the marchers along with elected officials, invited dignitaries and other special guests to the steps of the Sate Capitol for a brief program. We are excited to announce that we have invited Ryan Bomberger, the founder of the Radiance Foundation, as our keynote speaker. Find out more about Ryan at www.radiancefoundation.org. Arkansas Right to Life, the state's oldest and largest pro-life organization, is an affiliate of the National Right to Life Committee, the leading voice of the voiceless dedicated to protecting all human beings threatened by abortion, infanticide and euthanasia.
