-- Chilly temperatures won't deter pro-life advocates from taking part
in the annual Georgia March for Life Wednesday in downtown Atlanta.
Inspirational guest speaker will be Endia Bass, founder of "Out From Among them Ministries."
Sponsored by Georgia Right to Life
(GRTL), the event will begin at 11:30 a.m. with a Memorial Service at
Liberty Plaza for the more than 61 million innocent children lost to the
tragedy of abortion. A silent, one-mile march through neighboring
streets will follow.
GRTL President, Ricardo Davis, said the
Memorial Service and March help focus public attention on the pro-life
mission of ending abortion. "There's still a lot of work to be done in
Georgia to protect every pre-born child, as well as the elderly and
infirm."
As evidence, Davis noted that the
number of abortions in Georgia in 2018--28,544--was over 1,000 more than
the previous year. This was in contrast to the national average, which
reportedly continues to decline.
Davis said the ultimate solution is to adopt a Personhood amendment to the state's constitution.
For Atlanta resident Samantha Harrell,
who will be attending her first march, the event is an opportunity to
live out her faith in God.
"You're most like Christ when you
follow His commands to shepherd and assist the weak, the defenseless,
the voiceless, and the poor," Harrell said. "I believe the Memorial
Service and March help humanize that mission."
Georgia Right to Life promotes
respect and effective legal protection for all innocent human life from
earliest biological beginning through natural death. GRTL is one of a
number of organizations that have adopted Personhood as the most
effective pro-life strategy for the 21st century.
