CAPE GIRARDEAU PRO LIFE RALLY

Last Friday was the March for Life in Washington DC. the march protests Roe v. Wade, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision that ruled a woman has the legal right to end her pregnancy.

Several adults and youth from the area met at Arena park on Sunday for a anti-abortion demonstration. The group marched behind the park up to Kingshighway, where they held signs and spent time in prayer for our nation, the rights of the unborn and all those effected by abortion.

Tisha Todd, of Jackson, Missouri, said she found about the march and thought it was very important for her and her 10 year old daughter to come and "stand up for truth and righteousness and to get the word out there that abortion is wrong".
