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 25th, at 1:00 PM Right to Life of Northeast Ohio will sponsor an interfaith memorial service on the 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.
This year, our primary focus will be a memorial service and burial for the aborted child found in the trash this past summer at the Northeast Ohio Women's Center abortion clinic in Cuyahoga Falls.
The service will be held at 1:00 PM at
Holy Cross Cemetery
100 E. Waterloo Rd.
Akron, OH 44319
For further information see Bud Pallotta or
