Thank you for praying with us today!
IMPORTANT: If possible, stand 10 feet or more away from the closest person
(go to the next block if necessary)

Music to help you pray and worship
We have prepared a YouTube playlist of songs which will inspire you throughout your time at today’s Life Chain. (We recommend that you listen to the music but not watch the videos, because that may be a distraction.)
We apologize for the ads (inserted by YouTube) — skip them if you can.

Our LifeVigil prayer booklet, written by Tim Palmquist, leads you through an hour of prayer against abortion, guided on each page by God’s Word.
