 I am not silenced by the darkness.
(Job 23:17)
Tuesday, October 19 is the 2010 Pro-Life Day of Solidarity.
Today, participants in 3,743 schools in 30 countries have taken a vow of silence, standing in solidarity with those who will never have a voice – the unborn lost to abortion.
A red arm band, mouth band, or pro-life t-shirt identifies participants. They carry fliers to explain why they are silent and to educate others about the plight of the approximately 4,000 innocent children lost each day to abortion.
The Pro-Life Day of Solidarity accomplishes several things.
-
It raises awareness among students in schools and colleges about abortion.
-
 It opens the door for people to learn about abortion when participants distribute literature.
-
It provides opportunities for women and girls considering an abortion to think twice. Since the inception of the Pro-Life Day of Solidarity, dozens of babies’ lives have been saved because participants offered pregnant girls a different option.
-
It allows participants to take a stand for their pro-life beliefs in a visible way.
Perhaps most of all, it allows participants and observers alike to experience the fate of a child who no longer has a voice … because that voice has been silenced.
 Merciful God,
Open hearts and minds during the Pro-Life Day of Solidarity. Allow people to understand that abortion silences a life. Help pregnant women who are unsure of their next step to choose life as a result of today.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
