Recognizing the
Sanctity of Human Life
On January 13, 1984, President Ronald Reagan issued a proclamation designating January 22nd as the first National Sanctity of Human Life Day, noting it was the 11th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion in all 50 states.
The need to pray for a culture of life in our community and our nation is vitally important. Abortion, especially chemical abortion, continues to occur – even in our state where abortion is now illegal.
Each January, churches across the country commit themselves to observing the sanctity of human life while praying for our nation and the pro-life movement.
