Recognizing the
Sanctity of Human Life
On January 13, 1984, President Ronald Reagan issued a proclamation designating January 22, 1984, as the first National Sanctity of Human Life Day, noting that it marked the 11th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that established a constitutional right to abortion nationwide.
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 legal.
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.
