Individuals participating will spend the hour praying for all those who have been hurt by abortion, all of the lives lost to abortion and for an end to this horrific act. Participants will peacefully hold up signs as they form a "chain" along the sidewalks that run down McPherson Road beginning at where it intersects with Hillside Road.
