Speaker 1: with and with about life Chain. It's coming up this
Speaker 1: Sunday from two to three pm in Sioux Falls. We'll
Speaker 1: tell you how to get involved, but first and tell
Speaker 1: me a little bit about life Chain and what this
Speaker 1: event is all about.
Speaker 2: Oh you bet, Thank you so much for having me John. So,
Speaker 2: life Chain is an hour of public, peaceful prayer and
Speaker 2: it serves as a witness for the unborn and we're
Speaker 2: standing in unity for the dignity of human life. So
Speaker 2: what we do is we basically are praying and then
Speaker 2: go out and live what we believe, which is first
Speaker 2: to love God and then it's to love our neighbor
Speaker 2: as ourselves, no matter their size, their age, or their
Speaker 2: level of development. So a little history on life Chain.
Speaker 2: It began in nineteen eighty seven in California and it's
Speaker 2: grown to over fifteen hundred communities across the US and Canada,
Speaker 2: and it's always every first Sunday of October. So this
Speaker 2: year it's on the fifth.
Speaker 1: Very nice and Seue Falls Area. Right to Life is
Speaker 1: who's putting this on Sue Falls Area. Right toolife dot
Speaker 1: org is their website, and there's a lot of people
Speaker 1: needed to pull off an event like this. It's going
Speaker 1: to be the north sidewalk of forty first Street from
Speaker 1: South Sirtoma to Southwestern Avenue. That is a whole lot
Speaker 1: of people. That's a couple miles, isn't it.
Speaker 2: I think I measured about three and a half miles. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: So it is a long chain and life chain is
Speaker 2: built on the promise we see from second Chronicle seven fourteen,
Speaker 2: which is to humble, prey, seek and turn back to God.
Speaker 2: And our desire is to heal our land and restore
Speaker 2: a culture of life.
Speaker 1: I love that. And if you would like to be
Speaker 1: involved in this, this is something super simple, super easy
Speaker 1: to be involved in. All you do show up on Sunday,
Speaker 1: October fifth. It's from two pm to three pm and
Speaker 1: they've got signs printed, they've got everything coordinated, everything's ready.
Speaker 1: All we have to do is show up.
Speaker 2: Yes, you bet, and and you know the nice thing too,
Speaker 2: is we reach out to many churches and so multiple
Speaker 2: denominations are involved. United together as well as other pro
Speaker 2: life groups like Jacks for Life and the Signs. We
Speaker 2: hold a firm the negligenable right to life and show
Speaker 2: our love for mothers in an unexpected situation as well
Speaker 2: as we're in repentance and also in the memory of
Speaker 2: the many innocent lives that have been murdered. In fact,
Speaker 2: it's sixty six million since nineteen seventy three. That's like
Speaker 2: three thousand a day most recently, so it's a nine
Speaker 2: to eleven every day. It's very serious and as Mother
Speaker 2: Teresa once said, are any country that accepts abortion is
Speaker 2: not teaching its people to love, but to use violence
Speaker 2: to get what they want. And we've of course recently
Speaker 2: seen what happen happens when human life is not respected.
Speaker 2: So where you can go is to get a sign
Speaker 2: is to Life Change Church parking lot at sixty three
Speaker 2: hundred West forty first or at O'Gorman High School parking lot.
Speaker 2: You can pick up a sign. If your church has
Speaker 2: a designated block, go to that block. Or if you
Speaker 2: don't have a church affiliation and just want to show up,
Speaker 2: just come a little bit early, at least fifteen minutes early,
Speaker 2: so you can find your way to a sidewalk so
Speaker 2: you can go right there along Life Change Church or
Speaker 2: Bio Gorman. If you don't have another place to go,
Speaker 2: We would welcome anybody, and if you can't stand for
Speaker 2: an hour, bring a lawn chair. Kids are welcome in strollers.
Speaker 2: We suggest people try to stand ten to twenty five
Speaker 2: feet apart because people can read the signs better as
Speaker 2: they're driving along.
Speaker 1: And I really like that. Again, you're not holding hands,
Speaker 1: you're not blocking intersections, you're not crossing the street, blocking streets,
Speaker 1: so people can go about their way, they can ride past,
Speaker 1: they can see that there's a bunch of people out
Speaker 1: to support this in a very positive, loving way, and
Speaker 1: they have wonderful signs. So again, the thing that's really
Speaker 1: nice about this, it's a peaceful event and it's not
Speaker 1: a negative thing for anybody. It's not causing any sort
Speaker 1: of harm. It's not stopping people from their daily route.
Speaker 1: So get out and be a part of it.
Speaker 2: Yes, definitely. And you know, if we're to love our
Speaker 2: neighbors as ourselves, we want to start with the tiny
Speaker 2: humans because they're the most vulnerable neighbor we have and
Speaker 2: it is very peaceful. We have children of all ages,
Speaker 2: so we love seeing the babies and strollers that accompany
Speaker 2: their parents showing our love for life.
Speaker 1: And thank you so much for taking the time to
Speaker 1: chat with us about it. Again. Sue Falls Area Right
Speaker 1: to Life puts on this event and we've had a
Speaker 1: chance to visit every year the last few years. I
Speaker 1: always look forward to talking to you. It's a very
Speaker 1: nice event that you guys put on.
