The Anglican Church kicks off the March for Life

From Anglican Mainstream:

Anglicans for Life is pleased to announce that the Right Reverend Henry Scriven, Assistant Bishop in the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh, PA and Anglicans for Life Board Member will give the opening prayer at the March for Life Rally in Washington DC, on January 22, 2008 at noon.

Each year thousands of people travel to Washington DC on the anniversary of the Roe versus Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion all nine months of pregnancy. Busloads of adults, teens and stalwart ‘pro-lifers’ make this annual pilgrimage as a way to acknowledge their support for the sanctity of life.

“To have a representative of the Anglican Communion provide the invocation for such a special event as the March for Life is extraordinary,” stated Georgette Forney, President of Anglicans for Life. “We were very honored when March organizer, Nellie Gray called with the request!”

Bp. Scriven’s prayer can be viewed on TV, as the Rally is shown live on EWTN and C-SPAN at Noon, EST. . .
