From the Pro-Life Memorial Day website:

Since the U.S. Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton in 1973, 49,640,776 babies have been surgically and medically aborted – millions more have been killed chemically. This staggering death toll is the direct result of these two decisions.

On the first Monday in October, the U.S. Supreme Court begins its new term. This is a day on which pro-lifers across the nation will mourn the victims of America’s hidden holocaust: abortion.

Who will hear the cries of these preborn children? Who will be their voice? Who will mourn their deaths? On October 6, thousands of Americans nationwide will be mourning the victims of abortion by wearing black armbands, gathering for prayer and candlelight vigils at the U.S. Supreme Court and abortion facilities nationwide, wearing the official Pro-Life Memorial Day 2008 T-shirt and engaging in many other activities.

This is a great day to organize prayer vigils not only to remember the millions of lives lost and ruined by abortion but also to pray for the future of the Supreme Court and the possibility of a day without Roe v. Wade.

I ordered my memorial day t-shirt yesterday. This year they are also offering armbands. Order yours soon if you want to receive it before Oct. 6!
