Sunday October 6 saw the return of the annual Oregon Right to Life “Life Chain.”
Held in both Newport and Lincoln City in front of their respective city halls groups of volunteers gathered to voice their support for the unborn.
Approximately 2 dozen prolife supporters silently held signs ranging from “Jesus Forgives and Heals” to “Life, the first inalienable right.”
For the most part passers by showed support for the gathering with many honks and thumbs up of approval. Those that held a differing viewpoint were, as usual, vulgar- bravely screaming obscenities from their moving vehicles.
Phil Magnan, retired Pastor of Calvary Chapel in Lincoln City had this to say about why he and the others gathered; “(We are) Being a visible presence of all those who want children to be treated with dignity, respect and love.”
Life Chain is a national event held every year on the first Sunday of October.
