NEW YORK, March 24, 2018 /
Christian Newswire/ -- You are invited to join the Second Annual "International Gift of Life Walk" in New York City that will begin at 9:00 AM on Sunday, March 25th at Foley Square located at 101 Worth Street in Lower Manhattan. After the rally, the Walk will proceed for about a mile down Broadway, through the Canyon of Heroes, and ending near Stone Street.
The event will begin with a Celebratory Rally honoring five Grand Pro-Life Heroes: Rev. Dr. Clenard H. Childress, Director of Life Education and Resource Network (LEARN), the largest African American pro-life network in America and a featured speaker in the anti-abortion documentary, Maafa 21: Black Genocide in 21st Century America; Fr. Fidelis Moscinski of the Community of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (CFR); Denise Mountenay, Founder and President of Canada Silent No More and an speaker who offers hope and healing to those affected by abortion and pregnancy loss; Fr. Stephen Imbarrato, a Pastoral Associate of Priests for Life; and Dr. Elizabeth Rex, Co-Founder and President of The Children First Foundation, the sponsor of "Choose Life" License Plates in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and in our Nation's Capital, Washington, DC. Nationally, 33 states have approved "Choose Life" License Plates and, together, these pro-life/pro-adoption license plates have been purchased and renewed by pro-life motorists over one million times, raising over $26 million to help fund Pregnancy Care Centers and Adoption efforts.
Back in 2004, the New York State DMV issued a Moratorium on all new Specialty Plates specifically to block the approval of the New York "Choose Life" License Plate. Today, 14 years later, hundreds of important Specialty Plates - including the "9/11 Remembrance Plate" - continue to be unfairly blocked in New York State. In addition, Dr. Rex and her organization's pro-adoption "Choose Life" banner have been banned from marching in the annual "St. Patrick's Day Parade" even though the parade committee has welcomed and invited several gay groups to march with their gay banners.
Thanks to Dawn Eschew, President of Personhood Education New York, several cars with official "Choose Life" License Plates, will proudly drive down Broadway and through the Canyon of Heroes.
