3,000 Pray and Protest Against the Decriminalisation of Abortion in Victoria

An estimated 3,000 people gathered on Oct 5th outside the Victorian Parliament to Pray and Protest against the decriminalisation of abortion in Victoria. Some came from as far away as Mildura & Adelaide.

The message was clear - say no to the legal killing of unborn children. The prayers were that Christians would speak out and that our Upper House MPs would vote against the abortion Bill that will come before the Upper House this week.

Other prayer meetings were held in other states and towns to coincide with this meeting.

Action - Continue to Pray

Victorians - PLEASE write to your 5 Upper house MPs in the next 48 hrs - give them a simple message - PLEASE VOTE AGAINST THIS BILL
