Annual Life Chain

Annually, on the first Sunday in October, LIFE CHAIN invites the churches in each city and town across North America to stand on a designated local sidewalk and pray for 90 minutes, while holding a sign with an approved pro-life sign messages.

LIFE CHAIN - OCTOBER 4, 2026

It was another beautiful life chain on October 4.
A large group of young people from Students for Life joined us. We were blessed with gorgeous weather.
There were more than the usual number of abortion advocates, shouting profanities, but it was still out weighed by the thumbs up and the supportive honks that we received.
It is such a beautiful time connecting with other pro-lifers to stand as a witness for the sanctity of human life.

DES MOINES LIFE CHAIN 2025 PICS

We had many prayer warriors this year, providing prayerful witness and sidewalk advocacy to the women entering the Planned Parenthood clinic.
We even had a passerby come over and join us as she said she felt led by the Holy Spirit to join us in prayer. Despite the darkness of abortion, God’s light always finds a way to shine through.

The easy-to-hold 18" x 22" Life Chain signs are backprinted to feature Prayer Topics, Songs of Meditation, the Life Chain Code of Conduct, and a compelling statement on The Purpose of LIFE CHAIN.

LIFE CHAIN is a time for prayerful self-analysis, repentance, and serious commitment to helping end abortion in our nation. Accordingly, LIFE CHAIN is not chiefly a demonstration, and its witness is not intended for the viewing public only. Instead, its first goal is to minister to its own participants—to those who call Christ their Lord and hold pro-life messages that declare abortion a grave evil that defames the name and holiness of God (Leviticus 18:21). Indeed the Church that Christ founded has drifted into cold indifference toward the sacredness of human life, and the result has been the mindless surgical killing and mutilation of over 45 million preborn Americans, plus untold millions who have fallen victim to abortive chemicals and medical neglect.

Life chain is not sponsored by PULSE LIFE ADVOCATES, but we promote it and support it.
