Special thanks to those who participated in the “Life Chain” last Sunday in Lott by standing
and praying for an hour in support of Pro-Life. It was a very peaceful and uplifting experience. Many
people honked, waved and smiled to show their support of the unborn! Also, thanks to those who
could not attend but prayed in their homes. God bless each of you.
