DIOCESE—In light of COVID-19, the national celebration for Life Chain Sunday has been moved to Nov. 1 for 2020.
However, since the first Sunday in October has traditionally been Life Chain Sunday, Life Chains will also stand in silent, prayerful witness against abortion on Oct. 4, including the majority of those in South Carolina.
Organizers encourage everyone to participate. Times typically run from 2-3:30, but dates and times can vary, so please check with the coordinator in your area:
