DeKALB COUNTY, Ala. — On Saturday, February 23, DeKalb County pastors and congregants from across the county are invited to show support of the National Day of Mourning that will be observed in Albany, N.Y. The national movement is in response to recent New York legislation regarding late-term abortions. Beginning at 10am on Saturday, February 23 at the Church of God in Rainsville (155 Main Street West), residents will come together to pray.

Prayer will be offered to God in repentance and to ask God to use His power to change hearts and minds. The atmosphere will be marked not by angry confrontation but by love and mercy. The organizers desire to provide an arean for local Christians to make their voices known. 

For more information, please contact Rev. Wayne Hrenyk at (256) 717-5040 or Katie Gillis at (256) 996-0569.
