“We hope to foster a deeper awareness of the disturbing reality of abortion,” Scheidler told TribLocal. “We hope to enlighten our fellow citizens about the injustice that is being done to children of the womb. We are simply a witness to the injustice and we aim to provide the voice of the unborn children.”
The group is expected to hold their demonstration at Davis Street and Ridge Avenue.
