SOUTH AFRICA: NATIONWIDE DEMONSTRATIONS AGAINST THE ABORTION LAW SWEPT THE COUNTRY AS PROLIFERS MARCHED TO PARLIAMENT.

Traffic was brought to a standstill in parts of Cape Town on 31st January 2019, as marchers processed through the streets, mourning the estimated one million six hundred thousand (1 600 000) babies in South Africa who have lost their lives through abortion - legally - with taxpayers' money. 

Preceded by a hearse, black-clad mourners marched in funeral procession in memory of the hundreds of thousands of aborted babies who have never had a funeral.

People from Worcester, Velddrift, Hermanus, Malmesbury, Durbanville, Bellville, Klipjeville, all parts of Cape Town and Kroonstad Free State marched to show their solidarity with the right to life of the unborn citizen in South Africa.
Country-wide pro-life demonstrations on, or near to 1 February 2019 have also taken place in Bloemfontein Free State, Durban KwaZulu-Natal, East London Eastern Cape Province. with the prolife demonstration in Pretoria Gauteng to be held on 2 March. [1]

Many of the marchers carried small coffins, crucifixes and wreaths. As they wended their way through the streets, untold vehicles hooted in solidarity with the demonstrators. 
Behind the procession, the Africa Christian Action trailer displayed pictures of preborn babies with the Scriptures, "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves" Proverbs 31:8, and "Choose life so that you and your children may live," Deuteronomy 30:19,

PARLIAMENT
Tiny coffins together with crucifixes were gently laid in memoriam of the tiny children forever lost to our country. 
May they find peace in the arms of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Who died as ghastly a death as they did. 
Wreaths were placed on the coffins, and many eyes were wet as the marchers mourned the lost infants. 
A moving memorial service was held.
