Arkansas cities will host Life Chains statewide Oct. 6

St. Joseph High School students Sydney Pollock, Mac Nabholz, Elise Williams and Ben Lagasse join parishioners from St. Joseph Church in Conway during the National Life Chain Sunday in 2011 at the intersection of Harkrider and Oak streets. It was also Respect Life Sunday, which began the annual nationwide campaign to witness to what the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops calls "the inherent equality and transcendent value of every human being."
