HUNTERSVILLE — On Feb. 12, people interested in pro-life advocacy attended a day-long sidewalk counseling training session offered by Sidewalk Advocates for Life Charlotte.

The event, held at St. Mark Church and co-sponsored by the parish’s Respect Life ministry, aimed to train volunteers to be effective, peaceful and prayerful counselors who can minister to abortion-minded women in front of local abortion facilities.

Sidewalk Advocates for Life is a nationwide organization dedicated to training and supporting communities in sidewalk advocacy to offer life-affirming alternatives. Learn more online at www.sidewalkadvocates.org.
