Saturday, January 15th, 2022
11AM - 1PM
Rockford Federal Courthouse:
327 S. Church Street, Rockford, 61101
We will begin with a rally and then walk several blocks past the State of Illinois building, and back to the Federal Courthouse to conclude in prayer. The event will end at 1PM.
Since January 1973, over 62 million unborn babies have been killed through legal abortion. Join us in this peaceful and prayerful walk to end the slaughter of our innocent brothers and sisters in the womb.

Route Map / Parking
Our walk route takes us past some symbolic places. First, the Federal Courthouse represents the Supreme Court Building where the Roe vs. Wade decision legalizing abortion was decided. The State of Illinois building houses the offices of local politicians who recently voted to legalize the killing of babies in womb up to birth here in Illinois.
There is plenty of free parking near the rally site and there will be volunteers on hand directing you where to park. For your GPS, you can input: 327 S. Church St., Rockford, IL 61101. There is also a parking garage within a few hundred feet from the rally site at: Concourse Garage, 211 S. Church St., Rockford, IL 61101
