International Life Chain Day - 5 Oct 2003 About 200 – 250 people gathered for International Life Chain Day, on 5 October, 2003, at the Durban dolphinarium to commemorate the right to life of the unborn. Once again SA’s conscience was pricked with the reality that "Abortion is murder". We received a very positive response from those who passed by. The small tracts "What is CFT all about", and "Say no to abortion" also contributed greatly to the Life Chain. Most people receiving the tracts responded positively and many of those passing or driving by showed their support for the right to life of the unborn. Betty Gardner gave her testimony, and spoke very passionately for the unborn. It was touching to hear her, and quite a few wiped away a tear or two. Hanna Pretorius also related a touching story of a woman of 51 who expected a child, and felt resentful towards the child, as she did not want to rear children again. She felt that it was time for her to be grandmother, and not mother all over again. The child was born and for the first five years of this daughter's life, her mother was bitter towards her. Then the mother was diagnosed with cancer and the doctors told her that she would not live. When she broke the news to her daugther, she spontaneously replied, "Let's talk to Jesus about it", and the daughter prayed a touching prayer that the Lord Jesus would heal her mother. When she went back to the doctor, she was healed! That changed and revolutionised her life, and she repented of her bitterness towards her daughter.
