Sonora, CA– Co-founder of the West Coast Walk for Life, Delores Mehan will be coming to Sonora Tuesday to encourage Mother Lode residents to participate in the San Francisco march to stop abortion.
Tuesday, Mehan will be speaking in the Community Parish Hall at St. Patrick´s Church in Sonora at 7pm. There, organizers will be speaking about the walk followed by a presentation from past walks. Mehan says the walk is not only an event but a movement as well.
This year, organizers say they are anticipating about 20,000 participants. Mehan says the overall message is that abortion hurts women. She says the reason the group does the walk in San Francisco is because the city has one of the highest abortion rates in California. The West Coast Walk for Life is set for San Francisco on January 20th.
