Please support SPUC's outreach in Stratford this Saturday

Here's a post from the new blog RSVP Pro-life Youth UK advertising SPUC's outreach this Saturday at Stratford in London. If you have some time this Saturday, please join or visit SPUC's youth activists there; or if not, please spread the word:

SPUC standing up for the unborn in Stratford this weekend 

Last month we reported on the SPUC pro-life stall at Lewisham People's Day. The event is the largest free festival in South East London and Lewisham has one of the highest abortion rates in the UK. We had a great day and I think we had a large number of various positive encounters. Do read more about the day.

One of our team discussing the issues with a member of the public in Lewisham.
This weekend a young team from SPUC are doing it all again, this time in Stratford. Here's what the organisers have to say:
Are you pro-life? Would you like the opportunity to help stop abortions taking place in London? Could you give up a few hours this Saturday to help spread awareness in East London?
SPUC OUTREACH IN STRATFORD
Newham Borough in East London has the highest abortion rate in the U.K. (39.9 per 1000 women) and has the sixth highest number in Europe, with 2,341 abortions taking place every year. BPAS have recently opened a new abortion centre in the area, and so the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children will be doing a pro-life outreach there on Saturday 20th August. We aim to inform the local public about the positive pro-life services available, raise awareness about exactly what is happening in the area, and campaign against the new opening. Join SPUC this Saturday as help is needed to man the stall, distribute pro-life literature and engage with the public.
Meet outside Stratford Tube Station at 10.30am. We will finish no later than 2pm. Other details are on our facebook event page. If you use Facebook, please use the page to invite others to this fantastic event in defence of human life.
Hope to see you there!
