field of crosses

The Field of Crosses at Foothill Community Church has a special memorial display for the unborn children of the United States who have been aborted since the Roe v. Wade decision Supreme Court decision on January 22, 1973. Pictures from this memorial have been graciously provided to our Yuba Sutter Right to Life website courtesy of Pastor Jim Carmichael. He writes:

"'We honor our war dead ... 1.2 million ... We remember the children... 46 million'. Each cross represents 50 thousand lives. There are 24 red crosses that represent the 1.2 million war deaths (since 1776 to present time) and 920 white crosses that represent the 46 million children that abortion has taken in 33 years. We did the Field of Crosses for two reasons: (1) to show the enormity of abortion and (2) to create a place of healing. There are millions of children who have never been mourned."
