    Kickoff Rally
    This spring's Spokane 40 Days for Life kickoff rally features Jim Anderson, Director of Lifeline Ministries, International, who for more than 20 years has been fighting for life in our region. As a veteran of the front-line battle against the evil of abortion, we would do well to listen to this gentle, Godly man. Jim will share the microphone with a new generation of pro-life Andersons - his daughter Rachael, who has some keen insights and a passion for changing our culture of death. These are talks you won't want to miss! The rally takes place at Planned Parenthood -- 123 E. Indiana Sunday, February 19 at 2:00 P.M. Click the Kickoff Rally link above for more information about the rally and Jim's latest book - Unmasked.
