Hike For Life Texas
Hike for Life (H4L), Texas’ oldest Pro-Life event. We hope that you will be part of H4L for many years to come so that you can spread the Pro-Life message in your community, thus allowing many lives to be spared from the dreaded scourge of abortion.
Hike for Life (H4L) has been in existence since 1973. It was formed by Knights of Columbus to go against the notion that abortion is a right, that it would end unwanted children, and that it would end child abuse. Those proponents of abortion seem to forget that abortion is the most ruthless form of Child Abuse. The hike has raised funds to aid local Pregnancy Help Centers, Maternity Homes and local Pro-Life Ministries every year that it has been in existence. It has three goals that it strives to meet each year. ..
Three goals to achieve each year.
- To Raise awareness that we all need to be more involved in Pro Life, that innocent lives are lost every day and that it isn’t going stop without our help
- To raise funds for Pregnancy Help Centers, Maternity Homes and Pro-Life Ministries so that they may continue their life saving mission.
- To distribute Pro Life literature and t-shirts. While many Pro-Life walks around the country require that you bring in hundreds of dollars before receiving at-shirt, we don’t. We want these shirts out in the public so that others will see the beauty of life. You never know who will see your shirt when you are walking around or standing in line at the store … so wear your shirts often because you could save a life.
