"40" is an inspirational movie that examines the effects of abortion on our nation over the last 40 years since Roe v. Wade. The film presents abortion as the most important human and civil rights issue of our time. "40" gives voice to both sides fairly and lets women speak for themselves through experience on the reasons for their firm convictions about abortion. "40" highlights well-reasoned arguments on this issue and provides heartfelt testimonies from post-abortive women and men.

For more information and to register, please contact Kathleen or Mary at (847) 622-1235 or visit TLCPregnancyServices.com.

All proceeds from this event will benefit the work of TLC Pregnancy Services as we continue to reach out to the many women and children who rely on us for help.
