300 Crosses
in the island between the south entrances make up St. Joan of
Arc’s annual display to bring awareness to the number of babies
killed by abortion in Central Ohio. The crosses memorialize the
approximately three hundred pre-born children aborted each and
every month in Franklin and surrounding counties. (Actual count
by most recent annual statistics is 3933.) This is a stark reminder
of the magnitude of this modern-day holocaust.
