CHARLOTTE — A pro-life group based out of the Diocese of Biloxi, Miss., has contracted to place a pro-life billboard on Interstate 77 North near Exit 7.
The billboard is located on the right side of the highway, half a mile before the exit.
The billboard is also being displayed in strategic locations near abortion clinics in Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Georgia.
“At this time, we have raised 23 billboards resulting in 7,813,644 total weekly impressions (views),” said Karen Rhodes, president of Diocese of Biloxi Pro Life. “Our mission is to change the minds of women on their way to abortion clinics and with the intercession of Our Blessed Mother, we pray to help them choose life.”
