The Board of Commissioners in Yadkin County, North Carolina voted 5-to-0 to pass a resolution to be a safe place for unborn children. Approximately an hour north of Charlotte, Yadkin County has a population of 37,000. The county seat is Yadkinville.
Pastor Keith Pavlansky, who led the charge, stated, “Yadkin County is the first full county in the nation to become a sanctuary for preborn children. This resolution is the first step in adopting a culture of life in our community.”
Keith Tucci, the former director of Operation Rescue National and a leader with the Network of Related Pastors said, “True sanctuary areas are designed to protect the innocent, not the guilty. We are asking pastors and other pro-life people across America to declare that unborn children in their areas are safe from the abortionist’s knife.”
