WICHITA -- The shuttered clinic of slain abortion provider George Tiller has remained a battleground in the contentious abortion debate.

On Saturday, anti-abortion forces plan to place hundreds of flowers to honor the unborn babies who were aborted at Women's Health Care Services. A prayer vigil and memorial service is planned at noon by Operation Rescue and Rev. Patrick Mahoney of the Christian Defense Coalition.

They will be met by demonstrators from the Kansas National Organization for Women who plan a counterprotest in support of abortion rights.

Other anti-abortion events include a so-called prayer walk Saturday across town. Prayer vigils are also planned Friday and Saturday at local churches.
