Pray for Those Who Are Heading to D.C.

Saturday night many people from across our archdiocese will begin loading buses and heading to Washington D.C. for the Pro-Life March. 

The 35th Annual March will be held on Tuesday January 22nd from 1-4 pm.  There will be a Youth Mass held at the Verizon Center at 9 am that morning. 

The Pro-life March is a powerful way for all of us to defend the rights of human life, especially for those who do not have a voice.  May our joyful witness speak to the hearts of all those who enact laws in our country. 

Anyone who is not going on the March should pray for all of us who are.  Please pray for safe travels and that we may truly be a witness to the dignity of human life.  Your prayer can help strengthen all of us who are in D.C.

If you'd like to learn more about the Church's teaching on the value and inviolability of human life, I'd highly recommend Pope John Paul II's Encyclical Letter Evangelium Vitae.
