March for Life
Where, oh, where did the March for Life go? Where on the news, I mean! I have checked several sources and not even found a mention, so far. But "yahoo" for Yahoo on this one. Not that I liked everything they had to say, but at least they did feature it!
This year I had the great privilege of being there, along with my high school son. I so wish I had taken my camera! Oh wait, I don't have a camera. (The one I used at Christmas was disposable, you see.)
I don't know how many people were there, but the crowds were absolutely overwhelming. But they were pleasant, kindly crowds.
People of all ages were there, with an abundance of enthusiastic teenagers and young adults among them.
Our group found ourselves, at one point, walking near a very large contingent of people with signs that read, "I Regret My Abortion". Hopefully this will give a message to others that this is not the "solution" some might think.
The talks that were given before the March - as well as the atmosphere everywhere - were filled with hope and trust in God.
You can watch the EWTN coverage by checking their website for the schedule (scroll down).
Although I came home exhausted, I am so grateful that we were able to go!
