On January 24, 2020, a group of St. Bernadette youth travelled to Washington, D.C. to participate in the annual Walk for Life. The March for Life is an inspiring, peaceful. vibrant, and joy-filled rally of women, men, young people, and children from all across the country. Every year, tens of thousands of pro-lifers converge on the National Mall and march on Capitol Hill on the anniversary of the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling which legalized abortion in all 50 states. It’s the largest annual human rights demonstration in the world. Here, they share their remarkable experiences...

We went to the March for Life with St. Bernadette Parish this year and had a great experience. Seeing all the young people there really inspired us to keep fighting for what we believe in. There were about 20,000 kids at the Youth Rally which really showed how much support this movement has , especially form our generation. We can’t wait to go next year and hope more people will join us to enjoy this amazing experience!

We had such an amazing time at this year’s March for Life. We’ve both attended before and every year is a great experience. The National Mall is such a beautiful place, even more so when you’re joined by hundreds of thousands of other Catholics marching for the same cause. Can’t wait for next year! We are so glad to be a part of the pro-life movement and to know that we are making a change!

Going to the March for Life was truly the most incredible experience of my life. Being together with so many other people who are in agreement with my pro-life beliefs alone was amazing, to say the least. In the youth rally, all 20,000 of us in the arena were led in song and praying the rosary, which I will never forget. The sheer number of priests at the Mass was awe-inspiring as well. I estimated 200 priests, including about 25 bishops! I think my mom put it best when she said something like “I don’t know what I was expecting, but it was a lot better than that!” I cannot wait for next year’s event, and I highly recommend going all the way to Washington D.C. for this remarkable experience.
