We are greatly encouraged by the hundreds of thousands of people who braved the bitter cold to participate in this year's March for Life. Pro-lifers of all ages and faiths were present, but the large majority were young people, proclaiming themselves to be the pro-life generation. Other marches to stand up for life took place across the nation, including major cities such as Chicago and San Francisco.
Our prayers are with all those who stand up for the dignity of unborn human life!
