34th Annual March for Life |
|
On Monday, January 22, 2007, a busload of 40 pilgrims from St Michael's World Apostolate joined the throngs in Washington, D.C. in defense of human life from conception to natural death. It was a mild, cloudy day with the temperature in the 40s. Many prayers were said and thousands of Our Lady's messages were distributed and received well. |
 |
|
As soon as we got off the bus, John Benevides and James Donohue had to prepare the powerful loud speaker system so that thousands of people could hear the Rosaries and hymns and join us in prayer as we marched up Constitution Ave. |
