The Editor's Thoughts on the March for Life . . .
Letter from the Editor
Volume 1 Issue 3 January 2007
Fellow Trailblazers,
Last week I was able to participate in the annual
March for Life in Washington D.C. It was my fourth time going yet the
experience was unlike any of the previous marches I have attended. I
traveled with a local pro-life group in a bus with about two dozen
other people. We were able to see a little bit of the city but the
highlight of the trip was the actual March.
I would have to say that my most memorable
experience was at a youth rally held at the Verizon Center in D.C. The
entire center was packed. I believe there where even a few people
standing. Mass was held there and I was astonished by the number of
seminarians, deacons, priests and bishops that participated in the
mass. I have never before in my life seen such a large number of
religious gathered in one area. It was a very moving experience.
The March was just as moving. Although I have been
there before, it seemed to me that there where a lot more people then
usual. Maybe it was because I was unable to go last year, but I don't
think that was the reason. I believe that there where a lot more people
then usual. (Though I can't say anything for certain) I firmly believe
that the pro-life cause is finally being noticed and people are paying
attention to it. I pray, that in the near future, those of us who have
participated in the battle will be able to hold a victory march rather
then a protest march. Let us pray that Roe vs. Wade will soon be
overturned and we will no longer have to live with the sin of murdering
some many children.
God Bless,
