March For Life – 2013

See the photograph below! Organizers said that 500,000 took part in the March for Life Friday, Jan. 25th in Washington, D.C.! (Picture is from the Defend Preborn Babies and Advocates for Life Facebook posts.) The March was moved a few days beyond the Jan. 22 date of the 40th Anniverssary of Roe vs. Wade because of the Inaugural earlier in the week.

Finally, the NRL News story linked above reports that the Pope used his new Twitter account to reach the Marchers: “It was deeply symbolic at many levels that Pope Benedict XVI, tweeting in nine languages, wrote, “I join all those marching for life from afar, and pray that political leaders will protect the unborn and promote a culture of life.”
