The March for Life
On June 24, 2022, the United States Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in the case of Dobbs v. Mississippi, not only overturning of Roe v. Wade, but also giving the states to regulate any aspect of abortion not protected by federal law. While this was a great victory for the protection of human life from the moment of conception to the moment of natural death, as well as for the dignity of women and minorities, states like New Jersey still have abortion on demand and have marketed themselves as a new type of "sanctuary state" in the worst possible sense. That's what makes what occurred on Friday, January 20th in Washington, DC all the more important. The March for Life, which has taken place on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade since 1974, continues to take place at the Capital and the Supreme Court in Washington, DC. Hundreds of thousands of peoples of faith and people of good will not only continue to advocate for the dignity and the protection of the most vulnerable among us. We must continue to pray and offer our support to women and young families in need and in crisis. As Catholic Christians, it is our obligation to pray for the end of abortion and to be a true sanctuary and refuge for anyone who experiences the anxiety and stress of an unexpected pregnancy. For we are called to remember that while the march is only one day, we are called to be Pro-Life the other 364. We continue to pray that our nation defends the liberty and justice, not just of some, but for all our brothers and sisters both in the womb and out. Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Rob Sinatra
