Hi John

There was another massive turnout at this year's All-Ireland Rally for Life in Dublin on Saturday 1st July. The crowds gathered in Parnell Square from 11am, and at 2pm the march proceeded through Dublin City Centre to the main stage at Custom House Quay.

As always, the Rally for Life was a fun-filled, family day out, with colourful signs and balloons, music and uplifting and inspirational speeches.

Director of Precious Life, and co-founder of the Rally for Life, Bernadette Smyth "rallied up the troops " urging them to continue fighting the evil of abortion, and send out a clear message to the world that the pro-life people of Ireland WILL WIN in our efforts to make abortion not only illegal, but UNTHINKABLE.

Isabel Vaughan Spruce - co-director of March for Life UK, and was arrested for silently praying at an abortion centre
Senator Sharon Keogan - who has passionately stood up for the right to life of the unborn within the Irish Seanad,
Mattie McGrath TD - a long standing independent pro-life TD for Tipperary
Dr Trevor Hayes, OBGYN - has continually spoken out in defence of the right to life of the unborn
