We thank those that made the trip to Washington DC to stand united with other pro-life people from across the United States. You have traveled through all kinds of weather to participate in the “March for Life” for all these years. We will not give up our fight until every innocent human life is respected and protected. You have worked diligently in your communities to help women in crisis situations know that there is help for them and their unborn children.
And, we stand united to pass pro-life legislation.
Throughout this year, continue to pray for our elected officials in the State House and in Washington as they work to advance protections for innocent human lives at every stage of development. Pray for the passage of pro-life legislation!
