The 38th annual March for Life in Washington D.C. will soon be getting underway. Various parishes across the Diocese of Rochester are assembling buses for parishioners, as well as all those who support life, to travel to Washington and participate in this important rally.

Here is a list of participating parishes, cost for transportation, and pertinent contact information (c/o the Catholic Courier):

• St. Mary Our Mother, 816 W. Broad St., Horseheads; and All Saints, 222 Dodge Ave., Corning. Cost is $45. All Saints is expected to send a sizable youth contingent. Contact Steve at 607-739-9282 or Sharon at 607-734-2680.

Of course one is more than welcome to make the trip on their own if they so choose. The March for Life will take place on Monday, January 24th. The buses in the above list will depart the evening of the 23rd and return the following night. Please show your support for innocent unborn children. The ghastly evil of abortion must end, and we should all find some peaceful way to work toward that goal. God bless everyone who participates in this cause.
