Reverse Roe vs. Wade, protect human life

Numerous March for Life people did make a great sacrifice by riding a long distance and walking a great deal after we arrived in Washington, D.C., but it was well worth it. We hope to reverse Roe vs. Wade in the near future. This March for Life was for me a deeply spiritual and peaceful walk with so many saintly people.
The Mount Mercy University, Xavier High School, Beckman High School and Loras College students and teachers who attended intend to do many things to help reverse Roe vs. Wade. Three examples are to find time to pray on the sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood and abortion houses and write letters to our senators and others in Congress concerning this.
Maybe some day soon Congress will work for the protection of all human life and have a human life amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Then our country will be an example to our world.
Let all of us protect the unborn, elderly and handicapped, strengthening family life, encouraging chastity and promoting the practice of natural family planning.
