Many Knights and their families took part in the 36th annual March for Life in Washington, D.C., which marked the anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade.
Each year, more than 100,000 participants march from the National Mall to the Supreme Court building.
The Supreme Council, which financially supports the March for Life, provided a newly designed sign for participants to carry during this year’s march. The new, two-color sign features “We Choose Life,” along with the Order’s emblem.
Knights in Canada are encouraged to organize pilgrimages to the 2009 March for Life in Ottawa, which will take place May 14 — marking 40 years since the House of Commons adopted the “omnibus bill” that liberalized restrictions on such things as abortion, contraception and homosexual activity.
