March for Life
Join CCM for the 2020 March for Life!
The March for Life is the largest pro-life event in the world, and an opportunity to let your voice be heard in Washington that every life matters - born or unborn, sick or well, young or old, rich or poor. The March for Life marks the anniversary of the landmark decision of the Supreme Court in Roe versus Wade which makes abortion legal in the United States.
This year, CCM is partnering with Christopher Newport University for our pilgrimage to the March. This joint adventure will begin with Mass at the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham in Williamsburg, Va and will conclude with the 47th annual March for Life Rally. Please see below for the full itinerary of events. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to Marianne Guarnieri at mguarnieri@wmccm.org.
