WASHINGTON, DC — On Friday, January, 27, 2016 Orthodox Christians from across the USA will be among those gathering in the Nation’s Capital to participate in the The 43rd Annual March For Life which marks the 44th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion in the United States [Due to the Presidential inauguration of President-Elect Donald Trump, this year’s March is being held one week later than usual] The theme of this year’s March is “The Power of One.”
The March will begin at noon on the grounds of the Washington Monument. Orthodox Christian participants are asked to gather at the “Orthodox Christians for Life” banner, which will be prominently displayed to the right of the stage near Constitution Avenue, between 15th and 17th Streets North West. Orthodox hierarchs will be present on the stage for the opening prayers and presentations prior to the March.
