thousands in
march for life
in nation's capital

Approximately 35 John Carroll students and accompanying staff and faculty last week (Jan 22) participated in a march through Washington DC calling for an end to abortion in the United States.

Earlier they had joined students from Jesuit universities from across the country at the Cardinal O'Connor Conference on Life at Georgetown University, followed by a "powerful"
liturgy at St. Aloysius, a downtown parish.

Before departing on the trip participants had gathered for a workshop led by Emma Hayes of Campus Ministry and Dr. Paul Lauritzen of Religious Studies / Applied Ethics on the "Consistent Ethic of Life," defined as opposition to abortion, capital punishment, economic
injustice, assisted suicide and euthanasia, and unjust war.
