An estimated 7,000 people gathered at the state Capitol for the first Virginia March for Life on Wednesday, April 3.

“Today, you are in exactly the right place doing what needs to be done, which is pray,” Bishop Knestout told more than 2,500 people who attended Mass at the Richmond Convention Center prior to the March. “Only God can turn the current culture around. We have gone down a dark road in this country and need the light of Christ to lead us,” he continued.
