After a send-off Mass at the Cathedral of St. Paul Jan. 21, youth and chaperones from around the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis loaded buses headed for the national March for Life Jan. 24 in Washington D.C. "We're part of something bigger than us," said Bill Dill, youth ministry events coordinator for the archdiocese, after the Mass. "That's the beauty of what we're doing." About 275 people were signed up to make the trip, which was organized by the archdiocesan Office for Marriage, Family and Life. During the send-off blessing, Bishop Lee Piché told the group, "This is a beautiful thing you're doing that will give you much joy." Photo by Dianne Towalski / The Catholic Spirit
