Sacred Heart will provide a bus to the annual March For Life in Washington, DC that will leave the Church parking lot at 6:30 AM on Friday, January 22nd, 2016. Mass for the faithful of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia who are attending the March For Life will be celebrated by Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M, Cap. at 10:00 AM at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC. The bus will arrive at the Shrine by 9:30 AM allowing enough time to celebrate Mass. Following Mass, we will reconvene with the bus and head over to the National Mall at approximately 11:30 AM to gather with the Archdiocese of Philadelphia for the March.
The annual March for Life Rally is from noon-1 PM on January 22, 2016 and as customary, will be on the National Mall. The March will begin immediately after the Rally and follow its route up Constitution Avenue to the Supreme Court Building on Capitol Hill. There will be time to meet with your representatives before convening with the bus for the trip home.
We will be eating on the bus so please pack meals that that will allow you to eat on the bus to allow as much time as possible at the March. We will return to Sacred Heart's parking lot by 7:00 PM.
