in Washington, D.C.
Doors Open at 6:15am
Rally begins at 6:45am
Young people from the Diocese of Trenton will join their brothers and sisters from dioceses across the United States for the Youth Rally and Mass for Life held in conjunction with the annual National March for Life. The March is held on (or near) the anniversary of the 1973 Roe v. Wade court decision making abortion legal in this country. The Rally strives to encourage the youth participating in the national March for Life in their witness as disciples of Christ and promoters of the Gospel of Life.
The Youth Rally and Mass for Life has inspired, catechized, and evangelized over 18,000 teens on the morning of the national March for Life in our nations capital. Will you join us?! -

Getting Tickets for the Youth Rally and Mass
In order to ensure that more groups are able to attend the rally and celebrate the gift of life as a diocese in one location, once again this year tickets must be reserved through the Dept. of Youth and Young Adult Ministries. If your parish does plan to bring young teens and their families to the National March for Life in January, we would highly recommend your participation in this inspiring event before the official rally on the national mall.
Please send all requests to Jerry Wutkowski at [email protected]
Please keep the following in mind:- Ticket requests must be sent in by Friday, November 4, 2017
- Do not overestimate the numbers in your group. In an effort to allow as many youth as possible from our diocese to attend, please be accurate with your request.
- Please note that a request for tickets does not guarantee entrance.
- Once all requests are processed we will be given notification of our ticket allotment no later than December 1.
- In the event that you do not receive tickets, your name will be added to the waiting list.
- If we do not receive your request by November 4, 2017, your request will not be sent to the Archdiocese of Washington, but will be added to the waiting list in the case that cancellations within other groups occur.
