Dear March attendees,

On behalf of the March for Life and the Arizona Life Coalition, THANK YOU for joining us Thursday for the 2023 Arizona March for Life at the capitol building in Phoenix, Arizona! Together with thousands of other Arizonans, we stood for our state’s most vulnerable citizens—the unborn—for their right to life, and for their mothers and families to be supported and protected.

By participating in the Arizona March for Life, you made your voice heard, inspired the next generation with your conviction, and provided a witness to your neighbors (and elected officials), that every human life has inherent human dignity.

If you have not already, please contact your Arizona state legislator today, calling for protections for babies that survive a failed abortion at https://stndrw.cc/marchaction

A Note from our Youth Minister:

"Although I'm originally from SoCal, specifically the Diocese of Orange, I can personally attest to the formative impression it left on me as our youth minister while I was in high school made sure that we had the opportunity to attend the Steubenville West in Tuscon, Arizona every year. This conference was so impactful that when my grandfather saw what it did for me and my brother's individual faiths, he made sure to send my cousins the following year...

(Steubenville, 2011, our 11th Grade Youth Minister with cousins.)

...I know that I bonded with many of my Parish peers, and found a place where as a high schooler, I could celebrate my faith without any hesitation. It was there that I first received the message of my value as a young woman, truly encountered Christ in the Eucharist, and also the first time I ever felt I could talk with a priest as our Parochial Vicar also attended with us. This is also an opportunity for your young person to have their own unique encounter with the Lord in our faith during this experience." - Kristen Hew

Block off July 14th-16th, 2023 for your teen, and visit our website through the button below to find out how to register your young person. Check out the video to see more about what Steubenville has to offer. We are also currently accepting donations of any amount as pictured below to help provide scholarships for families who desire to send their teen but may not have the means.
