Prince of Peace CYO Stands for Life!
On Saturday, January 10, Prince of Peace CYO hopped on a bus with the St. Mary’s youth group and some of the Prince of Peace Knights of Columbus, headed down to Columbia and marched for life! It was a cold day, but that didn’t stop the group from proudly making a stand and defending life. Following the March that ended at the State House, the youth from the Diocese joined together to see Jackie Francois give an inspiring talk on being pro-life in this generation.
