St. Francis Parish Respect Life Ministry

Youth for Life

August 3-5, 2012, the Virginia Society for Human Life sponsored the first-ever teen prolife camp in Virginia. The camp, held at the Augusta Camp and Conference Center, hosted 60 high school students for three days of dynamic talks and thought-provoking activities. The participation in Camp Joshua of nineteen young people from St. Francis Parish led to the formation of a group called Youth for Life, which encourages prolife activities among youth. One such event was the 2013 March for Life (see photos below), in which nineteen members took part.
