About 2,500 walked, prayed and sang at the event Saturday at Waterfront Park in San Diego
Participants head out on the 13th annual San Diego Walk for Life along the Embarcadero in San Diego Saturday, led by Cardinal Robert W. McElroy of the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego. Ahead of his permanent move to Washington, D.C., San Diego’s first-ever cardinal wanted thousands of people who attended Saturday’s 13th annual Walk for Life to remember one thing: honor human life.
Among the attendees was Adelina Gonzalez of Imperial Valley. Feeling lonely and scared, she had an abortion at the age of 23 but immediately regretted it, she said to the crowd following the walk. In 2018, more than 40 years after her abortion, she said she visited Rachel’s Hope, a post-abortion retreat center in San Diego.
Cardinal Robert W. McElroy speaks with participants as he leads the 13th annual San Diego Walk for Life. “I’m here to stand up for women,” said Latasa. “It’s ridiculous we still have to be here to fight for our rights — for control over our own bodies and to love who we love.”
