Our fifteen year-old daughter, Berit, attended the March for Life 2016 in DC and our heart is full with all the ways God was working through the march and infamous Turnpike Mass! Berit showed us through her two years of attending her Pro-Life Club meetings, her commitment to fundraising for the trip, the pink and blue cupcakes she and her friends made to increase Pro-Life awareness at Holy Family High School, that this most definitely is her cause. What a beautiful realization for us to see that God has been calling her to serve Him in this way and we, her parents, had absolutely nothing to do with it!

While Berit was in Washington we noticed every text,Tweet and Facebook post had the hashtag #FORTHEBABIES. We were floored when we received a video of our shy Berit, screaming a follow-back chant during the March with hundreds of people an-swering her "I BELIEVE " with "I BELIEVE WE ARE PRO-LIFE". We were so grateful that God was working on Berit in ways we never expected.

The nights spent on the Pennsylvania Turnpike were stressful but we knew God was holding all those kids in his loving arms and we didn't have to worry. We will never forget her excitement as she relayed the story as it was unfolding of building an altar along the Turnpike so they could celebrate Mass. The God moments were not lost on her. She explained that God must've wanted that altar in a certain spot so the Mass-goers could stand on the hillside because they tried packing snow in many different areas along the road and failed. When they reached the right spot the snow packed perfectly for them! They asked a couple of priests off of other buses who each had just a few hosts, and they celebrated Mass right there along the roadside. They had just enough hosts for the hundreds of stranded pilgrims from across the country who at-tended. When the group returned home she told one of the news reporters that she was happy they were stranded so the Turnpike Mass could happen – otherwise the March For Life news story would have been completely lost because of the "Snowmageddon".
