The National Men's March to Abolish Abortion and Rally for Personhood

What inspired you to start this business?

The National Men’s March to Abolish Abortion and Rally for Personhood flows forth from the Friday edition of The Simple Truth. The show is hosted by Jim Havens and airs Monday-Friday on The Station of the Cross Catholic Media Network, including the popular iCatholicRadio app. The Friday show, Friday with Father, is co-hosted by Fr. Stephen Imbarrato, and it was out of on- air discussions between Jim and Fr. Imbarrato that The Men’s March was sparked in 2021. Friday with Father on The Simple Truth continues to grow as a must listen every Friday for pro- lifers as it truly provides cutting edge pro-life commentary that you are not going to hear anywhere else and keeps the focus where it needs to be: the urgent need to abolish abortion now and pushing forward toward that goal.

How does your faith shape your work?

Abortion is not merely a “women’s issue,” but rather men have a grave responsibility to stand up and lead this movement to abolish the murder of our children and the exploitation of our sisters for profit. The march is a prayerful, public witness and concludes with the Rally for Personhood that has developed to include women and daughters as an opportunity for entire families to stand up publicly together and provide a witness to the world of the equal dignity and complementarity of men and woman, as well as the beauty and goodness of marriage, fatherhood, motherhood, and family life.

What's one thing you'd like customers to know?

The national event takes place multiple times each year in various U.S. cities and always begins with men gathering outside of an abortion killing center in prayer and raising up our touchstone of the four R’s: Face REALITY, Take RESPONSIBILITY, REPENT of what we have done and what we have not done, and make a new RESOLVE to do more and better, by God’s grace, than what we have done before. Men are encouraged to gather and march with their sons as an opportunity to train them up in virtue and authentic manhood. “What I’ve seen these organizers carry out in the past was well planned and near miraculous... And that example to young men? ‘As iron sharpens iron, so one man must sharpen another’ (Proverbs 27:17).” -Thomas W., Hollis, NH “I had no idea what I was signing up for when I went to the first Men’s March in DC. I was humbled, enlightened and motivated to do more for the preborn. Over the course of three marches I have met like-minded men with whom I still stay in touch. Men who support each other in standing up for the preborn and for being authentic Catholic Men. I have been blessed. beyond measure having taken part in The Men’s March.” -Paul D., Rochester, NY "Behind every abortion is a man. I am one of these men and after years of suppressing the decision or denial altogether I found healing and peace by participating in the Men’s Marches. I encourage all men affected by abortion to stand up and join the March!” -Frank C., Helotes, TX
