Ville Platte Catholics manifested their commitment to a pro-life culture through their annual March for Life from Our Lady Queen of All Saints Church, down Main Street, to Sacred Heart Church.
At Sacred Heart Church, Dr. Kathy Allen, the director for Louisiana Black Advocates for Life, gave a moving and inspirational testimony. She encouraged people not only to be against abortion, but to cultivate a pro-life mentality that informs all aspects of our daily lives. OLQAS Church would like to thank Dr. Allen for her strong witness to life.

OLQAS would also like to thank Stephanie Andrus, pro-life coordinator, for spearheading this walk every year.
