March For Life 2025
Pulse Life Advocates is securing transportation and a hotel to host pro-life Iowans from around the state to the March For Life in Washington DC.
The annual rally will be held on January 24, 2025.
Even though we have been victorious on the federal level, abortion is still legal in many states. We will continue to march until all life is protected in this country.
Please join us for this important event. Our voices must be heard.
Why We March...
We march to make our voices heard. We march to support our legislators and each other. We march in support of the tiny, helpless unborn - because they were created in the image and likeness of God and their lives matter.
We march because it is the right thing to do.
The March for Life is an opportunity to proclaim the value of all human life and advocate for the protection of life in our law.
Seating is limited.
Seating is limited to the first 50 people who sign up. After we fill our bus, we will put you on a wait list.
Send in your registration right away to secure your spot.

The Annual March is a life changing experience!
“It was an experience greater than myself and I love that this trip brought me closer to Christ, Thank you!”
“Seemed like the group was engaged in the life prayers and it was very beautiful for all involved especially for students to rally around life and build a Christ centered community.”
“This is the fundamental issue- if we get LIFE right, so many other things get right because of it.”
“It was so powerful & inspiring. Being part of something bigger than myself was the ultimate experience. I enjoyed the whole trip immensely and it was wonderful meeting new people!”
“I want to become more involved with the pro-life movement. IFL has shown me a glimpse of what that could look like.”
“It was an experience greater than myself and I love that this trip brought me closer to Christ, Thank you!”

March for Life 2016 #neverforgetmarker133
Stuck on the Pennsylvania Turnpike for 24 hours. Lessons learned.
As I planned this year’s March for Life in Washington DC I was filled with a lot of mixed emotions. On the one hand, we had a record number of participants planning to attend, but on the other, the weather updates continued to put a damper on the upcoming trip. And it wasn’t just a typical winter storm, it was coined ‘snowmaggedon’ and ‘the storm of the century’.
We continued to watch the weather and forged forward with the trip. Unfortunately, we lost three schools to this forecast and decided that we would need to cut the trip short and eliminate the sight-seeing day in order to beat the storm home.
The trip to DC was largely uneventful and arrival at our hotel was smooth. As always, our trips consist of education, prayer and fun. When we arrived, Father Pat Behm celebrated Mass at the hotel for those groups interested. Some groups attended Mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, while others packed in a quick tour of the national monuments. The morning would come early as we decided to save time, and load all luggage back onto the buses before heading out to the Archdiocesan of Washington DC Youth Rally & Mass held at Verizon Center and The DC Armory.
