By Rev. Joseph Illo
Head Chaplain
January 28, 2014

After the close of classes on Friday, January 24, more than 200 Thomas Aquinas College students met up in a campus parking lot to begin their pilgrimage to San Francisco and the 10th annual Walk for Life West Coast. They prayed together, received a blessing from Head Chaplain Rev. Joseph Illo, and listened to last-minute instructions before boarding three buses and numerous cars for the voyage north.

Dozens of Thomas Aquinas College students, wearing their red Carpe Veritatem sweatshirts, can be spotted marching through the streets of San Francisco in ABC 7’s coverage of Saturday’s Walk for Life West Coast. A video of the report, which is available online at the TV station’s website, features an interview with senior Brian Murphy.
