Public celebration of the cornerstone of civilized life. This prompted the Diocese of Nezahualcoyotl, Mexico, to organize a "Walk for Life and Peace in the Family" for 19 July.
The march—made visible by the dress of the participants, who were invited to wear white—will set out at 9:00 am from the meeting point, at Glorieta del Coyote, and go to the Cathedral of Nezahualcoyotl, where a Mass will be presided over by the Bishop, Msgr. Héctor Luis Morales Sánchez, at 12:00 noon.
"We want to demonstrate publicly and peacefully—say the organizers—our support for the institution of the family solidly built on the foundation of the conjugal union of a man and a woman: the only natural way to procreation and to ensure that the right of children to have a father and a mother is respected. The family is in fact the foundation of every society that loves peace, because it is naturally able to generate within itself."
