MARCH OF REMEMBRANCE TX
Over 75 years after WWII, Holocaust survivors’ voices are fading — but their lessons remain vital. The March of Remembrance, part of the global March of Life movement, gathers people across 20 nations and 400+ cities to honor victims, confront denial, and commit to a future free from hatred.

On Sunday, the Holocaust Remembrance Association (HRA18) successfully hosted the March of Remembrance Houston 2025, an inspiring event bringing together community leaders, dignitaries, and participants to honor Holocaust survivors, confront antisemitism, and promote a message of remembrance and reconciliation. While guests and attendees remained dry under event tents during ceremonies in spite of the rainy forecast, many participants and volunteers braved the rain during setup, the walk, and tear-down, demonstrating their dedication and resilience.
Stand with us. Serve with purpose. Help bring the message of remembrance to life. Your help makes a real impact.
The March of Life (also known as Marsch des Lebens in Germany and March of Remembrance in the United States) is an initiative by Jobst and Charlotte Bittner and TOS Ministries from Tübingen, Germany. Together with descendants of German Wehrmacht soldiers, members of the SS and police force, they have organized memorial and reconciliation marches at sites of the Holocaust all over Europe and worldwide.
As an individual, business, or organization, you can be a part of this incredible event that honors the victims of the Holocaust. Learn how you can sponsor or donate to this great cause.

The vision for a March of Remembrance in Houston came. In just six weeks through the efforts of volunteers from multiple churches and ministries, the first March of Remembrance Houston was held in the community of Kingwood, Texas. The march was hosted by seven churches along Woodland Hills Dr beginning with a opening ceremony at Kingwood United Methodist Church and ending with a memorial service at St. Martha’s Catholic Church. Besides the seven host churches, members of churches throughout Kingwood and across the city of Houston came to show their support and participate. Between the two ceremonies and the march, close to 1,000 people participated in the day.
