Remembering Sr. Mary Pilar Verzosa, RGS on her 3rd Death Anniversary
Sept. 9, 2015, Pro-Life Philippines commemorates the 3rd death anniversary of our founder, Sr. Pilar Verzosa, RGS. Three years after Sr. Pilar’s death and we still feel the loss of such a great person. We still miss her dearly, as no one can ever take her place in our hearts. Sr. Pilar was loved by many because she sincerely loved life. People did not hesitate in helping her because she bannered the Pro-life advocacy everywhere she went, and did so with the energy of a hundred men. She loved life, and exuded life. She was there to seek women and…
Tagle blasts abortion on global day of prayer for creation
MANILA, Sept. 1, 2015 – Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle slammed abortion as an attack on human dignity— an important facet in respect for creation. The Manila archbishop lamented attacks on human life which, he said, mirror today’s materialistic mentality. “If you are useful anymore, you are dropped. It is not a contemplation of human dignity,” Tagle said. Strong message “Even people are measured by profitability that is why children being conceived in the womb can be aborted,” he said. Tagle made the strong anti-abortion message during a Mass on Tuesday for the first World Day of Prayer for the Care of…
FILIPINOS FOR LIFE OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON THE SCOTUS’ DECISION ON SAME SEX “MARRIAGE”
Posted on 7 July 2015 by Truthsayer We, the members of Filipinos for Life, express our dismay at the recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to legalize same-sex “marriage”. We believe that SCOTUS acted outside the bounds of its authority in redefining the meaning of an institution which has been understood, from the beginning of human civilization, as the union between a man and a woman. This lamentable decision, which has no historical, traditional, cultural, or natural foundations, is based on an irrational sentimentality and a misplaced sense of compassion that fails to consider the future of the…

Divorce and the Progressive ambition to destroy the family
Posted on May 14, 2015 10:52:00 PM The thing is: many (but definitely not all) of those advocating for divorce want the traditional family structure of biologically related father, mother, and child be rid of. And I’ve received comments related to my previous article “Divorce is just a bad idea” (08 May issue) where people implicitly declared they are not against the idea of traditional marriage being done away with. Which isn’t surprising when one remembers that “no-fault” divorce actually originated from that long-held communist objective to…
DIVORCE … Why Not?
by: Rosie Luistro Founding President (currently in the Board of Advisers) Alliance for the Family Foundation Philippines, Inc. (ALFI) May 2015 1. Divorce in the Philippines is not legal but it looks like there are more couples getting an annulment. Isn’t this enough reason to legalize divorce? The increasing numbers may be due to a greater awareness of this procedure than before. We get to know more about annulments or separations today especially if they involve movie or society personalities. The media loves to elaborate on the details…

ILOILO City, April 24, 2015—A “prenup” is one thing, but here is an agreement of the “green” kind.

Remembering 12-12-12
Today, we commemorate with a sense of hope and sustained vigilance the infamy of 12-12-12, the day when congress passed in its second reading the Reproductive Health bill. Our top leaders have always allied themselves with those who harbor inimical sentiments and interests against Holy Mother Church; therefore it was never a coincidence that these men, who possess no fear of God nor shame for their wickedness, have decided that the RH bill should pass the crucial 2nd vote on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe Herself. The victory was no means an easy one; even with the King’s…
