February is Pro-Life month, dedicated to the preservation and respect for human life, and the sanctity of marriage and the Filipino family.

Various activities are set to celebrate Pro-Life Month starting February 7, 2016 focusing on its theme, “Engaging the Catholic Faithful in the Promotion of Life and the Defense of the Family.”

Pro-Life Philippines have lined up activities in Manila including a Candy Giving Project with Filipinos For Life and all those interested to join as a way of promoting the better values in celebrating Valentines Day on Feb. 14, a time when contraception advocates give away free condoms to promote sex but not love.

In their website, they wrote, “On the contrary, what we young people want to promote is Real Love- the kind that is patient, kind, gentle and everything else written about in in 1 Corinthians 13!”

There will be series of talks offered to various schools and parishes to discuss current issues on life and family and its implications on their personal as well as social and spiritual development.

“This is a great opportunity for your constituency to discover new perspectives on inculcating the pro-life advocacy at the heart of Christian Teachings,” Pro-Life added.

Speakers from Pro-Life Philippines, Filipinos for Life, Youth for Life and Educhild have prepared the following talks with their brief description:

1. #satamangpanahon Friendships. Crushes. First Love.
   Explaining and exploring the depths of Christian Courtship to the youth, with emphasis on chastity.
   Speakers: Prolife youth leaders from the Filipinos for Life
2. Handa ka na ba sa #forever?
   A talk for couples preparing for marriage, and for single young people, that delves into the topic of marriage and other related topics, like finances, in-laws, where to live, who holds the remote control, and yes, even about sex.
   Speakers: Pro-Life couple from Educhild
3. Usapang Lalaki Guys.
   Ever had questions you were too shy to ask your parents, or even your kuya? This forum is for you. We will talk about girls, and how to talk to them, and how to treat them right; the qualities of a proper gentleman and how to be one, and pornography and why it ruins your chance to get the right girl.
   Speaker: AJ Perez and members of Youth for Life
