FESTIVE RALLY FOR LIFE

Pro-Life supporters were gathered along Padre Faura St., in front of the Supreme Court yesterday, July 9, 2013, to show their collective support for the petitions filed against the RH Bill. Dubbed as BUHAY MAHALIN... RH SUPILIN... FESTIVE RALLY FOR LIFE!

Led by Filipinos for Life, the festive rally was peaceful, full of love and concern to all human life being. Also present were priest, nuns, seminarians, members of Soldiers Of Christ, Pro-Life Philippines Foundation, Inc., CFCFFL, students from St. Paul University Manila, San Sebastian College Recoletos De Cavite, Siena College, UST, Don Bosco and other pro-lifers.

The faithful pray for the Justices, for them to be enlightened, that they see RH law as immoral and against the constitution.  Prayers were said for the Holy Spirit to empower the lawyer-presenters, who will argue against the RH law or the Republic Act (RA) 10354 before the Supreme Court.
