CFC GIFT OF LIFE

Couples for Christ has been and staunchly remains Pro-God, Pro-Family, Pro-Poor and Pro-Life. A strong pro-life stance is very much in line with CFC’s way of life as well as its work for total human liberation. In response to the encyclical letter of Pope John Paul II, The Gospel of Life, CFC established Gift of Life as a ministry in order to raise consciousness among its members, as well as others, on the sacredness of life as a basic value rooted in the dignity of man. This is due to the imminent defeat of the “culture of life” by the “culture of death” as a consequence of the worldwide legalization of abortion, capital punishment and euthanasia as well as other anti-life practices. CFC’s pro-life stance is enveloped in its life and culture through the promotion of natural family planning, fertility awareness and human sexuality, chastity education, advocacy and lobbying for pro-life legislation, among others.
