Ladies and gentlemen,
On March 25 we celebrated the Day of the Feast of Life – a time of peculiar reflection on the value of all human being.
For us, it is simply a unique holiday, reminiscent and redefined at the core of our mission: the request to defend life at all phase and reconstruct dignity and subjectivity to those who present receive it from abortion organisations, and even governments of states.
On this occasion, a conference “Yes to Life – Power of Motherhood” was held in the Polish Sejm, an chance to meet the environments and communities active in the defence of life. Representatives of the Centre of Life and household besides participated in this event. We have met people for whom caring about life, matrimony and household is not only a declaration, but besides a regular commitment.
But this beautiful and upbuilding event took place in circumstances that make us think whether life truly is sacred to us Poles.
Only the last fewer days have brought specified messages:
- Gizela Jagielska, the 1 who injected poison into the heart of a nine-month-old kid in the womb, received the “Superheroes” award awarded by “High Aliens”.
- the latest CSO data show a dramatic decrease in birth rates – in 2025 in Poland, 5.4% little children were born than in 2024, and since 2017, the birth rate has fallen by over 40%;
- The NSA orders the transcription of the matrimony acts of single-sex couples concluded abroad, de facto forcing Poland to legalize "marriage" of same-sex people.
These are signals we can't ignore.
Life is increasingly no longer seen as unconditional value, and matrimony and household – something worth fighting for in their lives.
We must remind again that the household is the foundation of society, that matrimony is simply a space of permanent love and responsibility, and children are a gift – not a burden. That is why present we request our common commitment so much that these values will sound powerfully and clearly in society.
One of the most crucial tools of change is the Marches for Life and household – a joyful household holiday, an chance to give a witness and a strong pro-life voice directed to the ruling.
And this year this voice will be even stronger, due to the fact that the scale of our actions has widened considerably.
We're on the verge of another march season.
Every March for Life and household is simply a wonderful celebration of families, full of joy, children's smiles and an upbuilding message. But it is besides a very crucial evidence that there are inactive people in Poland who want to live differently than the mainstream, who believe in marriage, household and value of all life.
This year's first march starts shortly after Easter. On April 19th there will be a National March of Life in Warsaw (a small bit more about it below) and a March for Life in Szczecin, on May 10th The March for Life and household will pass in Wrocław, and a week later in Brańsk, Lublin and Żara.
What we especially enjoy is the clear improvement of the march movement. They join fresh towns – like the mentioned Brańsk, where the initiative was born after our gathering with local communities and bishop Drohichinsky.
Throughout Poland we see a immense mobilization today. Parishes, communities, families – everyone is active in preparations. Increasingly, the Marches are accompanied by festivals and events integrating local communities.
It's a sign of hope. A sign that despite the challenges of everyday life, we will never quit on our families.
As in erstwhile years, the march period opens The National March of Life, which will pass through the streets of Warsaw on 19 April. This year's slogan: "Faith and fidelity 966–2026" reminds us that the values on which Poland was built are not the past, but the way for the future.
Going with this message, we want to emphasise that past is not only happening in battlefields or behind the scenes of large politics. It happens in our homes. We compose this communicative together, building our smallest communities, marriages and families. due to the fact that parenting is simply a vocation that changes past – the past of parents, children and the past of the full nation.
Therefore, present I invitation you to participate in this event. On April 19, we must be together to witness with power life, marriage, and family.
If you cannot scope the capital on that day, I warmly invitation you to participate in the local Marches for Life and Family. For more information about the Marches in your area, see March.org.
But before we go to the National March of Life, we want to invitation you to participate in the initiative, which I have already written to you in 1 of the erstwhile letters, namely “Time for Love”.
It's a peculiar proposal that will take place. 9-19 April in Warsaw – this will be a spiritual and social preparation for the National March of Life.
We want this year's March to be the culmination of something deeper: the process of meeting, reasoning and building a community of people who are close to life, matrimony and family. That's why we came up with the thought of creating a space where you can not only come and listen, but besides halt for a minute of reflection or an interesting meeting.
“Time for Love” is the spiritual “packaging” of March.
Therefore, within its framework Holy Mass will be held. offered for the intent of healing the hearts of men and women, to make lasting marriages and to accept the gift of life with joy.
In addition, This is the second time we will pray at AboTaki to appease the sins of abortion and defend unborn children.
On the another hand, it will be a time of meetings, debates and events that will inspire and strengthen: interesting lectures, formal-scientific conferences, and even speed-dating.
We want to show that The civilization of life is not an abstract idea, but a real consequence to crisesWho contact our society. “Time for Love” is besides a perfect chance to look at matrimony and household not through difficulties, but as a way to meet, lasting relationships and actual happiness.
As the Center for Life and Family, we prepare 3 unique events.
April 15th, 6:00 p.m., Stańczyka Club, 28/34 Beauty Street
The first will be our show “And that I will not leave you”. I have already mentioned this production to you respective times: in it we present stories of people who, despite the departure of 1 of the spouses, stay faithful to a matrimony oath.
After the screening, there will be a gathering and conversation with the characters of the movie and invited guests, including representatives of the Association of hard Marriages Sychar. erstwhile entries through the site apply to the event The ClubStanczyka.pl.Previous records are required through the page The ClubStanczyka.pl.
April 17, 6:00 p.m., Multikino G City Reduta, Al. Jerozolimskie 148
A fewer days later, I invitation you to the premiere of the movie by Dr. Baber Aondo-Akaa "I am free. I am pro-life”for which the Centre of Life and household is responsible.
It is an highly colorful communicative about the environments defending lives seen from 2 perspectives: the United States and Poland. And in my opinion, this movie is critically crucial to the functioning of the full pro-life movement.
Because first, it shows that in both countries:
- affect legal changes and increase the protection of unborn children;
- continue to be an highly effective average for the pro-life message and actively contribute to changing the social mentality on these issues.
In addition, the movie shows something that is 1 of the most crucial challenges for us present – how to make the thought of defending life alive, attractive and convincing to the young generation.
In the United States, the pro-life movement is undergoing a real revival thanks to young people: hundreds of young faces are seen on the marches, they are the ones that give the speech to this debate. But their activity is not an accident – it is simply a consequence of knowingly reaching young people in the language they understand, and showing them that the defence of life is not an old-fashioned view that is not acceptable to present or an work imposed from outside, but expression of freedom and responsibility.
In Poland, the situation is complicated: many young people have been kidnapped by narratives that depict life as a problem, a kid as an obstacle, a household as a restriction, and defenders of life as squatters. This communicative has penetrated very profoundly – even in youth Catholic groups there is simply a certain reluctance or opposition to engaging in pro-life activities.
The movie by Bavaria Aondo-Akaa shows that this trend can be reversed, retelling the young generation about the value of life in a moving and authentic way.
That is why we want this movie to scope a wide scope of audiences – not only from our conservative bubble, those already convinced, but besides those who are looking for answers. Then it will not only become a cultural event, but above all a tool of change.
Admission to the movie will be free of charge, but for the screening there will be records – shortly we will launch a page with a form, which I will compose to you in a peculiar email.
April 18th, 2 p.m., Stańczyk Club, 28/34 Beauty Street
The 3rd event we have the honour to organize, this time together with the Ordo Iuris Institute, is conference dedicated to the condition of the modern family "Marriage, parenting or loneliness?" – between culture, economics and demography".
We want to make a space for a sound and in-depth reflection on what is happening present with marriage, parenting and life decisions of young people, both in social, cultural or economical terms, and – unfortunately frequently overlooked in the debate – spiritual and moral.
A peculiar place in this debate will be the subject demographic crisis as a phenomenon that is crucial for the future of Poland. Together with the invited experts, among them will be: Dr Mieczysław Guzeewicz, Michał Kot is Matthew of Lakoma – we will effort not only to diagnose its causes, but besides to identify possible ways out, based on strengthening the family, rebuilding the culture of matrimony and restoring a appropriate view of the value of life. erstwhile entries through the site apply to the event The ClubStanczyka.pl.
Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, all these activities require considerable financial resources. Each of these events is simply a circumstantial cost for us, which we gotta cover so that they can take place at a level that allows people to scope out and actually affect reality.
Like all year, we prepare for marches. Promotional materials, banners and postersand gadgets for families and children – balloons, headbands or windmills. They make this unique atmosphere of the Marches, attract participants and make these events visible, joyful and family.
We want to distribute these materials already during the National March of Life, so we gotta order their preparation in the coming days. And in order to reduce costs, we want to put more effort into giving any of them to the organizers of local marches. At this point, we estimation that it will cost us more than PLN 10,000.
Further costs are related to organization of cinema premiere of the movie “I am free. I am pro-life”: area rental for 120 people, promotion of this event and logistics issues is about PLN 6 000.
All your assistance is of real importance. It is thanks to her that the pro-life message will get wider – besides to those who do not hear it yet.
| I support these actions! |
We are observing the minute erstwhile it is determined in which direction our society will go – whether the values of life and household will be rediscovered, strengthened and passed on, or gradually displaced and marginalized until they become just an outcast. Therefore, the actions we take to defend the most crucial values: life, marriage, families are so important.
Marches for Life and household are an undeniable evidence – visible, courageous, present in public space. But it's besides an effort to build the future.
This is an effort to scope the young generation – so that they can see that life, love and household are not a restriction, but a way to happiness, meaning and fulfillment. That it's worth going against the current. It is worth building, not just questioning standards and destroying authority.
I firmly believe that the pro-life events I have described to you have the power to change.
I believe that they can reverse the direction in which many young people are heading present and ignite in them the desire for another life – a fuller, more responsible, truer one.
I believe that Poland can be a place where life is protected, a respected matrimony and a strong family. It is not an alternative, but a necessity if we want to last the time of change that goes around.
That is why I am so counting on your aid in their implementation!
Greetings.
Marcin Perłowski, manager of the Center for Life and Family
