Commencing countdown to the National March of Life! We have a very intense, eventful “Time for Love” ahead of us – I invitation you to participate!
At first, I am in a hurry to explain to you the position of the case I was writing about just before Easter, which is the planned premiere of the movie “I am free. I am a pro-life” on pro-life marches and movements in the USA and Poland.
The event was scheduled to take place on 17 April in Warsaw's Multikina City Reduta, nevertheless it became a large question after a fewer days before Christmas we received an email in which a typical of the cinema network refused to organize a screening, explaining the necessity of maintaining apoliticalism.
Let me remind you that this happened after a multiday email exchange, erstwhile we were able to establish all the details and even pay the invoice. What's more, we've been reporting from the beginning that the movie we want to show our guests is about pro-life.
Today, I am happy to inform you that we have managed to come up with a solution that is beneficial to us and the screening will take place!
After long negotiations with the cinema representatives, we came to an agreement. First of all, thank you for your support at that time – it was highly important!
I think that in addition to the work of lawyers, media force was besides crucial in this case.
The most crucial thing, however, is that the full case is successful for us and – I hope this time it will be without surprises – I invitation you to the cinema premiere of the movie by Dr. Baber Aondo-Akaa and Michał Król entitled “I am free. I am a pro-life”!
At the same time, I remind you that the number of seats for this event is limited! It is besides essential to make a individual record, which I will compose in item about later in this letter.
And we besides have many another interesting events under the “Time for Love” initiative, the week preceding the National March of Life, which will pass through the streets of Warsaw on April 19.
“Time for Love” is simply a series of meetings, debates and prayers to be held in Warsaw from 9 to 19 April 2026, behind which many spiritual and social actors are behind. The initiative aims to prepare participants for the National March of Life and advance the civilization of life, the culture of matrimony and household values.
It is simply a time of both building a community and inspiring meetings, and deep prayer in the intention of protecting life. It is simply a unique space that allows you to go beyond simplified schemes and grow the social position of pro-life – showing that the defence of life is not only an opposition to threats, but above all a concern for man, relationships and the future of society as a whole.
Therefore, in the Time for Love plan, you will find events that encourage reflection on current social problems as well as an chance to experience spiritual or even fresh acquaintances.
To get to know the full program of this intense week, delight look at the website Time for Love.pl. I'm certain everyone will find something suitable for themselves!
Here I would like to invitation you to Warsaw for events organized or co-organised by the Centre of Life and Family. Due to local restrictions on any of them, registration is required – below you will find appropriate links.
The first is to pray for unborn children.

I remind you: we will only pray there, without speeches, passwords, etc.

In the movie we show both the stories of the return and restoration of the ties after the breakup, as well as the experience of those who remained alone, despite being faithful to the sworn oath. It is simply a communicative about the strength of the sacrament, about the love put to the test and about people who – even in the most hard moments – did not quit the fight for their relationship.

Finally, I invitation you to the National March of Life! We start on Sunday 19 April at 12:30 from Castle Square.
In fresh years, March has gathered even respective twelve participants and has been the largest pro-life manifestation in Poland and 1 of the largest demonstrations of this kind in Europe for years. This year, due to political and social change, there should be even more of us.
Because March is not only an affirmation of household values, but a strong sign of opposition. Anyone who tries to impose abortion on Poles, partnerships, pornography, sexualisation of children or sex ideology must be certain that all time this happens to us!
This year the March will not only start at Castle Square, but the Square will become the stationary centre of this event with stage, screen, marching studio, tents, stands, evangelization, music, children's playground. Before the March at 11:00 a.m. Masses will be held in both Warsaw Cathedrals.
March organizes respective twelve organizations from all over Poland, headed by the Foundation of St. Benedict, Coalition for Life and Family, CitizenGo-Poland and, of course, our Centre of Life and Family.
You're welcome!

Each of these events involves a group of people who do their occupation with heart and dedication.
However, each is besides a circumstantial financial challenge. It is the real cost that we bear, due to the fact that we want to act effectively and scope with our message where it is most needed today.
The cost of renting the hall, logistics and promotional activities, as well as preparation for the main event, the National March of Life, is for us spending respective 1000 PLN.
And each of your support is of real importance to us and helps us scope out to those who do not have the chance to hear it all day!
Therefore, I am asking you to aid me finance the “Time for Love” events as well as preparations for the National March of Life..
Ladies and gentlemen, we have an extraordinary time ahead of us.
I think that well lived, can be a real and solid preparation for us for the National March of Life – spiritual, substantive, and formational.
Moreover, it is thanks to the events of this week that the National March of Life gains depth and rank – it ceases to be a one-time event and becomes the culmination of a wider process of building community and conviction.
I believe that just specified a holistic approach – combining reflection, formation and joint action – has the top influence and can truly change the way people think and social attitudes.
Therefore, one more time I invitation you to participate in these events. I remind you: on the website Time for Love.pl You will find a full programme of the full week, a description of all initiatives and guidelines for time, location or possible records.
I'm certain each of us will find something for each other!

Greetings.
