Pro-Life Workshop to Fight Growing 'Culture of Death'

Mangochi

Pro-Life Malawi will hold a workshop at Venite Cottage in Mangochi Diocese, May 24 to 27.

"The aim of the training is to fight against the culture of death that is promoted by both our Ministry of Health and non-governmental organizations," the director of Pro-Life Malawi, Harris Kachaso MJ, told CISA yesterday.

Kachaso said the rate of aborted children had increased in Malawi, a southern African nation of 12.6 million people. "We aim also at fighting against promotion of sex education in schools where parents are not consulted on the curriculum."

Mr Kachaso said the church was concerned about increased condom use in the country. Condoms were even being given out to school children as presents during competitions sponsored by certain NGOs, he said.

"We condemn the promotion of contraceptives for women and young girls, abortion, condom promotion on radio and homosexuality in our prisons here in Malawi," he said.
