"Africa: Life Under Siege" Premieres This Week!

By Michelle Laque Johnson EWTN

In many African nations, abortion and same-sex marriage are such foreign concepts that they do not even have words for them. Unfortunately, this makes them a huge target for the Culture of Death, which is why they desperately need the support of pro-life forces from around the world! Find out more when EWTN airs an original documentary, "Africa: Life Under Siege." (Airs 3:30 a.m. ET, Tuesday, Oct. 21 and 11 p.m. ET, Saturday, Oct. 25.) This program documents the enormous pressure African countries are facing to adopt secular, mainly Western, views of human life, sexuality, marriage, motherhood and family. You'll hear from bishops, priests, pro-life leaders, and concerned individuals from Africa, Europe and America who came together in June 2014 to discuss the problem at the International Pro-Life Conference in Abuja, Nigeria. In addition to discussions about the serious issues which are drastically influencing African culture, you'll hear from a bevy of international speakers including Marguerite Peeters, director of the Brussels-based Institute for Intercultural Dialogue; U.S. Congressman Chris Smith; and renowned British Pro-Life Leader John Smeaton. continue reading at http://www.ewtn.com
