Extra! Extra! Read all about it...

No news, actually. Just a wee announcement.

Some exciting events are lined up for the next couple of weeks as it is Pro-Life Month! What I'm personally looking forward to very much is the Feb 15 series -- first there's the dialogue between the American and Canadian pro-life guests, and the pro-life Congressmen, plus Family and Life leaders. The foreign guests -- four women who are all post-abortive -- have gone through a lot in their lives until they found healing, and are now in the counseling ministry and advocacy work. They represent groups such as Operation Outcry, Living the Redeemed Life Ministries, and Canada Silent No More.

After the hour-long dialogue comes a prayer rally, then the Human Chain for Life, Decency & Morality -- people standing one meter apart, holding up placards bearing various pro-life messages. Oh, this will be along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City, and since the Human Chain will be there from 4-6pm, towards the end it'll be twilight already and participants will be holding candles -- making for some great photo-shooting opportunities. Any shutterbugs out there who shoot for the sheer fun of it? Hobbyists building their portfolio are welcome to get in touch with me as I am thinking of getting one or two to do the shooting. It's basically for documentation but of course great shots always warrant seeing print so I plan to submit some to the press later on.

The ladies from abroad would be wonderful subjects for the shoots, too, so there'll be a day to photograph them as well.

Anyway, I hope to hear from someone who's interested in this even though all I can offer in return are food and drink, and the byline to go with the photos if they get published in the papers. Plus, the experience of covering these events. Drop me a line at sunnyday1898@yahoo.com or leave a comment here!

More about other activities later...
