To our dear Senators who Voted NO TO RH BILL,

GREETINGS!

We are men and women of Catholic Philippines – a movement now organized to rally Filipino Catholics from all over the country, from all sectors of society and from all walks of life to unite for the Philippines and the Catholic faith. . We aim to “reclaim the Philippines as a truly Catholic nation” and to realize a solid Catholic vote and voice.

Please allow us to express through this letter, our most profound appreciation as well as our admiration for your most admirable and valiant stand against the RH bill to the very end. Armed with rich character, blessed wisdom, and inspired courage, bravely faced the overwhelming challenge – never giving up, never giving in. Despite the passage of the law, in the eyes of God and your fellow believers, you are truly victorious and honorable. We believe that this momentary set back has a purpose that the Almighty is bound to reveal in due time. With this, you have given us renewed hope that we still have leaders in the country whom we can trust and rely on to defend human life, human dignity, truth, justice and the integrity of the family, all treasured in our culture and faith.

Again, we thank you from the depths of our hearts for showing us and the whole nation and the world that not only what a true Filipino is but above all what a true son or daughter of God ought to be. We fervently ask you to continue the fight with even more fervor as we assure you that you will never be alone. There are millions of us praying and willing to work and fight shoulder to shoulder with you. We honor you and we owe you a great debt of gratitude and joining you in this continuing struggle will be the least that we can do to repay you.

MABUHAY AT PAGPALAIN NAWA KAYO NG MAYKAPAL!

In Christ,

Letter to the Incredible 79 Members of the House of Representative

Posted by cactusflower on Monday, March 11, 2013 · Leave a Comment

To our dear 79 Congressmen & Congresswomen who Voted NO TO RH BILL,

“It is not titles that honor men, but men that honor titles.”

When the House of Representatives voted on the 3rd and final reading of the RH Bill, there were 79, out of the 104 who had originally voted against the bill on second reading, who were left standing. There they stood for the truth, for principles and values foreign to others, despite all the pressures. Men and women of character, wisdom, and courage in a moral and political environment gone hostile to all the virtues. The epitome of the dreams and aspirations of our countrymen, the embodiment of vigilance against despotism and oppression, the paragons of courage and patriotism.

You were among the 79. You, along with 78 others, gave more than due honor not only to your title as our people’s representative but above all to our Christian and patriotic heritage. You showed our country and the world that despite all the seemingly insurmountable problems we face, there is still hope for the future after all. By your unwavering stand against the RH bill, you showed our people that we still have men and women in our midst who can make this country what it deserves to be—–leaders who will do everything to defend human life and human dignity, truth and justice, no matter the cost; who will put service and the common good above self or all other interests; who will not bow to any form of dictatorship or imperialism.

We come from different groups, different backgrounds, and different places. But we are all Filipinos, and we thank you from the depths of our hearts for showing the whole country and the world not only what a true Filipino is but above all what a true son or daughter of God is. In the darkest moment of our most recent history you shone like stars, soared like eagles and roared like lions, courageous and indomitable in the face of evil. The nation owes you a debt of gratitude which it shall be our honor and pride to try to repay in every way we can.

With all our love and prayers.

Very sincerely yours
