Ave Maria! On August 11th Eduardo Verastegui, the lead actor in the award winning pro-life movie Bella, came to the Eastern Connecticut University campus in Willimantic and gave a press conference followed by a talk in front of a packed auditorium. The event was organized by the Sisters of Charity in Baltic, Ct. We captured the press conference and are presenting it in three parts. Part One: Eduardo talks about his upcoming movies including one on St Peter with a $160 million budget. Then he discusses his company Metanoia Films and the difficult road of being an independent film producer. He mentions his recently completed world tour for the promotion of the movie Bella. And, finally, about his new non-profit organization Mantle of Guadalupe (Espanol) with which he goes on world missions to give help to the pour and is helping to build a hospital for pregnant mothers in a downtown LA Latino barrio. Ave Maria! |
Ave Maria! In Part 2 of 3 Eduardo answers questions about how he had to start his own film company in order to avoid playing degrading, immoral roles and the difficulties and obstacles on the road to success. He relates his involvement in promoting adoption, then how much actors in Hollywood struggle with immorality but how it is worth the struggle, and finally his status as a role model. Ave Maria! |
Ave Maria! In this third and last part Eduardo discusses how the movie Bella effected so many people, the audience, the actors, the film crew and also many pregnant mothers who changed there minds about aborting their babies. He also covers his views on the need for morality in art, on politics and his hopes to use his films to unite people and even to influence Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, whom he is planning on meeting. God Bless you Eduardo! Ave Maria! |

Listen to Peter Wolfgang of the Family Institute of CT give his synopsis of today’s events.

Ave Maria! Our Roving Reporter caught up with the amazingly successful Pro-Life Activist, Lila Rose, at the Liaison Hotel in Downtown DC last week. In fact, Lila is so successful as a Pro-Life activist she has gained national media coverage, some of her videos exposing malpractices by Planned Parenthood have been withdrawn from YouTube, and her picture is even being displayed in some Planned Parenthood facilities warning staff about her undercover activities – all this and she is only 20 years old – wow! And to top all this off – she is currently part of an RCIA program and will soon be received into the Holy Catholic Church. Ave Maria! |

Ave Maria!

For status of the Uniform Anatomical Gift Act Ave Maria! |
Ave Maria! Dare, Defy, Do! – The Family Institute of CT’s motto for the new youth wing. Dare to make a stand; Defy low cultural expectations; Do the hard stuff! Chelsea Rankin throws out this challenge to youth during her speech at the Pro-Family Rally at the CT State House, held on Thursday April 3rd, 2008, with the unveiling of the new youth wing of the Family Institute of CT – iFIC Chelsea is an extraordinary young lady and you’ll definitely be hearing more of her in the future – and remember, you saw her first on AirMaria.com Ave Maria! |
Ave Maria! Fra Roderic recently caught up with Joe Scheidler in Chicago, the National Director of the Pro-Life Action League. In this interview, Joe speaks about his heroic fight against Planned Parenthood and the RICO laws. Ave Maria! |
Ave Maria! Back in June at the Catholic Family Conference in Anaheim, CA we ran into Eva Muntean from Ignatius Press and she gave us an interview about the Walk for Life West Coast of which she is Co-chair. This is the San Francisco version of the Washington, DC March for Life, but is more interesting because San Francisco is a much more left-wing town and so the pro-abort counter protesters are far more numerous, vociferous and . . . obscene than in DC. Despite all this, the Pro-lifers keep their dignified calm and the numbers keep growing into the tens of thousands. In this video we included many clips from past Walks for Life. See if you can tell the difference between the pro-life protesters and the pro-abortion counter protesters along the side. (Even after we cut out all their obscene gestures it is still easy to tell.) The 2008 DC March for Life will be on Tuesday, Jan 22, the San Francisco Walk for Life was held just last Saturday, Jan 19. Ave Maria! |
