Family group launches adoption campaign in Argentina to combat abortion

.- The Christian Family Movement in Argentina has launched an “Adoption versus Abortion” campaign in order to reduce the number of abortion in the country.

Speaking to the Fides news agency, the spokesman for the CFM, Pablo Cavallero, said the initiative was started “in the wake of the current tendency to legalize abortion in the country and spread the idea that the carrying out of this crime is perfectly licit.”

Volunteers will be distributing pamphlets encouraging adoption instead of abortion, even for women who are in painful or unjust situations.

Organizers have also launched the campaign in the 31 other countries where the CFM is present.  The Movement began in Argentina in 1948 and seeks to promote marriage and the family and defend life from conception to natural death.
