This year, we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the life-changing document "Humanae Vitae" that reinforced the dignity of the human person from the moment of conception to natural death... specifically at the first moment of conception in regards to the dignity of marital love!

Join Gen Life at several events in Center City Philadelphia to take a look at this issue.

Friday, July 25 will include a talk by world-renowned professor Peter Kreeft! 

Adoramus Te: Youth Event with Christ
Malvern Retreat House, Sunday, August 3

Back to Top

Due to scheduling problems, Generation Life will be unable to
hold our Lock-In as previously announced.  

In place of that event, we will now be present at the Adoramus Te Event at Malvern Retreat Center on Sunday, August 3.  This event will give teens from across the nation, specifically those from the East Coast, the opportunity to come together for one day of faith, prayer, fun and inspiration together with our Lord in the Most Blessed Sacrament.  Please plan to join Generation Life as a volunteer or attend the event with your pro-life club, youth group or friends!

Cardinal Rigali will celebrate Mass for the event!

To register, please download and complete this form.


Adoramus is sponsored by Malvern Retreat Center and OYYA.  We are in need of sponsors to help make this day a success!  Please find more info here.  Thank you!

Generation Life is in need of 35-50 student and young adult volunteers to assist with the day: tasks from hosptality to parking to evalgelization.  Your help is needed! Please contact Mary at 215-885-4668 to register to volunteer for the day.
