When you need to divorce
First think of your kids
Think of their future
And how you'll affect it.
Don't mistake love for part-time lust
You need to think it over
So you'll make a long time love.
Divorce, Divorce, Divorce is a sin
A sin we should not commit
We should set ourselves straight
Divorce, Divorce, Divorce will make you plead
Divorce will make you regret all you unrighteous deeds.

The Voice That Said 'Chaste' (by Kenny Baptiste)
Was in this Party
Beautiful eyes looking at me
Lovely figure the number eight
Mind was uneasy heart was at race
All I was thinking was to have sex in a comfortable place
There was something I remembered, a strange word called 'chaste'
But my mind was not pure, it was not clean
All I could think is lust with this beautiful woman looking at me
All my friend(s) said that's a sexy body that's all me
But a voice said 'chaste!'
Pure at conscience, pure at taste
The voice said, son do not break the commandments I've put in place
You are my child, do the right thing
It should be forever lasting, not a one night swing.
How Divorce Affects the Family (by Group 4)
They got married quite soon
After having a great afternoon
For they did not know
There was a child to enter the show.
A fractured union
Their love, it seems, was an illusion
For they had a gruesome divorce
And ended up on Murry during the course.
All through this bad incident
It was not a coincidence
That this broken family
Ended quite unhappily.
16.5
He wants to love
Does he have to lust?
He wants her heart
Also her other parts.
He wants to care
Does his tongue have to be in her ear?
She wants his love
He wants her behind.
The world uses screens for pleasure
He loves it too
She wants a gentleman
He wants her nude.
So he hiding
Yo know what he watching
Stuff with woman
Oh no, another one
Untitled
I will wait until the vow is made
before I let my chastity (virginity) fade
I save myself for the right girl
The one who will wait for me
It may take a while for the time to come
but that is the decision I chose for me
I dream of that day we will be united
We will both enjoy the reward
for which we fighted
This person is a challenge
for whom I'll pay the cost
Praying that she'll live only for me
before she lets herself be lost
I consider this ambition
an unclosed seal
Whoever this promise is made for
Thank you for waiting for me to kneel

Did you know that Mother Theresa of Calcutta recently became a saint?
She successfully taught the same Billings Ovulation Method that we taught you in the slums of India! Here are some cool things she said:
"The fruit of prayer is the deepening of faith
The fruit of faith is love
The fruit of love is service
The fruit of servce is peace"
"A family that prays together, stays together"
"Prayer creates a pure heart"
"The fruit of prayer is a clean heart and a clean heart can see God"
"The greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion"
"Contraception and abortion destroys love"
"It is not how much we do, but how much love we put into what we do"

The Voice That Said "Be Chaste"
Was in this Party
Beautiful eyes looking at me
Lovely figure, the number eight

All I was thinking was to have sex in a comfortable place
There was something I remembered, a strange word called "chaste"

"It should be forever-lasting, not a one-night swing"
And another contribution on the struggle between "Love and Lust" -
He wants to love
Does he have to lust?
He wants her heart
Also her other parts
He wants to care
Does his tongue have to be in her ear?
She wants his love
He wants her behind
The world uses screens for pleasure

Questions and Answers

Q: Why is it a constant issue, the idea of contraception? Isn’t it the woman’s choice to exercise agency over her body?
A: A woman’s body is beautiful the way it was created by God. Women were made to love and for love, as were men. A woman’s fertility is a precious gift given to her by God. The Billings Ovulation Method® was developed to help women observe for changes in her reproductive health. A woman can identify her unique patterns of fertility and infertility using this Method. If a woman knew all four phases of her cycle, she would be able to detect abnormalities faster and see a doctor in time, before any illness of the reproductive system goes really badly for her. Additionally couples can plan when they would like to conceive or postpone having a child. Now if that is not “the woman’s choice to exercise agency over her body” then I don’t know what is. In the Natural Law, the purposes of sex are both for bonding, but at the same time it is also for procreation. Women have the “choice to exercise agency over her body” and that choice really should be to either engage in sexual intercourse and possibly end up pregnant or not. Why? Because sex by its very nature is procreative.
Q: Isn’t Billings natural contraception?
A: To contra-cept is to go against (contra) the creation of new life (conception). Contraception is putting a barrier between the bonding aspect and the baby-making aspect of sex, in an attempt to exclude the baby-making aspect during the act of sexual intercourse. God never intended this for us. So many years of experience with contracepting have left women to feel used by men (men objectifying women), have led to infidelity, divorces, not to mention the host of side-effects some women have to put up with if they insist their fertility is like a disease that needs to be gotten rid of. Instead of all this, with the Billings Ovulation Method®, couples can respect God’s order for sex and fertility. If the couple should not have children, due to some serious reason like health problems (mental or physical) or other serious reasons, or if the couple has just reasons, such as spacing their children by 2 years or more so that they can cope with raising a family well, then the Billings Ovulation Method® of Natural Fertility Regulation can come to the rescue. Couples simply allow the fertile time to pass before resuming sexual intercourse – this is not contracepting. This is using the God-given information about fertile and infertile times (provided by the woman’s body) and using this to go along with God’s plan for that family. We encourage couples who use this Method to ask for God’s guidance in their family planning decisions. God wants us to be generous, yet He wants us to be responsible with the ability to procreate.
Q: What diseases can you get from kissing and touching?
A: The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is spread via skin-to-skin contact. From mid-thigh to mid-waist this virus may exist on the skin and can be transmitted by skin-to-skin contact via hand to genital or any skin-to-skin contact. Think about what happens during Carnival here…I wonder if this is linked to the high rates of HPV in this country? Deep kissing can transmit HIV, Herpes and Hepatitis B, if a person has any of these diseases and has any open cuts or sores in the mouth, they may be spread this way. Kissing and touching may be seen as simple ways to explore the other’s body, but sexual arousal belongs in Marriage. Trying out these things is like starting a little fire, but what you don’t know is that place where kerosene is that would not allow that fire to stop (when it ends up with sex) – try not to arouse each other before Marriage.

Thanks ladies for all your answers to our questions! Here is one of the group contributions:
Why does sex belong in marriage?
Sex belongs in marriage because it solidifies your love with a ring.
What is the difference between Love and Lust?
Love is trusting and accepting someone for who they are.
Lust is using someone to satisfy your wants.
Love can wait to give.
Lust can't wait to get.
What does Jesus' death on a cross mean to you and what you are worth?
You are worth something and you should not give yourself up for temporary pleasure. Today, we use the term 'love' loosely. God demonstrated His love for us by sending His Son to die for us. How can we compare the way we love to God's love - I asked Jesus how much He loved me "This much" he said and then He opened up His arms and died on the cross.

Thanks very much to the ladies at Corpus Christi College who had many creative pieces to share. Here is one of them on Pornography-
A night I was watching porn
with a side of butter popcorn
De scenes made my eyes open big
My mind grew to d size of a pig
I did not know what to think
See this lady in a red suit
I ain't go lie she look real cute
But she was selling her body for one hungry hundred dollar
I would feel so ashame if I was her mother
Diz Rasta man sitting there with a big smile on his face
B'cuz he know exactly what was going to take place
As he pulled the lady closer, he watched her like he did not luv her
The sight of that turned me off, my little night of pleasure was distort
How could diz feel so wrong, my love for porn was lost
Before I used to watch it like ah boss
Something struck me saying watching porn is wrong my sister
All d porn you watch you will never get a Mister
If you continue all your friends will diss yuh
So go tell the world porn is wrong
And when yuh done
Finish eat yuh popcorn

We wish to thank the students of Matelot Community College who gave the following contributions on Chastity:
On how to date-
Be A Good Date
Carry her to watch a show
Do not be taking a dose
Buy the girl a pink, nice rose
And don't be ready to take off her clothes.
Remember she's your date
So you will have to wait
Don't stay out too late
If her father catches you, you will meet your fate
That is why you have to be a good date.
On Divorce-
D- damages the family
I- individuals separate
V- violence can be a cause
O- offense to children
