Students in America and around the world will celebrate Valentine’s Day by helping educate their peers on the value of sexual purity. They will distribute fliers and wear T-shirts and wristbands leading up to the Fifth Annual Day of Purity.
Rena Lindevaldsen, coordinator of the Day of Purity, told LifeNews.com that students who embrace the abstinence lifestyle are countering the Hollywood culture with its risqué television shows, vulgar jokes, tasteless commercials and graphic movies.
They also are counteracting the pressure from peers and society that they face on a daily basis.
“Students are sending a message to their friends, parents, churches, communities, legislators and the media that it’s time for a positive change in the culture,” Lindevaldsen said.
