(8/2/2020)

  • Memorial of Saint Martha (7/29/2020): "The little village of Bethany, on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives about 3km from Jerusalem, was a favourite place of rest and refuge for Jesus.  Here he knew the intimacy and friendship of his friends Martha, Mary and Lazarus. And here, in the cemetery just below the village, he raised Lazarus from the dead" (http://www.seetheholyland.net/bethany/).  Below is a 3/16/17 photo from Bethany:

    • The Pre-eminent Moral Mandate: The Right to Life (Bishop Strickland, 5/7/2020)
    • "marriage between one man and one woman, intended for life, and the family founded upon it, has been inscribed by the Divine Architect into the order of the universe.... children have a right to a mother and a father.... To live a faithful marriage is now countercultural.... The notion that we can choose our sexual identification as male or female is but one more manifestation of the rebellion that started in the garden with Adam and Eve when they turned away from God’s loving plan.... We are living in a new missionary age.... We should Vote for Candidates who Respect and Protect Marriage and the Family" (Bishop Strickland, 6/5/2020)
