(St Joseph the Worker, May 1)
- We should vigorously oppose the Department of Education’s proposed misogynistic rule trying to force acquiescence to gender identities that defy biology.
- Some Catholics still embrace confession, while many more ignore this sacrament (GetReligion, 4/30/23)
- Prayer Appeal Being Sought for Catholic Priest Kidnapped from Nigeria’s Okigwe Diocese (aciafrica, 4/28/23)

- Three States Reject Death Peddlers' "Poison Apples" (HALO, 4/27/23)
- "Many of us who are older remember times when sins that are openly practiced (and even celebrated) today were considered shameful a mere fifty years ago. Pre-marital sex (fornication), living together before marriage (which many called 'shacking up'), and divorce were considered scandalous. 'Gay' was a word that meant happy or joyful, and condoning (let alone celebrating) homosexual acts would have been inconceivable to most Americans. The concept of same-sex marriage was foreign and not even imaginable to most. Up through the 1950s, even contraception was considered by most Americans to be a loathsome practice and was often associated with prostitution.... Lord, heal our land; for we are surely hardened by the deceit of sin. Help us to turn to you. May you use our holy tears to wash away our sins and give us new and tender hearts." (Msgr Charles Pope, 1/30/23)
