  • "Today we remember all those who were killed 23 years ago on September 11....let us also remember those whose intentionally caused deaths have been disguised by terms such as "reproductive freedom,' 'medical aid-in-dying,' 'comfort care,' and 'brain death'” (HaloVoice, 9/11/24).
  • Wife, Mother, Grandmother…and Pro-Life Prisoner (Crisis Magazine, 9/5/2024)
    • "Please take five minutes to dial the US Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. Ask the operator for Speaker Mike Johnson’s office and leave a message plainly and respectfully: 'Please defund Planned Parenthood. We don’t need to spend that money.' Leave your name and email address and say 'thank you.'” (Wednesday STOPP Report, 9/4/24)
The marriage of a woman and man is profoundly different from any same sex relations.  Marriage is a profound sign of God's love for His people and His platform for continuing His work of creation.  I have found no mention of whether Trinity Health Mid Atlantic still claims adherance to the USCCB's Ethical & Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services.  As per Pope Benedict XVI,
Art. 11. – The diocesan Bishop is obliged, if necessary, to make known to the faithful the fact that the activity of a particular charitable agency is no longer being carried out in conformity with the Church’s teaching, and then to prohibit that agency from using the name “Catholic” and to take the necessary measures should personal responsibilities emerge.

No matter how deluded is James Martin, SJ, & how reticent other Catholic clergy and bishops are to proclaim it, we know that the marriage of a woman and man is profoundly different from any same sex relations.  Marriage is a profound sign of God's love for His people and His plan for continuing His work of creation. 
I have also been unable to find mention of whether Trinity Health Mid Atlantic still claims adherance to the USCCB's Ethical & Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services.
Art. 11. – The diocesan Bishop is obliged, if necessary, to make known to the faithful the fact that the activity of a particular charitable agency is no longer being carried out in conformity with the Church’s teaching, and then to prohibit that agency from using the name “Catholic” and to take the necessary measures should personal responsibilities emerge.

Catholic Vote Campaigns & More (9/2: Labor Day update)


ABSOLUTELY NO to slaughtering human infants - before or after birth!

ABSOLUTELY NO to mutilating kids' gonads or any other promotion of transgenderism.

ABSOLUTELY NO to pretending that support for monogamous heterosexual marriage is a hate crime.

"Almost two decades ago, I wrote:

A 'cafeteria' mindset is often noted to exist among misguided Catholics. Some have gotten the notion that the Church offers teaching on the sanctity of human life and marriage for "conservatives," while she alternately offers teaching on social concerns for "liberals." Authentic, seamless connections between teachings on the sanctity of human life, marriage and family, and social issues get lost.... 
 
'Casti Connubii' [Pope Pius XI's encyclical of 1930]...is a profound and beautiful treatise on marriage. Proclaiming marriage's dignity and sanctity, Pius XI shows deep affection and paternal concern that people not be led astray. Preventing such, he calls the 'sacred trust' of priests and bishops....
 
If we truly love our clergy, don't those of us who embrace the Theology of the Body and NFP bear responsibility to remind them that Pius XI's words were never abrogated? "If any confessor or pastor of souls, which may God forbid, lead the faithful entrusted to him into these errors or should at least confirm them by approval or by guilty silence, let him be mindful of the fact that he must render a strict account to God, the Supreme Judge, for the betrayal of his sacred trust" (Amazon review, 9/13/2005)....

How on earth are we hearing so little when the Democratic Party is shamelessly promoting abortion, transgenderism, and supposed alternatives to the traditional family? 

God help us! (Catholic365, 8/24/2024)

9/8, 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time: Ephphata, September 8

Mass for Life.                                  
Pa March for Life, September 23


(23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time; sign/voice) 

  • Have the Supposedly Pro Life and Pro Marriage/Family Initiatives of the USCCB, State Catholic Conferences, and [Arch]Diocesan Offices Outlived Their Usefulness? (Catholic365, 8/24/2024)
  • "Planned Parenthood is now targeting deaf children in schools as it strives to reach more people to infect with its perversion. STOPP will begin sending letters to each of these schools and will ask them to not accept Planned Parenthood’s perverted sex education program. STOPP has included a list of the schools for the deaf here, and we are asking for your help as well to write and ask them to say NO to Planned Parenthood’s sex education program for middle and high school students. Let’s beat Planned Parenthood to the chase and inform these schools why their students do not need Planned Parenthood’s disastrous 'education.'  Please download this letter template to write your own letters to these schools." (American Life League, 8/23/2024)
