Words of Life
-
“I’m against abortion, but I
don’t want to impose my morality on someone else.” What? How can
you be against the killing of the unborn in one breath and then
justify this by not wanting to tell others what to do? “The problem
is we are allowing abortion to fall into a different category than
every other act of homicide. But abortion is not a different act;
it is a different method of the act of homicide in which one person
kills another.”
-Bryan Kemper of Stand True Ministries, the Southern
Cross, February 2010
For persons
diagnosed with a terminal illness, that the love of Our Lord will be
evident in the tender care they receive from family and caregivers;
We pray to the Lord.

Spiritual Reflections on This Week's Readings
by Father Hector

HAVE YOU HEARD....?
President Obama tells us that the law
won't pay for abortions.
But he is misleading the American people.
Let me be clear: Under President Obama's new health
care reform law,
there is no comprehensive ban on abortion funding,
more
Dear Friend of Life,
Don't you wish that your state could simply "opt out" of the
explicit federal abortion funding in President Obama's
disastrous health care reform? If you think it sounds crazy,
think again.
more.
Dear
Friend of Life,
Not since Roe v. Wade has our movement faced such a
challenge.
When President Obama signed the health care bill into law
earlier this year, he immediately shifted the fight against
taxpayer-funded abortion to the state level, opening up fifty
new battlefields overnight.
What had been a unified struggle against federal taxpayer-funded
abortion turned into a state-by-state fight for the lives of the
unborn. This radical shift, coupled with the nomination of the
most pro-abortion Supreme Court nominee in the past decade,
presents an unprecedented test of our will to fight for those
who have no voice.
