Pro-Life

Roe v Wade Rosary & Mass info

The U.S. Bishops approved the release of "Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political Responsibility from the Catholic Bishops of the United States", (formerly known as "Faithful Citizenship") as well as a summary document (bulletin insert length), entitled "The Challenge of Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship."

These documents urge Catholics to be involved in public life and to use the values of their faith to shape their political choice. They were approved at the bishops’ general meeting in Baltimore, November 12-15. For more information, please read the USCCB press release statement.

These documents will be of great assistance to you in the coming months. We wanted to give you a quick "heads-up” as they will be sure to generate a lot of press tonight and tomorrow. -Tom Grenchik
