This & That (Fr. S. Katziner)

“The so-called Reproductive Health Act now allows women to procure abortions up until the moment of birth in NY State”

Applause and cheers rang out in the New York State Senate chamber as legislators passed the measure, and Gov. Cuomo wore a pink tie to sign it into law. Even the date chosen by lawmakers to vote on the measure was a point of twisted

jubilation: Jan. 22 marked the 46th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision.

So what does the so-called Reproductive Health Act allow? Far from providing real health care to mothers and their children,

the Reproductive Health Act, through the hazy language of “at any time when necessary to protect a woman’s life or health,”

now enables women to procure abortions up until the moment of birth in New York state. It removes abortion from the state’s criminal code — meaning that any attack on a child within the womb will be considered by law an attack on the mother alone. The unborn child is henceforth inconsequential. This is not to

say that there are no signs of hope for the pro-life movement at the state level. The new governor of Ohio, Republican Mike

DeWine, has verbally committed to signing the “heartbeat bill” that former Gov. John Kasich vetoed at the end of last year. If

made law, this bill would not allow abortions to take place once a baby’s heartbeat has been detected (anywhere from six to 12

weeks after conception). Lawmakers in Iowa, Florida, Kentucky, Missouri, Mississippi, Arkansas, Minnesota and Tennessee have

introduced similar legislation

The above is from an editorial that was part of the February 10-16, 2019 Our Sunday Visitor Newsweekly. Email: [email protected].

_______________________________________________________

New York State “legalizes abortion essentially for any reason through all 9 months of pregnancy”

“Abortion has always been built on a lie. Today, the lie switched from ‘abortion is a choice’ to ‘abortion is

healthcare.’ A law recently passed in New York not only legalizes abortion essentially for any reason through all

nine months of pregnancy, but removes any protection for children born alive after abortion. A similar bill was

proposed in Virginia along with several other states, all in the name of women’s health.

This legislation is evil, pure and simple. And it shocks the conscience to see such evil legislation greeted with

raucous cheers and standing ovations. It is sickeningly dishonest to claim that women’s lives or health depend on intentionally killing their children. This

is especially true for late-term abortion, which always involves the purposeful destruction of a child which could be born alive, with much less risk to the mother, had they

both received real healthcare. Now is the time for all Catholics— bishops, priests and laity— to fight for the unborn with renewed vigor. We

must educate family, friends, legislators and fellow citizens about how it is never necessary to intentionally

kill unborn children in order to save their mothers.

The above is part of the statement released by the US Bishops Pro-Life Committee on 2/9/2019

4 099 St. Ephrem

Dear St. Ephrem Parishioners,

Thank you Sister Dorothy, Sister Shaun and all of our teachers from our school. What a blessing

for me to be a messenger delivering the letters and cards for Valentine’s Day to the inmates from the

Philadelphia Prison System. The cards and letters were great and inspirational. I gave out over 150!

Blanche Carney, Commissioner of the Philadelphia Prison System, was touched with joy by the quality of

the letters and cards from our children.

QQuotes of thanks received from some of the inmates:

“Thank you for your message. You’re in my prayers. God is good.”

“Stay positive. Have faith and God will be with you always.”

“Your letter lifts my spirit up. Thanks for the prayers. May the Lord bless you and your family.”

“Your cards and letters make things go a lot easier.”

“I really enjoy the drawings and artwork that you send.”

“Dear friend, I try to read my Bible every day to stay with the Lord. Thank you. God bless.”

“I hope God will give you blessed days.”

May God bless you all.

Your Deacon and Chaplain in Christ,

Deacon Ed
