“Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.’” (John 20:21) Peace the first gift of the risen Lord. Just as Jesus sent the apostles out into the world, so too, He sends us. As disciples of Jesus, we are called to be grateful and generous. Look for opportunities to share His peace, not only within our local parish boundaries, but outside of them as well. In giving, we receive the peace of Jesus Christ.

Let Your Voice Be Heard! Say NO to Expanded Abortion Access

The Massachusetts State Legislature will consider passing into law two deeply troubling bills

this legislative session. They are identical in text but differ slightly in their titles. The first, (HB

3320) is “An Act removing obstacles and expanding access to women’s reproductive health”.

The second, (SB 1209) is “An Act to remove obstacles and expand abortion access”. Combined

they share the same acronym – ROE. These bills would:

1) Allow abortions during the nine months of pregnancy for virtually any reason.

2) Eliminate any requirements that abortions be performed in a hospital.

3) Eliminate the requirement that provides medical care to a child who survives an

abortion attempt.

4) Eliminate the requirement that a minor under the age of 18 have the consent of a

parent, guardian, or the courts.

5) Provide state funding for women who cannot afford the procedure.

How can your voice be heard?

Contact your legislators, let them know you are a Massachusetts voter, and say NO on ROE! Log

on to www.macatholic.org and follow the links to find contact information for:

• Your individual State Senator and Representative via zip code link.

• The members of the Joint Committee on Judiciary who will be considering HB 3320.

• The member of the Joint Committee on Public Health who will be considering SB 1209.

For individuals without internet access, please call the Massachusetts Catholic Conference at

617-746-5630 for legislative contact information.

“We, the Roman Catholic Bishops of the four Dioceses of Massachusetts, call on our elected

officials to carefully consider the consequences that these bills would bring to the lives of infants,

parents, families and the citizens of the Commonwealth. We urge all people of good will,

regardless of what faith they practice, to vigorously oppose these extreme measures.”1
