Dear Brothers and Sisters:

Tragically, the annual Respect Life Month (of October) began with the senseless massacre of innocent people in Las Vegas.  I have already learned that parishioners have been personally touched by this evil act through bonds of friendship or family with some of the victims.  Recent history too often has brought regular news reports of school shootings, indiscriminate bombings, acts of terrorism here and abroad, and a cascade of hateful speech and acts toward virtual strangers.  Abortion has robbed tens of millions of the precious gift of life and now euthanasia is being accepted and legislated throughout the land. Heaven must be crying out for justice and mercy!  I can’t think of any better reason for each of us to commit ourselves to an hour of prayer in our Eucharistic chapel.  We must pray that each person recognize the image of our loving God in every human being.  We must pray that the tide of evil be reversed and that God reigns supremely in our lives and on our earth!

Pax,

Father Paul
