Things you don’t hear on news
To the editor:
After listening to the bashing of the big bad Republicans at my family reunion this last weekend, I feel that I should point out the things you don’t hear on local news.
Church shouldn’t compromise with Chinese government
To the editor:
Regarding the recent illicit Chinese ordination of bishops:
You can’t bargain with the devil! This should be clearly understood by Vatican officials who persist in establishing, at all costs, improved relations with Communist China.

Queridos amigos:
Espero que esta temporada de verano haya traído algo de reposo y recreo para todos ustedes. Rezo particularmente porque hayan estado a salvo de las serias consecuencias del extremo calor de los días recientes. Recemos en estos días por nuestros hermanos y hermanas para quienes las altas temperaturas son un problema serio.
Sin duda, muchos de ustedes han disfrutado de las bendiciones de unas vacaciones de verano, pero para muchos la oportunidad se hace cada vez más cercana antes de que la mentalidad previa al Día del Trabajo/ de vuelta al colegio se afiance. Y luego están aquellos de nosotros que disfrutamos las vacaciones de invierno, aquellos de nosotros que preferimos estar en el calor que con la nieve y el frío.
