María y el sacerdocio

| Esta columna está dirigida a los fieles de la Diócesis de Madison. Cualquier circulación más amplia transgrede la intención del Obispo. |
Nota del editor: La siguiente es una transcripción de la homilía del Obispo Robert C. Morlino en las ordenaciones sacerdotales del viernes 6 de mayo en la Iglesia Santa María Goretti en Madison.
Tim, Jorge, “mis hijos” puedo decirles esta noche. Al llamarlos mis hijos, quiero agradecerles a sus padres, sus abuelos, sus familias, por mostrarles lo que significa ser un buen padre, mucho antes de que yo apareciera en la escena. Y quiero agradecerles por haberles mostrado a ustedes dos lo que es ser un hijo fiel.
Todo eso entrará en juego en los días, meses y años por venir. Estoy casi tan orgulloso de ustedes esta noche como sus queridos padres lo están, pero no tan orgulloso (creo que no podría manejarlo) pero sé lo orgullosos que están ellos y yo, ciertamente, estoy orgulloso. Estoy muy agradecido a sus queridos padres y sus familias, por su generosidad en darle a la Iglesia tan maravilloso y generoso don.
Appreciates article about the importance of PBS
To Mark Pattison:
I am writing in support of your article in the March 31 issue of the Catholic Herald about the defunding of PBS. It was so refreshing to read the article that as soon as I finished it, I clipped it out and shared it with a few friends, proud that you too thought it important enough of an issue to make others aware.
Planned Parenthood is largest abortion provider
To the editor:
Abortion plays a huge role in Planned Parenthood’s care of pregnant women. According to a “fact sheet” detailing its “services” for 2009, 332,278 abortions were performed, 7,021 prenatal clients were seen, and 977 adoption referrals were made. That means for 97.6 percent of its 340,276 pregnant clients, abortion was Planned Parenthood’s primary “service.”
Planned Parenthood has been in the business of abortion since 1970, steadily performing more abortions even though the national abortion rate has annually declined.
