During this month dedicated to Respect for Human Life, it is good for us to consider in some detail some important dimensions of this topic. The matter of abortion is one such matter. Formerly there was much more consensus on this issue. The Catholic Church has never wavered in its official teaching. This teaching is found clearly summarized in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, ##2270-75.

The U.S. Bishops have designated October as Respect Life month. October is also the month of the Holy Rosary. This is an appropriate coincidence. Jesus gave Mary to us as he was dying on the Cross, to be our Mother. She is the new Eve. As Eve was the mother of all the living, so Mary is the mother of all the brothers and sisters of Jesus.

During the past week, I sent letters of invitation to those whose names were submitted as possible members of the Parish Pastoral Council. Thank you to all who took the time to offer nominations. In the coming weeks, two discernment meetings will be held. Those who respond to the invitation will be able to determine whether they are ready and able to join with current members to continue the work of the council. I ask that you pray for a successful outcome to these meetings.
