Good morning to everyone. As I mentioned this Sunday, Adoration on Thursdays will continue into the future. There are no sign up sheets, just come when you can, when you want, or maybe when you need to find a moment of peace. Today, I want to get the word out about this Thursday's closing. Adoration closes at 10p.m. We have begin a bilingual closing liturgy. We start at 9:30p.m. I announced Sunday, this Thursday, we will have a special Holy Hour for peace. We will start at 9:00p.m. There will be pamphlets so all can be involved. Join us if you can, all are invited. I can easily Live Stream if anyone wishes to join from home.

Information on the recent decision of the Supreme Court: It defined the legal understanding of people’s “sex” across the country, to include their action or their asserted transgender status. Rather their being male or female. This was most likely an attempt to honor people’s rights, but sadly misguided. Everyone has dignity and rights given by almighty God that we must honor. We should reach out with special compassion for the marginalized and the hurting. All are welcomed here, whoever you are or whatever background. Jesus died for all and it is both the Church’s duty and the Church’s joy to help all to know and follow him. The recent Supreme Court decision can further erode how people understand the truth that we are all made male and female and in relation to one another. It undermines the truth about marriage and attacks the basis of family life.
