Deeply committed to Jesus Christ, we endeavor to become a unified community of faith, worship, and service. We strive to be a warm, welcoming and caring parish in which the gifts and talents of all, young and old, are recognized and graciously used to nourish others.                                                                                                                             

“The great gift of Easter is hope – Christian hope which makes us have that confidence in God, in His ultimate triumph, and in His goodness and love, which nothing can shake.”

“Act to Remove Obstacles to Expand Abortion”

Several parishioners have asked me about proposed legislation in the Sate House concerning expanded abortion access.  The new House Bill#3320 and Senate Bill #1209 will allow abortion on demand in the Commonwealth for all nine months of  pregnancy;   remove requirements that late term abortions be performed in hospitals; remove any need for a young girl to obtain  permission; remove any requirement that efforts be made to save a living baby who survives the procedure and funds the procedures through the Healthy Start  program.  The proposed bills, as I see them, are  extreme.  If you are interested in making your opinion known, you may wish to contact your state senator and state   representative.  The name and contact information can be found at malegislature.gov
