A Dark Day in America
On September 24, the House of Representa+ves voted to pass what Archbishop Naumann
called “the most extreme pro�abor on bill our na on has ever seen". You can read his
statement�here. The so�called�Women’s Health Protec on Act�would:��
Allow�abor on on demand na onwide�throughout�every stage of pregnancy���
Ban�pro�life laws�in every state and local government���
Force�Americans to support abor ons�with their tax dollars��
Likely�eliminate conscience protec ons�for doctors.�
All but one House Democrat voted for the bill and all House Republicans voted against.
You can�contact�your Representa+ve today either to thank her (if you live on Staten Island)
for vo+ng against H.R. 3755 or to express strong, but respec=ul, disagreement with their
vote for the bill while urging him/her to reconsider support for this radical bill.��
Please also�contact�our Senators to strongly urge their opposi+on to the Senate version of
this bill (S. 1975) when it comes up for a vote. �It is not expected to gain a sufficient majori-
ty to pass in the Senate, but we should not take any chances with such a dangerous bill.��
Hope to overturn Roe v Wade
Pray for Dobbs�
The Women's Health Protec+on Act is a sign of the unease among the pro�abor+on forces
with the recent pro�life victories in Texas and upcoming Dobbs vs Jackson decision at the
US Supreme Court which will determine whether or not a law banning abor+on aEer 15
weeks in Mississippi will stand.��
This decision could poten ally overturn�Roe v Wade and Planned Parenthood vs Casey��
and increase protec on for the unborn in the United States.�
Oral arguments in the case have been scheduled for December 1,
2021 and a decision is expected by June 2022. For an excellent analysis of
the case, see Ed Mechmann's blogpost. �
This is a cri+cal moment in the pro�life movement, and we must respond with prayer,
fas+ng, and witness. Please stay tuned for more informa+on about a dedicated campaign
of prayer and fas+ng for the Supreme Court during the coming months as we await the
outcome of the momentous decision.��

Next Sunday is World Mission Sunday
In 1926 Pope Pius XI ins+tuted Mission Sunday for the whole
Church with the first worldwide Mission Sunday collec+on
taking place in October 1927. That day is celebrated in all
the local Churches as the feast of catholicity and universal �
solidarity so Chris+ans the world over will recognize their �
common responsibility with regard to the evangeliza+on of
the world. �

MINISTRY Opportunies�
Important event Begun by Pope Francis
This past week, Pope Francis officially launched a 2�year program
aimed at “listening to the Church” which he hopes will eventually
set a vision for the future and allow Catholics to come together to
share ideas, frustra ons and hopes for the future of our world-
wide Church. Referred to as “the Synodal path”, this type of gath-
ering is a new, bold endeavor, typical of a man who wants to lis-
ten to the concerns and hopes of the family of God throughout
the world.�
In the opening Mass on October 10, the Pope urged the global
Catholic Church to master the "art of encounter." "Everything
changes once we are capable of genuine encounters with [Jesus]
and with one another, without formalism or pretense, but simply
as we are," said Francis in a homily in St. Peter's Basilica.�
The Synod of Bishops, which emerged out of the Second Va can
Council, was designed in part to provide a mechanism for global
church leaders to come to Rome to confront certain challenges in
church life. Now this newly retooled model adds another compo-
nent that begins with a listening stage with local churches at the
diocesan level.� (We’ll soon be ge8ng word from the Albany Dio-
cese how this process will be begin in our own diocese.)�
In inaugura ng the new process, the pope said the Chris an com-
munity must reflect the "style of God, who travels the paths of
history and shares in the life of humanity."�This is a " me to look
others in the eye and listen to what they have to say, to build
rapport, to be sensi ve to the ques ons of our sisters and broth-
ers," Francis said.�The "art of encounter," said Francis, is marked
by listening and seeking to understand the other.�"Every encoun-
ter, as we know, calls for openness, courage and a willingness to
let ourselves be challenged by the presence and the stories of
others," the pope said.�
Catholics in every corner of the world have been asked to pray for
the success of this new�type of church gathering. The following
prayer has been suggested for our use. Won’t you join Catholics
throughout the world who are pu8ng into the hands of the Holy
Spirit this exci ng new venture:�
�
We stand before You, Holy Spirit, as we gather together in
Your name. With You alone to guide us, make Yourself at
home in our hearts; Teach us the way we must go and how
we are to pursue it. We are weak and sinful; do not let us
promote disorder. Do not let ignorance lead us down the
wrong path nor par ality influence our ac ons. Let us find in
You our unity and strength so that we may journey together
to eternal life and not stray from the way of truth and what is
right. All this we ask of You, who are at work in every place
and me, in the communion of the Father and the Son, �
forever and ever. Amen.�
