A few words of interest from Fr. Fitz: Alert!!!!!!… Some parishioners are still receiving text messages purported to be from me, Fr. Richard W. Fitzgerald, asking for purchase of “Google cards” for my use. It is a scam, and not a message from me. Do not respond if you get such a message. Archdiocese Catholic Appeal Goal reached… Due to a recent donation, we have reached 100% of our Catholic Appeal goal. This means that at the end of the year, we will receive a rebate from the Archdiocese amounting to several thousand dollars. Thank you to all who have contributed to the Appeal. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Donations were made in the month of August for the Hosts in loving memory of Don, Tom and Evan Ferguson by Their Family; and for the Wine in loving memory of Agustin Buñuel by a Friend; and for the Candles in

become saints overnight. It’s a lifelong process of gains and losses that builds us to be who we were meant to be. Consider taking a step into legendary and join the St. Columbkille Men’s Group (21+) for our summer monthly series:

--VOTA NO-- “Acta para Remover Obstáculos y Ampliar el acceso al aborto ”

Un nuevo proyecto de ley de la Cámara #3320 y proyecto de ley del Senado #1209, “El Acta ROE” ha sido propuesto tanto por el Senado como por la Cámara de Representantes Estatal. Si se aprueba, el proyecto: 1. Permite el aborto libre en Massachusetts durante los

nueve meses del embarazo; 2. Elimina cualquier requisito para que incluso los abortos tardíos se realicen en hospitales; 3. Elimina la necesidad de que una jovencita (niña) obtenga cualquier consentimiento antes de someterse a un procedimiento de aborto; 4. Elimina cualquier requisito para que se hagan esfuerzos para salvar a un bebé vivo que sobreviva al procedimiento de aborto; y 5. Financia este tipo de abortos a través del programa “Healthy Start” incluso para mujeres que no califican para MassHealth. Avanzando, la Iglesia alienta a los parroquianos a contactar a los Representantes y Senadores Estatales (o correo electrónico, carta o teléfono) para desalentar el apoyo a este proyecto de ley. Parroquianos pueden ir malegislature.gov y presionar la sección “Legisladores” para encontrar la información de su Representante y Senador Estatal.
