For the second time in a week, a fertility clinic's frozen embryo storage tank malfunctioned. This follows a disaster in a Cleveland clinic which destroyed thousands of lives, left almost 700 mothers-to-be in mourning, and is forcing Americans to take a hard look at just how far we have strayed from the truth about the sacredness of human life.
“In his perplexity, the person should not ask for a sign from Heaven, but, with filial trust in God, should await the divine comfort with which God will allay his fears and dispel his anxiety at the time best suited to further his spiritual progress.”
It was a tremendous blessing for me to have had the opportunity to meet Dr. Gianna Emmanuela Molla, the daughter of St Gianna Beretta Molla at the 2015 World Meeting of Families. She was there representing the St. Gianna Physician’s Guild, whose mission is to unite and encourage Catholic physicians, and those in the health care profession, to promote and defend Catholic principles in a public way by word and example, and to inspire sanctification in their lives. Her inner beauty and humility radiates through her as she carries on the legacy of her mother, who was herself a Catholic physician.
“To the superficial observer, the visit of Mary to her cousin may seem a very ordinary event in her life. But how momentous it was to God the Father, who, through the presence of His most favored daughter, wished to sanctify the precursor of His divine Son!”
“Self-knowledge is at the root of all real growth in holiness...Humility is the heart and soul of virtue. It is humility that gives power and efficacy to all we do for God.”
A new memorial celebrating the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title, Mother of the Church, has been inserted into the Roman Calendar and will be marked every year on the day after Pentecost.
A new study has found that women taking oral contraceptives such as birth control pills as well as patches and injectables are at increased risk of suffering certain types of stroke.
Christians around the country are refusing to let the hosts of The View get away with vile remarks made on a February 13 episode about Christians. They have not only deluged the network with complaints but have now launched an aggressive campaign against the show’s advertisers as well.
Today is International Women’s Day, a day aimed at celebrating mostly “progressive” ideas about the nature and worth of women, but that doesn’t mean this day has to be spent focusing on “gender parity.” Why not spend it on much deeper issues such as how we can change the sexual norms that are so disrespectful and disadvantageous to women?
