Abortion Act:
On the 27th
April it will be 51 years since the UK 1967 Abortion Act was introduced as the
primary statute law governing the 'termination of pregnancies' in England &
Wales. Since 1967 almost 9,000,000 +++ unborn children have been aborted in the
United Kingdom. The UK has become a society in which 1 in 5 pregnancies now
ends in abortion and where 90% of unborn children diagnosed with Down Syndrome have their lives terminated in intero.
It is in this legacy that clinicians are found to be "bulk -signing"
forms authorising abortion implying that an abortion is just "another
medical procedure" Cora Sherlock.
Baptism:
Being born is a
serious business, so also is being baptised. Parents who bring their child to
be baptised ought to make sure that the sponsors you choose practice their
catholic religion weekly.

Word Meeting of Families Petition Box Itinerary: As part of the preparations for the World
Meeting of Families, a special petition box will visit every parish in the
diocese. It will be available in each parish from the assigned Saturday evening
until the following Friday. During that time each parish can decide whether to
leave the box in the parish church or move it round all the churches in the
parish. Pen and paper will be available so that people can write their petition
and there is no money to be included. Each parish would take the responsibility
for passing on the box as per the itinerary. The petition will be taken to a
religious community who will pray for the intentions and then the intentions
will be taken and included in masses celebrated during
the World Meeting of Families in Dublin in August 2018 including the final mass
celebrated by Pope Francis.
