New data shows Catholicism is gaining momentum on college campuses across the U.S.
Participation in adult Catholic conversion classes is up 115% from last year, and more students are showing up for retreats and receiving the sacraments.
@ChanleySPainter has the latest | @foxandfriends
🚨The US bishops have called for Catholics to pray and act in a focused effort until the end of October for an end to the spread of abortion pills
Archbishop Paul Coakley, President of the USCCB, has said 'Every abortion involves the death of a child and harm to the mother'
We are having a blast at the Iowa State Fair! 🌽 🇺🇸 ❤️
The strength of the Heartland lies in pro-family, pro-children, pro-life values. While, states like Massachusetts pass scary up to birth abortion laws, Iowa can lead the nation towards defending the lives of American babies and what makes America great.
Did you stop by the @pulselifeadvocates booth? Tell us how you had fun at the fair in the comments!
@jammles9 Ask any parent who’s had an injured or sick child that passed away. Even an extra couple minutes of theirs would be worth it. Even if he passed away within hours of birth it would have been worth it. What sick, strange person.
"What I found particularly gross was the reaction of the entirely female crowd around the female governor of Massachusetts as she signed this barbaric provision into law. They were clapping and cackling with delight because what can only be called infanticide can now be practiced with impunity in their state.
I’m old enough to remember when Mario Cuomo, the devoutly Catholic governor of New York, admitted that, though he found abortion personally repugnant, he was, after tortured wrestling with his conscience, willing to give it limited protection of law.
How far we have fallen from agonized and conflicted Cuomo to the present governor of Massachusetts and her entourage gleefully applauding the murder of children."
I know I’ve been posting a lot recently, but as Fr. Richard John Neuhaus used to say, “it’s a target-rich environment” right now.
The governor of Massachusetts just signed into law a statute that permits abortion up until the moment of birth, as long as mother and doctor give the go-ahead.
Please understand what this means. A fully-formed child, moments before exiting the birth canal, can be eviscerated, chopped into pieces, have its head crushed or skin burned off—all under the full protection of Massachusetts law.

Along with many others, I was appalled by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s giggling dismissal of “Woke 1” as “crazy.”
In case you’ve forgotten, she herself was one of the most passionate advocates of de-funding the police, tearing down statues of American heroes, establishing racial quotas, dividing the country between oppressors and oppressed, etc.
I quite agree that these policy recommendations and policies were “crazy,” but she has to own up to endorsing them.
More to the point, Woke 1 was not only misguided; it was cruel.
One of the bitterest fruits of Wokeism was the cancel culture that resulted in armies of people losing jobs, reputations, and careers because they didn’t correspond to the reigning orthodoxy.
I happen to know several people whose lives were devastated by Woke crusaders.
But now it’s just “ha-ha, wasn’t that crazy.” No, it was brutal and inhumane.
"We the people need a national standard to end confusion and establish a singular American policy for the unborn. Barbarism is proliferating in Blue States but we remain one nation under God."
At 36 weeks a baby is fully developed, feels pain, recognizes familiar voices, and can live outside the womb. They are not almost alive, they have been alive, they are alive.
Governor Maura Healy of Massachusetts legalized killing American babies as supporters clapped enthusiastically around her. We the people need a national standard to end confusion and establish a singular American policy for the unborn. Barbarism is proliferating in Blue States but we remain one nation under God.
As we reflect on Massachusetts' newly signed bill allowing abortion up until the moment of birth, a Catholic priest speaks the hard moral truth about civic duty and an informed vote.
We admire Father John Lankeit of @PhoenixDiocese for speaking to those he shepherds about the power of their vote, educating one's self about abortion, and political maneuverings around it.
Moral clarity demands American speak and act. We are one nation under God and need a national standard to end extremism in the states.
