URGENT: MUST READ

DO NOT SIGN - PRO ABORTION SIGNATURE CAMPAIGN IN ARIZONA

statement from our Bishops

THE MORE YOU KNOW.

The campaign is asking for signatures to protect & safeguard "women's healthcare". However, it is quite the opposite. Here is one of the many things it will do:

The abortion amendment allows for unrestricted, unregulated abortion.

Even painful late-term abortion up until birth.

Below is the actual language.

WHERE TO FIND IT:

The limit on abortion at viability (when the unborn baby can survive outside the womb, about 20-21 weeks gestation) is virtually erased by the broad “mental health” exemption. Courts have read “mental health” or “health” to include stress or anxiety. In Doe v. Bolton, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that “all factors – physical, emotional, psychological, familial, and the woman’s age… may relate to health.” By including this language, the amendment will allow abortion at any stage of development for virtually any reason if the “treating health care professional” signs off on it. This is further convoluted by using the vague term “necessity” without defining the term. This leaves the provider – who does not have to have training and expertise in obstetrics - to decide what constitutes necessity

DECLINE TO SIGN & URGE OTHERS TO DO THE SAME

ATTENTION PARENTS!

As Catholic parents, we have the responsibility of teaching our kids about God, but how do we answer this call?

St. Gabriel is bringing the resources right to you & your family with

Every Sacred Sunday's "Every Sacred Family", a Mass discussion guide.

The parish is making this available at all Masses to help engage our children more in the Liturgy of the Word and to spark meaningful conversations about our faith.

This guide is a resource to spark meaningful connections and faith-centered conversations with our kids.

By preparing for Mass using this simple guide, we can arrive at Mass calmer and ready to celebrate together, growing in faith as a family.

This guide is for those of us who:

We want to talk to your kids about God, but aren’t sure where to start
We want our kids to grow up Catholic and stay Catholic
We want more peace, connection, and conversation as a family
We're doing our best to raise holy, Catholic kids, but don’t have time to create a faith curriculum
We're seeking a simple way to help our kids celebrate going to Mass
We feel unqualified to lead conversations about faith
We have 5 minutes in the car on the way to Mass to connect as a family
We arrive at Mass and the kids may be missing shoes but we're just glad we made it
We want our family to look forward to Mass with a spirit of celebration each Sunday
