UPDATE - Physician Assisted Suicide Bill
(Excerpts from a message from Andrew Rivas, Manager of Policy & Advocacy, ADW)
Maryland Senate President, William Ferguson, announced that the physician assisted suicide bill will not be voted on this year. Parishioners from the Archdiocese of Washington & Baltimore took the time to voice their opinions. By the latest count, the Maryland Catholic Conference estimates around 160,000 emails were sent. Postcards and letters were also hand delivered and phone calls lit up the capitol switchboard all saying they oppose physician assisted suicide. Several representatives have openly said they listened to their constituents' concerns and decided not to support the bill "for now." Let us all offer up a prayer of thanks and ask our Heavenly Father for help as we continue to support or oppose other important bills still being debated in Annapolis.

Want to put your pro-life beliefs into action? Women volunteers are urgently needed to assist struggling pregnant mothers. This includes keeping in touch with them via text, phone, or e-mail during their pregnancy; bringing them needed items, such as cribs, diapers, baby clothes, formula, etc., that are provided by the project; and praying for them. The average time commitment is 60 minutes or less per week. Men are also needed to set up cribs or to pick up donations once or twice per month. Join our over 120 volunteer team members that make this help possible to more than 300 needy moms.
