Homily #100319 ( 19min) Play -

Saint Joseph was by birth of the royal family of David, but was living in humble obscurity as a carpenter, until God raised him to the highest office ever accorded a mortal man, by choosing him to be the spouse of the Virgin Mother, the virginal father and guardian of the Incarnate Word. Joseph, says Holy Scripture, was a just man. He was innocent and pure, as became the husband of Mary; he was gentle and tender, as one worthy to be named the father of Jesus; he was prudent and a lover of silence, as became the master of the holy house; above all, he was faithful and obedient to divine calls.

Homily #100317 ( 15min) Play

If the virtue of children reflects honor on their parents, much more justly is the name of Saint Patrick rendered illustrious by the innumerable lights of sanctity which shone in the Church of Ireland during many ages, and by the colonies of Saints with which it peopled many foreign countries. The Apostle of Ireland was born in Scotland towards the close of the fourth century, in a village which seems to be the present-day Scotch town of Kilpatrick, between Dumbarton and Glasgow. He calls himself both a Briton and a Roman, that is, of mixed extraction, and says his father was of a good family named Calphurnius. Some writers call his mother Conchessa, and say she was the niece of Saint Martin of Tours.

In his sixteenth year he was carried into captivity in Ireland by barbarians. There he was obliged to shepherd cattle on the mountains and in the forests, in hunger and nakedness, amid snow, rain, and ice. The young man had recourse to God with his whole heart, in fervent prayer and fasting, and from that time faith and the love of God acquired a constantly renewed strength in his tender soul. After six months spent in slavery (more…)

Face of Pro-Life #87 – Eileen Bianchini ( 30min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Eileen Bianchini discusses with Corinn Dahm the threat of legalized assisted suicide coming to the state of Connecticut and the resulting horrors that could be unleashed. These include almost no ability to confirm weather the person is actually consenting to being killed and whether real pressure is being put on them from family, doctors or government to “Not be a burden”. All of which leads to the specter of a universal distrust of the entire medical institution that is supposed to be the one we trust to save our very lives.

Face of Pro-Life #88 -Corinn Dahm and Susan Boyce on CT Health Care ( 30min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Susan Boyce outlines with Corinn Dahm the health care plan for Connecticut that is very similar to the enormously unpopular plan proposed by President Obama that failed on a federal level.  The mass media is not talking about this but it is already passed by the state congress who even overrode a veto by Governor Rell. Listen as Susan itemizes the many problems of the plan including, Obesity Task Forces, more bureaucracy, more taxes, less privacy and freedom, automatic enrollment at least once a year and usually more often. And the plan does not do any of the needed improvements like law suit reform that would truly reduce medical costs.  All of these extra costs are being proposed when the state budget in has record deficits.
