Washington, D.C. (CNA) – The local Catholic community is ministering to the victims of the mass shooting at a Texas elementary school. The Archbishop of San Antonio, along with priests in that archdiocese, sprang into action as soon as they learned of the tragedy.
The amazed joy of Simeon and Anna at encountering and embracing Christ at the Temple is a virtue that consecrated religious should remember and imitate, the pope said in a homily addressed to religious brothers and sisters.
Bishop James Conley of Lincoln, Nebraska, and the leaders of five Catholic medical or professional associations on Jan. 20 founded the Catholic Health Care Leadership Alliance, meant to support the reception and provision of health care in accord with church teaching.
Pro-life leaders praised the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling Dec. 10 that Texas abortions providers can legally challenge the state’s ban on most abortions but the justices did not issue a stay, thus allowing the current law to remain in effect.
