Today's thought(s):
"Religion is the center of a (Catholic) religious man's life. All that he does is done with his religion in mind. His relationship to others is linked to his religion, as is his work and free time. He enjoys a deep communion with God. The conventionally (Catholic) religious man, however, holds religion (the practice of his faith) to merely be a part of his life, not the central, deciding force of his life, and as a result never gains nor experiences deep communion with God."

IMPORTANT UPDATED MESSAGE:
*The Catholic Evangelization Society urges all of our visitors to immediately telephone President Obama and all federal representatives and demand that our government NOT be allowed to force any institution or employer to provide "Health Care Services" that oppose the tenets of their religion (religious faith)!
All Catholics, indeed every citizen, must speak out NOW against the federal Health and Human Services Preventive Care Mandate proposed by President Obama which still mandates (the demands have recently been changed but are still unacceptable) that all private Catholic employers provide insurance to their employees to pay for abortion inducing drugs, surgical sterilizations and contraceptives!
Call the White House today at 202-456-1111 and tell the representative that you oppose the Health and Human Services Preventive Care Mandate because it demands that religious people provide insurance to employees that ultimately enables these very employees and others to prevent the creation of human life or destroy it!
This mandate violates our right to freely exercise our religion - to refrain from any behavior that we believe offends God as our Creator, that denies Him the ability to create - a right protected under the First Amendment of the Constitution!
Please also call the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and complain to your appropriate federal representatives (of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives).
Thank you for caring about this important matter!
E-mail us today if you need prayer or wish to be put on our prayer line!
God loves you and we do too.
