Transcription

1 Saint John The Evangelist A Welcoming Parish Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time October 28, 2018 Statement by San Diego Bishop Robert McElroy: There is nothing Christian or Catholic about the hateful and vile people whose persecution of Aaron Bianco drove him from his ministry and who continue to threaten him, his family, and the staff and community at St. John the Evangelist parish. These reprehensible acts are utterly contrary to Catholic teaching and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The hatred that lies behind them constitutes a dark and vicious corner in the life of our Church that every member of the Catholic community must reject.

Hence, there is a mystical meaning to be found in a leaf, in a mountain trail, in a dewdrop, in a poor person s face. The ideal is not only to pass from the exterior to the interior to discover the action of God in the soul, but also to discover God in all things.

This is not true: good Catholics immerse themselves in politics by offering the best of themselves so that the leader can govern." - Pope Francis The California Catholic Conference is the staff office of the California Catholic Conference of Bishops.
