  • U.S. Senators: Vote YES on the Disability Treaty! © Nicolas Früh/Handicap International November 2013 Dear Senator
    U.S. Senators: Vote YES on the Disability Treaty! © Nicolas Früh/Handicap International November 2013 Dear Senator, The United States of America has always been a leader of the rights of people with disabilities. Our country created the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), ensuring the rights of 57.8 million Americans with disabilities, including 5.5 million veterans. The ADA inspired the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) treaty. The CRPD ensures that the basic rights we enjoy, such as the right to work and be healthy, are extended to all people with disabilities. Last December, America’s leadership diminished when the Senate failed to ratify the CRPD by 5 votes. In the pages that follow, you will find the names of 67,050 Americans who want you to vote Yes on the CRPD. Their support is matched by more than 800 U.S. organizations, including disability, civil rights, veterans’ and faith-based organizations. These Americans know the truth: • Ratification furthers U.S. leadership in upholding, championing and protecting the rights of children and adults with disabilities • Ratification benefits all citizens working, studying, or traveling overseas • Ratification creates the opportunity for American businesses and innovations to reach international markets • Ratification does not require changes to any U.S. laws • Ratification does not jeopardize U.S. sovereignty The Senate has an opportunity that doesn’t come along often in Washington—a second chance to do the right thing and to ratify the CRPD. We urge you and your fellow Senators to support the disability treaty with a Yes vote when it comes to the floor.We must show the world that U.S.

The NFCYM undertook this task while expressing much gratitude for the many years of tireless work and advocacy by the CYFUSA board, with their utmost generosity both in the previous and continued roles, responsibilities, and stewardship.

    PRAYER OF THE V ENCUENTRO God of infinite Mercy, you sent your Risen Son to encounter the disciples on the way to Emmaus. Grant us today a missionary spirit and send us forth to encounter our sisters and brothers: to walk with them in friendship, to listen to their hopes and dreams with compassion, and to proclaim your Word with courage, so that they might come to know you once again in the breaking of the Bread. Make us all missionary disciples, and stay with us always, as we seek to share the joy of the Gospel with people of all generations, from every race, language, culture, and nation. We ask you this with burning hearts, filled with the Holy Spirit, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and through the loving intercession of our Blessed Mother Mary, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Star of the New Evangelization in the Americas.

Bishop Garcia will hold a press conference at 1 p.m. (CST) in the Diocese of Monterey. Bishop Garcia will hold a press conference Thursday, Nov. 29 at 9 a.m., at the diocesan Pastoral Center in Austin. Bishop Garcia’s episcopal appointment is the fifth one from the Diocese of Austin made by a pope since 2010. In that year, Pope Benedict XVI appointed Bishop Wm. Michael Mulvey to lead the Diocese of Corpus Christi. In 2013, Pope Francis appointed Bishop Michael “Mike” J. Sis to lead the Diocese of San Angelo. In 2015, Pope Francis appointed Bishop Garcia as the first auxiliary Bishop of Austin. In 2016, Pope Francis appointed Bishop David Konderla to lead the Diocese of Tulsa. In 2017, Pope Francis appointed Bishop William “Bill” Wack, to lead the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee.

A person visiting a strange town, who has leisure at command, and possesses a taste for cu rious research, may usually gratify his inquisitive- ness at a very small expence, as there are few places whose booksellers do not furnish A Guide to the Traveller, Companion to the Stranger, or some other such small book, by which the cu riosities and attractions of the place are pointed out. At least such will be the practice of the traveller and tourist, whose professed object is to find out every thing worthy of personal observation. If this be true in general, it is peculiarly so of such a place as the City of Chester, which fur nishes subjects to the antiquarian and man of taste, far beyond what can be found perhaps in any other town or city in the empire.
