Respect Life Once again, we mark the month of October as Respect Life Month. God says to us, "Do not fear: I am with you" (Isaiah 41:10). The 2017-2018 Respect Life theme, "Be Not Afraid," reminds us of this promise. Building a culture of life isn't something we just do one month of the year, or with one event or initiative-it's essential to who we are. It happens through our daily actions, how we treat one another, and how we live our lives." excerpts from Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Chairman, USCCB Committee on Pro-Life Activities.

Father Bertrand Dieuveille, pastor of Sacre-Coeur de Meyer “the parishioners of Meyer as well as myself share your sorrow and pray for our American friends, asking God to give you courage to overcome these events.” The former pastor of Meyer, Father Simon François, stated “it shows that almost every country has its cross to bear, I will include in my prayers the victims and their families.” Sister Brigida of the parish center offered compassion on behalf of the four religious Sisters at Cyvadier ”this tragedy has touched us deeply....We pray that the grace and strength of our good God will touch those who have suffered most deeply.” Connected Catholics October Events: Dining Out: Friday, October 25, 5 pm, Chicken Pie Supper, N.
