Trying to get caught up after a week of weather issues---and more---while still getting some Sunday time-off...BUT---this issue is such a big deal for some Hudson Valley residents, it deserves a quick post. Pls. forgive any formatting eccentricities.
Back on July 20, Townhall reported that a group of Catholic nuns and healthcare providers in New York had filed suit against the state over its assisted suicide law, one that would force those religious groups to inform patients of "end-of-life options," including assisted suicide.

The group included the Little Sisters of the Poor, the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne, the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm, and the Diocese of Rockville Centre and Catholic Health, a network of Long Island hospitals. Now a court has granted them relief from the state's assisted suicide law, at least temporarily - ,MORE AT New York Nuns Get a Temporary Win Against State's Assisted Suicide Law

IS THERE A 2026 GROTTO INSTALLATION, OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE MASS AND CELEBRATION IN VASSALO?
A reader asks if there will be an OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE mass and event in Vassallo this year. Don't know but you should contact Holy Name directly and their Spanish Ministry holynameofmary.org
FYI: For a number of years, pandemic excepted, this very active ministry marked the anniversary of the Grotto's installation with a bi-lingual mass and very lively celebrations. (Click on your editor's photos from 2012 and 2013.)
In addition, the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe is celebrated with what is known as a Serenada annually, a series of prayers and songs dedicated to the Empress of the Americas and Patron Saint of the Unborn and México. It has been a privilege to attend these events for well over a decade. They are uplifting and spiritually nourishing.
If you search "Guadalupe" at this blog, you will find many more photos up to and including, last year.
