RECITATION OF THE ROSARY EVERY WEDNESDAY: “In the contemplative prayer that is the recitation of the Rosary, Mary has given us a simple yet powerful weapon for the spiritual warfare that is part of daily life in this “valley of tears.” It is not a weapon of violence or intimidation but rather one of peace and healing.” Our community continues to meet to Pray the Rosary through the intercession of our Blessed Mother as well as Saints from Ukraine and Afghanistan for peace in the world. Join us every Wednesday afternoon at 4:30 in the Chapel in the office building

OTHER IMPORTANT DATES
CALIFORNIA CATHOLIC CONFERENCE
Bulletin Announcement For September 25VOTE “NO” ON PROPOSITION 1 Proposition 1 is a worst-case scenario for abortion in California. It is an expensive and misleading ballot measure that allows unlimited late-term abortions — for any reason, at any time, even moments before birth, paid for by tax dollars. Prop 1 isn’t needed. Sadly, California already has some of the most permissive abortion laws in the nation that would remain in effect without the amendment, including our current limit on late-term abortions that are permitted only for the life and health of the mother. Prop 1 destroys this common-sense limit. California does not limit state spending on abortion, and with thousands more traveling from other states, the cost will be in the hundreds of millions. Don’t hand lawmakers a blank check to pay for abortions, and don’t let them make California an “abortion sanctuary.” As we enter Respect Life Month, the bishops of California are inviting all Catholics to engage in prayer and fasting to end abortion and for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit to form the minds and hearts of California citizens to defeat Prop 1. With that in mind, our bishops are hosting a Novena to Our Lady of the Holy Rosary to Defeat Proposition 1 from September 29 to October 7. Our Philipino Ministry will be organizing this Novena for our Parish. For dates, times and locations please see the bulletin board on the patio or on the door of the Church office. Do you know someone facing an unexpected or difficult pregnancy, in need of prenatal care, or support with young children? Our local pregnancy helpline here in Yucca Valley is 760-369-8512
