Bishop Scharfenberger is continuing the observance of the Fortnight for Freedom in our Diocese with a Holy Hour for Religious Freedom and the Sanctity of Human Life tomorrow night, Saturday, June 28th at 7 o’clock PM at the Shrine of Our Lady of Martyrs in Auriesville. Can you join for just one hour with our bishop in asking God’s blessings upon our Nation? The inalienable right of religious liberty includes the freedom to practice our faith not only in the churches, but out in the public square, as well. The Supreme Court decisions about the HHS Mandate will be announced on Monday. Our prayer response is truly critical.

Biggest upgrade since the Bishop in Phoenix was replaced.

Will the new bishop continue Hubbard’s policy of committing the MORTAL SIN of giving Communion to Cuomo? How about the mortal sin of giving Communion to the mayor of Albany?

Bishop Hubbard famously held a Mass in 2011 for the Catholic Association for Lesbian & Gay Ministry, a Catholic organization that had been banned from meeting in other dicoeses because it dissents from Catholic teaching on same-sex relationships. That year, he also said it would not be “appropriate” to deny New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo Communion over his pro-abortion stance.

and where was the pope on this?? or is this part of the "new tradition" of the RCC?

**Jason Kippen told LifeSiteNews that the Knights of Columbus played an enormous role in the Walk’s success. Not only did they pay $800 in fees to help get the Walk going, Kippen says the Knights “sponsored the event, got the permit, and paid for a million-dollar insurance policy for the Walk itself.”**

A major bump for the Knights off Columbus.
