The following persons have been either excommunicated by the Roman Catholic Church, silenced, or abused by Catholic priests.
In recognition of their suffering and/or the courageous and valuable work for which the Church has censured them, we honor them here and praise God for the witness of their lives.
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kin-dom of heaven.
Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Matthew 5:10-12

Women deserve better than abortion! Read the truth cwax.blogspot.com Contraception is deception. Abortion is never safe for the unborn child. Abortion Destroy innocent human life every time.
Thank you, n/a, for your caring about women and about unborn children.
Yes, abortion ends a potentially full human life, but I also care deeply about children who are born into situations of abuse and harm.
I trust the judgment of a woman on whether she can give a child the life and love it deserves and whether she can entrust it to someone else.
