Dear Family and Friends,
Our country waits in anxious expectation to see who is to become the next president of the United States of America. As Catholics, we cannot sit back and simply watch. We must pray. And make sacrifices.

The bishops from each corner of this nation have been preaching, teaching, and informing their flocks as well as the rest of the American people... to vote for life. Countless priests have backed them up and followed their lead. The Church has spoken.
Here are some words from Fr. John Corapi's election-alert message to Catholics in America. If you would like to see the full video, watch the three clips at the bottom of this post. Fr. Corapi tells us that we have to vote according to our conscience. However, he clearly points out that "conscience is not an independent entity. It's not something that operates in a vacuum, its something you have to actively work with; you have to form you conscience to the objective norm of Truth: Church teaching..."
Fr. Corapi continues, "in the last several decades the preeminent moral question of our society, of western civilization in general, comes down to one thing. Are there many issues? Yes. Are there many important issues? Yes. But there is an overriding, preeminently important issue. It concerns a right. It concerns a right to life. No other issue takes precedence over that."
Please see where the candidates stand on the key issues:

Pray, friends and family, that our country may have the courage to vote for life.
God bless you all, through Our Lady's intercession,
The Knights of the Holy Eucharist
