Prayer for the Protection of Religious Liberty
O God our Creator,
Through the power and working of your Holy Spirit,
you call us to live out our faith in the midst of the world,
bringing the light and the saving truth of the Gospel
to every corner of society.
We ask you to bless us
in our vigilance for the gift of religious liberty.
Give us the strength of mind and heart
to readily defend our freedoms when they are threatened;
give us courage in making our voices heard
on behalf of the rights of your Church
and the freedom of conscience of all people of faith.
Grant, we pray, O heavenly Father,
a clear and united voice to all your sons and daughters
gathered in your Church
in this decisive hour in the history of our nation,
so that, with every trial withstood
and every danger overcome—
for the sake of our children, our grandchildren,
and all who come after us—
this great land will always be "one nation, under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

More CCHD/USCCB Info - Interfaith Worker Justice & the 'Occupy Movement'
See Stephanie Block's Article - Catholic Campaign for Human Development 2011: Part 6 (See the other parts posted on Catholic Media Coalition's website.)
Interfaith Worker Justice is also supporting and encourgaging involvement it the 'Occupy Movement'...see: We Are The 99: Interfaith Resources on the Occupy Movement --since when did USCCB/CCHD money go to this?
How pertinant this info is in light of the fact that ACORN is now destroying docs. associated with OWS ---> "ACORN officials cover up connections to OWS" Why are they doing that?
The USCCB/CCHD Collection is ready to begin in just a few weeks (Nov.19/20th)....do you want your 'blessings' to continue to assist these groups? Do you really? Is it good stewardship to support this cause from the USCCB - (pdf-file grantee list 2010 see page 12)?
Here's the process for applying for USCCB/CCHD -$-GRANT$
CCHD Basic Principles of Catholic Mission
"The collection is taken up in parishes and dioceses nationwide. “Fight poverty in America. Defend human dignity,"..."
IS THIS what Interfaith Worker Justice is all about with their promotion and association of the Occupy Movement?!
The time is quickly approaching...which side are you going to take?
"The world is rapidly being divided into two camps, the comradeship of anti-Christ and the brotherhood of Christ. The lines between these two are being drawn. How long the battle will be we know not; whether swords will have to be unsheathed we know not; whether blood will have to be shed we know not; whether it will be an armed conflict we know not. But in a conflict between truth and darkness, truth cannot lose."
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

Gun Control & the Catholic Church - News Items
'Veil-tip' to Restore D.C. Catholicism, for this news item...that I was totally unaware of - The Catholic Church objects to civilian gun ownership.
Really?!
Maybe, this is where the 'thought/thread' began...over at the National Catholic Reporter - Catholic bishops favor gun control - but who knows it?....?......
Then, we find today, Rev. Michael Pfleger offered his 'advise'/opinion on gun control in light of the Tucson shootings.

CCHD -"Must be Grass-Roots"...."Better Organize"..."A Better Place to Live"
BTW....WHERE'S THE GRANTEE LIST FOR 2010?!
CCHD - $400 MILLION OVER 40 YEARS - USCCB -ENOUGH, IS ENOUGH!
LISTEN TO THIS....
USCCB -CCHD Dir. Ralph McCloud - ENOUGH, IS ENOUGH!!!!
USCCB -CCHD Dir. Ralph McCloud - ENOUGH, IS ENOUGH!!!!
"We exist - CCHD thanks to the generosity of COUNTLESS NUMBER OF CATHOLICS who have contributed somewhere near $400 MIL over 40 years that we have been able to give out in grants to many organizations - economic development initiatives."
STOP GIVING TO THIS!
THE $400 MILLION QUESTION:
WHAT HAVE THEY ACCOMPLISHED?!
AND....IF THIS EFFORT IS SO SUCCESSFUL, THEN WHY DON'T WE HAVE PEOPLE IN JOBS AND OUT OF POVERTY?!
BTW....WHERE'S THE GRANTEE LIST FOR 2010?!
Knowing that there's an appointed Consultant - Fr. Daniel Mindling, OFM, Cap., serving as the new consulting theologian for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development - DOES NOT make me feel better...pay close attention to the audio-Dir. McCloud's words.
