Galatians 5:1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Galatians 2:16
Knowing that a man is
not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ,
even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by
the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works
of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Statement from Bishop Kevin J. Farrell
Statement from Bishop Kevin J. Farrell
02/09/2012
I, along with my brother bishops
in the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), continue to
urge Catholics and other people of goodwill to contact their elected
officials to protest the violation of religious liberty mandated by
President Obama and his Administration. While we were hopeful the
President was going to propose a meaningful compromise, we now know it
basically left unchanged the original mandate that will force all
Catholic institutions such as schools, hospitals and charities to
violate their faith tenets by forcing them to provide insurance coverage
that includes contraceptives and abortifacients. This goes far beyond
the issue of contraception and is first and foremost an issue of
religious freedom. Catholics in the Diocese of Dallas are urged to use
the list below to contact your legislators and speak out against this
unjust ruling.
We hope to work with the Administration
to guarantee that Americans’ consciences and our religious freedom are
not harmed by these regulations.
