DEACON FOR LIFE

Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.

St. Joseph's deadline to align health care, doctrine is delayed
AZ Central

St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center has won a last-minute reprieve from Bishop Thomas Olmsted's Friday deadline for the hospital to meet his demands over moral teaching or lose its status as a Catholic hospital. The deadline was moved to Tuesday after a letter from Catholic Healthcare West, the hospital's parent company, reached the bishop late Thursday. The letter's contents are unknown, and St. Joseph's Hospital officials had no additional comment. Diocesan officials said nothing more than announcing the new deadline.
