Editorial
Since the birth of the first "test-tube baby" in 1978, in vitro fertilization (IVF) has provided hope and a path to parenthood for many couples who cannot conceive naturally. The Catholic Church, however, has consistently rejected IVF - not out of hostility to suffering couples, but because of deeper beliefs about marriage, human life, and the dignity of the human person. The Church opposes IVF largely because the process usually creates multiple embryos in a laboratory. Some are implanted, but others are frozen, discarded, or destroyed. Since the Church views each embryo as a human life, this loss of embryos is considered morally unacceptable. The inherent dignity of a human person deserves full moral and legal respect and protection. The Church teaches that embryos must never be treated merely as a means to an end.

Kathleen and Ron have been foster parents for most of their 35 years of marriage, and in addition to raising four children of their own, they have now fostered over 200 children.

For Catholics, the sacrament of confirmation is a wonderful source of the increase and deepening of the graces we receive at baptism. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that confirmation "unites us more firmly to Christ," "increases the gifts of the Holy Spirit in us," and "renders our bond with the Church more perfect." As we read in the Book of Wisdom, "Virtues are the fruit of her labors, since it is she who teaches temperance and prudence, justice and fortitude; nothing in life is more useful for human beings."

This paper is concerned with an evaluation of what films have to say on one of the most urgent issues of our culture, the right-to-life issue of abortion. Time constraints and the quantity of material available on the first life issue do not allow a comprehensive examination of the other two life issues (infanticide and euthanasia). Thus, I will focus on two major abortion films, Alfie (1965) and The Cider House Rules (1999). More importantly, what right-to-life criticism can say about these films is substantial and can indicate how other films on the life issues can be reviewed. Proclaim Sermons
The "I Am" statements in the Gospel of John define who Jesus is. In this passage John the Baptist, a witness to the light, defines himself with a series of "I Am Not" statements. These should lead us to consider who we are and who we are not, and help us become better witnesses to the light. Eric Metaxas

Because there are so many inaccurate articles continually being written about the Islamic movement and its advance into any of the non-Muslim nations, I've been strongly encouraged to write about this topic in order to help us understand the very real threat to pro-life advocacy and to not just the lives of the yet to be born, newborns, or patients, but to the lives of any who resist this extremely political movement.
