The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act is a bill to protect the lives of babies born during or after an abortion attempt. It insists that doctors must provide the same care as he/she would for any other child born at that same gestational age if an abortion had not been attempted. It also requires the newborn to be immediately transferred to a hospital, thus ensuring the baby is provided with appropriate neonatal care outside the influence of the provider who was paid to end his/her life.  You can find more information Here

"Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted."
YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

If you are suffering over the death of someone you love, perhaps the 9-week Bereavement Support Group Sessions may help you during this difficult time.  For more information visit the Bereavement Ministry page Here.

PLACE: Holy Trinity Rectory DATE: June 17 - August 12, 2019 TIME: 6:30 - 8:00pm

FACILITATOR: Deacon John Phalen 908-526-2394 There is no fee. Pre-registration is required.

New Jersey has no restrictions on abortion, so it is legal to abort an unborn baby past 20 weeks of life. Please take this opportunity to send a letter to your two Assembly Members and your State Senator asking them to support and co-sponsor the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, A-3452/S-2026. This bill would ban abortion past 20 weeks (5 months) in NJ. You can find a copy of the letter  Here and the names and addresses of your representatives  Here.

Through participation in the 2019 Bishop's Annual Appeal, we help build a civilization of love in the Diocese of Metuchen. Every gift to the appeal advances the educational and charitable ministries of the diocese. Our goal is 100% participation, and every gift counts. To learn more, please view the video message from Bishop Checchio  Here.
