Statement on Roe v Wade Nullification
From National Legislative Chairman Eileen Peterson
For 49 years we who are a part of the Catholic Daughters of Americas have prayed, fasted, witnessed with love and supported crisis pregnancy centers.
Today we rejoice and thank GOD that Roe v Wade is overturned!
Just like slavery, this horrific Supreme Court decision denied the humanity in the womb of the child. 63 million babies have been aborted and the pain for those who have been involved is heartbreaking.
May today all Americans unite in Respect for God’s Creation and know anyone in a crisis pregnany will be helped financially, emotionally and spiritually.
Today, GOODNESS HAS TRIUMPHED OVER EVIL!
In Unity and Charity,
Eileen Peterson

Father ed's sunday reading
National Clergy Consultant Father Ed Lamp
July 3, 2022
Fourteenth Sunday in ordinary time
Isaiah 66:10-14; Galatians 6:14-18; Luke10:1-12,17-20
When Jesus sent out his volunteers to continue his work, he gave them definite directions. Afterwards they returned in a spirit of celebration, to report their missionary success.
At election times we get lots of literature in the post, or through social media, or people call to the door, to canvass our vote. The canvassers, who usually travel in twos, will be well briefed, and they have their arguments polished and ready. Since they are representing the election candidate, and, therefore, they stay “on message”, echoing the political manifesto of the candidate’s party. On a regular basis, they return to headquarters to report on progress. Today’s gospel is about a deeper target than vote-seeking votes, but there are similarities. He sent them out in pairs. Although Jesus called each one individually, he never sent missionaries out alone.
There are just two episodes when an apostle went out alone: one was to betray him, the other ended up denying him. The support of others is essential to living the gospel. Even a hermit has to be commissioned by a community, and must stay be in touch with that group.

National Regent
spring Message
Sherry NillesMy dear Sisters in Christ,
My term as National Regent is coming to an end. I have enjoyed every minute of this fantastic journey. Each of you as a member of Catholic Daughters have been a joy and delight. Even with the many challenges of the past two years, every court has made adjustments in their meetings and moved forward to make the best even better. When we can finally meet in person, how thankful we will be!
The theme of this term and also the theme for the 59th Biennial National Convention Let all you do be done with love 1Cor 16-14 has served very well as a reminder of how we should willingly accept our journey through life. This love is not a romantic love, but a true and complete love of God and acceptance of our neighbor. Without love for our neighbor, this world would be hurting. Without innovative women, this world would be stagnant and never changing. Without women who dare to take a chance, this world would be dull and never move forward. Without women willingly accepting all the problems of Covid and making the necessary changes, our beloved Catholic Daughters could not survive and remain alive and active.
