We are saddened to hear of the death of Bishop John F. Kinney. He served as the 5th Bishop of the Diocese of Bismarck from 1982 to 1995. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in peace. Here is a link to a story from the Diocese of St. Cloud (Minnesota) http://thecentralminnesotacatholic.org/retired-bishop-john…/

Part 1: Examining the erroneous idea that humans and society can be made better by encouraging birth of individuals with “good” genes and preventing the conception of persons with “bad” genes.

Society really can’t have it both ways, glamorizing the act of suicide in some cases and demonizing it in others.

Because we NEED it.  We need it for our own holiness and for our salvation.

Praying the rosary teaches us how to imitate Jesus and foster our lives of virtue and it teaches us that we have no better person to guide us in virtue than Our Blessed Mother.

The Diocese of Bismarck is offering a Mass for God’s Children at several locations throughout the diocese. Spirit of Life will host the first on November 5 at 5:30 p.m. with a supper to follow. Bishop Kagan will be the celebrant for this Mass only. Other locations are St. John the Apostle, Minot, on November 12 at 7 p.m. St. Wenceslaus, Dickinson on November 21 at 6:30 p.m. MST. St. Joseph, Williston, on December 16 at 7 p.m. The parish pastors will be the celebrants for these Masses. Registration is not required, but those wishing to have their child’s name or family listed in the Mass program or a memorial flower placed at the Blessed Mary statue should go online to the diocese website at www.bismarckdiocese.com/godschildren or contact Tara Brooke at 701-204-7209 or tbrooke@bismarckdiocese.com. This special Mass is for all children who God has called to His arms directly from the womb or from the care of his or her parents before reaching adulthood. Often, families who have lost a child in the womb do not have the opportunity to grieve their loss with their faith community, and families who have otherwise lost a child yearn for further opportunities to remember, grieve, and pray for them. Parents and siblings, along with family members and friends, are invited to attend the Mass in remembrance of their child(ren).
