May the Lord continue to Bless you!

Dear Parishioners, As you read this, I am either preparing to leave or have left to Medjugorje. I am leading a pilgrimage of 16 to visit the sites around Medjugorje, which Pope Francis officially approved as a pilgrimage site (before it was for private visitations). I will be celebrating mass and hearing confessions there. I will be celebrating my 14th Anniversary of Ordination to the priesthood on May 21st and the 3rd Anniversary of Msgr. Ben’s death over there. I will pray for you and your intentions and ask you pray for me. I urge you to follow the instructions in bulletin and voice your opposition to S.B. 179. This bill, if approved would remove parental notification for minors wanting to have an abortion and would increase abortion in Nevada. Please act now!! Pray for Rogelio Molina who will be ordained a transition deacon on May 22nd at Holy Spirit. Next year he will be ordained a priest. Pray for an increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life. I am praying for you and your families while I am on pilgrimage. May our Risen Lord continue to bless you and your families!! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Queridos Parroquianos, Mientras lees esto, me estoy preparando para irme o me he ido a Medjugorje. Estoy liderando una peregrinación de 16 para visitar los sitios alrededor de Medjugorje, que el Papa Francisco aprobó oficialmente como sitio de peregrinación (antes de que fuera para visitas privadas). Estaré celebrando Misa y escuchando confesiones allí. Celebraré mi 14º Aniversario de Ordenación al Sacerdocio el 21 de Mayo el 3er. Aniversario del fallecimiento de Monseñor Ben. Oraré por ti y por tus intenciones y te pediré que ores por mí. Le insto a que siga las instrucciones en el boletín y exprese su oposición a S.B. 179. Este proyecto de ley, si se aprueba, eliminaría la notificación de los padres para los menores que desean tener un aborto y aumentaría el aborto en Nevada. ¡Por favor actúe ahora! Ore por Rogelio Molina, quien será ordenado Diácono de Transición el 22 de Mayo en el Espíritu Santo. El año que viene será ordenado Sacerdote. Oremos por un aumento de las vocaciones al Sacerdocio y la Vida Religiosa. Estoy orando por usted y sus familias mientras estoy en peregrinación. ¡Que nuestro Señor Resucitado continúe bendiciéndoles a usted y a sus familias!

Sincerely yours in Christ, Father Steve Hoffer Pastor of Holy Family

SB179 Will Be Voted Out of Committee SB179 - Unintended Consequences... SB179 deals with major changes in abortion law. It eliminates the definition and criminal penalty for abortions, paving the way for back alley abortions and DIY home abortion kits. It also eliminates requirement for age verification and coercion screening, thereby protecting abusers and making child sex-trafficking that much easier in Nevada. Women must currently be informed of the emotional risk that abortion can entail. SB179 eliminates this requirement. This bill does not help women.

Where is it in the process? SB179 has been amended and voted out of the senate. Nevada Right to Life was pleased that opposition to this bad bill was bipartisan. It was heard in Assembly HHS on Wednesday. There was tremendous opposition from citizen lobbyists. While there was a sea of purple (the abortion activists), many were paid and bussed in. Our people came on their own dime, wore their own choice of wardrobe and gave excellent, logical, and impactful testimony. It has been scheduled to be voted out of HHS committee Monday, May 13.

What's next? If SB179 passes out of committee tomorrow, it will then need to be voted on by the full Assembly by May 24. If the Assembly does so, it must then be signed by Governor Steve Sisolak. That gives us two places to kill the bill.

How do we stop this bill? 1. Please visit the legislative poll site and register your opposition to SB179 at https:// www.leg.state.nv.us/App/Opinions/80th2019/.Be sure to pick SB179, amended version. 2. Please email all members of the Assembly HHS committee prior to 12:30pm tomorrow (Monday). Click link to email all. 3. Send an email to Assembly Majority Leader, Teresa Benitez-Thompson and Speaker Jason Frierson asking them to kill SB179. 4. Send an email to Governor Steve Sisolak and ask him to veto SB179 if it gets to his desk.

YOUNG WOMEN OF THE DIOCESE OF LAS VEGAS ASK ABOUT CATHOLIC DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAS What are the spiritual benefits of belonging to CDA? Young Women who join Catholic Daughters are those who feel called to prayer and service. Joining gives members a chance to work with others who feel the same call and who share the same beliefs and values.

Come join us and serve god in charities you would like to participate in. Let’s see what god is asking you to do. - While finishing High School or beginning College, you too can serve the Lord while attending to your studies. - CDA offers Leadership opportunities and membership opportunities to learn how to step out in faith to do God’s work. - You can also participate in doing small things or one event and be part of our prayer team throughout the year. - You may already be active in your church. CDA fits in with your service very well. Court Ave Maria, at St. Anne’s Parish Catholic Church, 1901 S.
