Statement of Bishop R. Daniel Conlon, Diocese of Joliet
Regarding Passage of Illinois Senate Bill 25
The misnamed “Reproductive Health Act”, Senate Bill 25, is a horrific piece of legislation that
will lead to more children dying through the violent act of abortion, even at a point when they
are able to survive outside the womb. Science indicates that life begins at conception, and to de-
ny the life of certain human beings at young ages is an attack on human rights. No person’s life
should be in jeopardy simply based upon his or her age. Only in the womb do our laws allow
some humans to be accorded the full rights of personhood and some not.
Additionally, this legislation is not in the best interest of women as it removes abortion clinics
from regulations for serious medical procedures. The Church is committed to upholding the dig-
nity of women but does not believe that abortion is a solution when challenging situations arise.
Rather, working towards a society where both mother and child are cared for is the true path of
justice and compassion.
I am aware that some of the legislators who voted in favor of this legislation believe that it vio-
lates their own conscience. Yet, for them party loyalty, even on such a weighty moral issue, has
seemingly trumped conscience.
Abortion is an illogical and inconsistent policy for anyone who stands for human rights. To allow
one person to decide whether another person lives or dies is even more capricious than the
death penalty or war.
Ironically. as Illinois expands the legal and even constitutional right to abortion, many of its
neighboring states have moved to restrict abortion. Clearly, we are a divided society on this issue.
The Catholic Church stakes its position on the ultimate belief that God creates every human
person and endows each of them with the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Father’s Day Special Collection for Diocesan Priests’ Care & Support
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
On Father’s Day June 15-16, 2019, there will be a special collection to care for our infirm and retired
priests. The Fund for Diocesan Infirmed and Elderly Priests is a special way for the people of the
Diocese of Joliet to express their concern for the welfare of those who have dedicated their lives in
service to our pastoral care.
The money in this fund goes toward priests who need help with extraordinary medical expenses or
suffer a catastrophic illness. It also provides for the care of the St. John Vianney Villa, home to sev-
eral retired priests in the Diocese of Joliet.
Prayerfully consider making a donation to help our aged and sick priests as an expression of appre-
ciation for all they have done in exemplifying Christ’s mercy, through their spiritual guidance and cel-
ebration of the sacraments.
On behalf of all the active and retired priests of the diocese, I am grateful for your prayers and for
your generous support of the Father’s Day Collection for our aged and infirm diocesan priests.
Please be assured of my prayers for you.
Most Reverend R. Daniel Conlon
Bishop of Joliet

Hospitality, a Commitment to Action
The presentation will be modeled on St.
Benedict’s Rule: The Reception of
Guests. In Chapter 53, Benedict uses wel-
coming, action words that compel us to
commit ourselves to offer hospitali-
ty to our Guests as if we were seeing
Christ Himself in them. We will focus es-
pecially on those whose needs are critical
in our present day society and will review
the hospitable actions being done in our
Diocese and in our Church in the U.S.A,
with particular attention to immigrants.
Presenters: Sister Christine Kouba, Cathy
Lentz
Updates will be posted on our
web-
site www.shmlisle.org and

Statement from the United States Conference of
Catholic Bishops:
"We [bishops] understand the pain of those for whom divorce seemed the only recourse.
"We urge them to make frequent use of the sacraments, especially the Sacraments of Holy Eucharist and Reconciliation…
"We encourage divorced persons who wish to marry in the Catholic Church to seek counsel about the options that exist to remedy their situation,
including the suitability of a declaration of nullity when there is no longer any hope of reconciliation of the spouses.
If you are divorced and are unsure of your standing in the Catholic Church, please contact
Deacon Larry Fudacz to arrange a meeting to discuss your situation.
If you are divorced and married outside the Catholic Church, you will need an annulment. We will work with you through
the process. Each person’s situation is unique and there are different types of annulments. Once an annulment is granted, we
will discuss how to have your marriage validated in the Catholic Church.
Please note that even if you are divorced and NOT remarried, it is highly suggested that you pursue an annulment, because
healing is experienced through the process. If the annulment is granted, you free to marry again in the Catholic Church.
Please contact Deacon Larry to discuss your situation, or just to learn about annulments in general, or to learn about the dif-
ferent types of annulments.
