Strongly unified and intensely focused

The US Bishops are "strongly unified and intensely focused" on defending the Church and all Americans from the attacks against religious freedom launched by President Obama.  Rocco Palmo has an old post over at Whispers that gives the full text of the statement released.

Are you intensely focused?  Do you recognize how truly important this discussion is?  Do you realize what is at stake here?

Dive into the . . . (drum roll, please) . . . 
Will you be part of this epic event?
This two-week event kicks off on the vigil of the memorial of two outstanding bastions of faith in the face of political oppression, St. John Fisher and St. Thomas Moore, and ends on Independence Day.

If you're in the ATL, you can kick off the fortnight on Friday, June 22 @ 7:00PM at Marist Catholic School, 3790 Ashford Dunwoody Road, Atlanta, GA 30319.

Let's fill the stadium and show the president how serious we are about these issues.

Speakers to include Archbishop Wilton Daniel Gregory, Alan Hunt, Congressman Tom Price, and more.  This will be a family-friendly, non-partisan, ecumenical gathering.

If nothing is started at your parish . . . get on it!
