Bright Christmas Thanks
Dear Editor: I am writing once again to thank you for your gift to Families, Fathers, and Children, the prison ministry program operating out of St. Augustine parish, Park Slope. Because of your continued support and generosity, this program is able to provide much needed care and support to families, especially children who have fathers in prison.
The Killing Goes On
Dear Editor: Jan. 22, 1973, the day any claim we had to being a Christian nation ended. Christians do not allow the killing of innocent human beings and that became legal in the U.S. on that horrendous day.
Was It Papal Overreach?
Dear Editor: I really admired Father Cush before he wrote this column… and now even more so. He was brave to put this story (Was This A Case of Papal Overreach?, Jan. 20) out there with all of its gut-wrenching questions, and challenging us Catholics to come to our own conclusions.
Marching for Immigrants
Dear Editor: We were among the 200,000 who took part in the Women’s March on Jan. 20 in Manhattan.
A Child’s View of Race
Dear Editor: Bishop DiMarzio and the U.S. Bishops are courageously addressing the sin of racism.
Blessings of Maryknoll
Dear Editor: I read with interest your article concerning Bishop Francis X. Ford and his hopefully impending sainthood.
Growing Up Polish
Dear Editor: I wish to thank Thomas Straczynski for his beautiful evocation (Dec. 16) of growing up in Polish Greenpoint. Actually, it was all quite familiar to myself since I grew up in Our Lady of Czestochowa parish in South Brooklyn. What beautiful memories! FRANCES GALLAGHER Windsor Terrace
Father Lauder on NET-TV
Dear Editor: NET-TV finally found a slot for the worthwhile program called “Catholic Novels.”
President’s Choice of Words
Dear Editor: President Trump needs to carefully choose his words when giving his opinion on issues that he discusses with his staff.
