Just two days ago we were informed of an event near the Christ the King Law Center’s office that is scheduled to occur this Saturday November 21 at Saint John the Baptist church in Baldwin Park. This event is hosted by the office of Assemblywoman Blanca Rubio. Assemblywoman Rubio is a pro-abortion politician who has been endorsed by Planned Parenthood. She gave a speech in the California state assembly supporting Planned Parenthood and in favor of a resolution supporting them in the state assembly. She was recorded speaking in front of the California state capitol building in support of Planned Parenthood.
Permitting her to host an event on the property of a Catholic church is scandalous to say the least and against God’s holy laws and possibly against the policy of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Her pro-abortion policies and public support for the abortion giant Planned Parenthood are against the 5th, 6th, and 9th commandments of God which prohibit murder as well as impure behavior due to Planned Parenthood’s support for contraception and promiscuity. Furthermore, according to our research the Archdiocese of Los Angeles handbook has stated: “[s]peakers… should not contradict the mission and principles of the Catholic Church, especially in the area of objective moral teaching.” And furthermore “The Catholic community and Catholic institutions should not honor those who act in defiance of our fundamental moral principles. They should not be given awards, honors, or platforms which would suggest support for their actions. (U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Catholics in Political Life).”
It is our request that Assemblywoman Rubio’s invitation to hold such an event on church property be rescinded and that she be disinvited from performing any such events on church grounds. Our office has contacted St. John the Baptist requesting that Rubio’s office not be permitted to hold this event on church property. We then received an email reply denying our request.
Therefore we request that people please contact the church as soon as possible and request that they disinvite this pro-abortion politician from holding her event on church property. The Church’s phone number is (626) 960-2795 and their email is hello@stjohnsbp.org. Here is the website for the church.
The above comes from a Nov. 20 email sent by Christ the King Law Center.
The parish’s hosting of Rubio represents only a symptom of a much bigger problem at that parish, a problem so big that I doubt getting the parish to disinvite Rubio would do anything to really help.
And why would Abp. Gomez even care? He doesn’t even do anything about the scandal at the L.A.R.E.C.
Fake Catholics, this is the kind of candidate you voted for. This radical abortion fanatic has the audacity to peddle her death cult on Catholic property – are you at all disgusted or ashamed? There is no other policy position she supports that even comes close to the importance of protecting children in the womb from being dismembered and killed. Face the truth of your vote!
Well you certainly can tell that the guys in the back are “hen pecked” to death, wearing shocking pink.
Forgive my ignorance, but what is the significance of the pink?
I went to the parish’s website, and there’s a lot of talk of progressive activism but no mention of the holy name of Jesus Christ. There is a link to ‘Faith Formation’ – perhaps the pastor should sign up.
A pink scarf means “I stand with Planned Parenthood.”
What are you thinking? The Smoke of Satan has entered your church ..
Shame on this church and the evil priests who insisted on this evil presentation to be held on church property.
Again, I see that my punctuation was changed, in my above post– my exclamation points (!) were all changed to periods(.)!! I was very upset after reading this shocking article! Don’t know exactly what to do– but I guess I will have to figure out a different kind of writing style, if I want to submit a post! I was so hopping mad at Bp. Cantu, after reading his congratulations to his new Abp. Mitty high school president, right on the front page of his diocesan website! Why does he even bother to attend USCCB convocations?? He totally ignores and violates everything they say they stand for! Hypocrites! (OK, I guess those exclamation points will get changed to periods, too!!)
I was upset with both Bp. Cantu and the priests of the above church, who refused to stop that presentation given by Rubio! Our Church has way too much “bad news!” Can’t do anything about it, though– except give it all to God, in prayer.
If a priest knows and allows a person to speak an intrinsic evil on church property, would the priest be committing a mortal sin?
Yes, and he commits a sin more grave by allowing someone to promote an agenda contrary to the salvation of souls- his first priority.
And where was the bishop? Probably out congratulating Biden, instead of shepherding his diocese.
I am seriously considering going to an orthodox church with transubstantiation and teachings faithful to Jesus Christ- the Holy Trinity.
