When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine. (And) Jesus said to her, Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come. His mother said to the servers, Do whatever he tells you. Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus told them, Fill the jars with water. So they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter. So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now. Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him. -The 2nd Luminous Mystery

Partial Birth Abortion Ban

Partial Birth Abortion Ban
Question from Anonymous on 6/23/2008:

Dear Judie,

I am from the State of Michigan, where our Governor once again vetoed the bill that would end the act of partial birth abortion. Besides praying, what can we do to help our governor see the light. She is so far left yet calls herself Catholic. How can a Christian be different in the world then they are in the church? We are called to be Christians at every moment of our lives. I really don't understand.

Dear Anonymous

Thanks for your comments on Governor Granholm. At American Life League we have asked Cardinal Maida and the Bishops of Michigan to take a definitive position in public about the Governor but so far they have not, and this contributes even more to the confusion and frustration that people like you are experiencing. It is indeed sad, and of course, I encourage you to pray for her and also to let her know that you are praying and why.

Perhaps at some point she will read a heartfelt letter from someone who is agonizing over her scandalous behavior and she will repent of her support for aborting children.

God be with you,

Judie Brown
