September Catholic Action Report

The Office of the New York State Catholic Action Chairperson has been hard at work regarding the unfortunate events that have taken place regarding the desecration of statues outside of our Catholic churches in the diocese of Brooklyn and Queens and the Archdiocese of New York.  

I have written numerous press releases calling on Governor Andrew  Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio on calling out these actions for what they are, BIAS  incidents against the Catholic Church.  Thus far, we have received no reaction from either the Governor’s office or the Mayor’s office.  We did receive a statement of support from NYS Assemblyman Colin Schmitt.  Thank you Assemblyman Schmitt.

In addition, I have written two articles for the website regarding the Feast of the Assumption (August 15th) and the Feast of Our Lady of Knock (August 17th).  Further articles will be forthcoming.

Brothers, I would ask that if you see something that we should get involved in, please contact me at 845-300-2930 or via email: russe340@aol.com.

You and your family are in my daily prayers!

Peace! 

Jim Russell
