Journal Club – Thank You!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Journal Club at St. Bernard’s on February 26th! We had a great, and lively(!), discussion.
We are hoping host Journal Club 3-4 times yearly. We will be looking for people to choose articles and lead the discussion. If you’re interested, please let us know and we’d be happy to provide any assistance you’d like (e.g., choosing an article, preparing discussion points, etc.).
Triumph of the Heart – Movie Screening
Please join Saint Michael’s Family Protection Institute and Restore Health and Wellness for a screening of an amazing movie about St. Maximilian Kolbe! We think you’ll love Triumph of the Heart!
Seating is limited, so register soon!
Also make sure to check out SMFPI and Restore Health and Wellness. They’re doing great work and need the support of our community!

COVID Vaccine Discussion at St. Bernard’s
The Guild would like to thank the Diocese of Rochester’s Life Issues office, St. Bernard’s, most of all, Fr. Tad Pacholczyk for a wonderful presentation and lively discussion last Wednesday!
Fr. Tad did a masterful job framing both the scientific and moral issues related to COVID vaccines. He was also extremely generous with this time, answering questions and engaging in discussion with the audience (both those in-person and joining remotely) late into the evening.
Thank you also to the many people who joined us for this talk. We were very happy to see many of you in person and were also gratified to see so much interest from those joining remotely!
If you haven’t already, please check out the National Catholic Bioethics Center’s website. In particular, keep in mind that if you ever find yourself in an ethically difficult bind, you can Ask a Question 24/7 and an ethicist will help you find the path that is true to Catholic moral teaching in an ever more challenging world!
Fr. Tad at St. Bernard’s
Just a reminder that Fr. Pacholczyk will be at St. Bernard’s on Wednesday, July 28…LIVE AND IN-PERSON!
Please go here to sign up.
This is also an excellent opportunity to plug the NCBC’s outstanding consultation service. If ever you face an ethically challenging situation in the world of healthcare (whether as a healthcare professional or as a patient) they have a variety of ways to get help. Check them out here!
