Protecting the Most Vulnerable

A Statement from Archbishop Foley Beach on New York’s Recent Legislation
​
Last week, politicians in the State of New York passed legislation enabling the killing of unborn babies throughout all nine months of pregnancy, right up until the moment before birth. A full-term baby can now be killed.  This legislation is a disastrous development for all of us.  One of the foundational responsibilities of the State is to provide physical security to the vulnerable, and none are more vulnerable than babies.  I am profoundly saddened by the blatant disregard for the value of life exhibited by the politicians who have done this and by the evident celebration exhibited in the New York City skyline.  They have not only abdicated their responsibility to protect the vulnerable but have facilitated their destruction and murder. Pray for them, that God by His goodness will lead them to repentance (Romans 2:4).
