October 02, 2011 Message to Mirjana
"Dear children; Also today my motherly heart calls you to prayer, to your personal relationship with God the Father, to the joy of prayer in Him. God the Father is not far away from you and He is not unknown to you. He revealed Himself to you through my Son and gave you Life that is my Son. Therefore, my children, do not give into temptations that want to separate you from God the Father. Pray! Do not attempt to have families and societies without Him. Pray! Pray that your hearts may be flooded with the goodness which comes only from my Son, Who is sincere goodness. Only hearts filled with goodness can comprehend and accept God the Father. I will continue to lead you. In a special way I implore you not to judge your shepherds. My children, are you forgetting that God the Father called them? Pray! Thank you."
Mirjana said: I have never said anything before, but are you aware, brothers and sisters, that the Mother of God was with us? Each of us should ask himself: "Are you worthy of this?" I am saying this because it is difficult for me to see Her (Our Lady) in pain, because each of us is seeking a miracle, but does not want to work a miracle in himself.

Supreme Court says “No” to Mexican Roe v. Wade, State Personhood Amendment Upheld
Supreme Court says "No" to Mexican Roe v. Wade, State Personhood Amendment Upheld
Mexico City, Mexico — The Supreme Court of Mexico ruled on Wednesday to uphold the state constitutional personhood amendment of Baja California. A similar decision in the San Luis Potosi case is expected. The Court's most recent appointee, Justice Jorge Mario Pardo Rebolledo, sided with three members of the Court to reject an Action for Unconstitutionality submitted against the measures. Pardo Rebolledo was appointed last February and had yet to rule in an abortion case. His vote ensures that the Court will not reach the supermajority necessary to overturn the amendment.
"Pardo Rebolledo, as well as Justices Salvador Aguirre, Margarita Luna, and Guillermo Ortiz have our gratitude," said Personhood USA Legal Analyst Gualberto Garcia Jones, J.D. "Thousands of Mexican girls and boys will, one day, be able to thank them personally for defending their very right to exist."
In total, eighteen states have passed measures enshrining into law full personhood protections for preborn children. The amendments were passed in reaction to the legalization of abortion in Mexico City in 2009. The state measures received the support of 88% of the members of state legislatures including members of every major political party such as PAN, PRI, and PRD.
On September 19th, 50 nonprofit organizations took out a full-page ad in the largest newspaper in Mexico, El Universal, expressing their concern and opposition to any actions which would overturn the personhood amendments. On September 22nd, three dozen state and federal legislators took out a similar ad in El Universal urging the Mexican Supreme Court to respect the democratic process. Personhood USA joined the organizations, legislators, and millions of Mexican citizens in support of the amendments.
The executive branch of Mexico also weighed in on the developments this week. President Felipe Calderon submitted to the Senate a withdrawal of reservation to the first paragraph of Article 4 of the American Convention on Human Rights. Mexico entered into the treaty in 1981, but interpreted the provision the same year so that it would not oblige the country to protect life from conception.
"Mexico has recognized human rights enshrined in international treaties such as the American Convention of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, among them the right to life, which is protected by our legislation, both federal and local," read Calderon's statement. "Mexico endorses a commitment to the right to life as protected by Mexican law."
First Lady Margarita Zavala wrote an editorial this week endorsing the personhood measures. "I am a woman and a lawyer who has fought for the rights of women, and I am convinced that the rights of women do not override other rights and therefore need not be the cause of invalidating the state reforms," she said.
"Today, the rule of law was victorious in Mexico. Unlike the United States, Mexican states are free from judicial tyranny and the people retain the right of self-determination," continued Garcia Jones. "The Mexican people recognize that every human being is a person, and that all persons are inherently possessed of the right to life. We commit to work towards the day when this truth is realized for all children in Mexico, the United States, and around the globe."
Personhood USA is a grassroots Christian organization founded to establish personhood efforts across America to create protection for every child by love and by law. Personhood USA is committed to assisting and supporting Personhood Legislation and Constitutional Amendments and building local pro-life organizations through raising awareness of the personhood of the pre-born.

Get the CatholicVote App!

Dear CV Friend,
We've selected another winner in our iPhone 5 Sweepstakes.
But today we're also announcing a new CV tool that's free for everyone!
We're excited to launch the CatholicVote App, available for FREE for both the Android and the iPhone.
To create a beautiful and wonderful app, CatholicVote partnered with Little i Apps, the brains behind the Catholic Confession App – the first App ever to receive an Imprimatur from the Church.
With the CatholicVote app, you can easily look up your Representative in Congress as well as your two U.S. Senators. You can access their phone number and address, along with their Facebook, Twitter and YouTube pages too!
With just one-click, all their contact information will be added to your phone address book. The app will remember your Representative or Senator so you can respond to future CV Action Alerts with a single click -- anywhere!
This is Catholic activism for the 21st Century. Right in your hands.
Download the CatholicVote App from iTunes or from the Android Market.
Even if you don't have a smartphone, you can understand why CatholicVote is deploying this new technology. By December, one in two Americans will have a smartphone. And a Pew Research survey this June found that one in four smartphone users (or 22 million!) actually prefer to connect to the Internet from their smartphone instead of a laptop or desktop computer.
Chip in to our anniversary campaign -- you could win a new iPhone!
Both Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI have called on Catholics to be a part of the New Evangelization. They have implored us to use new technologies to share the hope that is in us.
Last year, Pope Benedict XVI said:"Without fear we must set sail on the digital sea facing into the deep with the same passion that has governed the ship of the Church for two thousand years. Rather than for, albeit necessary, technical resources, we want to qualify ourselves by living in the digital world with a believer's heart, helping to give a soul to the Internet's incessant flow of communication."
These words summarize well the vision of CatholicVote. In just our third year, CatholicVote continues its mission to evangelize life, liberty and family in the Digital Age.
Thank you for your prayers and support of CatholicVote during our Anniversary Week.
The latest winner of our free iPhone giveway is Frank T. of Aurora, CO! Congrats to Frank. We hope he uses his new phone to test out our CatholicVote App!
Sincerely,
Brian Burch
President
CatholicVote.org
P.S. We've noticed that the CatholicVote App has a few glitches when used on the iPhone 3. Our team has already submitted the fix to Apple that should be live any moment. When the new update is approved, you will also be able to use the App on your iPad.
If you have any technical issues with the App, contact support@littleiapps.com.
Here's the link again to download the App from iTunes or from the Android Market. You can also reach these links by visiting http://www.littleiapps.com/catholic_vote/
And of course... here is the link to chip in and help us re-fuel for 2012.
