Marcellino Iasenzaniro, Edizioni Padre Pio da Pietrelcina, Our Lady of Grace Capuchin Friary, San Giovanni Rotundo, Italy- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -A short prayer to become a spiritual child of Padre Pio. Dear Padre Pio. I recall to mind your promise to Jesus: . Unless you stayed tuned to Christian news outlets, you may never have known that it happened, for it remains, as in years past, largely unreported in the secular media. A large number of the participants are young people whose wisdom, zeal and vision are truly encouraging for the future of our country. And by no means is this an exclusively 'Catholic' event in the narrow sense of the world. The struggle to overcome the human rights tragedy of our time is a humanitarian, not just a religious, cause. Thank God so many young people are coming to this awareness..? How free are the TV blokes to not report such heavyweight news to the people- -on the people's airwaves? He knew what was coming, and with his formation of the prayer groups he showed us the way to begin to combat that force. Prayer first and foremost. But as a former public relations person, I can tell you that in our age we do want (if not need) the media, as well. The Church knows this- -Pope John Paul II knew well how to engage the media, knowing how important it was in reaching the world. The Vatican and Pope Benedict know it; they have just gone onto YOUTUBE- -to reach the most souls possible with the joyous message of Christianity. Of course the media grabbed hold of this. It was quite a scene, a rally, one might say, and word spread; and instead of a Communist takeover of the south, the Christian Democrats won the election of delegates to the Italian Assembly. The Communists blamed Padre Pio for their loss, and Padre Pio was actually attributed with winning the election for the Christian Democrats. The brigade of prayer, the brigade of personal evangelizing, and the brigade of action. TV is mostly a wasteland, but to ignore the news media with its still powerful sway over many millions, is simply to put one's head in the sand; to ignore the media is the same as a General about to face a great battle and not bothering to determine where the enemy is and what they're up to. Then what are all these passionately caring people of March for Life and other pro- life organizations marching for? They are trying to reach millions of hearts and minds (as the media can) of those who are still in the dark, who are still lost in the labyrinth of deceptive arguments and reasoning that abortion is a woman's right. They are trying to save babies! And to do it WIDELY, they seek the news media. But their voices are not heard because most of the media do not want them to be heard. They are cutting Pro- life out of the mainstream, and conveying a world without Christianity, which all seems very natural to people who are not aware of . And so I stay plugged- in selectively and watch how certain stories are omitted by the mediamen. Referring to the Obama statement about abortion and the upcoming FOCA vote, she said, . Such a presence that it forces the news media to see us. Whoever can, must help build a groundswell of that presence that can't be ignored, by just showing up or emailing/writing the networks- -all Catholics/ Christians/any religion or non- religion. I'm committed to writing, and I'm always at my desk, keeping my focus and concentration, pursuing my own mission, or so I thought! But I want to pursue this also wherever I can. Pavone suggested we contact Pro- life organizations from time to time via the internet to see what they're up to. Maybe there'll be something in which we can participate- -join a presence. And it is the media's responsibility to inform the people of various viewpoints that could affect them. A quick search brought me to the website of the United Church of Christ at.
