Hidden Mercy: AIDS, Catholics, and the Untold Stories of Compassion in the Face of Fear
Saturday, March 5 at 7:30 PM - St. Thomas More Catholic Church (Sign up here)
The height of the AIDS crisis in the United States in the 1980s and 1990s left many profound stories that remained untold. Journalist Michael O’Loughlin will speak about his new book, Hidden Mercy: AIDS, Catholics, and the Untold Stories of Compassion in the Face of Fear, as he uncovers the stories of Catholics who at great personal cost chose compassion during the AIDS crisis. O'Loughlin offers a compelling picture of those who responded to human suffering with mercy, offering insights for LGBTQ and other people of faith struggling to find a home in religious communities today.

Last fall, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to pass the so-called Women’s Health Protection Act. This coming Monday, February 28, the Senate will vote on it. Your senators need to hear from you! Among other extreme actions, this most radical abortion bill ever seen would:
- Impose abortion on demand nationwide throughout every stage of pregnancy
- Ban pro-life laws nationally AND in every state and local government
- Force Americans to financially support abortions in the U.S. & abroad
- Likely force health care providers to participate in abortions against their beliefs
- Likely force employers and insurers to cover or pay for abortion
