Bishop Jenky Needs to March in Peoria
The Peoria Catholic Post has a lead article this week that reports that Bishop Daniel Jenky is going to Washington D.C. to march for a pro-life culture in the United States.
"Bishop Daniel R. Jenky, CSC, will join hundreds of representatives from the Diocese of Peoria and tens of thousands of other participants at the national March for Life and supporting events this week in Washington, D.C.
“This year especially, I thought it was necessary to witness in Washington, D.C., to the Gospel of Life,” Bishop Jenky told The Catholic Post, noting the Jan. 22 march recalling the 36th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decisions legalizing abortion comes just days after President-elect Barack Obama is inaugurated.
“The election of the new president is an occasion that I believe is going to ask of the church to redouble our pro-life efforts,” he said.
I would suggest that Bishop Jenky "redouble" his efforts right here in Peoria.
Why shouldn't Bishop Jenky march with hundreds of central Illinois pro-life supporters at OSF-SFMC against OSF's artificial contraceptive policy that the Diocese helped create and seems to support? This OSF policy is definitely not pro-life. My brother and I would march with Bishop Jenky regarding this issue. He has our support regarding this.

Sadly, I don't think that this will happen. Bishop Jenky will not do anything to publicly humiliate OSF. He owes OSF too much.
And so off to Washington D.C he goes.
