Adoptive parents in America and elsewhere \n want more work to be done with the kids so that their physical, social, and psychological health will be better \n at the time they are adopted. It is hoped that adoptive parents themselves will contribute toward the program. \n It will take us a little while to get it organized. And we’ll let you know what is happening. Meanwhile \n we’ve had several adoptive couples coming to mass on Sunday. It is fun to see their joy as the court awards a \n child to them.","bbox":{"left":0.070992,"top":0.140682,"width":0.8612599999999999,"height":0.094391}},{"text":"I heard this story from one of the pastors: A parishioner with several children was pregnant, and had some \n complications, so she was in the hospital for tests and a check-up. After several days an old doctor came to \n her at night and said, “Dear, are you reading what medicines the doctor is giving you?” “No, why should I?” \n “If I were you I’d read those packages before I took them!” Being forewarned she read and found out that \n the doctor was setting her up for a miscarriage! Naturally, she stopped the medicine and went home. That is \n socialized medicine, where the doctor makes decisions about who lives and who dies. I told the pastor to \n find out the contact information for that old doctor, and I’d find some way to acknowledge that she saved a \n baby’s life.","bbox":{"left":0.070992,"top":0.251846,"width":0.8561940000000001,"height":0.12688500000000003}},{"text":"We are trying to gear up to open the Newman Center at the new Far-Eastern Federal University, with its \n 100,000 students to be opened in 2014.
