Nebraska Bishop urges Sacred Heart Novena participation to oppose pro-abortion amendment on ballot
Caroline MolloyBishop James Conley of the Diocese of Lincoln is urging Nebraska residents to pray and vote against an upcoming pro-abortion amendment on the November ballot. He described the amendment as “dangerous and deceptive.”
Bishop Conley’s message, shared in a September 27 X post, cited the start of Respect Life Month in October and the beginning of early voting in Nebraska as particular reasons for his call to action against the “Protect the Right to Abortion” amendment, or Initiative 439.
The Bishop called on the faithful to use the “powerful weapons” at their disposal: prayer and the right to vote. In particular, Bishop Conley requested participation in the Sacred Heart Novena, which begins on Tuesday, October 1.
