NOW AND AT THE
HOUR OF OUR DEATH
for Catholics on
End-of-Life Issues
At some point every family must deal with issues involving end of life care for a loved one. As Catholics attempt to navigate the myriad medical, ethical, and religious questions that arise, all the while dealing with the grief of an impending death, it can become overwhelming.
In an effort to offer assistance, the New York State Catholic Conference has produced a website that tackles many of the common questions and concerns, offers clarity and compassion, and serves as an education Resource for Catholics nationwide.

Faced with multiple legal claims under the New York State Child Victims Act that exceed its resources to settle or litigate, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester recently filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Attached is Bishop Matano’s Letter to the Faithful concerning Reorganization, which also includes within a detailed Frequently Asked Questions document that explains the filing and the Chapter 11 process.
The letter reads, in part, “This is a very difficult and painful decision. After assessing all reasonable possibilities to satisfy the claims, reorganization is considered the best and fairest course of action for the victims and for the well-being of the Diocese, its parishes, agencies and institutions. We believe this is the only way we can provide just compensation for all who suffered the egregious sin of sexual abuse, while ensuring the continued commitment of the Diocese to the mission of Christ.”
In addition, a special web page has been created with multiple resources, including a video message from the Bishop. Click on the above icon or this link for the special web page - www.dor.org/reorganization
Bishop Matano asks that you pray for the victims and the Diocese as we move forward in this process.
