Speak Up NOW Against Physician Assisted Suicide in New Jersey

Assembly Bill A1504 “Aid in Dying for the Terminally Ill Act”  (Commonly referred to as “Physician Assisted Suicide” ) (sponsored by Assemblyman John J. Burzichelli, who represents the 3^rd Legislative District in South Jersey) has recently passed through the NJ State Assembly Judiciary Committee.  

This Bill has unfortunately gotten much support and has great potential to become law if passed by the Legislature, due to the Governor’s office being receptive to sign such a law.  Assembly Bill A1504 would permit people with terminal illnesses to take their own lives, making New Jersey one of seven states that have legalized the practice of physician-assisted suicide. This practice leaves those suffering from depression, physical and mental disabilities, and those on the economic and social fringes most vulnerable and at risk to be the victims of this law.    

As Catholics, we are called upon to advocate for and defend life in all its’ stages including the end of life - and preserve the rights and dignity of our most vulnerable citizens.  We must speak up against Bill A1504 on medical, social, economic, and ethical grounds, in addition to the moral grounds on which we find this Bill unacceptable.     

Now is the time to contact your NJ state assemblymen, state senators, and other elected officials, and voice your opposition to Assembly Bill A1504 – the legalization of “Physician Assisted Suicide”.  This Bill needs to be stopped NOW, before it goes any further.

A Message from Our Pastor - Msgr. Louis Marucci

Welcome to St. Andrew the Apostle Parish in Gibbsboro / Voorhees! It is my profound hope and prayer that you will find a spiritual home here at St. Andrews. We are a faith community that has continued to grow in size, diversity, and vibrancy as we welcome new members to our parish family. I invite you and encourage you to become an active participant in the life of this very vibrant and dynamic parish.  Our vitality is expressed by our desire to provide all of our members an opportunity to worship and pray together, to grow in our Catholic faith, to be nourished and fed spiritually by Word and Sacrament, and to experience the support and strength that can only be found in Christ-centered fellowship and friendship. 

 As Christian disciples, we are called to use our God-given gifts and talents for the building up of the Body of Christ, the church.  We seek to be a church where everyone can feel welcome and anyone can make a difference.  As you review our website, it is my profound hope that you will gain a sense of all of the possibilities open to you to live a life of true Christian discipleship, as evidenced by our love of Jesus Christ and the many opportunities for ministry in love and service to each other.  

 I look forward to seeing you at Mass each week as we grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ and each other and work together to build the Kingdom of God.

With a loving and grateful heart,
Rev. Msgr. Louis A. Marucci, D.Min.
