Pastoral letter on Assisted Suicide Bill

Pastoral letter on Assisted Suicide Bill

Please find a copy of Archbishop Mark’s Pastoral Letter on the upcoming Assisted Suicide Bill below. This will also be read out at our masses.  

Archbishop Mark Pastoral Letter (pdf)

Oppose assisted suicide - unite in prayer and compassionate action to oppose assisted suicide. 
Attempts are being made in parliament to legalise assisted suicide - so-called assisted dying. This would undermine the sanctity and dignity of human life.

A video and audio version are also available below (a transcript is available on the Archdiocese website).
