CMA's Annual Educational Conference highlighted on EWTN News!

PHOENIX — For the first time in its nearly 100-year history, the Catholic Medical Association is focusing on how the Eastern Catholic Church’s emphasis on mystery, united with the Western Church’s emphasis on reason, can give a more comprehensive view of human identity and help Western medicine promote human flourishing.

The group’s 95th annual educational conference, held in Phoenix Sept. 10–12, emphasized the early Church Fathers, whose influence was strongest in the East, in order to “promote a more comprehensive view and more respect for the mysteries of human health and disease,” said conference chair Dr. Mary Keen-Kirchoff.

CMA JOINS LEGAL CHALLENGE TO ILLINOIS' ASSISTED SU***DE LAW: CMA announced its decision to enter the legal challenge against the new Illinois' physician assisted su***de law during its 95th Annual Educational Conference, where nearly 700 members gathered over the past few days in Phoenix, Ariz. During his announcement, CMA President Dr. David Hilger said, "The Catholic Medical Association and its members are committed to treating all patients with the love of Christ. We cannot agree to the State’s demand that we help patients end their own lives, in direct violation of our rights of conscience. We are called to accompany rather than abandon patients in their times of greatest need."
