Single Parents To be faced with all the responsibilities of parenting by yourself is a challenge that touches the very core of your life.  We bishops express our solidarity with you.  We urge all parishes and Christian communities to welcome you, to help you find what you need for a good family life, and to offer the loving friendship that is a mark of our Christian tradition.   U.S. Bishops, Follow the Way of Love, 1994, p. 27.
