Cardinal Burke for Human Life International
I just received the following in an email from Human Life International, a really great Catholic pro-life group.
Cardinal Burke is a staunch defender
of the Church's pro-life and pro-family teachings, and has been great friend to
HLI---especially HLI's Rome office. HLI thanks Cardinal Burke for his years
of service in the Vatican, and wishes him many blessings in his new assignment!
This letter from Cardinal Burke was
written shortly before his reassignment:
Dear Brothers and Sisters in
Christ,
As Christians today, we find
ourselves in a completely secularized society marked by violence and death and
by a relativism which has generated profound confusion and outright error
regarding the most fundamental truths of the moral law.

The sanctity of human life, the
understanding of marriage as the lifelong and faithful union between one man
and one woman, and the role of the family as the first cell of society and the
Church have suffered very much in the present culture of death.
Human Life International exists to
promote and to defend the sanctity of human life, the understanding of marriage
and the rule of the family according to the divine natural and revealed moral
law, and, in this manner, to help to transform our society from a culture of
death to a culture of life. Human Life International works throughout the
world, in over 80 countries, to proclaim the beauty of the Gospel of Life to
all peoples and to all nations.
I encourage you to give strong support for the most important work of Human Life International. Please support the mission of Human Life International, above all, with your prayers. The mission of Human Life International depends on the gifts of donors, and I ask you please to be generous also in your financial support of Human Life International. May God reward you!
Invoking God's blessing upon you and your home, while confiding your intentions to the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Joseph, I remain
