Dear Friend,



Yesterday evening, Cardinal Burke gave a resounding homily, filled with pearls of wisdom to meditate upon, regarding the Mother of God.  Here are a couple of quotes:



“Imploring the intercession of the Mother of God, we discover ever anew that our true inheritance is the Lord and that our lasting abode is in the full assembly of the saints.”



“We turn to the Mother of God in prayer, she invites us to imitate her obedience so that Our Lord may purify our hearts of the wrong affections which lead us into sin and death and may enflame our hearts with the love of His law, which leads us into virtue and everlasting life.”



Speaking about the world we live in, Cardinal Burke said:



“We live in most troubled times, throughout the world and even in the within the church, that pervasive confusion and error, about the most fundamental truths, about the law which God has written upon every human heart, tempt us to discouragement and even to abandon hope.  But Our Lady draws us to herself, in order that she, in turn may lead us, to our only source of hope, her Divine Son.  Above all, His real presence in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.  We cannot fight and win the fierce spiritual battles of our time by means of our own cleverness and strength.  Christ, our Eucharistic Lord, however, is with us.  He alone can conquer sin in us.  On the last day, He will restore us and all creation through God Our Father to eternal glory.”



His Eminence went on to speak about the Chinese government’s relentless persecution of the faithful Catholics in China, who are loyal to the Seat of Peter, namely those in the underground Roman Catholic Church, and expressed his solidarity toward them.



Cardinal Burke went on to say that we have witnessed the utter disdain of the Communist Government of China, regarding the Catholic Church, without any respect for the Office of St. Peter and openly and blazingly rejects any form of religion. 



During the remainder of the homily, His Eminence spoke about the heroic life of Cardinal Kung, his nephew Joseph, who founded the Cardinal Kung Foundation and his death earlier this year. The late Joseph Kung relentlessly worked for the Cause for Sainthood for his uncle and tirelessly helped the Roman Catholics in the underground church. His wife, Agnes, now leads the foundation.



I encourage everyone to listen to the homily, which begins at: 01:01:54.
