Add Your Prayers to a Spiritual Bouquet <[link removed]> For Cardinal Burke’s Priestly Anniversary and Birthday

<[link removed]?>

Dear Friend, 

I want you to know the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul is a momentous occasion for His Eminence, Raymond Cardinal Burke.

That feast day, on June 29, also coincides with the 49th anniversary of Cardinal Burke’s priestly ordination and the 29th anniversary of his consecration as a bishop!

Then, on June 30, His Eminence will celebrate his 76th birthday. 

For this reason, I would like to invite you to participate in prayer as we prepare a very special gift for our beloved and faithful shepherd of the Church.

As an outward sign of your appreciation for his spiritual support and inspiring leadership in promoting Catholic orthodoxy, I invite you to join with me in presenting His Eminence with a spiritual bouquet of prayers and sacrifices thanking him for his fidelity to Holy Mother Church and supporting him in his great efforts!

Add Your Prayerful Gift to Cardinal Burke’s Spiritual Bouquet! <[link removed]>

I am personally grateful that His Eminence has been acting in the person of Christ and giving us the Holy Eucharist for 49 years now. When we give our spiritual gift to Cardinal Burke, we can think of the words of St. Francis de Sales, who compares a bee gathering nectar to bring to the hive, to a priest carrying the Eucharist to us, the faithful:

“O my child, bethink you that just as the bee, having gathered heaven's dew and earth's sweetest juices from amid the flowers, carries it to her hive; so the Priest, having taken the Savior, God's Own Son, Who came down from Heaven, the Son of Mary, Who sprang up as earth's choicest flower, from the Altar, feeds you with that Bread of Sweetness and of all delight.”

Please join with me to unite our prayers in this spiritual bouquet as if we are sending a fragrant spray of flowers heavenward, each intertwined with a Holy Mass intention, a Holy Rosary, a Chaplet of Divine Mercy, an hour of Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament or a prayer or meaningful sacrifice of your choice.

Sincerely yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
