Dear Friend,



Our Catholic Action Insight series this month once again welcomes our patron, Raymond Cardinal Burke, in a wide-ranging discussion on some critical issues facing our Church today and what the committed Catholic’s response should be to them.



Catholic Action Founder, Thomas McKenna, speaks with His Eminence about certain current issues of social and political importance as well as matters of eternal importance for the Church that affect the mission of saving souls.

Take a privileged moment to this listen to their discussions that will enliven your faith and strengthen your resolve to “fight the good fight” in these troubling times. Among other pearls of wisdom in this video, His Eminence offers these sober insights about various topics: 



- The State of California’s recent radical anti-life constitutional amendment which enshrined abortion as a fundamental right: “This is a complete repudiation of the very concept of law.” “Truly apocalyptic.”

- The loss of belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist among Catholics: “We can’t presume anything anymore about the Eucharist” and we must restore basic catechesis and Eucharistic discipline of this most fundamental matter of the Church’s life. 

- Restoring the sense of the sacred: “The usus antiquior of the Mass brought with it an inherent sense of the sacred.”

- Concerning the claim that denying communion to scandalous Catholics is “weaponizing the Eucharist”: “Canon 915 has nothing to do with this. ‘To weaponize’ something is to use it for harm, but the Eucharist never harms anyone! The real harm is receiving the Eucharist unworthily.”



And there is much more in this half hour interview that will inspire you and help you to overcome any sense of discouragement that the devil throws at faithful Christians. 



Cardinal Burke finishes the interview with the positive and encouraging spirit that filled the hearts of the saints even in the worst times of the Church: “We must not give way to discouragement!” He notes that despite the challenges, there are also many hopeful signs in the Church: young vocations, strong religious communities, faithful marriages with growing families, etc. Above all, we must remain hopeful and encouraged to continue “fighting the good fight of faith”



Please take a few moments in your busy day and watch this incredibly moving interview, and feel free to forward it to others – to spread the Hope!



Your friend in Christ,







Thomas McKenna
