Dear Friend,

There is a significant interest with Cardinal Burke’s newly published book, Deny Holy Communion? that has spread through the Christian world.

Mark A. Kellner, a reporter for the Washington Times interviewed me for an article he was writing: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/mar/8/lay-catholics-campaign-deny-communion-pro-abortion/

Shortly after that, I was interviewed on KZIM Radio in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.

Religion News discussed the book in part of an article: https://religionnews.com/2023/03/13/the-double-effect-of-men-behaving-badly/  

Charlie Butts, a reporter from American Family News interviewed me live on their radio network, which has 179 radio stations in 31 states.  Another 100 entities carry their newscasts. Then, an article was published online this week: https://afn.net/church/2023/03/21/catholic-group-wants-dialogue-with-pro-abortion-politicians/ A survey was included in the article that states: Should bishops and priests in the U.S. deny communion to pro-abortion Catholic politicians? 68.92% said absolutely, no exceptions. 22.49% said yes, but most won’t do it. 6.23% said no, it’s between the person and God. 1.33% answered unsure and 1.03% said no – it makes it political. Over 91% of those surveyed answered that Catholic politicians should be denied Holy Communion. 

The clergy response has been mainly positive with correspondence from cardinals, bishops, vicar generals, priests and deacons.

You, as faithful members of the laity, can spread the word about the book. Ask your pastor and all priests and deacons at your parish, as well as all members of the clergy that you know, if they have received their copy of Deny Holy Communion?.

If they have not, please email me their names and addresses.  

It is critical that every single priest and deacon receive a copy. This book provides a precise and thorough explanation of the Catholic Church’s charitable and pastoral response to the widespread confusion regarding worthy reception of the Holy Eucharist. His Eminence’s writing of each chapter is crystal clear and easy to comprehend. 

If you’re interested in obtaining your own copy of Why Deny Communion?, take a moment to visit our special book and donations page:

Sponsor a copy (or copies) for a seminarian. The most important and sacred function of their life as a future priest will be the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Please help us send this book to seminarians in the US, Puerto Rico and Rome.

Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
