ROYAL, VA — The Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer, STL, president
of Human Life International, (HLI) issued the following
statement today on the death of Cardinal Alfonso López
Trujillo, president of the Pontifical Council for the
Family:
“Today
we mourn the loss of a great friend and leader in the
cause of life and support of the family. Cardinal Alfonso
López Trujillo was a great champion of the unborn
child and family life.
“His
Eminence was a great friend of HLI. We collaborated with
him in translation and publication of the Lexicon
of Ambiguous and Debatable Terms Regarding Family Life
and Ethical Questions, the World Meeting of Families
in Manila and have distributed his document on ‘Family
Values v. Safe Sex’ on all five continents of the
world.
“As
we pray confidently for his eternal rest we also look
forward to his fervent intercession from on high as we
in the Church Militant on earth continue the struggle
for the sacredness of human life and the related issues
Cardinal Trujillo cared so deeply about and fought so
hard for.” |
