There are some very tiresome reviews of who the Cardinal was, and what he meant to the Church too often in political language. To my mind those authors who evaluate a man such as Martini in this manner does not abide with the Gospel and faith.<\/p>\n The letter of Father Carrón acknowledges the fact that Communion and Liberation has significantly neglected<\/u> the various opportunities of collaboration with Cardinal Martini that presented themselves over the years. This admission to members of CL should help all of us to reassess how we live and breathe in our given ecclesial context. This is a serious point that we can’t pass off to circumstance. That is to say, we who claim to be faithful members of CL need to work more diligently with the Diocesan Ordinary “in giving reasons for our hope” in concrete ways so that we are witnesses as the Servant of God Pope Paul VI said (cf. the letter).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The President of the Fraternity of Communion and Liberation, Father Carrón’s, said the following in tribute to Carlo Maria Cardinal Martini in a September 4th editorial in Corriere della Sera: “And like Archbishop Montini, who initially confessed that he did not understand Fr.

\nFr. Giussani’s method, though he did see its fruits, Cardinal Martini also
\nencouraged us to go forward. I am still moved by the words that he addressed to
\nFr. Giussani in 1995, during a meeting of priests, when he thanked ‘the Lord,
\nwho gave Msgr. Giussani this gift for continually re-expressing the core of
\nChristianity. ‘Every time that you talk, you always return to this core, which
\nis the Incarnation, and – in a thousand different ways – you propose it again.'”![\"Enhanced](\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_e.png?x-id=e331e7a3-1c82-438a-997c-ffc01cb5de76\")
