From the foreword by Roger Cardinal Mahony Archbishop of Los Angeles"This collection . . . provides a record of some of the best thinking about the Catholic Church in America in the post-Vatican II era. A great achievement." Robert Schreiter, C.PP.S. Founding Director The Cardinal Bernardin Center for Theology and Ministry"Joseph Cardinal Bernardin was a peerless teacher of the Catholic faith. These documents are an illustration of the range of his pastoral service to the mission of the truth. I was privileged to be his auxiliary bishop during that period when he composed most of these documents. I remember with respect how he always approached his office of teacher with the greatest care. These documents shed light on both his spiritual wisdom as well as his prudent insight into the life of the Church." Wilton D. Gregory Bishop of Belleville
