Cardinal DiNardo Asks Justices to Protect the Unborn at Red Mass


Six Supreme Court justices, Vice President Joe Biden, and two Cabinet members were among the dozens of other judges and Washington public officials at yesterday's Red Mass at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington.

During Galveston-Houston, Texas,Cardinal Daniel DiNardo's homily, which can be read in full here, he called for lawyers to be a voice for all of their clients, including those not yet born.

"They are poor and wealthy, confused and lucid, polite and impolited," said Cardinal DiNardo. "In some cases, the clients are voiceless, for they lack influence; in others they are literally voiceless, not yet with tongues and even without names, and require our most careful attention and radical support."
