CWN Editor's Note: In an open letter to “the faithful priests of the Church in Germany,” dated Palm Sunday, Cardinal Raymond Burke wrote:

At times such as these, when even those who are Bishops betray the Apostolic Tradition, faithful Bishops, priests, consecrated persons, and lay faithful will necessarily suffer greatly precisely because of their fidelity.

The American cardinal encouraged German priests to adhere to the truths of the faith, promising them his prayerful support. He said: “The faithful have never needed more than today priests who announce to them the truth, who bring them Christ, above all, in the Sacraments, and who guide and govern them in the way of Christ.”
