Most Rev. Daniel F. Walsh
 Bishop of Santa Rosa

“It was so good to receive your letter and to reflect on the wonderful work that you have been doing through the Nurturing Network.  Surely this effort has brought much comfort and joy to many troubled souls.  I encourage you to continue in your great apostolate so that the voice of faith and reason can proclaim the pro-life message that we both revere.

 I just finished reading your article, “When Being Right Is Not Enough.” I congratulate you on this fine work which offers an excellent and direct response to how we can develop a civilization of love.  I hope it receives wide use.”
