The Luminous Moment of Love

BY THE LATE FR. RICHARD JOHN NEUHAUS

Ours is a movement of love, and if it ever stops being that, it will cease to claim our commitment. It is a movement of love for God, and of love for the neighbor whom others would exclude from the community of caring and concern.

“Seldom in human history have so many done so much for so long out of no rational reason other than the relentless imperative of love. And when you are weary of the struggle-when you’re tempted to despair-remember that to us has been given the gift, and with the gift the obligation of sustaining, amidst the darkness, the luminous moment of love that is the pro-life cause.
