CARDINAL MARTINI: FAITHFUL SERVANT AND DISTINGUISHED PASTOR
Vatican City, 1 September 2012 (VIS) - Today Benedict XVI sent a telegram of
condolence to Cardinal Angelo Scola, Archbishop of Milan, Italy, on the death
yesterday of Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, S.J., archbishop emeritus of that
diocese, at 85 years
of age.
"I received with sorrow", the Pope writes, "news of the death of Cardinal
Carlo Maria Martini, after a long illness that he lived with serenity of
spirit and complete trust in the Lord's will. I wish to express, both to the
diocesan community as well as
the family members of the lamented cardinal, my deepest sharing in their
sorrow, recalling affectionately this beloved brother who so generously served
the Gospel and the Church. I recall with gratitude his intense apostolic work
extended as religious
dedication, this spiritual son of St. Ignatius, experienced teacher,
accredited Biblicist, and appreciated rector of the Pontifical Gregorian
University and the Pontifical Biblical Institute as well as caring and wise
archbishop of this Ambrosian
archdiocese. Also brought to mind is his competent and fervent service given
to the Word of God, opening the treasures of Sacred Scripture more and more to
the ecclesial community, especially through his promotion of 'lectio divina'.
I l
ift
fervent prayers to the Lord that, through the intercession of the Blessed
Virgin Mary, He may welcome this faithful servant and distinguished pastor to
the heavenly Jerusalem and I wholeheartedly impart the consolations of
apostolic blessing to all
those who mourn his loss".
Likewise, Cardinal Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone sent a telegram to
Cardinal Scola expressing, in his name, in that of the secretariat of state,
and in that of the entire Roman Curia, deepest condolences on the death of the
cardinal who "witnessed
and taught the primacy of the spiritual life and, at the same time, the
attentive listening to the human being in its various existential and social
conditions". The secretary of state recalled Cardinal Martini as an "expert
and passionate scholar of
Sacred Scripture, who knew how to teach it to and meditate upon it with all
those who make up the people of God and all persons in search of truth".
