BRAZILIAN BISHOPS
URGE AID TO NATION
IN PRESENT CRISIS
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
RIO DE JANEIRO — Several
Brazilian Bishops, in various state
ments, have stressed the need for
the closest cooperation on the part
of the Brazilian people with the
Government authorities in the
present world crisis.
The Most Rev. Miguel de Lima
Valverde, Archbishop of Recife,
Pernambuco, and his four suffrag
an Bishops, in a joint letter to
young army conscripts, remind
that “the sad times which have
called these youth to arms are the
result of a neglect of God and His
Law ” “Be faithful to your coun
try and worthy sons of Holy
Church”, the letter adds. “It was
the Church, which, in times past,
kept this vast country from break
ing up and maintained the Faith
alive, ever teaching a sound and
effective patriotism.”
Writing his thanks to Arch
bishop Valverde for the message,
the Brazilian Minister of War stat
ed that such encouragement from
the Bishops is another proof of
the readiness of the Church to
cooperate with the Government in
promoting the public welfare.
In a recent statement, the Most
Rev. Antonio Reis, Bishop of San
ta Maria, said ‘*it behooves every
Brazilian to fight incessantly
against lethal ideologies, be they
called Nazism. Fascism or Bol
shevism.” “The clergy,” he added,
“which always sided with true
patriots in all the decisive hours
of our history—and have often
taken the lead—will be worthy of
their glorious past in this hour of
exceptional gravity.”
