I was overjoyed as soon as I received the news that you are among the new Cardinals that Pope Benedict XVI will create in the Concistory of March. I was lucky to find out that I can send you my greetings through this email address.

Your Excellency:

Greetings of peace!

In behalf of the Executive Committee of Theological Centrum
I would like to convey our best wishes on the occasion of your
appointment by Pope Benedict XVI to the Cardinalate.

With joy we renew our pledge of the support of our prayers.
We always remember what you asked us to pray for in your first address as Archbishop of Manila: that you enjoy further physical health, clarity of vision, the purification of your values and always doing what God wants you -wants us- to do.

May the Holy Spirit continue to fill you with wisdom and
strength and may you never lack his consolation as you guide us along
the vision of the Archdiocese of Manila and strengthen us to face the
greater challenges of our nation.

We humbly ask for your prayers and your paternal blessing.

I am seminarian Christian Jesse Taliping of Colegio Eclesiastico Internacional Bidasoa Spain, where Cardenal Rosales had been. I greet him heartily and I pray for him everyday.

Your Eminence,
Peace!
I wish to extend my warmest felicitations on your election as Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church.

I, with the clergy, religious and lay faithful of the Diocese of San Jose, Nueva Ecija, join the people of God in the Archdiocese of Manila in thanking the Lord for this joyful occasion. May this time of rejoicing and gladness be another opportunity to proclaim the goodness of the Lord.

My prayer is for Your Eminence’s greater spiritual strength in carrying out your Ministry, and for the local Church to be more enthusiastic in journeying with their Shepherd.

Most Rev. Mylo Hubert C. Vergara, D.D.
Bishop, Diocese of San Jose, Nueva Ecija

Greetings, Your Eminence and congratulations from our family for allowing God's will for you to become Prince of the Church in the Philippines. Two years ago, On Jan. 22, 2004, I wrote to you in behalf of my ailing father, Doy Laurel. I had already addressed you as Cardinal Rosales, prophetic it was. We pray that the Lord pours forth upon you this day an overwhelming measure of His abundant grace to overflowing, to help bring our people closer to God in thought, word and deed. You will always be in our daily masses Your Eminence. God is glorified through you.

We have never ceased to pray for you as you have always wished. May the Good Shepherd guide your heart, clear you vision, and inspire your wisdom all the more in the shepherding of the Archdiocese of Manila as you receive from the Lord the red cap of courage and the red sash of witnessing. Mahal po namin kayo. We're so proud of you.
