“James Likoudis was a courageous defender of the faith and a gentle ‘man of the Church’. It is praiseworthy that this new Foundation has been established in his honor, and is working to preserve and build upon his remarkable legacy. I support its efforts in promoting his scholarly contributions…May this initiative enrich the Church’s pursuit of Christian unity.”
