Reagan cuts: 'severe'impactCited by Catholic

CharitiesWASHINGTON (NC) - An "impact

study" conducted by the NationalConference of Catholic Charities onthe Reagan administration's budgethas found that the cuts would"severely affect" a number of socialservice programs.

' The NCCC said that preliminary find-ings of its study showed that theproposed cuts would affect thenutritional needs of the elderly, daycare, foster care, counseling andemergency shelter to juveniles, andservices to refugees.

"CLEARLY THE voluntary sector can-not absorb the immediate and drasticincreases in people who will continueto need food, clothing and shelter ifthe budget cuts are enacted," saidMsgr. Lawrence J. Corcoran, NCCCexecutive director.

In mid-March, thex NCCC mailedCathoiic Charities agencies around thecountry a questionnaire seeking thelocal impact of various federal budgetcuts. For each category of cuts, theNCCC asked the local charities officeshow many federal dollars currentlywere being received, how muchprivate money was being received,how many clients were being served,how much federal money would belost due to the cuts and how" manyclients then would have to beeliminated from Catholic Charitiesprograms.

The NCCC said a number of charitiesorganizations responded with fears-that soup kitchens would becomecommon again, and wondered whowould step in to provide services now

Human life? Congress airs issueBy Jim Lackey

WASHINGTON (NC) - Whatpromises to be one of the mostthorough congressional explorationsof the issue of abortion opened inWashington April 23-24 with severaldoctors testifying that conception isthe point at which human life begins.

The hearings were catted by theSenate separation of powers sub-committee to examine a proposal thatCongress reverse the Supreme Court's1971 abortion decision by declaring"that human life shall be deemed tobegin from conception."

But the subcommittee's chairman,Sen. John East (R-N.C), said on thesecond day of hearings that the wholerange of U.S. policy on abortion wouldbe examined."I WOULD HOPE that whatever

happens to (this bill) or whatever hap-pens to a constitutional amendmentor whatever else is down the road thatat least we have been allowed now tobegin a public discussion on a veryvital and critical and important matterof moral and ethical and sociologicalconsequence," said £ast, one of theSenate's crop of freshmenRepublicans.

He said the hearings would resumeabout May 20 and go at least into Juneas the subcommittee considers thestatutory, constitutional, ethical andother implications of the proposedlegislation.

A famed French geneticist, Dr.Jerome Lejeune, led off the parade ofdoctors by declaring that while life has"a very, very long history," every lifehas a "very neat beginning, the

moment of its conception."Continued Lejeune, professor of

fundamental genetics at the MedicalCollege of Paris, "As soon,as the 23

-paternally derived chromosomes areunited, through fertilization, to the 23maternal ones, the full genetic infor-mation necessary and sufficient to ex-press all the inborn information of thenew individual is gathered."

Lejeune and others also commentedthat the successful production of test-tube babies proved that life has itsbeginning during fertilization.

DR. MICHEUNE M. Mathews-Roth,principal research associate in theDepartment of Medicine at theHavana Medical School, cited passagesin several biology and embryologytextbooks to show that life at concep-tion "is universally accepted and

taught at all levels of biologicaleducation."

The only specialist to urge the sub-committee not to accept the positionthat human life begins at conceptionwas Dr. Leon E. Rosenberg, chairmanof the human genetics department atYale University Medical School. Heargued that the establishment of an"actual human life" is more a notion ofphilosophy and religion than it is anotion of science.

While conception is "a critical event"in human reproduction, said Rosen-berg, the fertilized living cell still hasonly the potential for human life.

"To fulfill this potential, the fertilizedegg must travel to the uterus, be im-planted in the uterine wall, and un-dergo millions and millions of cell

German held for murders * > • • • •

MIAMI, Fla. (NC) - HansChrist, a German residing in ElSalvador, was arrested by agen-ts of the Federal Bureau of In-vestigation and charged withthe January murder in SanSalvador of two Americansworking in the land reformprogram.

The 30-year-old man, whohas been held-without bond ina Miami jail sjnce April 15, isaccused of fatally shootinglawyers Michael P. Hammer,42, of Potomac, Md., and MarkPearlman, 26, of Seattle, whowere under contract with theU.S. Agency of InternationalDevelopment (AID) to assistthe Salvadpran governmentjunta in turning large land-

holdings into peasantcooperative farms.

Also killed Jan. 3 at theSheraton Hotel in San Salvador,was Jose Rodolfo Viera, headof the Institute for AgrarianReform. The Salvadoran gover-nment has requested ex-tradition of Christ, along of thatof a Guatemalan identified asAlberto Bolanos on the samecharges.

Hammer, a catholic and agraduate from GeorgetownUniversity, worked for theAmerican Institute of FreeLabor Development, aneducational arm of the CIO-AFL. Bishop Thomas C. Kelly,General secetary of the U.S.Catholic Conference, said at

the time that the killing of thethree men "is another tragicsign that uncontrolled violencepermeates the life of thesociety," in El Salvador.

Witnesses said the assassinentered the hotel in spite ofunusually tight security. Christis identified as a son of JoachimChrist, a textile factory ownerin Santa Tecla, El Salvador,who moved to Guatemala afterhe was held captive twice bystriking workers. A brother ofBolanos, reportedly involved inarms traffic, was killed inDecember near theGuatemalan border. TheBolanos family owns large cof-fee plantations near Santa Ana,El Salvador.

Fr. Greeley Praises teachersNEW YORK (NC) - Father

Andrew W. Greeley, author ofa recent study on minoritystudents in Catholic schools,praised parochial schoolteachers for their ability to helpdisadvantaged black andHispanic students, which publicschools were unable to do.

"It is. something you havebeen doing all along, and havenot known you've been doingit," Father Greeley, asociologist, said at the NationalCatho l i c Educat ionalAssociation (NECA) conventionin New York, April 22.

The "most inpressive con-tribution to liberating the chur-ch in the U.S. is in the Catholicschools. They have had aunique function in liberatingthe poor. If you look at whitepeople you find the same ef-fect. Catholic schools have amagic," said Gather Greeley.

The study by the NationalOpinion Research center,where he directs studies ofAmerican pluralism, showedblack and Hispanic studentsscored significantly higher inacademic studies than did theircounterparts in public schools.

FOR EXAMPLE, HE SAID, theywere "more than twice as likelyto do their homework." The"school effect" apart from theirbackgrounds of racial disadvan-tage, poverty, and np, preyioLis ;

outstanding academic records— was something to be taken"very seriously."

He said that studies showedvariables at work. They were"whether a religious orderowns the school, a positive at-titude by the pupils about thequality of the teaching, and theschool size; To his. surprise, hesaid, the larger the Catholicschools, the larger the "pluses"for disadvantaged blacks andHispanics, by comparison withthe public schools.

"THE BAD NEWS IS THAT wedon't do well with children ofcollege-educated parents. Wedo not nearly so well as thepublic schools at the highschool level."

His study ran into "appalling"negative reaction, he said, par-ticularly from such quarters asErnest Boyer. of the CarnegieFoundation, who accused the

sampling as being "faulty." Thecongresssional Black Caucusstaff members also were criticaland they quickly became "theimplaceable enemy of Catholiceducation."

He said that the National Cen-ter of Educational Statisticswhich contracted the study,under threats that their federalfunds might be withheld, "losttheir nerve" and hastily said hisfindings were invalid.

FATHER GREELY was am-bivalent about tuition taxcredits, because he said they,might mean government con-trols. Criticism of his findingswould probably increase, hetold the teachers.

Even among Catholics, thereis a "self-hatred" and bishopsand laity tend to refuse tobelieve "the spectacularly goodnews about themselves," hesaid.

Catholic schools make the gradeNEW YORK (NC) - If Catholic

educators had doubts that theirschools make a difference, speaker af-ter speaker at the National CatholicEducational Association (NCEA) con-vention quickly sought to dispel them.

"Catholic Education: A World of Dif-ference" was the theme of the April20-23 convention which broughtnearly 20,000 participants to NewYork.

Catholic schools are a "tremendousasset" to the church, William C. Mc-Oeady said and his colleague at theNational Opinion Research Center,Father Andrew Greeley, praised theschools as an asset to minority studen-ts.

The "most impressive contribution toliberating the church in the U.S. is inthe Catholic schools. They have had aunique function in liberating the poor.. . Catholic schools have a magic,"Father Greeley said.

"THE EVIDENCE has shown thatCatholic schools are even more impor-tant than they were in the past, "Mc-Cready said, reporting on a Knights ofColumbus research study on youngCatholics, but he noted a defen-

siveness among Catholic educators."It is time to attack that defen-

siveness in a forthright manner and in-sist that people who feel that theschools are not a good use of churchresources come up with alternatives,"he said.

Defensiveness in the past may havebeen due to declining enrollments andthe exodus of Religious teachers fromthe classroom. Now, however, theenrollment decline has tapered offand officials are observing thatparochial schools are getting a higherpercentage of available Catholicchildren in elementary school age.

Speakers also pointed to new direc-tions for alMay-staffed schools and en-couraged the idea that the parent isthe child's primary educator. The par-tnership of parents and schools is thekey to the survival of Catholic schoolsElinor Ford, professor of education atFordham University, said.

The optimistic mood was under-scored by a collection of facts andfigures from James S. Coleman'srecently-published study "Public andPrivate Schools." That study indicatedthat private schools, including Catholic

schools, produce better outcomes andCatholic schools more closely ap-proximate the "common school" ideal

• of American education.CARDINAL Terence Cooke of New

York told NCEA participants that tuitiontax credits were among the topicsdiscussed when the cardinal called onPresident Reagan at the White HouseApril 17. The convention participantsalso heard a telegram from the Reaganadministration pledging support fortuition tax credits.

Another telegram, from Sen. DanielPatrick Moyninan (D-N.Y.), also ex-pressed support for tax credits forparents who send their children toprivate schools. Moynihan is a sponsorof a tax credit bill.

Jesuit Father Virgil Blum, founder andpresident of the Catholic League forReligious and Civil Rights, was not op-timistic about passage of tuition taxcredit legislation. Organizationsrepresenting public schools have im-pressive political clout and areworking diligently against tax creditsbut Catholic schools have noorganization, he said.

HE CALLED FOR the establishment of

a national organization of privateschool parents and teachers to workpolitically as an interest group.

It should include parents andteachers from Jewish, Protestant, andnon-denominational schools, as wellas Catholics, he said. Moreover, itcould raise an annual $8 millionbudget by adding a dollar to eachchild's tuition bill each semester unlessthe child's parents object, he told theconvention participants.

The increase of non-Catholics,mostly blacks and Hispanics in inner-city Catholic schools, has presentedmany pluses and few minuses to theirprograms, education speakers said.

According to Christian Brother, Ed-ward Phelan, of the College of NewRochelle, New York, the 1980-81NCEA Data Bank Report,showed thatthe non-Catholic population in urbanschools is now 8.1 percent and hasalmost doubled in the last five years.

"Many parents want the benefits ofCatholic educational values, disciplineand academic excellence" as well as

. the religious atmosphere of theschools, Brother Phelan said.

By Sue BlumVoice Correspondent

A sense of mystery and history per-vaded the high-ceilinged, stained-windowed chapel of St. Vincent DePaul Seminary last Thursday eveningwhen Fr. Ronald B. Aubin was or-dained to the priesthood.

It wasn't just the incense or the purewhite marble sanctuary adorned withEaster lilies and chrysanthemums; orthe bishops and clergy vested in vic-torious white-and-gold of the EasterSeason; or the echoing Alleluias ortrumpet blasts. It was more than all ofthat . . . it was an almost measurablesense of the presence of God.

THIS WAS the first ordination to thepriesthood ever conferred at theSeminary, and for Father Aubin it wasthe culmination of 17 years offollowing his call to the priesthood.Born in Massachusetts, the newly-ordained priest was raised in Hialeah,attending Immaculate ConceptionSchool when he first began to sensehis call. He returned north to attend ahigh-school seminary in Massachuset-ts, and then went on to a Salesiancollege in New jersey.

He returned to Immaculate Concep-tion Church but this time as a teacherwhere he taught English in the elemen-tary school for three years. Continuallysensing God's special calling, it wasnot until he spent a year's service inthe Diocese of Rapid City, SouthDakota, working on an Indian reser-vation that he finally made hisdecision. In 1977, he entered St. Vin-cent De Paul Seminary. He was or-dained by Bishop Harold J. Dimmerlingof Rapid City.

"I'VE WAITED seventeen years forthis day, and I really want tocelebrate!" Father Aubin said to the

During his instructions to the can-didate, Bishop Dimmerling remindedhim, "You are to be a teacher, a san-ctifier, and a shepherd of God's holypeople. I also want to remind you," hecontinued, "of the nobility and dignityof your calling and the awesomeresponsibilities which you areassuming."

"You are to apply your energies toteaching God's people, to sharing withthem the Word or God. You are toteach sound doctrine, a doctrinewhich will nourish God's people.Perhaps it will be your example andactions more than your words thatwill draw people to imitate Christ."

"ALSO, YOU MUST help people

become holy in the power of Christ. .. In celebrating the daily- memorial ofthe Sacrifice of the Mass, you will bereminded each day to make effort todie and to rise with Chr is t . . . to walkalways in the footsteps of the DivineMaster."Father Aubin's father remarked, "I'm

just so very, very proud of him . . . andhappy for him. You know, I studied forthe priesthood myself many years agoand found that God was calling me tobe a father of another kind . . . a fatherof children (eventually four of them.)And now, I find myself a 'father of aFather'!" .

Father Aubin will celebrate his firstMass on Sunday, April 26, at Im-maculate Concept ion Church inHialeah. He will then be assigned toserve in the Diocese of Rapid City,with which he has been associated forthe past five years, where there arefive Indian reservations, 35,000Catholics, and only 35 diocesanpriests.

"We wanted to have this opportunity to meetwith you, in the House of the Lord, in order to ex-press a tribute to you, and our profound thanksfor your dedicated, heroic service to our com-munities," said Archbishop Edward A. McCarthylast Sunday at the Annual Police and Firemen'sMass held at St. Mary's Cathedral.

More than 100 policemen, firemen, and theirfamilies from both Oade and Broward Countiesconverged on St. Mary's Cathedral for a colorfulconcelebrated Mass and Communion.

Marching behind the color guard of bothorganizations, the procession preceeded theclergy into the Cathedral and took seats in reser-ved sections on both sides of the main aisle at thefront of the Cathedral.

THE concelebrated Mass was celebrated by Arch-bishop McCarthy, assisted by Bishop AgustinRoman and Bishop John Nevinsj, and Fr. ThomasEngbers, pastor of St. Thomas the Apostle, FireDepartment Chaplain, and Fr. Gerard LaCerra,Chancellor of the Archdiocese and Rector of theCathedral.

In some short remarks at the close of the Mass,Archbishop McCarthy said, "We want you toknow that we are trying to be mindful of the stressthat you undergo for us, of the annoyance you

endure at being rejected, even violently, at timesby the very people you are trying to protect."THE ARCHBISHOP continued, "We are mindfulof the toll this must take in your personal lives andthe tranquitity of the lives of your families - whomwe also salute."

Archbishop McCarthy said that "we refuse topermit a few incidents of inability by one or theother man, to be true to the high ideals of yourcalling - to lessen our grateful esteem for you."

The Archbishop said that it was recognized thatthe police and firemen are also being victimizedby the effects of the failures of our days - thedeterioration in schooling, in family life, in themedia, and entertainment - in the criminal justicesystem, and in preserving the human ideals ofbrotherhood that comes from the faithful practiceof religion.

"WE ARE GRATEFUL to have had this oppor-tunity to pray with you and to pray for you," saidthe Archbishop.

"We have fervently asked God our Father tosend his Guardin angels to protect you, as youprotect us. We pray that you will not bediscouraged or lose heart, that you will be everprotected by the awareness of how you areneeded and appreciated," continued ArchbishopMcCarthy.

The Archbishop concluded his remarks bysaying, "We pray that you will be given all theassistance in laws, personnel, and equipment andcitizen support to do your duty without han-dicap. We pray, too, that God's Grace will ever bewith you to protect you, to strengthen you,keeping you ever faithful to your noble professionin the service of your fellow men and women."

ROSENBERG ALSO argued thatdespite being outnumbered by otherwitnesses, his view was the one moregenerally accepted by the scientificcommunity. • He charged that otherwitnesses were failing to distinguishbetween their personal religiousbiases, their professional judgmentsand "scientific truth."

That brought rejoinders from Dr.Jasper Williams, a Chicago physicianwho practices in the inner city, and Dr.Alfred Bongiovanni, a member of theUniversity of Pennsylvania medical

faculty, who both said their viewswere not based on narrow religiousgrounds.

Among the releases handed toreporters sitting in the press section ofthe hearing room were statementsfrom Catholics for a Free Choice, aWashington-based organization ofCatholics who oppose the church'steachings on abortion, and theReligious Coalition for Abortion Rights.

Both contended that while humanlife may begin at conception, "en-soulment" theologically does not oc-cur until later and thus that "per-sonhood" does not begin at concep-tion.

WASHINGTON (NC) - The SupremeCourt ruled April 27 that states mayoutlaw abortions performed outsideof hospitals for women more thanthree months pregnant.

By a 6-3 vote the justices upheld anIndiana law in the case, Gary-Northwest Indiana Woman v. Orr. Theaffirmation was not accompanied byan opinion and Justices William J.Brennan, Thurgood Marshall and HarryA. Blackmun dissented.

The controversy arose in Indianashortly after the 1978 Supreme Courtdecision based on a woman's right toprivacy, which legalized abortion inmost cases. The 1973 decision saidstate governments cannot interferewith a woman's choice, to have anabortion during her first three monthsof pregnancy.

The ruling said states may seek toprotect the woman's health during the

second trimester and may move toprotect fetal life only during the finaltrimester. •• . •

The Indiana legislature later in 1973passed a law that required parentalconsent for abortions performed onunwed minors and prohibited abor-tions outside a hospital for womenmore than three months pregnant.

That law made it a felony for a doc-tor to perform an abortion, other thana first-trimester one, away from ahospital.

The Gary-Northwest IndianaWomen's Service's Inc., an abortionclinic, and a woman then 16 to 18weeks pregnant challenged the law ina federal lawsuit filed in 1974.

'Thank you, Sisters''We regard you trulyas sisters, with all thefondness that means'

— Abp. McCarthyBy Ana M. Rodriguez

Voice Staff WriterSaturday was special for 16 sisters of

the Archdiocese of Miami.After spending a cumulative 600

years, give or take a decade or two,teaching your children, tending yoursick, comforting your elderly andhelping to run your retreats, you toldthem, "Thank you."

Archbishop Edward McCarthy-, histwo Auxiliary Bishops, about 30priests, more than 200 relatives, frien-ds and religious, and St. Mary'sCathedral choir, plus two trumpets

' brought in for the occasion, honoredthe sisters during a Mass celebratingtheir diamond, golden and silverjubilees.

"WE REGARD you truly as sisters,with all the fondness that means," theArchbishop said, speaking specially forthe priests. He joined all the people ofthe Archdiocese in thanking Cod "withthem and for them," and proclaim-ed Saturday "All Sisters Day."

During the homily, Fr. John Edwards,pastor of Gesu Church in Miami,recalled that "the future of thereligious life, ever since SecondVatican Council, has been sort ofbrought into consideration andreview."

Many people, he said, "take apessimistic view of the religious life."But the documents since Vatican II,those of Medellin, Colombia, andPuebla, Mexico, have stressed that"the religious life has a more impor-tant role in the life of the Church todaythan it has ever had."

The religious' role is that of"prophetic witness," to show "that wehave not here a lasting city but onethat is to come," Fr. Edwards said.

VISIBLY MOVED, he recalled onesister who exemplified beautifully themix of old and new in religious life,

Sr. jovanna Stein, silver jubilarian, receives a cross and certificate of recognition from Archbishop McCarthyduring the mass.

and who, after 55 years as a nun, haddied the day before.

Sr. Augustine, born in the UntiedStates, had worked in Cuba until theearly '60's, when many priests andnuns were expelled. After spendingthe next few years in Colombia, shecame to South Florida to work with themigrants, and finally joined the facultyof Gesu school.

While preparing her body, Fr. Ed-wards said, a little plastic bag had beenfound tied to her belt. Inside, was acopy of the vows she had made manyyears ago, a deeply symbolic sign of

the way she had tried to remain alwaysfaithful to her commitment.

Fr. Edwards urged the sisters presentalso to remain faithful to the qualitiesthat have singled out the Religiousthroughout the centuries, namely:

• A deep prayer life, one fully in-tegrated with their daily tasks;

• A calling to be "prophetic wit-nesses" who show here on earth thekingdom that is to come;

• "A preferential option for thepoor" while excluding no group fromtheir ministry; and

• A good working relationship with

the bishop of their diocese.Speaking later, the Archbishop ex-

pressed hope for the future ofreligious life. "

"I'M SURE the young women arethere. I'm sure the young men arethere," he said, citing recent changesin attitude among youth. But theyneed to be made aware of the role ofthe Religious in the modern world andtheir misunderstandings need to becleared up.

The Archbishop added, "there'sreason to be expecting great things."

Sr. Laura Simmons, left, golden jubilarian, and Sr. Liberata Haedtke, diamond jubilarian, reflectupon their years in-the religious life.

It's about time lifeissue was heard

Abortion backers are complaining that the hearings in Congresson human life were stacked.

That's a switch.They never complained in previous years when the stacking

was in their favor in the various government commissions andhearing on women, on the family, on health issues, or on appoint-ments to head government agencies or even to Cabinet posts.

And unless it is our imagination, there is even a subtle shift inIthe general coverage on the issue by the media. The pro-life side isbeginning to be heard, not as an afterthought, not as a thinpretense to objectivity, but because of a growing consciousnessthat there IS an issue.

Since 1973 Supreme Court ruling, and even before, there hasbeen a kind of assumption by most of the media that the abortion

EDITORIALissue was settled as a matter of women's rights only and anycontrary view deserved no equal weight..

But now we are seeing a parade of distinguished scientistsbefore a congressional committee opening up the wholequestion of human life and when it begins (See page 1.)

Time magazine recently featured a broad, surprisingly objectivecoverage of the issue. Their conclusion that pro-life activity wasout of step with the times was all the more dumb because of thevery fact that their own coverage did not lead up to that con-clusion at all.

And, even though many comentators and columnists still take apro-abortion view, at least some creedence to the other side isbeginning to creep into some of the writing.

What will come of all this remains to be seen. Further hearingsare scheduled. Whether there will be a Human Life Amendmentor a law defining human life at conception, is still hard to predict.

But the point is, the pro-life issue has gained status as alegitimate issue and that is a large first step to respect of life it-

Hits nun's article>To The Editor:

Your article, "My 25 Years as a Nun"by Sister Jovanna Stein, appearing intoday's issue, belittles the work ac-complished by millions of nunsthroughout the world before VaticanII. I protest to the implication that theSecond Vatican Council and thechanging of the habit for a dress wasthe .spark that lit the intellect ofWomen Religious.

Sister Jovanna states: "As the yearssince Vatican II pass we have becomeeducated, professional, articulatewomen who are called to a variety ofservices within the Church and Secularinstitutions." This, is wanton disregardfor the work performed by nunsbefore and after Vatican II. WomenReligious have built and run hospitals,nomes for unwed mothers, or-phanages, schools, homes for thedestitute and the aged, sanitariums forthe care of lepers, etc.. Sisters have

Letters to the Editorbeen the backbone of Catholicschools in the U.S. and elsewhere sin-ce their inception. Stories' of themissions give witness to the courageof nuns, of their lives and sometimestheir final martyrdom. Sister Jovannahas perhaps forgotten these historicalfacts when she states: "Leaving behindthe old familiar life patterns and ven-turing into new arenas to bring aboutjustice and peace certainly calls us tobe women of faith."

I agree that Mother Theresa x>fCalcutta is a good example of whatnuns have accomplished; however,rather than saying that Sister TheresaKane is another good example of this, Iwould have picked St. Elizabeth Seton,who truly lived up to her vows. SisterTheresa Kane acted against he vow ofobedience when she dared'the HolyFather - before the cameras of thewhole world - on what he had publidyconsidered to be the closed matter ofthe ordination of women to thepriesthood. . .

I don't mean any disrespect to SisterJovanna, but I cannot sit back andallow her to indicate that a change ofgarb changed the nuns we knew to"educated, professional, articulatewomen" (as if they had not been so alla long )- Mrs. Sylvia M.Galan

Refugee FairnessThroughout the history of the United

States, people from various countriesthroughout .the world have soughtrefuge from all sorts of misfortune bycorning to this land of wealth, oppor-tunity and freedom, and have foundand were readily given refuge.There have been influxes of.thousandsof people at a time from: Italy, Ireland,Germany, Poland, Russia, China, Cam-bodia, Vietnam, Puerto Rico, Mexico,Cuba and Haiti; the latter two beingthe most recent.

These refugees left their native landsfor reasons ranging from politics to

hunger. These people chose America,as did the early settlers, because itoffered a new beginning. In "almost" allcases, they did find a new beginningwithout political hinderance from theU.S. government. However, I say"almost" because such has not beepthe case for many of the Haitianrefugees.

Why then are these people beingpersecuted? Why are they not given a

. chance to fulfill their dream of a newbeginning as the other groups were?

Is it maybe because they're darker inskin color than previous refugees? Ormaybe is it that the lack of communistthreat in Haiti causes the U.S. to con-sider Haitians as less important than,lef s say, the Cubans?

Furthermore, the number of Haitianrefugees is minimal compared to the.great number of Cuban refugees. NoHaitian refugee has ever hijacked a

i plane. The conditions that these Haitianrefugees are fleeing are deplorable byany standards.

I say, in all fairness, give the Haitiansa chance. MaxtMassac

fioscoHostages

- t

The most inspiring reading I didduring Lent was a newspaper articleheadlined, "Ex-Hostage and WifeSpeak i of Spiritual Change." In die NewYork Times story, former hostageMoorehead Kennedy Jr., and his wife,Louisa, explained that the 444 days ofcaptivity in Iran had led each to a"deeper spiritual transformation."

Addressing a congregation at theEpiscopal Cathedral of St. John theDivine in Manhattan, Mrs. Kennedylikened the early stages of the ordealto a "crucible or anguish," which laterturned into a "golden bowl" con-taining the "experience of God andhow one reaches out to God and findsthere everything one needs."

Kennedy compared his personalcrisis to the themes of death andresurrection. Just as Lent suggestsgreat personal crisis, he said, themessage of Christ's resurrectionmeans "that we matter and that welive." ,

The Kennedy's expressions ofspiritual acceptance in the wake' ofpersonal crisis, and of the joy andpeace they gained, is inspiring. Manytimes during the months of captivityfor the U.S. hostages, i sensed a

parallel to the season of Lent. It was atime of darkness, of uncertainty, offear and humiliation. It was also a timeof,humility.

As each day's newscast reminded ushow many days the hostages were incaptivity, a sense of helplessnessswept over us and we were remindedhow weak all earthly power can be. Ifwe were honest, we could admit alsothat acknowledging thispowerlessness was a humbling ex-perience.

If we felt empathy with thehostages, we also experienced,vicariously, a sense of the desolationof being stranded in a place we did notchoose, far removed from the comfor-table confines of our secure home andcountry.

For most of us, I would wager thiswas a familiar even though scaryfeeling. Haven't most people felt as ifthey were being held hostage in an un-friendly place at some point in theirlives?

I was made decidedly aware of thisrecently when I met a young man of25. He fits the classic definition of"strapping"; he is handsome and brightand possesses a fine personality too.

The future held great promise for him -until some strange captor in his bodytook over. He has a debilitating illnessthat will force him to go about his lifeconfined to a wheelchair.

"I am a hostage, too," the young mantold me, and immediately expressedhis determination not to be nailed tohis pain. He was seeking to be free ofhis imprisonment, if not in his body,then in his mind. He had returned tocollege and was making realisticchoices about his future.

Fortunately, few of us are hostages insuch a dramatic way. Nonetheless, weall have hostage moments — timeswhen we are trapped, stuck in an un-comfortable or painful situation. Theycan be, as Mrs. Kennedy said, "acrucible," a time for burning out theresidues of this world, all the falsevalues and distorted desires of the egothat envelop us. They can be the oc-casion, as well, for burning awaywhatever immobilizes us, whateverkeeps us from moving along in thefaith journey that leads to God and to.life forever.

Lent is the burning. Easter is the lifeforever. Because of 52 Americans andtheir 444 days in the desert, I foundthe message of death and resurrectioneminently public and clear this year.

The big scramble

You never saw such a scramble.What happened was that adistinguished sociologist, Dr. James S.Coleman, offered the results of a studythat indicated that private high schoolsprovide a better education than publichigh schools. Another distinguishedsociologist, Father Andrew Greeley,reported the results of a study that in-dicated that Catholic high schoolsbenefit disadvantaged minority"students more than public schools do.

And the scramble was on. All at on-ce, like the Keystone Cops in aspeeded-up silent comedy, there wasa rush of experts, public school ad-ministrators, government education 'officials and daily newspapereditorialists, screanrAig that the studiescouldn't possibly be accurate, that ifthey were accurate that comparisonsweren't fair since private schools haveall the advantages and, finally, thatnone of it could possibly have anyrelevance to claims that might bemade for any sharing in educationalbenefits with parents" of children inprivate schools.

The credentials of Dr. Coleman, theUniversity of Chicago sociologist whois director of the National OpinionResearch Center, cannot bequestioned. He has been influential inshaping educational policy for manyyears. Father Greeley may be con-troversial, as he intends to be, in theopinons he expresses in the secularand Catholic press but he is a respec-ted sociologist and he wasn't ex-pressing opinion but reporting fact inthe report he gave.

While I am simplifying Dr. Coleman's

report> what he said that was probablymost significant is that private schools- and he was discussingpredominantly Catholic schools •—provide a more disciplined and or-dered environment for study, askmore and demand more from stu-dents and in doing so educatebetter than do public high schools.

Father Greeley offered empiralevidence that disadvantaged minorityhigh school students do better inCatholic Schools.

"Of course no one suggestsabandoning public schools. Noris any one asking that theTreasury be opened to helpparents pay for tuition — what issuggested is that parents whochoose to implement theprimary parental right toeducate through non-publicschools be allowed somebenefits from the taxes they

Page• 10 / Miami4 Florida / THE VOICE / Friday Jy\a.y. 1,.1981

It would be reasonable to supposethat the reports of Dr. Coleman andFather Greeley would have beenreceived thoughtfully, examined forwhatever lessons could be learnedfrom them. Instead the. response wasalmost totally negative. Father Greeleythinks anti-Catholic bias accounts forthis. That may be true. But certainlyanother reason is that the publicschool system recognizes it has

problems in its public image and whilethese reports were not really aimed tocriticize public schools but to praiseprivate and parochial schools, suppor-ters of public schools interpreted themas an attack.

The New York Times, aggressivelydefensive said, "But in any case, thenew report comes down to a bluntpolicy question: so what? Shouldsociety now abandon public schoolsand open the Treasury to help parentspay private tutition? Or will it insteadseek to reinstill discipline, accoun-tability and parental interest in publiceducation? Nonpublic schools can anddo proudly provide fine education,working with select students. The testis whether society has the courage toprovide the resources and authority tomake public education work."

Of course no one suggests aban-doning public schools. Nor is any oneasking tnat the Treasury be opened tohelp parents pay for private tuition —what is suggested is that parents whochoose to implement the primaryparental right to educate throughnonpublic schools be allowed somebenefits from the taxes they pay. TheTimes misunderstands both Dr.Coleman's and Father Greeley's repor-ts by speaking of "select" students. Theimport of the study is that with studen-ts of the same backgrounds there is adifference. But what the Times missesmost is that the fact there is choice ineducation offers the challenge and themodel for making public schools whatthe Times hopes they may become.

Don't trymarriage

Q. My older brother, whom I admire alot, has decided to give marriage a try.This has started me thinking a lotabout getting married and what itmight be like. I think maybe somedayHI give marriage a try too. I wonder if tshould. What do you think? (Ariz.)

A. Absolutely not. Neither shouldyour brother. No one - but no one -should get married with the idea of"giving it a try," as you so unfor-tunately put i t

Don't even consider marrying a girluntil deep within your heart and mindyou are convinced of the following:

Marriage lasts until one partner dies.

Marriage is a solemn promise.Marriage is about vows, and

dedication and giving yourself to yourpartner and your children.Marriage is not a 50-50 proposition.

For both partners it should be morelike an 80-20 proposition. Both shouldbe more alert to giving rather than get-ting. This is sometimes called love andis the key to fulfillment.

Marriage is difficult. Inevitably thereare quarrels, disagreements, misun-derstandings, hurts and a variety ofother pains.

Marriage can be tough as hell onsome days.

I have painted a grim picture. Butmarriage is also a preview of heaven.

Among the most wonderful andpowerful words are these, "I want tobe with you." Thafs what marriagepartners imply and perhaps say ontheir wedding day. Those are the wor-ds they keep underlining as long asthey are faithful to their solemnpromises.

In marriage the tremendous pleasureof sexual intercourse is heightened bythe knowledge each partner has of theother's dedicated love. Marriage alsobrings to many the awesome hap-piness of holding a little baby in theirarms, new life that is the fruit of theirlove, a new person who may wellpraise God for all eternity!

Marriage is the scene of many smallerpleasures too, such as picnics, partiesand quiet evenings at home together.

The good moments of marriagegrow better if the partners have thecourage to hang in there during thebad times.

But it is unlikely that any marriagewill bring happiness if the partners are"only giving it a try."

Sheerin, CSP A forgotten Jesuit?

Who remembers Father Gustave Weigel? Thisthought came to mind recently when I came acrosshis name twice while reading - lively evidence thatthis remarkable ecumenist has not been com-pletely forgotten. Yet in a very true sense he is aforgotten man.

Albert Outler, the noted professor of theology atSouthern Methodist University, once declared thatFather Weigel had shaped his perspective onmodern Catholicism in the prospects ofecumenism.

According to Outler, an observer at the SecondVatican Council, the marvel is "that there is amultitude of people similarly indebted to thisstrange unsaintly saint. And this has created amongus a sturdy comradeship of gratitude."

BORN IN 1906 in Buffalo, N.Y., Father Weigelearned his doctorate at the Gregorian University inRome and then taught theology at the CatholicUniversity in Santiago, Chile. With his informalityand charisma, he rapidly became one of the mostbeloved priests in Cnile. Then, while on a U.S. visitin 1946, he was astonished to receive a letter fromhis superior ordering him to remain in the UnitedStates.

For Father Weigel, this was tantamount to exile. In

"One of a Kind/' a book of essays on the priest, thelate Jesuit Father John Courtney Murray wrote:"That was probably the most difficult year, in aspiritual sense, of his whole life. His ejection (theterm is not too strong) from his adopted land,which he loved, had aspects of...injustice" in it.

Father Weigel was stunned and heartbroken andhis friend, Father Murray, urged him to take an in-terest in ecumemis.Between 1956 and 1963, Father

"One reason for Fr. Weigel's success lay inhis special approach for dealing withProtestant scholars. I remember himneedling them gently in ecumenical dis-cusions, always with a touch of humor,which they seem to love."

Weigel became an important figure in the vanguardof the movement, at a time when many Catholicsconsidered ecumenism a strictly Protestantmovement.

One reason for Father Weigel's success lay in hisspecial approach for dealing with Protestantscholars. I remember him needling them gently in

ecumenical discussions, always with a touch ofhumor, which they seemed to love. He must havefelt specially honored when he received a Yalehonorary doctorate containing the words, "Youhave breached the wall of the Reformation andhave made a pioneering effort in the Catholic-Pro-testant dialogue."

HIS CONTRIBUTION to the Second Vatican Coun-cil was colossal. Before each day's work began,Father Weigel translated the texts that were comingup for discussion in the general congregation.

After the sessions, Father Weigel was subjected toa barrage of questions about the daily events from90 or more journalists. There were other experts onthe panel, on which I served as moderator, butFather Weigel was the star with his wit arid clarity.Often he would continue talking about the couhcrlwell into the night. ""*

During the sessions, he translated the Latinspeeches into English for the benefit of Protestantobservers, a herculean task for which they werevery grateful. A Protestant observer at the council,Robert McAfee Brown, said that translating all theLatin that was being spoken in the council sessionswas "one of the most exhausting intellectual exer-cises ever devised by man."

IN POINT OF FACT, Father Weigel's physical framecould not stand the intense strain. On Jan. 3, 1964,he died of a heart attack.

Confusing Political Protestwith Political Terrorism

A colleague who attended an interfaith colloquiumthe day President Reagan was shot and almostkilled, noted that some of the Jewish participantsappeared more visibly distressed by the shooting ofthe president than their non-Jewish counterparts.

I had a similar experience at an interfaith meetingin Europe. All of the delegates, including the non-Americans, were upset by the tragic news fromWashington. But the Jewish delegates seemedmore shaken than the others.

My colleague was somewhat perplexed by hisexperience and when we last discussed it, was stilltrying to figure it out.

Given their tragic history, I don't think ifs sur-prising that Jews react with greater sensitivity andfear than non-Jews to actions of political terrorism,especially when those responsible are thought tohave ties, to neo-Nazi or other subversive anti-democratic organizations.

JEWS CANNOT FORGET — and we Christiansmust never forget - that this kind of terrorism led tothe complete breakdown of democratic institu-tions in Nazi Germany and the extermination of 6million Jews. Thus they are keenly sensitive to thedangers of terrorism.

Jews, of course, are not the only ones who fearthe rise of political terrorism. The Catholic-Jewishcolloqium I attended in Europe included a com-prehensive report on political terrorism and the^growth of neo-Nazi and other anti-democraticorganizations in various parts of the world.

The Catholic and Jewish delegates spoke with onevoice about this problem. However, spokesmen forboth groups cautioned that we should avoid con-fusing legitimate political protest with politicalterrorism. Opposition to political terrorism must gohand in hand with support of human rights and acommitment to social justice, they sa«±

"Father Pedro"Arrupe, the Jesuit superior general,made this point very well in a recent letter onMarxism sent to Jesuit superiors. His carefullyworded letter included a series of warnings againstthe Marxist understanding of man and history aswell as the Marxist strategy of class struggle.

SOME ELEMENTS of Marxist social analysis, hewrote, are acceptable to Christians. But Marxistphilosophy as a whole "is something we cannot ac-cept," he warned.

Tied to this warning, however, was a furthercaution. "We should also firmly oppose," he wrote,

'Given their tragic history, I don't think ifssurprising that Jews react with greater sen-sitivity and fear than non-Jews to actions ofpolitical terrorism, especially, when thoseresponsible are thought to have ties toNeo-Nazi or other subversive anti-democratic organizations."

"the efforts of anyone who wishes to take advan-vtage of our reservations about Marxist analysis inorder to condemn as Marxist or communist, or atleast to minimize esteem for, a commitment tojustice and the cause of the poor, the defense oftheir rights against those who exploit them, theurging of legitimate claims.

"Have we not often seen forms of anti-comunismthat are nothing but means for concealing injustice?In this respect as well, let us remain true to our-selves and nor permit anyone to exploit our criticalassessment of Marxism and Marxist analysis."

FATHER ARRUPE mentioned no names andneither will I. Recently, however, a few Catholic

editors and even a few Jesuits have joined the ranksof those who falsely brand social reformers asMarxists. In Father Arrupers own words, they mustbe firmly opposed.

Singer went fromGives concert for youth

in local parish

Fr. O'Shaughnessy a n d fr iend sing a long. <pbotoby Prent Browning)

By Prent BrowningVoice Staff Writer

At first glance he fits a familiarstereotype: shoulder-length hair, aself-confessed child of the sixties, as athome with a guitar and a stool as athousand 'coffeehouse singersseemingly a remnant of a: more tur1

bulent, alienated generation.But take another look. Jon Polce, a

folk singer from Providence, RhodeIsland, has a special message.

"Up until seven or eight years ago, Ididn't know Jesus. The Catholic Churchdidn't relate to me. The Masseswere even in Latin then so I couldn'teven understand them."

FORMERLY a musician with a risingrock band, Polce is an inspirationalcomposer, performer, and recorder orChristian music.

"I did not know what to expect at first,said Sean O'Shaughnessy, Directorof S. Dade Youth Federation, who ih-troduced Polce before a concert Sun-day night at Christ The King Church inPerrine.

"When he looks at you and touchesyou the Lord touches you also."

Polce shares his story with audienceswherever he travels.

An audience of 200 waits quietlywhile a thin intense looking young manplugs in his guitar and leans toward themicrophone. ''The Angel Cabriel sentfrom the city of God," he starts singingsoftly.

POLCE as a teenager had problemsin relating to his parents, too, theseemingly inevitable byproduct ofbeing young and living in the sixties.

After a trip to California when he was19 Polce left home for good, findingwork as a professional musician.

"I did a lot of drugs," he says,"drinking, consciousness raising, Ifooled around with T.M."

In short, like so many of hisgeneration he was searching.

"I TRIED everything and nothing"would satisfy me."

He played with a number ofgroups; lived in California andGreenwich Village. Then his carrer tookan upward turn. He sang and playedguitar with a blues group that wasrecording a record for Columbia.

"My heart was hard like a rock," hesays between songs. "I realized Ididn't know how to love. Before aretreat the Lord gave me this song". . ."Heal my heart, Lord Jesus", comes aplaintive refrain, "teach me how tolove. Before I knew you I was indarkness, my eyes could only seeshadows. The audience looks up insympathetic silence.

Although everything in his lifeseemed to be going well, he recalls,"it was nothing but a lot of words — alot of pain. 'This is what will make mehappy', I thought, but I wasn't happy."

In 1974 he returned to his homestate of Rhode Island. One night thatwinter he and a fr iend saw amysterious light enter the window ofPolce's apartment.

"THE NEXT DAY I realized it was theLord's presence." Several weeks laterhe had a complete mystical experien-ce, equivalent on a personal level toSt. Paul's conversion on the road toDamascus.

. He accepted Christ and had a"profound feeling of peace -andstillness. It was the end of my jour-ney."

"The Lord lesus is so near tonight. . .

This is it! This is the truth, 'cause'lesussaid I am the way and the light" Theaudience responds with similar criesand shouts of excitement.

POLCE JOINED a Christian com-munity in Rhode Island and reconciledhimself with his parents who nowshare in his happiness and religiousconvicitons. He also reconciled him-self with his past, and his radical dislikeof upper middle class America and thegovernment. The leader of theChristian community which is in amiddle-class suburb, works for thegovernment, he says.

Now Poce, still active in his layChristian community, has his ownlocal radio program and also hosts anactive coffeehouse ministry in the hallof a local parish.

On distinguishing sexualintimacy and friendship

Dear Mary: I have wondered where the line be-tween fidelity and infidelity begins and ends. I amsure that almost everyone has met somebody ofthe opposite sex whom they still remember evenafter marrying someone else. Would it be wrong tophone that person to chat or even to go out to din-ner with?

Suppose one was driving across country andpassed through a town where an old friend of theopposite sex lived. Would it be wrong to contacther? I don't mean to have an affair or an extramaritalfriendship, but sometimes you wonder how a per-son is doing. (Illinois)

« ^ •

A. You have raised an issue which touches allmarried people today. As both men and womenspend more time away from home and family, theyassociate with people of both sexes. How does amarried person handle friendship with members ofthe opposite sex?

CLEARLY FRIENDSHIP between men and womenis both good and possible. If we grow as humansand as Chnstians through dealings with others, thenit would be inconceivable to exclude the oppositesex - half the human race - from our friendship'.

At the same time, married Christians havepledged themselves to monogamy, sexual intimacywith one and only one partner. I sense that your let-ter concerns sexual intimacy and friendship withoutdistinguishing them.

CHRISTIANS NOT ONLY can but ought to havefriendships with members of both sexes. Neverthe-less, an honest married person knows the difference ibetween friendship and sexual desire. A marriedman who phones an old school friend in a distantcity knows whether his desire is to rekindle a friend*ship or to develop a possible sexual intimacy.Anyone who claims there is no difference or that heor she can't tell the difference is kidding himself.Honesty with yourself is the first step to healthyfriendships with the opposite sex.

In a continuing man-woman friendship the possi-bility of sexual intimacy can arise. Feelings arepowerful. Certainly.a man and woman who arefriends, can fall in love, experiencing mutual sexualdesire. A second possibility is that one p rty issexually attracted while the other regards therelationship as strictly friendship.

BOTH SITUATIONS ARE DIFFICULT. The risks tothe marriages of the persons involved are real.

Again, honesty between friends is one of the mosteffective ways to handle such problems. One friendmight openly tell the other, "I am very attracted toyou, but I don't want to mess up either of our lives."This friend knows where the relationship stands andcan respond with an equally open and honest ex-pression of feelings. Paradoxically, friends who canbe verbally open and honest with each other sharea friendship intimacy which makes them less, notmore, apt to drift into sexual intimacy.

The opportunities for man-woman friendships,abound. Such friendships can enrich us, but theycan pose risks to the marriages of the persons in-volved. Somehow I cannot imagine Christ, whoreached out so warmly to both men and women,directing his people to shun half the human race.Honesty in assessing your feelings, honesty withyour opposite-sex friends and recognition thatfriendship feelings differ from sexual desire arequalities which make possible both friendship withthe opposite sex and marital fidelity.

By Carol A.Farrell Learning to love: The work of a lifetime

There is very little knowledge that isinborn. It is said that an infant comesinto life knowing how to use themuscles of the mouth and tongue to

• nourish himself, and that all else islearned. True or not, we all know thatthe development of new skills andcapabilities is no small part of the ex-citement and challenge of daily living.Yet we are such quick learners and weimitate easily so much of what weperceive, that many times we un-derestimate how much is taught and'caught and how very little is innate.

THIS IS ESPECIALLY true of ourcapacity to love. Each human being isborn with the potential of becoming alover but only those who are lovedcan develop and actualize that poten-tial. Love is not an event: somethingthat happens. It is, rather, a process inwhich we are first recipients or takers,

OPENING PRAYERDearest Father thank you for this

past week and for all you have givenour family. Thank you for our moun-tains, for our deserts in bloom, orbrilliant colored sunsets and for all ourfriends and neighbors in this diocese.Bless each of us this evening and helpus to respond more and more eachday to your call to be ever open andfilled with love, especially within ourfamily. Amen.

Young FamilyMaterials: Paper, crayons. Each

divides his paper into four sections; adifferent picture is to be drawn in eachblock.1. A picture of myself, showing my

feelings about myself through colorchoice, example: yellow, sunny; blue,gentle, peaceful; orange, strong.

2. Draw the house or apartment thefamily lives in and decorate it with

but in which we are meant ultimatelyto be givers and sharers. Here, as in somany other areas of living, the truismholds that we cannot give what is notfirst ours. -

These thoughts were triggered by myyoungest son Kevin who woke verycheerfully the other morning. He cameinto the bedroom, reached up and cir-cled his arms about my waist andbegan to sing: "Oh, how I love Mom-my, Oh, how I love Mommy, Oh, howI love Mommy because he first lovedme." It was a lovely moment. Irecognized that he was singing aparody of a hymn he had learned inkindergarten: "Oh, how I love Jesus".In addition to all else I was delightedand honored to be in such good com-pany!

IN THE DAYS SINCE, the concepts ofbeing loved and of learning to lovehave haunted me. If s all so importantand so difficult!

I feel a great responsibility to be aloving mother since I believe that somuch of our children's capacity to love

both neighbor and God depends onthe depth of love they experiencein our home. And I know that perfectlove is unconditional: I love you.Period. No ifs, ands, buts or otherreservations. And it troubles me to beaware of my weakness in loving.

THE OTHER MORNING AT MASS,Father spoke on Christ's first meetingwith his apostles after his resurrection.His first words were "Peace be withyou." When we realize that this wastheir first meeting since they hadbetrayed and abandoned him thenight before he died, we realize theperfection of Christ's love. Thatmoment alone is proof enough of hisdivinity for me. Considering the cir-cumstances, wouldn't it have beenmore natural for him to say: "Howcould you have abandoned me afterall the time we were together, after allyou have been privileged to see andknow?!" He must have felt hurt yet heoffered his peace and love andforgiveness. What an example he sets!

When I think about what sometimeshappens when I feel hurt or disappoin-ted, in something my children havedone, I cringe. I can hardly ever resistgiving at least a little sermon eventhough I realize that the consequencesof their actions are obvious enough forthem to learn from. I also know howit feels to be on the receiving; end ofthose sermons. It usually adds afeeling of insult to injury. When I failsomeone what I long for more thananything is to hear that I am still loved,to feel that I am still lOveable. It is thelove, more than the correction, thatleads us to change our ways in thefuture.

1 HAVE BEEN BLESSED in feelingloved. It is precisely this experiencethat encourages me and strengthensme when I am the one who must beon the giving end. Of all we arechallenged to learn, growing in ourability to love is one of the few wortha lifetime of effort.

Familythings that make it special to me.

3. Draw a picture of all the familymembers with colors showing myfeelings about each person.

4. Draw a picture of the very bestthing I like about my family. After allhave finished the drawings, each mayhave a chance to explain his picture,then name what he thinks is the mostspecial thing about his family.

Middle Years FamilyMaterials: Paper, pencils, enough for

each person,- pass out paper and pen-cils. The paper may be divided intothree columns.

1. Make a list of five qualities I likemost about myself; (this isn't as easy asit may seem; often we • tend to benegative about ourselves).

2. Make a list naming all the mem-bers of the family and after each namelist the three qualities I like most aboutthat person.

3. In four sentences or less, name thefamily's most endearing quality andwhy I chose that particular quality.

Share and discuss what each haswritten.

Adult FamilyMaterials: Paper, pencils. Divide

paper into three columns.1. What am I most thankful for in my

family? Why?2. Name two qualities I most admire

in each person of the family.3. As a whole, what is my family's

number 1 quality, and how does itrelate to God's presence in our family?

Share and discuss what each haswritten.

ENTERTAINMENT - "Laughing Con-test" Place one family member in thecenter and everyone try to make himor her laugh. Take turns. The personwho keeps from laughing the longestis the winner.

SHARING - Each may share a highand low point of the last week.

Each may share a moment he feltespecially close to God.CLOSING PRAYER

Dear Father, our family thanks youfor this evening and for the qualitiesyou have helped reveal to each of us.Thank you for loving us so much. Blessyour Church and our Christian familythroughout the world. Help each of usto build your kingdom on earth as wewitness you wherever we are andwhatever we do this coming week.Amen.


Priest: Salvador refugees in bad shapeNEW YORK (NC) - Father George

Torak, a New York priest who diddocumentary film work on Salvadoranrefugees in Honduras, said he foundtheir conditions "tremendous, dread-ful" because of constant intimidationand lack of shelter, food andmedicines.

He also described details of a repor-ted massacre March 18 of Salvadoranstrying to flee from their war-torn coun-try into Honduras across the LempaRiver. -

Father Torak visited in late March theHonduran border area where U.S.

Cardinal:

Capuchins have several mission posts.One of them, Brooklyn-born FatherEarl Gallagher, has been active inrefugee work.

Father Torak in an interview readfrom Father Gallagher's report on themassacre:

"From early morning to midnightMarch 18 a large group of peasants —women, children and men, includingthe elderly - were under strifing fromplanes and a helicopter identified asbelonging to El Salvador's Nationalguard. There were bombs, machine-gun and mortar fire thrown at them.

"The result was nine drowned in theriver, seven dead by fire from the air,two beaten to death by soldiers, onekilled with a machete by a civilian fromOrden (a paramilitary group), one shotto death by roving bandits, three killedby ground fire on the banks and eightmore shot while crossing the waters.

"In addition 15 are reported missing.Children were separated from theirmothers who gave them away torescuers during the crossing to save

them."

Father Gallagher "was in the rescueoperation and had to take cover underrocks many times with children on hisback," said Father Torak.

'These tremendous, dreadful andtragic conditions are worsened by in-ternational politics that lose sight ofthe humanitarian side," Father Torakadded.

Let married men into priesthoodBOLOGNA, Italy (NC) - A retired

Italian cardinal recently challenged thechurch's stand on priestly celibacy andsaid he will ask Pope John Paul II to"face up to the concrete needs ofvarious churches."

Cardinal Michele Pellegrino, 78,retired archbishop of Turin, Italy, toldan interviewer from the Bologna-based religious magazine, II Regno,that he would urge the pope "openlyand without fear" to consider allowingmarried men to enter the Catholxpriesthood.

"FACED WITH this dilemma:Whether to maintain at any cost thelaw of celibacy that is currently in for-ce and tnus renounce fullevangelization, or to favor the fullevangelization that is sought in theEucharist and thus modify the ec-clesiastical law. I believe that it isnecessary to choose the secondroute," he said.

In the Regno interview, the cardinalalso criticized unnamed officials of the

Roman Curia, the church's central ad-ministration and "certain bishops"saying they failed to "have their eyessufficiently open to the world."

'They live in an arificial world,surrounded by a few, without feelingthe pulse of what the people think,"he added.

Problems should be solved morethrough discussion and less by calls toholy obedience, he added.

KNOWN FOR HIS simplicity and forhis ministry for factory workers in theauto plants of Turin, he has beenamong the Italian bishops who haveurged a slow, careful dialogue withItaly's communists and cooperationwith them in programs to aid society.

In 1978 Cardinal Pellegrino said thathe "would have learned better how tobe a bishop" if he had met BrazilianArchbishop Helder Camara 10 yearsearlier than he did. ArchbishopCamara, head of the Archdiocese ofOlinda and Recife in poverty-strickennortheastern Brazil, is known for hiswork on behalf of the poor.

THE ROAD TO EMMAUSReadings: Acts 2:14,28-28; 1 Peter 1:17,21; Luke 24:13-35

By Fr. Richard Murphy, O.P.

Our hearts do not often burn within us, andpeople like us are not often filled with rapture. Af-ter all, life is real, life is earnest, and we must keepour feet on the ground. Still, there are things thatcan - if we look at them - stir us to the depths ofour being.

We admire an athlete's flawless performance, butwe realize that there is more to life than musclesand movement. We are endowed with intelligence,and, using the brains Cod gave us, we have put aman on the moon. But far surpassing that feat arethe schools and hospitals and other charitableorganizations that are monuments to human good-ness. Our many churches testify to our response tospiritual realities. On a human level alone, we are asurprising compound of many marvels.

BUT WHEN COD enters our world, incrediblethings happen. The stories of creation, of theExodus, Exile and Return from the Exile, fascinate usall. But far outstripping them all is an utterlyastounding unique fact, that a virgin without humancooperation conceived and bore a child who wasGod's own Son. The wonders do not stop even

there, for Jesus was put to death on a cross, and -rose from the dead!

St. Luke, in a story that is a literary masterpiece,tells us of two disciples on their way to Emmaus.Jesus joined them, but they did not recognize him.Their hopes had rested upon Him and they hadassociated Him with the spectacular deeds ofMoses and the prophets. But the cross had beentoo much for them; disillusioned, they werewithout hope and without faith. And Jesus gentlychided them, because they had overlooked thisgreat fact - that suffering is part of Jthe mission ofevery servant of God.

On hearing these words, their hopes revived, andtheir hearts began to burn. They invited Jesus intotheir house, and there recognized Him in thebreaking of the bread. Once their faith had beenrestored, Jesus vanished from their sight. But nowthey knew that they did not have to see Him tobelieve. Hurrying on winged feet back to Jerusalem,they sought out the believing community, and theyfound it full of joy and presided over by Peter, towhom the Lord had appeared.

FIVE OF PETER'S sermons are reported in the Actsof the Apostles. We hear in them the voice of the .

primitive kerygma (equals proclamation). Jesusdied, crucified. He rose from the dead. Pastprophecies were fulfilled in Him. The path of lifehad been opened to all, for the messianic age hadbeen inaugurated, and the future beckoned in-vitingly.

In his first letter, Peter reminds his readers that,although we are pilgrims far from home, we arenevertheless very important people. We have beenredeemed from a futile way of life. The price paidfor our redemption was nothing so crass as meresilver or gold, but the infinitely precious blood ofChrist. "The life of all flesh is in its blood" (Leviticus17:14); Jesus shed His blood - gave us His life - sothat we might live. God did everything but bendover backwards to prove His love for us.

Thus our faith makes us aware of our dignity andworth. Jesus died for us. Our faith makes us God-centered, gets us out of ourselves. And it induces inus a state of never-ending wonder, for God haschosen human creatures, not His angels, to be theministers of His gospel. The very thought of this wasenought to "turn on" the saints. It ought surely tobe enough to make our hearts burn within us.

funded by the Federal government.The NCCC cited several examples.• It said in one diocese 45,000 elderly

would no longer be served by theirnutrition program.• Onethird of the family and

children services in a Texas diocesewould be curtailed.• In another diocese there would

be a 90 percent increase in the num-ber of people seeking help from theCatholic Charities food and clothingcenter.• Some 3,700 refugees in a mid-

western state would be affected bythe cuts.

NCCC also said that according toCatholic Charities directors a numberof local actions to counter theproposed cuts were being organized.Plans for forums and rallies inProvidence, R.I., and Indianapolis werenoted, as well as the formation ofbudget coalitions in Cleveland,Chicago, St. Louis, Oakland, Calif., andNew York State.

Budget cuts to hurt local peopleSpecial to The Voice

Area religious leaders discussed theproposed Reagan budget and con-cluded that local human needs arelikely to come up wanting due,toreduced funding.

The National Conference ofChristians and Jews, in cooperationwith the Catholic Service Bureau,United Protestant Appeal, NationalAssociation for the Advancement ofColored People and the GreaterMiami Jewish Federation co-sponsoreda forum dealing with 'The Impact ofProposed Budget Cuts on the Deliveryof Human Services in Dade County."

According to Dr. Dan Macoby,Associate Director of the Council ofJewish Federations, the Reaganproposals will do two things:

FIRST, THEY will cut Federal spendingand, second, decentralize human ser-vice delivery systems.

This means that now the states willbe primarily responsible for deter-mining how the remaining Federalhuman service dollars will be spent.The rationale is that states know moreabout local needs than the Federalbureaucracy. However, critics say thatin the past the states have not beenreceptive to local needs which is whythe money was directed fromWashington. It is also claimed thestates tend to do what is politicallyfeasible rather than what is reallyneeded.

THE MONEY would be given to thestate in a Block Grant. What this blockgrant does is consolidate money for 12

different programs into one Title 20,The programs funded under Title20 include child welfare, training,adoption, rehabilitation services, etc.Last year the Federal governmentdesignated $5 billion to these socialservice programs. Next year, underReagan's proposed budget cuts, therewill be a 25% reduction which in realitywill mean 35% after taking into account t10% for inflation. Currently, in order toreceive Federal monies the state hasto put up matching funds. Under theproposed Reagan plan, a state wouldno longer- be required to match fundsnor maintain the previous year's effor-ts. Actually the state could withdrawall the money allocated to theseprograms if it cnoses.

According to Macoby, this newsystem would create more local com-petition for the state dollar becausethere will not be enough to go around.

THE STATE will receive two blockgrants for Health Services: one forprevention and the other for basichealth services. Drug abuse andalcoholism would be incorporated inthese. Funding would be cut 25% andgiven to the state which would thendecide who gets it. The programswhich would probably be most affec-ted would be those with no politicalclout.

The services for the elderly underthe Older Americans Act has beenlargely left intact; however, it has notbeen increased to keep up with in-flation.

Perhaps the hardest hit of all

programs under the proposed budgetcuts is the CETA program. CETA doestwo things: First it provides public ser-vice employment and second, jobtraining and basic skills. It allows localgovernments to hire underemployedor unemployed people by subsidizingtheir employment. Critics of CETAclaim it is one of the most abusedprograms being used instead of CivilService by local government. Underthe Reagan plan all CETA Public Ser-vice positions will be terminated bySeptember 30th.

This- will mean 309,000 people leftjobless. The job training component ofCETA would be consolidated into ablock grant and cut 18%:

Medicaid, another very severely hitprogram, has been capped and canonly be increased by 5% next year.Health care cost is currently rising by45% annually. This would mean a 107%reduction in services and more

flexibility for the state in limiting reim-bursement. This was done under therationale that it would motivate statesto become more efficient andcreative. Critics say these measureswill not spur efficiency or creativity,rather services will be cut and morepeople hurt.

The proposed budget would cutrefugee area funds 5% which will lowerlevels of cash assistance.

These are just a few of the proposedcuts,

"The problem we have in trying tofight this proposed budget cut is thatthings are moving quickly. By the mid-dle of July the proposed budget cutswill be put into a bill and it will be aone package vote presented for oragainst the economy of the nation,"said Macoby.

He urges all concerned citizens toimmediately write to theircongressman and voice their feelings.

Throughout April the upsurge offighting in Lebanon drew renewed at-tention from world political andreligious leaders, yet a lasting solutionremained elusive. Among the worldfigures urging a peace plan were PopeJohn Paul II and U.S. Secretary of StateAlexander Haig.

During a trip to the Middle East inearly April Haig said the United Stateswas taking "unprecedented measures"to end the fighting. These includeddiplomatic contacts with Syria, theSoviet Union, France and the Vatican,he said on April 5.

ON THE SAME DAY the pope askedfor an end to the "anguishing" fightingand said that "conscience and inter-national public opinion cannot remaininsensitive" to the situation.

The Vatican "has intervened accor-ding to the possibilities and withtireless commitment in order to stopthe fighting and bombings," added thepope.

What worried both men was a newoutbreak of fighting which pitted sup-porters of the Palestine LiberationOrganization (PLO) and Syrian troopsagainst Christian-led militiamenreceiving Israeli support. The im-mediate cause was the Syrian shellingof areas having predominantlyChristian populations.

Syrian troops entered Lebanon five

years ago as a peacekeeping force, butnave generally favored the PLO and itssupporters.

As April drew to a close, however,fighting was still fierce. At least 21ceasefires had been declared withnone resulting in a lasting end tohostilities. And Pope John Paul wasreferring to Lebanon as a "martyred"nation.

IN WASHINGTON a.State Depar-tment spokesman said April 27 that Ithe United States was maintaining its"unprecedented" diplomatic effortsbut still was not ready to say if it had aworkable plan.

Meanwhile, the Lebanese bishops &called for solidarity from Catholicbishops around the world. In the .United States Archbishop John R.Roach, president of the National Con-ference of Catholic Bishops, pledged"prayerful solidarity" with theLebanese bishops.

"We condemn attacks on civiliancenters; no political reason can justifythem," said Archbishop Roach in amessage to the Lebanese bishops. Ar-chbishop Roach also sent a telegramto Vice President George Bush urging"the strongest possible diplomaticaction to condemn the. shelling ofcivilian centers in Lebanon by theSyrian and Palestinian forces." Arch-bishop Roach's messages werereleased April 6.

In the U.S. Congress two letters were

sent to President Ronald Reaganasking for U.S. action.

ONE LETTER, signed by 27 membersof the House Foreign Affairs Commit-tee, said 'The United States must con-demn and rally world pressure againstcurrent Syrian and WLO actions inLebanon in order to sustain stability inthe Middle East." It asked for a "com-prehensive and coordinated" U.S.Policy.

The difficulties in finding a lastingsolution stem from the fact thatLebanon, about the size of Connec-ticut, has become a microcosm ofMiddle East problems. It is a major siteof Palestinian refugee camps and thePLO uses Lebanon as a base of attacksagainst Israel. This in turn has spawnedcounterattacks into Lebanon by Israel.

MILWAUKEE (NO -Representatives ofsix dioceses and three religious ordersmeeting recently in Milwaukee took astep closer to the realization of aregional college seminary that maybecome the first of its kind in thenation.

Meeting at St. Francis de SalesSeminary, the project's board' oftrustees, composed of representativesappointed by the bishops of thedioceses and the provincial superiorsof the religious orders, voted to useDe Sales as the site of the newseminary unless a more appropriatesite is agreed on by May 1.

An ad hoc committee appointedby Archbishop Rembert Weaklandrecommended establishing acooperative, residential. self-contained regional seminary, ratherthan one limited to seminarians of thearchdiocese.

At present, about 3,000 students areenrolled in 50 college seminaries inthe United States. Father Pakenhamnoted that dividing the number ofstudents by the number of seminariesindicates that the average number ofseminarians enrolled in each in-stitution is only 20. The currentresidential enrollment at St. Francis deSales is 45.

The resulting cost of operation -ranging from $6,000 to $20,000 perstudent in various seminaries - hasforced some dioceses and religiousorders to close their seminaries andhave their seminarians enroll in otherprograms.

Fathre Finucan told those at themeeting that there is "considerable in-terest natinawide" in the regionalcollege seminary project. 'There is noother project like this in the UnitedStates," he said. "The country is wat-ching us for a model".

Black encyclopedia good referenceThe Encyclopedia of Black America,W. Augustus Low and Virgil A. Gift,Editors, McGraw-Hill, 1981, 921pages, $49.50.

By Paulette M. MartinThe Encyclopedia of Black America is

an attempt to summarize and highlightthe contributions of the black man inAmerican history.

The entire Encyclopedia takes a look"at our country's past and present inalmost every aspect imaginable(business, industry, politics, socialreform, religion, education, the arts,science, sports, etc.) and chronicles

• the role that blacks have had in theseareas. The easy to read format is wellcro$s-referenced and uses black andwhite photographs to enhance thetext.

Of particular interest is the sectionpertaining to the involvement ofblacks in the Catholic Church inAmerica. The earliest references toblack Catholics in the United Statesaccording to the Encyclopedia of BlackAmerica, was in a letter from the firstnative born Catholic Bishop, JohnCarroll, to the Pope in 1785. BishopCarroll wrote that of the "15,800Catholics, about 3,000 were of African

origin/called Negroes."Other little known facts about black

Catholics include the establishment ofthe first catechistic school for blackCatholics in 1796; the first order ofblack nuns organized in Baltimore in1827; and a Freedman's Bureau foun-ded by an order of black nuns to helpmake the transition from slavery tofree citizen after the Civil War.

The entry on blacks and the Catholic •Church continues with a summary ofthe contributions of black members ofthe church and how the Church inAmerica has incorporated many

aspects of black culture to reflect thepresence of blacks as members.

This book serves as an excellentreference for background informationon individuals and organizations thatare the newsmakers of today in blackaffairs.

The editors of the Encyclopedia ofBlack America, W. Augustus Low,Ph.D., and Virgil A. Clift, Ph.D., haveproduced a concise, informative andsignificant reference that can well ser-ve as a supplement to any standardencyclopedia for home and schooluse.

Leaders are taught not born

By Father Philip J. Murnion

Some people are born leaders.Jhe rest of ushave to learn how to be leaders.

Few people consider themselves leaders. Yet, ifwe considff leadership in terms of helping othersact, most of us do this sometime during our life.

What goes into leadership? Certainly, vision ranks

of love; a vision which gives Christians the power toovercome death. Yet this vision needs to bedescribed in a way that can be grasped easily bypeople, and it needs to be translated into very con-crete terms.

To do this, leaders have to work in relationshipwith people. They need to know the needs andhopes and fears of the people they work with soclosely. y

For leaders, vision alone isn't enough. Nor arerelationships with people. Without the relation-ships, vision remains on the organizational level.But even with many relationships, when vision islacking, the needs of many people in the com-munity may be overlooked.Leadership also involves skills. There are some few

people who come by these skills naturally. Thesepeople have a "knack;" we say. But, for the mostpeople, skills can be learned and improved.

Let's look at skills that are valuable in parish life.These include: teaching, counseling, organizing andcommunicating. Other skills involve the ability toplan, resolve conflict, manage personnel, buildingand rnoney. Still others might include the ability toconsole and challenge others.

From this cursory Took at skills, it is obvious thatwe should involve many people in parish life, for noone person can have all these abilities. It is clear

high: the ability to see what might be. For if a per-son is able to see various possibilities, he or she canhelp others see them too.

In a parish, the basic Vision is that of faith. It is avision of new freedom which sees the possibilities

also that people in leadership positions should con-tinue to improve their skills.

Have you ever been frustrated because a grouphasn't figured out what skills it needs to accomplisha given task? Or, have you attended meetingswhere the agenda was not clear or responsibilitieswere ill-defined? The lack of good meeting skills canquickly dampen people's enthusiasm andwillingness to do their part. -

Again, have you ever been in a group wherepeople did not really listen to one another? Orwhere a few people made decisions that servedonly to alienate other people of good will?

For such reasons, many parishes are sponsoring

"For leaders vision alone isn't enough.Nor are relationships with people. Withoutthe relationships, vision remains on theorganization level. But even with manyrelationships, when vision is lacking, theneeds of many people in the communitymay be overlooked.

leadership training programs. They have found thatoffering people help in becoming leaders will leadmore of them to involvement in parish activities.For people often need encouragement to take onleadership roles. And the presence of skillsprograms helps people to see they can improvetheir ability as leaders.

As they work on leadership skills, parishes andtheir people can draw upon spiritual directorseducators, and others with expertise to hejp inbecoming better equipped to carry out the parish'svision.

Sometimes parishes can look for help to theirdioceses. Some dioceses offer regular leadershiptraining sessions to sisters, priests, lay people andseminarians to help prepare them for ministry onthe parish level.

From my experience as. director of the U.S.bishops' Parish Project, parishes greatly increase thechances for accomplishing their objectives byworking regularly on skills.

When St. Paul described the early church, hepointed out how various people are given gifts bythe Spirit to be teachers or administrators orprophets. All the gifts are needed, he wrote, andthe Spirit intends these gifts for the work ,of thechurch. Parishes too need to know their gifts and touse them well.

To use skills'in parish leadership is to use the giftswe have been given - or have acquired.

Laity develop important role in parishBy Leonore KellyNC News Service

Shirley Mpriarity is not surprised at the way therole of the laity has developed at the Church of theRisen Christ in Denver, Colo., during its 13 years asa parish.

"In parish life today," Mrs. Moriarity said, "you seestaff and parishioners working together, supportingeach other, reaching out and listening to eachother."

After years of being an active parishioner, Mrs.Moriarity in July 1980, joined, the parish staff as afull-time pastoral assistant. "The church has alwaysbeen the center of my life>" she comments, "but -now it has become even more important." In herposition, she works with the elderly, previouslymarried people and with scripture study programs.

Mrs. Moriarity likes the way in which newprograms are developed today in the parish. "Nowthe emphasis is on people," she says. Years ago, thestaff decided which programs the. parish shouldsponsor. "Now they go out and talk to parishionersand listen to them. Eventually, a program is builtaround the needs which have been uncovered,"

, she remarks.


Mrs. Moriarity has followed that approach herselfwith senior citizens and finds they are thrilled withthe results. Formerly, she thinks, no one was givingleadership to elderly people who were not sick.Through her efforts, the elderly now can join a veryactive Silverado Club which meets regularly forclasses, Yoga and crafts. She also arranged for theelderly of the parish to "hook into" the Denver bussystem for special transportation to numerous areacultural and social activities.

Mrs. Moriarity looks forward to addressing theneeds of the increasing number of divorced,separated and widowed members of the parish."Just When you start one program, you see anothersegment of the parish that needs attention," shesays:

Another longtime parishioner, Bette Anderson,has been involved in religious education for a num-ber of years and recently has published a bookletoutlining a program for studying Scripture. So it wasnatural last summer tor the new pastor, Msgr.William Jones, to turn to Mrs. Anderson to explorepossibilities in this area.

With help from the pastor and Mrs. Moriarity,Mrs. Anderson adapted her program to fit parishneeds, devising a 28-week course of scrupture

study. An ecumenical program, only half the 150participants are parishioners.

According to Mrs. Moriarity, members meetweekly and listen to an address by an invitedspeaker who may be a Catholic or Protestantminister. Then the audience breaks into groups of10 members each for discussion led by trainedleaders. Few have dropped out, even though

. members are expected to spend several hoursstudying the Bible at home to prepare to take partin the discussions.

Mrs. Anderson believes an important ingredient inthe program's success is the pastor's verbal en-couragement. "People need to know that aprogram has the OK of the pastor," says Mrs. An-

. derson, adding, "Msgr. Jones is great for giving a paton the back.". She also thinks, "There are many talented people

in parishes who are willing to be involved if they areasked and then given" encouragement. "Parish-ioners should let the staff know their experiencesand talents," she feels.

Msgr. Jones concludes, "The greatest consolationI have experienced at this parish is the support andprayerfulness of the parish community. They lookat the pastor as one who works and prays withthem in a God-centerd way."

KNOW YOUR FAITH

A pastorin action

By DAVID GIBSONThe pastor's ministry is not exclusive. Everyone in

the parish is his rone ernOt course, the pastor is not the only one >n a

parish with such a lole. But the non-exclusiveaspect ot a pastor's job seems espec lally notable.

the pastor finds he is asked to gi\e tune to peoplewho want to liMrn to prav. to rcvn-.igt-rs whowant to carry out a role ot Christian service; topeople who want to study the c hurch's sacramentsor the Bible: to the aged who want to contribute ac-tivelv to the parish community.

A special challenge tor pastois is found in theparish's hope to become a better community Theformation ot community mav seem an elusive goalRet ently, however. I attended a retreat given by m\

"The pastor finds he is asked to give timeto people who want to learn to pray; toteenagers who want to carry out a role ofChristian service, to people who want tostudy the church's sacraments or the Bible,to the aged who want to contribute ac-tively to the parish community.

pastor in the parish rectory. One goal was todevelop a better sense of the parish as a com-munity.

During the weekend, the retreatants listened totalks by the pastor. They broke up into small groupsto tell why they are Catholics, what they think theirstrengths and weaknesses are as Catholics, whythey care about their church.To aid this, the pastor and retreatants worked, for

an entire weekend, at learning to recognize eachparticipant's gifts — each person's different ways ofcontributing to the community's life.

A pastor's day might begin with morning mass and end with a parish council meeting. Butin between he travels from the rectory to the hospital to the school and to the homes

of parishioners, with a multitude of phone calls sandwiched into his day.

— One young couple had the gift of youth - a giftwhich, when youth are absent from the parish, isstrongly missed by many members.

- One man 1 had seen in the parish for years, butwith whom I had never spoken except to say"hello," possessed a special gift. For when I heardhim speak about faith in hjs calm, mature way, herevealed to me all the unknown depths of our

parish. His gift, I felt, was to make clear what theweekend was about.

This article, however, is not primarily about myretreat. It is about the demands placed on pastorsto fulfill a role that is non-exclusive. And it tells astory about one pastor who helped lead hisparishioners to act in non-exclusive ways by learningto find the gifts of Christ in all the members oftheir community.

By Father John J. Castelot• iMatthew was faced with a new situation. His task called forhim to reoganize the traditional material about Jesus, forpresentation to his community.

He respected the general outline of the material about Jesusas drawn up by Mark. But within that framework, Matthewmoved with great freedom and originality and came up with aquite different presentation.

However, Matthew did not include with his Gospel a tableof contents. As a result, scholars have had to try to figure outwhat structure Matthew had in mind fo this Gospel byanalizing the text itself. Not unexpectedly, different scholarssee a different structure or organization in the Gospel. Only afew of their suggested outlines, however, have gainedwidespread acceptance.

Perhaps the most popular is the outline suggested by theAmerican scholar, Benjamin Bacon. He observed that thesame refrain, in almost identical words, occurs five times inthe Gospel, each time as a conclusion to a long discourse ofJesus.

Its first appearance is at the end of the Sermon on theMount in Chapter 7: "Jesus finished this discourse and left thecrowds spellbound at his teaching. The reason was that hetaught with authority."

On the basis of this observation, Bacon concluded that thebody of the Gospel was structured along the lines of fivebooklets, each one made up of a narrative that leads to a longinstruction by Jesus.

His theory tied in nicely with Matthew's obvious concern forhis Jewish-Christian readers: The five booklets would thenparallel the five books of the Jewish Law called the Pen-tateuch (five scrolls) which introduce the Old testament.Jesus, then, could be seen as the new Moses, promulgating anew Torah.

According to Bacon's view, the body of Matthew's Gospelwas introduced by a prologue which is found in Chapters 1

and 2, where we read of the birth of Jesus and his infancy.Bacon also thought the Gospel concluded with an epiloguemake up of the passion, death and resurrection accounts. Theprologue would be a gitting introduction, not only to themain themes of the Gospel but also to its structure, for the in-fancy section is built around five explicit Old Testamentcitations.

Attractive and well-grounded though Bacon's proposal is, ithas its flaws. Perhaps the greatest weakness in Bacon'sproposal lies in relegating the all-important chapters on thepassion, death and resurrection of Christ to the status of anepilogue. Surely they are more than that!

But, in spite of its weakness, the proposal has its merits, ifonly because it call our attention to the care with which Mat-thew drew up his presentation.

The structure of Matthew's Gospel interests people,because we are so certain that Matthew had a structure inmind.

If we follow this idea of five booklets within the Gospel ofMatthew, we are likely to find that in each booklet, Matthewis presenting thoughts about the kingdom of God, with eachbooklet developing some aspect of that theme.

Booklet 1 would be found in Chapters 3:1 to 7:29. Here isthe chapter of the kingdom.

Booklet 11: Chapters 8:1 to B//;/. The dynamic of thekingdom is a focus.

Booklet III: Chapters 11:2 to 13:53, on the mystery of thekingdom.

Booklet IV: Chapters 13:54 to 19:1a. Matthew discusses theconduct of the kingdom.

Booklet V: Chapters 19:1b to 26:2. The consummation ofthe reign is Matthew's concern.

While Matthew does not identify the kingdom as the church,quite-obviousiy he sees the two as related.

Especially tor this reason, his Gospel has been called theGospel of the church. . •

NEW YORK (NC) - The three storygray-stone ex-convent on AstoriaBoulevard hardly looks like agreenhouse.

Flowers with Care was started byFather James A. Harvey, 36, a chaplainat the Queen House of Detention, andRobert Pallister, the owner of a smallflorist shop.

The success of Flowers with Care, anaffiliate of Brooklyn Catholic Charities,has been spectacular. More than 73former first offenders have gonethrough the program. Of these, 71have been placed in permanent jobs

Local parishes use florists affiliatedwith Flowers with Care when ob-taining flowers for their altars.

When Pope John Paul II visited SheaStadium in New York in 1979 Flowerswith Care employees of local floristsset out hundreds of chrysanthemusand gladioli to adorn the papal altararea.

The modestly decorated Flowerswith Care administrative offices,dedicated by Bishop Francis J.Mugaveri of Brooklyn in February, isstaffed by five workers, includingDominican Sister Patricia Bryant, for-mer principal of St. Margaret's School inNew York.

"They want to learn" Sister Bryantsaid of the students who are catchingup on high school courses they missedearlier. "They recognize this is the shotthey will.get that will help them the restof their lives. They're bright, but theyneed a feeling of self-worth," she said.

"The light we can offer them at theend of the tunnel is employment," sheadded. "It's a desperately neededprogram."

According to Father Harvey, the ideais simple and could be implementedanywhere nationwide and adopted toother businesses as weil.

Father Harvey's florists-to-be are of-ten city kids who hardly know a dan-delion from a begonia. As first offen-ders they may have been picked up

for shoplifting, burglary, Illegalpossession.of a weapon or prostitutionand spent some time briefly behindbars.

A firm criterion for those enteringthe program is that the first offendershould not have been dependent ondri/gs or alcohol for six monthspreviously and should want to completeprograms the Greenhouse offers. Mostnewcomers are what Father Harvey calls"Throaway kids." One was in trouble forhaving stolen food from a grocery storein order to survive in the city.

Veterans from the Knights ofColumbus and Catholic War Veteransas well as people from a telephonecompany group have helped irtutoring the youths aged 16-24, anoin fundraising for the agency.

It operates on a budget of $50,000, ofwhich $21,000 is from Catholic Cha-rities.

Father Harvey can point to successstories:

"Five kids own their own stores," hesaid, with a grin. He described theway "something happens" when ayoung person is shown how toproduce something of beauty. "Manykids have never had the satisfaction ofgiving a flower he has grown in a potwith dirt in it to someone who ap-preciates his work," the priest said.

Libertad sin limiteses unailusion,dice el Papa

. Por Jerry FilteauVaticano (NC) - Libertad sin

limites es una ilusion y lagenuina libertad debe estarbasada en la Verdad, dijo elPapa Juan Pablo II a mas de5,000 estudiantes universita-rios cat6licos que participan enuna convencion de diez dias enRoma, titulada "UNIV 81", yquienes provienen de unas 400universidades catolicas de todoel mundo, La convencion fuepatrocinada por el InstitutoPara Cooperacion Universitariaque auspicia el Opus Dei, unainstitucion internacional conmas de 80,000 miembros laicosy religiosos, quienes han con-traido el compromiso de hacerde su vida diaria, cornoprafesionales y hombres denegocios, un testimonio de losprincipios del Evangelic

"Cuando el hombre esprogramado y hecho objeto deuna arbitraria reduccidn de sfmismo, concebido y llevado a

ser encapsulado en las necesi-dades y el consumerismo deuna sociedad materialista, alfinal acaba rebelandose," dijoel Papa.

"Sin conocer las verdaderasraices de sus males, da riendasuelta a su furor ciegamente. Seconvierte en instrumento deuna violencia sin sentido."

El Santo Padre dijo que la an-tiquisima pregunta "^Que es laVerdad?", ocupa una "posicionprivilegiada" en los ambitosuniversitarios; y al mismo tiem-po no hay otra interroganteque "cree tanta perplejidad eindiferencia en la sociedad ac-tual, debilitada por elpragmatismo que tiende atraducir asuntos tan fundamen-ta ls a terminos completamen-te diferentes^ 'jPara que sirve laverdad? Asf empobrecida, lacuestion no produce ya interesalguno en el hombre".

"La verdad unica, verdadera,que hace al hombre libre, se

encuentra en el cristianismo",dijo ,el Papa. "Cristo dice: 'LaVerdad te hara libre.' La Verdadque El le anuncia al hombre noes una abstraccion sino una Luzque se derrama sobre nuestravida. Es El mismo quienproclama 'Yo soy el Camino, laVerdad y la Vida.' El es la guiahacia una vida libre de lasrestricciones del egoismo y dela manipulacibn social".

Juan Pablo II conmino a losestudiantes universitarios "a in-tegrar las verdades de partis(las de las varias ciencias) con lasuprema verdad; a integrar laverdad con la responsabilidadmoral en una fir-me unidad devida cristiana".

"La verdad de Dios y del.hombre revelada en Cristo",dijo, "es la Onica perspectivapor la cual la libertad de lanumanidad se hace ver-daderamente una realidad, asaber, libre de las limitacionesde la maldad". S.S.Juan Pablo II

Asi debenOrar: "Padre Nuestro... i f

Aunque sin pedir el permiso de Renede Troyban, contando con su benevo-lencia y con la anuencia de Aquel quenos mando "predicar la Buena Nueva atodos los pueblos" nos atrevemos areproducir aqui, extractandola, la her-mosa "Meditacion" que Rene publicaraen la revista Militante del MovimientoCursillos de Cristiandad.

Por Rene de Troyban

El Hijo del Hombre "recorria toda laGalilea, ensenando en las sinagogas.Predicaba la Buena Nueva del Reino ysanaba las dolencias y enfermedades dela gente"...

Sus disdpulos se le acercaron...-Maestro, ensenanos a orar.Y Jesus les ensefia: "Cuando reces en-

tra en tu pieza, cierra la puerta y reza atu Padre que esta adentro contigo...ustedes tienen que orar asi:

"Padre nuestro que estas en loscielos, santificado sea tu nombre.Venga tu reino, hagase tu voluntad en latierra como en el cielo. Danos hoynuestro pan de cada dia, perdonanuestras ofensas como tambiennosotros perdonamos a los que nosofenden. No nos dejes caer en la ten-tacion y libranos del mal".

Es e| mismo Dios mostrandonos lamanera de dirigirnos a El.

Es curioso que desde cualquier aspec-to que analicemos la oracion elresultado es circular: la oracidn procedede la fe, alimenta la fe y nos lleva a la fe;la oracion es la esperanza hecha ruego,suscita esa esperanza y se convierte enpromesa de esperanza; la oracion es elamor del Padre que se deja sentir ennuestro dentro, es amor que va denosotros hacia . El en constantemovimiento, Y si la oracion es fe,esperanza y amor, es tambienhumildad, entrega, plenitud espiritual,comunion delo humano y lo divino.

En la oracion que Cristo nos lego hayuna sintesis de los sentimientos esen-ciales que nos deben lleva'r a esacomunicacion Intima con el Padre, nosmuestra el concepto perfecto que Jesusquiere que tengamos en nuestrasrelaciones con El.

PADRE NUESTROAl decir Padre Nuestro nos estamos

llamando, no solo hijos de Dios, sinoque nos estamos llamando hermanos.No es Dios mi padre ni tu padre, esnuestro padre; y nos realizamos comofamilia humana, unida bajo un solo fun-damento, Su Amor, que por obra deJesus nos solidariza en hermandad queconstruye nuestra sociedad cristiana, aveces tan disgregada.

Al decir Padre Nuestro no solamenteidentificamos a Dios como Padresupremo y absoluto, sino que nos iden-tificamos ante El como hijos; y noscomprometemos a compartir ese amorcomo hermanos. Es mas, las sietepeticiones de la oraci6n han sidojustamente consideradas como "unejercicio de amor a los hettfeanos".

QUE ESTAS EN LOS C1ELOS"Los ciefos son los cielos de Dios, y la

tierra se'la did a los hijos de los hom-bres". Salmo115.

El Universo es constancia de unasabiduria y una prevision que va mucho

mas alia de la facultad humana: s6lo deun Ser Supremo puede emanar. La ar-monia universal, inalterable y eterna, esDios mismo.

Y multiplicando interminablementelas estructuras siderales es que yo con-cibo el infinito, en cuyo centra brilla elSol de soles, el Geador, con su onmi-presencia, su amor inconmesurable,paternal. Dios esta, ocupa y constituye loscielos. Dios es nuestro mundp, la luz yel calor que le dan vida, es el fuego, y elagua. Dios es el arbol, y la flor. Y esprecisamente en estas pequenasmaravillas de la creacidn que yo megozo en encontrar a Dios, milagros que .se repiten de modo natural: nubes quese pintan del sol poniente; ana flor queabre sus petalos en la mafiana; unamanita suave y tierna que por primeravez se aferra a nuestro dedo; milagrosdeamorydebel leza.

El cielo, asiento de Dios. El cielo, quepuede ser nuestro aqui en la tierra, si enlos cielos esta Dios, y Dios esta connosotros.

SANTIFICADO SEA TU NOMBRE'Alaben al Senor pdrque El es bueno,

cantele salmos, porque es bueno".Salmo135

Se santifica el nombre de Dios cum-pliendo sus leyes, que son sabias yjustas; acatando con humildad su volun-tad paterna. Se santifica el nombre deDios alabandole porque a nuestrorededor todo proclama su poder y su

' bondad, para con nosotros, por s,u in-finito amor, por su misericordia excelsa.Es ciego el que no la reconoce hasta enlas mas pequenas cosas, autosuficienteel que no lo glorifica, ingrato el que nole da gracias en todo momento.

Dios nos ha creado a su imagen ysemejanza, santif iquemosle comoCreador. Dios nos ama como a hijos,santifiquemosle como Padre; Dios noscuida con solicitud que no merecemosy nos premia con galardones que noganamos, santificado sea comomisericordioso. Si nos humilla, si nossomete a duras pruebas, santificado seacomo el Altisimo, y porque al mismotiempo nos fortalece y nos consuela,santificado sea como fuerza Absoluta,santificado sea como Consolador. jSan-tificado seas, oh, Padre! porque nospremiarias con tu presericia al final denuestro peregrinar hacia Ti por elcamino de Jesus.

VENGA TU REINO..."Cambien su vida y su corazon,

porque esta cerca el reino de loscielos". Mateo 2:3

El sublime secreto de la oracion, suaspiraci6n fundamental, es el logro delreino de. Dios. Es lamentable, sin em-bargo, que las mas de las veces vivamoscon un falso idealismo y equivoquemosla relacion que guardan nuestros deseoscon ese reino prometido. Debemosestar conscientes de que "venga anosotros tu reino" no es un esperarpasivo, sino un ansia de que nuestras in-tenciones, esfuerzos, sacrificios, renuh-cias, y sumision a la voluntad divina seveah realizadas en la consecucion deese reino de amor, de paz y de justicia.

"Mi reino no es de este mundo". Peroyo diria que parte de ese reinopodemos hacerlo nuestro aqui en la

tierra: trabajando por "la causa deJesus, caminado por Su senda/siendoapostoles de su palabra, viviendo comohermanos y apropiandonos un poco deese amor, de esa paz y esa justicia queson patrimonio del reino de los cielos.

HAGASE TU VOLUNTADEN LA TIERRA COMO EN EL CIELO...Aqui estoy para cumplir tu voluntad".

Hebreos10:9Si la obediencia es un deber del hijo

para con su padre, cuanto mas debe serla del hombre para Aquel que con susoplo le infundio vida y un alma que eseterna. La voluntad de Dios es quecumplamos en la tierra con sus leyes, ynos sometamos con plena confianza asus designios, como se someten losbienaventurados en los cielos.

Estamos seguros que en Dios hay unavoluntad absoluta que no se aviene anuestros deseos (No siempre nuestrosdeseos son de su agrado), y otra volun-tad condicional que tiende a serflexible, que tiencje a satisfacer nuestraspeticiones, condicionada a lo quemas nos conviene. Y sobre todo,estamos seguros que en Dios hay unavoluntad explicable con acceso a

. nuestro ehtendimiento, y dtra voluntadinexplicable que escapa a nuestroraciocinio, ya que no nos es dado elprofundizar en sus- decretos. Ni a Cristole fue permitido revelarnos toda la ver-dad que hay en Dios.

Debemos, pues, entregarnos a El, sinreservas, sin rebelion, con todos losrecursos que nuestra fe nos propor-ciona...que nuestro amor nos garantiza.Nuestra peticion puede ser deseable oindeseable, puede redundar en nuestrobeneficio fisico o espiritual o el denuestros hermanos, o por el contrariova a resultar en perjuicio nuestro Q el denuestros semejantes. Y sin aceptar esaverdad.

"Padre, si esta copa no puede serapartada de mi sin que yo la beba, quese haga tu voluntad".

DANOS HOY NUESTRO PAN DE CADADIA...

"no solo de pan vive el hombre, sino detoda palabra que sale de la boca de

Dios". Deuteronomio 8:3^El pan corporal o el pan del espiritu?

Ambos. El pan terrenal para nuestrocuerpo, hoy. Mariana pediremos el demafiana. El alimento del alma, hoy ysiempre. Jesus sabia que se quedarfa en-tre nosotros para nosotros en laEucaristia; para todos los hombres detodos los siglos.

Pedir a Dios el pan de cada dia llevaintrinsecamente la certeza de quedependemos de El. Dependemos de Elpara suplir nuestras necesidades cor-porales y para fortalecer nuestroespiritu. y para coronar sus cuidadosnos relaga a su hijo cofho pan de vida."El que viene a mi nunca tendra ham-bre, el que cree en mi nunca tendrased". "Yo soy el pan vivo bajado delcielo, el que coma de este pan vivirapara siempre".

t PERDONA NUESTRAS OFENSAS COMOTAMBIEN NOSOTROS PERDONAMOS

A LOS QUE NOS OFENDEN..."Y cuando se pongan de pie para orar, sitienen algo contra alguien, perdonenlo

para que el padre de ustedes, que estaef) los cielos, les perdone tambien sus

faltas". Marcos 11:25-26.

Miramos en nuestro adentro y lo quevemos no nos agrada: el mal quehemos hecho o el bien que hemosdejado de hacer, no santificamos sunombre, nos negamos a expandir su'reino, nos rebelamos a su voluntad, nos

' aferramos al pecado y nos obstinamdsen no rehuir la tentacion. Y nosatrevemos a pedir su perdon. Y en sumagnanimidad Dios nos^ perdona. "Yotampoco te condeno. Vete y no vuelvasa pecar en adelante". Amar es perdonary perdonar es amar. No cabe el rencor yla venganza en un corazon que estalleno de amor a Dios y al projimo.'^Como no perdonarte, sT "no sabes loque haces"? Compasion siento de ti queaesconoces a Dios, que no sabes de suamor ni de su perdon, que llega hastanosotros como "una agua pufa que nospurifica".

NO NOS DEJES CAER EN LA TENTAdON..."Esten despiertos y orando para que nocaigan en tentacion: el espiritu esanimoso; pero la carne es debil".

Mateo 26:41.Todos somos susceptibles a la ten-

tacion, jovenes o viejos, ricos o pobres,sabios o ignorantes. La rjqueza, es cier-to, abre muchos caminos al pecado:pero la pobreza, y no es menos cierto,presenta a menudo pie para odios, en-vidias, desesperacion, que son puertasabiertas a cometer faltas no menosexecrabJes. La tentacion es para ven-cerla, como la sed para ser saciada.

La tentacion nos robustece porquedescubre nuestras debilidades internas,proporcionando de esa manera nuestroprogreso como cristianos. La tentacionnos sale al paso cada minuto de nuestravida: pero ahi esta el Cordero de Dios;su fortaleza sera nuestra. El quita lospecados del mundo y did su sangreparaello.

^Que no puedes veneer la tentacion?En el momento que sientas flaquear suresistencia, cierra los oios y oye elprimer golpe del martillo que clava lamano de Cristo a su cruz, siente sudolor. Dime si ese golpe no hace eco entu corazon. Abre los ojos. No eres yacapaz de ofender al que ofrece supasidn por amor a ti. •>. .

LIBRANOS DEL MAL"No te pido que los saques del mundosino que los libres del mal". Juan 17:15

Dios es fuente inagotable del bien. Losmales que nos aqueian son, pues, con-secuencia legitima de nuestras propiasfaltas, de, nuestros propios errores. Elmal es cautiverio y el bien es libertad. LaHave que nos libera es el Verbo hechocarne, Cristo Jesus.

Estamos ahora a los pies del Senor, enel monte, y escuchamos de sus labios elcamino que nos traza con sus ensefian-zas. La Buena Nueva abre nuestroshorizontes y una luz que emana de surostro marca el camino de nuestraredencion. Y con las manos unidas, dela mano de Jesus, "nos atrevemos adecir:"

Padre nuestro, que estas en los cielos,santificado sea tu nombre... AMEN.

25 Familias Asisten al Impacto N°61PorJoseP. Alonso

Hoy dia, Miami y el mundoentero, esta viviendo una crisisen la cual juega un papel muyimportante la juventud deso-1

rientada y, contesemoslo sin-ceramente, la familia es un tan-to responsable del estado pre-sente de la sociedad.

Es verdad, justo es tambiemreconocerlo, que muchas fami-lias han dado a su hijos elmejor ejemplo moral en sushogares y los han provisto deoptima calidad. Sin embargo, ycon todas estas buenas con-diciones, algunos padres sepreguntan ^en que hemosrallado nosotros? La falla estaen el ambiente fuera del hogar,en la respuesta en lacomunicacion y la compren-sion del caracter y per-sonalidad de los muchachos.Porque cada generacion, esti-mulada por el progreso, es dis-tinta de la anterior, y esto hasido mas palpable desde la de-cada de los cincuenta.

Siempre ha sido una tareadificil ser buen padre y buenamadre. Los peligros que ace-chan al joven con poca prepa-racion son muchos y mucnospadres se preguntan quepueden hacer contra esteenemigo invisible ydesconocido.

Un dfa unos cuantosmatrimonios j6venes prepfcupados por tal interrogate,se dieron a la tarea de buscaruna solucion al enigma.Despues de largas horas dereflexidn, analisis y preparacidnllevaron a cabo una reuni6nque - dio muy buenosresultados, no solo en Jas—relaciones con sus ninos, sinotambien en la relaci6n matri-monial. Este fue el nacimientode Impacto, un movimientocatdlico que se preocupa por la •familia desde su comienzo,desde que el nino empieza asentir curiosidad por el mundoque le rodea. Este Movimientofue fundado en Febrero de1973.

Con la experiencia de lasprimeras reuniones del grupoque lo originara, le dio forma ynombre: Impacto. El nombrefu6 producto del impactorecibido por aquellos matrimo-nios ante los primeros resulta-dos. Impacto es un programade dos dfas, Sabadb y Domingode 9 a.m. a 6 p.m. al que acudetoda la familia, padres e hijosde tres a 11 anos, (si \ds ninosson menores de tres anos es

recomendable dejarlos con losabuelos u otro familiar) y cuen-ta con la guia espiritual de unsacerdote experimentado, elRev. P. Ricardo Castellanos.

El programa sabiamentepreparado consta de charlas yactividades interesantisimas,sobre el matrimonio, la familiay los hijos. A los ninos se les hapreparado un programa dejuegos y entretenimientosmezclados con ideas basicas y

practicas sobre. la familia y susmiembros, que hacen las horasmuy cortas para ellos. Es unaexperiencia unica, que los llevaa la reunion mensual que sigueal Imoacto con ansias de com-partir su alegrfa y entusiasmo. -

Al final de la Jornada esinevitable la exposition de tes-timonios. En este ultimo impac-to hemos visto a una jovenpareja, con serias dificultades,

caer llorosos uno en brazos delotro, confesando que "entreustedes hemos encontrado lasolucion que creiamos noexistfa". Fueron emocionanteslos testimonios ofdos.

Estimamos que Impacto esuno, sino el unico, de los quemas promete para losmatrimonios que comienzan suvida de familia pasada ya laluna de miel. Lo recomen-dambs de todo corazon.
