FATIMA, Portugal (CNS) ­The pope's early-May visit to Por­tugal turned into a ~~lute to Maryand showedthe continuing strengthof Marian "evotion among Catho­lics.

Traveling to the Azores and toFatima for the four-day papal visitwere Bishop Daniel A. Cronin anddiocesan chancellor Msgr. John J.Oliveira. As far as can be deter­mined, Bishop Cronin, invited byBishop Aurelio Granada of thediocese of Angra, Azores, was the~nly U.S. bishop in attendance.

pope John Paul II thanked Maryfor freeing Eastern Europeans from

,communist rule, protecting thechurch against decades of com­munist repression and saving hislife 10 years ago in an assassina­tion attempt.

Mary also was entrusted withthe tasks of helping the rebirth of aChristian Europe and orientingtoward God contemporary gener­ations lost to religion.

Europe must find its Christian

roots, otherwise it could fall to anew "theoretical and practicalatheism which appears to want tobuild a new materialistic society,"said the pope to the Portuguesebishops May 13.

This form of atheism praisesfreedom but "tends to destroy theroots of human and Christianmorals," he added later in the dayat a ceremony entrusting churchconcerns to Mary's care.

The pope's two public events atFatima, site of one of Cathol­icism's most popular Marianshrines, drew more than 1 millionpeople, while attendance at theother events was measured in thetens of thousands.

Also during the May 10-13 trip,the pope praised 500 years of Por­tuguese missionary history, callingthe country the "pulpit ofthe Gos­pel" because its seaborne explora­tion and colonizing expeditions,starting in the 15th century, brought

the moorins.-,Concern for the Elderly

In a throwaway society one particular group is on theendangered species list: the elderly. Society's utilitarian viewsays "if it doesn't work, get rid of it." Like cookout utensils,persons who have reached a certain stage are considered nolonger functional and therefore disposable. As a result of thisattitude, our senior citizens are being treated with indifferenceat best and contempt at worst.

Few should be surprised by this reality. If we can legalize' thedeath of unborn humans, then eliminating others whomsociety considers a burden is only a step away. Some politicalleaders have, in fact, supported euthanasia of those who are aburden to the state as a means of balancing budgets.

Much attention is given the abortion issue and the right tolife; yet many who are adamant about protecting the lives ofinfants are shortsighted with regard to other life, particularlythat of the elderly. '

This narrow view has led to a one-sided vision of basic lifeissues.Certainly~we who believe that life is a gift of God mustdo everything we can to support it from its very 'beginning.

But we cannot stop the~e. Life is bigger than all of us. Itsspan of days, months or years cannot be mandated by society.Life is eternai, merely changed by death. This belief shouldspur us to speak out against all that threatens it. '

Care, protection and support of the elderly is an all­important life issue. Our senior citizens are suffering merelyfor living too long and needing special care. .

Much disregard' for the elderly begins with their families. Intheir attempt to live life to the fullest, many sons and daughtershave simply shipped their "burdensome" parent(s) to the localnursing home or, ifthey have money, to a retirement residence.They are out ofthe way, so the rest ofthe family does not haveto put up with them. Very often the only contact with an oldparent is via a florist's delivery on given holidays.

This utilitarian attitude has even led to the concept of the"quickie" wake - lest lifestyles be interrupted to grieve andmourn. Off to the crematorium and get it over quickly.

However, dispensing with such ri.tuals has led many survi­vors to the psychiatrist's couch.

The elderly and aged need our love and care, even if it'sdifficult and annoying to deal with the realities of the agingprocess. We must support programs and legislation designedto. ensure that the aged live out their allotted days with graceand dignity.

Families must develop attitudes and mindsets that helpthem cope with the frustrations and confusions that are part ofgrowing old. All must be sensitive and aware of the specialneeds ofthe elderly. The more we do for our own in this regard,the more we do for ourselves as we grow older.

Indeed, we would do well to recall the ancient folk tale of theman who banished his father from the family dinner tablebecause of his deteriorating \able manners. The old, man wasgiven a wooden bowl, marked so no one else would use it, andtold to eat alone in the cooking area of the house.

Some time later the man came upon his own son painstak­ingly carving asimilar bowl. When asked what he was doing, 'the little boy said innocently, "I'm making your bowl for whenyou will be eating alone." The Editor

EI Salvador trialto proceed

SAN SALVADOR (CNS) - EISalvador's Supreme Court of Jus­tice has ordered a lower court toproceed with the trial of nine sold- .iers accused in the November 1989slaying of six Jesuit priests, theirhousekeeper and her daughter.

In a ruling handed down May 8a tribunal of the court also rejectedan appeal for the release on bail ofthe accused soldiers which hadbeen presented by their families.

The decisions came asjury selec­tion in the trial in EI Salvador'sFourth Penal Court was set tobegin, paving the way for thebeginning of what will be the firstcivilian trial of military personnelon criminal charges in the coun-try's history. , ,

confusion, this commotion actu­ally helps bring people together.

This contradictory result of theSpirit's presence is also the basisfor Paul's famous I Corinthiansmeditation. Though. the Spirit'smany gifts should logically rip theChristian community apart, theapostle teaches that, "To each per­son the manifestation of the Spiritis given for the common good."Those who would limit their' giftsare actually harming the church.We need the spectacle of diversityin order to have the gift of unity.

It is no accident that John hasJesus link forgiveness and theSpirit's coming. "Receive the HolySpirit," he tells his disciples. "If .you forgive someone's sins, theyare forgiven them; if you holdthem bound, they are held bound."

We are never more illogical thanwhen we forgive those whom oth­ers hold bound. Reason tells usthat this conduct will eventuallydestroy the community's founda­tion. Evil-minded people will takeadvantage ofsuch weakness. Unlesswe "run a tight ship" we are headedfor destruction.

Jesus was often denounced forhis habit of forgiving. If we reallyare serious about following himwe must be willing to take thesame criticism as he. Only theSpirit can break through our natu­ral desire to be accepted by the"reasonable folk" who rarely for­give. And wonder of wonders, for­giveness is the one virtue whichholds us together as God's people.

It is so difficult to let the Spiritwork when we are arguing withsomeone. Any gesture of agree­ment or forgiveness immediatelymakes us look bad or weak. SomeProtestant communities still donot celebrate the Lord's Supperbecause oftheir reaction to Catho­lic abuses. And many Catholicsstill object to baptism by immer­sion because we do not want to beregarded as Protestants.

But we must be less worried. about what people say, and more

worried about what Jesus wants usto do. The Lord frequently expectsus to act unreasonably; otherwisehe wo.uld have never have given ushis Spirit.

Most Catholics are amazed todiscover that many of the argu­ments employed to support Eucha­ristic reform during Vatican II hadalready been used 400 years earlierduring the Council of Trent.

Long before Pope John XXIIIand our modern liturgical move­ment, bishops argued that the lan­guage and rituals of the Lord'sSupper should be changed. Theyeven complained of the mechani­cal, scandalous way in which many·priests celebrated the liturgy.

Why, then, did we have to waitfour centuries for the celebrationof the Eucharist to be substantiallyaltered? The minutes from Trentare very clear about the reason:Reformers had beaten us to thepunch. The bishops reasoned thatif they decreed significant ch'angesin the Lord's Supper at that time,it would be an admission that theProtestants had been correct.

There is need for much reflec­tion during the Pentecost celebra­tion. We human beings will alwaysbe prone to follow the dictates ofreason instead of the dictates ofGod·. A good public image - thebella figura - will often be moteimportant than imitating the mindof Jesus.

Early Christians knew they werecapable of giving in to such temp­tations. If they used only their own 'reasoning process to determineGod's will, they would eventuallymake some terrible mistakes. Thisis why they needed to rely so muchon the Holy Spirit. Only by givingthemselves over to him could theybe certain they were following Jesuscorrectly.

The Spirit's arrival completelydemolished the community's bellafigura. Luke tells us that the Spiritcame in a loud noise and strongwind. Tongues of fire rested on thedisciples, and they immediatelybegan to "make bold proclama­tion" in foreign tongues. Everyone- .in the neighborhood was attractedto the spectacle - and first impres­sions were not too kind. Thebrethren's behavior was so abnor­mal that most thought they weredrunk!

Yet this disturbing display otpower resulted in unifying the com­munity, not dividing it.

The pope in Lisbon expressed"my gratitude for the special pro­tection'of the Virgin Mother who'saved my life in the assassinationattempt 10 years ago."

The pope was seriously woundedin the attempt. Mehmet Ali Agca,a Turk, was captured at the sceneof crime and is currently serving alife sentence in Italy.

A year after Agca's assassina­tion attempt, the pope visitedFatima to thank Mary for savinghis life; but the event was marredby a second assassination attemptin which the pope was unhurt.

The pope also tied his reasonsfor visiting the Marian, shrine tothe overall message of the Fatimaapparitions, which he said was "aninvitation to conversion, to purifi­cation from sin, to prayer and toholiness in life."

The pope's emphasis on Mariandevotion drew immediate criticismfrom a Portuguese leader who saidit would hurt ecumenical contacts.

At the May 12 evening prayerservice in Fatima, the pope askedthe Portuguese to persist in theirMarian devotion because it helpsbring people closer to the "incom­prehensible richness of Christ."

"Help u~ in this desert withoutGod, where our generation andthe generation ofour children seemto be lost," the pope said tohundreds of thousands of peoplegathered at the shrine.

Mary also was asked to bless the,special Synod of Bishops for To all in the capacity audienceEurope to ~eet at the~nd of the' that enjoyed a 1986 "Priests foryear.

to three shepherd children. Thefirst apparition was on May 13and the anniversary is a majorprilgrimage date at Fatima.

At a May 12 outdoor eveningprayer service, the pope prayedbefore a piece of the bullet thatcritically wounded him 10 years'ago, also on a May 13. The bulletfragment was placed in the jeweledcrown atop the shrine statue ofOur Lady of Fatima.

The shrine grounds became anundulating sea of white handker­chiefs waved by the crowd whenthe pope appeared.

Well 'over 500,000 people heldup lit candles during the recitationof the rosary.

The pope quickly set the Mariantone of his visit in a May 10 arrivalspeech in the capital of Lisbon.

The aim of the trip was "to headfor Fatima, for a second time tothank Our Lady for the protectiongiven the chruch in these years,which have registered rapid andprofound social transformations/'the pope said.

These changes show "that newhopes are opening for many peo­ple oppressed by an atheisticideology which impeded the prac­tice of the faith," he added.

The pope told Christians to avoid, gloom and doom assessments about'"the disturbances which burn hereand there" causing a subversion ofvalues. Instead, Christians musttake advanta'ge of the changesoccurring throughout the world torefurbish the Christian foundationsof societies, he said in LisQI)O.

"This is not an old world whichis ending, this is a new world which'has begun," he said.

"A new dawn seems to be surg­iilg in the sky of history, invitingChristians to be tlie light and saltof a world which has enormousneed of Christ," he added.

The papal trip included stops inMadeira and the Azores, Atlanticislands which were jumping offplaces for Portuguese explorationsof the New World.

Almost 94 percent of Portugal's10.5 million people profess Catho­licism, according to the latest Vat­ican figures.

But the pope complained thatmany are marginal to the church.

The task now is to re-evangelize"this multitude of baptized peoplewho live far away from religiouspractice," he told the Portuguesebishops.

Otnerwise, Portuguese will be­come "vulnerable to secularismand sects," he added.

Calling for the seminarians tospend time daily before theBlessed Sacrament, BishopHughes asked them to reverenceboth the Eucharist and God'speople.

Jodoin and Peck are membersof the ordination class of 1993.

The duties of an acolyte includeassisting at Mass, distributing theEucharist and brinpng commun­ion to the sick. Since the SecondVatican Council, candidates forpriesthood are instituted into boththe ministries of acolyte andlector.

The issue of abortion is'a seriousone. The other day I heard that10,000 women die each year ofhaving abortions. I believe that ifyou give time to that embryo, it'llgrow into something wonderfulthat only love could have created.

Just like when you buy seeds toplant in a garden, if you give themtime to grow, they'll turn into themost. beautiful flowers. Peoplemay believe it's the woman's right,it's not. It's the human's right.God put us on this earth to .mul­tiply and to love and care for oneanother. and to spread the GoodNews.

My friends and teachers at St.Anne's elementary school tell me Ihave a talent to write, to movepeople by my writing. So I waswondering why can't I use my writ­ing talent to make a good changein the world. I knew I could praybut I needed togo one step further.My friends are behind me. That'swhy I said "the children are for thechildren."

more powerful than the weekend- a way of keeping that ECHO'high.' "

For Julie Lariviere-Werner, whowent on ~CHO 10 years ago andnow leads a reunion group withher husband David, that commun­ity was a source of comfort andstrength when her fatber-in-lawdied recently.

"The teens as well as the adultsin the community showed such anincredible outpouring oflove," shesaid, exp~ining that because shewas unable to attend the wake, theteens in the group got together andwent to be with her husband.

"They knew I wouldn't be thereto support him - so they madesure they were," she said. "We'vereceived so much love and beauti­ful examples-of Christ from them."

Acton credits the communitywith helping his family through hiswife's recent battle with cancer.

In his talk he told the gathering,"In the past few weeks more thanever, the love and support of theentire ECHO community for mywife Sharon and our family hasbeen overwhelming and truly asign that Christ works through allof you. Just yesterday she was toldthat they were successful in remov­ing all of the cancer. I know that itwas the prayers of all of you thatmade this possible."

His wife's illness has been "areally trying time, but the [ECHOcommunity's] support has gottenus through it," Acton told theAnchor.

ECH 0 "is a big part of our livesand always has been," he said."There have been many times inmy life when I have looked backand at wha.t influence ECHO hashad on my life, and I find it hard toimagine what it would have beenlike without iLl am sure that mylife would have taken a differentpath."

The experiences of Acton andthe many like him indicate that, asits name suggests, ECHO rever­berates again and again in the livesof its participants.

encouragement and prayer supportfrom members ofthe ECHO com­munity. Also included in the pro­~essionwere the tissues and candy­coated chocolates, ''the staple foodof the ECHO weekend."

The Mass ended with two wit­ness talks describing what ECHOhas meant to persons who have"lived" it, followed by a slide showof ECHO memories and a recep­tion in St. John's parish center.

Speaking first was TimothyActon, who said the experience ofECHO "is a lot more than words- it is feelings, and thoughts, andemotions, and God."

Having attended the first Caperetreat, he said, "I have been for­tunate enough to grow up withECHO" and "Despite many

He continued, "What a gift to begiven as a young adult facing manydifficult decisions resulting frompeer pressure and all the choices"of young adulthood!

The lessons of ECHO "havecarried themselves into my mar­riage and have many times guidedour relationship," Acton said. "Tosee our children at a young ageknow that Jesus is an importantpart of their lives is a blessing thatcomes directly from the ECHOprogram."

In closing, he said, "I see manyFrecbette, "the promise ofa future people that I ha'Ve met along the-the promise of security in our way, especially older people, strug-lives, of the establishment of a gling with the age-old questionpeaceable kingdom." 'what is the meaning of life' - the

To date, ECHO has involvedsome 5,160 youth, adult leadersand priests.

59 priests of the diocese haveserved on teams, 2 J of whom par­ticipated in the anniversary Mass.

"My special gift was Father JimFabey," a Navy cbaplain, "whocame all tbe way from San Diegoto be here," said Mrs. Fuller."Friends are friends forever!"

A prelude to the anniversaryMass was a musical program pre­sented by ECHO musicians of pastand present, including solo as wellas family acts.

Father Dick Landry, MS, led"the ECHO national anthem of20years ago," Weave Me the Sun­shine.

of the Mass was Father ThomasFrechette, the first ECHO alum­nus to later become a diocesanpriest. He attended ECHOin 1913and is now parochial vicar at HolyName Cburch in Fall River.

In his homily, Father Frechettereferred to Mass readings given bystudents Wendy LeJava and Kath­leen Lees..

"The young people chose thereadings," Father Frechette noted,"and I was interested to see whatthey would choose, because I knewit would reflect something of theirexperience."

It.s descnbed by retreat leadersas "a time of listening, learning,worshiping, sharing, praying, re­joicing" which helps young people"acquire the desire and means tobring Christ to others."

Discussions enable participantsto explore their relationships tofamily, community and God andlearn to apply their faith to life'sdifficulties.

Said Mrs. Fuller, "ECHO helpsthese teenagers realize that theyare the church, the hope of thefuture."

The program, based on the adultretreat programCursillo, wasfounded in 1968 by Father Thom­as Mayhew, pastor of Our Lady ofMt. Carmel parish, Seekonk.

. __Thc:~'EncounteringChrist inOthers" 'acronym'was' suggested-­by diocesan chancellor Msgr. JohnJ. Oliveira based on a .quote fromBenedictine spiritual writer DomMarmion: "Joy is the echo ofGod's life in us."

Originally for seniors at whatwas then Coyle High School inTaunton, ECHO later developedin the Fall River-Attleboro areaand was introduced to Cape Codin 1970 by Fathers Edward E.Correia and Francis B. Connors.

Now run by a 10-member exec­utive board chaired by FatherRichard Roy, the Cape ECHOprogram annually offers four re­treats for young women and threefor young men.

Each ECHO weekend, held atMonument Beach's BriarwoodConference Center,is run by a laydirector (Cl8lled a re,tor or rectora)and 18 team persons (includingseven teen retreat alumni) whogive talks and head group dis­cussions.

What makes ECHO remarkable,according to adult leader BobbiParadise, is "The longevity [of theinvolvement) the people whobelieve in it."

The 20th anniversary celebra­tion brought together persons whoattended the retreat in its begin­nings - many of whom are stillinvolved with ECHO as team per­sons or directors - and youngpeople who just recently experi­enced ECHO.

Some came with their "reuniongroup," an ECHO followup whichmeets weekly in the towns of Har­wich, Barnstable, Falmouth,Bourne, Sandwich and in theDennis-Yarmouth area.

A group from Martha's Vine­yard was forced to cut their cele­brating short so they could catchthe ferry home.

"A lot of programs like tbis havefizzled out over tbe years. But witbtbe support of the people who putin their effort and time, (ECHO is]growing stronger every year," saidTimothy Acton, who made ECHO#6 20 years ago and has beeninvolved witb tbe program eversince.

He said he tells potential candi­dates, "It's a time of reflection anddirection, an opportunity to get toknow yourself and get to knowChrist - that's what it's really allabout."

He added, "And it's also anawesome time - a lot of fun!"

Mrs. Fuller, the first Cape rec­tora, said "One of the greatest joysin my life is watching the growth infaith afour young people... Lookat the parishes on the Cape: youwill find former ECHO candidates

Story and pbotosBy Marcie Hickey

For Cape Cod alumni of the. ECHO retreat, a Christ candle, a

rose, a brown paper bag, a stole,tissues, a picture of Jesus and apackage of candy-coated choco­late are more than just an oddconglomeration of items.

They are symbolic of an expe­rience that has had a profoundeffect on their lives.

When they gathered May 3 atSt. John the Evangelist Church,Pocasset, for the 20th anniversarycelebration ofthe Cape Cod ECH0youth retreat program, it was, inthe words of ECHO executivepoard member Mary Fuller, "atime to celebrate memories, cele-

te friends, dream dreams of thefuture about what ECH0 can meanto us and to the community."

Balloons, music and rainbowcolors set the festive tone for theevening, but one gets the impres­sion that their absence would havedone nothing to dampen the en­thusiasm. The spirifof celebrationradiated from within.

"What ajoy-filled evening," saidMrs. Fuller. "That is what ourfaith should be - a joyful loverelationship with our God. Thegreat gift of ECHO is that it helpspriests, adults and young peoplefind that joy in their faith. With allthe problems in this world, theydiscover that they are never alone;God loves them and walks thejourney with them.

"Tonight we celebrate the gift ofECHO in our lives and our love ofJesus, the church and others."

The retreat program, designedfor high schooljuniots and seniorsand college freshmen and sopho­mores, invites young people to"Encounter Christ in Others" andlearn about Christian living andGod's love for them.

RU-486 condemnedWASHINGTON (CNS) - In a

report sent to bishops' conferencesworldwide, the Vatican has con­demned the French abortion pillRU-486 as "a new serious threat tohuman life." The report, preparedby Spanish bioethicist Dr., Gon­zalo Herranz at the Vatican'srequest, was released in Washing­ton by the National Conference ofCatholic Bishops. Each U.S.bishop was sent a copy. The reportclaims that the pill was developednot out of concern for women'shealth but from a "struggle for

Confusion need not be a perm­anent,state if we take the time totalk through the feelings. To dothis successfully, each personmust genuinely listen to whatthe other is sharing. Honestyand acceptance must guide theway if this dialogue is to behelpful.

For example, the other per­son may express conflicts orconcerns that you do not wantto face. This can surface hurtsthat have been ignored. Yet thisvery avoidance may be at the,root of the confusion. ,

Now is the time to bring' asmuch as possible out into theopen. If this can be accomp­lished without either personpass~ngjudgmenton the other,the confusion may give way to awhole new.level of understand­ing,

'The Caffeine Club initiation'By Hilda Young

Charlotte Herzog is a newcomerto our Caffeine Club, an informallittle organiza-tion that meetsirregularly on the spur of themoment at no preconceived lo­cation.

Charlotte is a modest, quiet per­son who rarely interrupts, has noapparent vices, says very nicethings about her husband andseems to see the positive and nega­tive sides of her children in a fairand equitable way.

Despite this, she fits into the'club well.

As a matter of fact, she is prettyhumorous too and so we wantedher to consider cards with us someafternoon.

Funny girl. She thought we'were talking about card games.For a moment she had us believing ,

,she did not realize we were talkingabout those other cards, O\Jf child­ren and spouses.

As it turned out, we held anirregularly scheduied regular meet­ing yesterday in Suzanne's hus­band's work van which she wasusing for 'the soccer carpool.

We called the meeting to order,in the traditional manner by brow- ,beating one of the members, in thiscase Betty, into running to thenearest caffeine outlet and buyinga round.
