Asone of the signers of the recent"Hartford Statement: An Appealfor Theological Affirmation," Fa­ther Peter, in response to ques­tions, gave the background ofthat recent statement that callsfor a return to an appreciationof the transcendent in our ex­perience of God.

Bishop Cronin

Hi's Excellency, Most ReverendDaniel A. Cronin, Bishop of Fall

. River, joined each of the twosessions for Mass, making note,in each homily, of the impor­tance of the vision that FatherPeter was presenting in his con­ferences for the pastoral minis­try. in the Diocese.

The arrangements for the In­stitute were made as part of theContinuing' Education of Clergyin cooperation with the Chan­cery Office and the Departmentof Education, Rev. Michel G.Methot, Associate Director forAdult Education.

Hope in the Future

Father Peter's references tothe future, while a new approachfor many of those attending theconferences, were well clarifiedby his many references and illus­trations. Just as the future, saysFather Peter, consists of an ele­ment of the uncontrollable, andthe unfathomable, while beingtrustworthy, so God is Almighty'and incomprehensible in His maj·esty, but always gracious anddeserving of trust. It i!! in hisown trusting in the future ofGod's grace that the priest is theherald of the future and a sign ofthe present living out of Chris­tian hope.

"This represents the beginningof a new era for Boys Townwhich will enable us ·to bothserve youth at the home and toestablish a position of nationalleadership in programs foryouth, sa'id Father Robert P.Hupp, Boys Town director.

Father Peter used the typicalparish situation to illustrate histhesis, outlining for the prieststhe groupings of people that canseem to be obstacles but who,given a hope in God's promise,can be for the priest and for oneanother, opportunities for growthin Faith and Hope. The priestis called upon to find the com­monality that binds the peopleof God together, underscorewhat is shared in Christ andthereby be a reconciler in theworld.

The Priest's Service to Hu­manity Today: The Cultivationof Faith and Hope, was thetheme for the second annuelPriest Theology Institutr., heldlast week, May 12-16, 1975, atthe LaSalette Center for Chns­tian Renewal, Attlehoro.

tended one of two identical ses­sions, each consisting of fiveconferences given by Rev. Carl J.Peter, Ph.D., STD, professor ofsystematic theology and Chair­man of the Theology Departmentat the Catholic University ofAmerica, Washington.

In his conferences, Father Pe­ter introduced and developed atheology of Hope, stressing theneed to build on the traditionsof the past while seeking to buildand to find God in the future.The promises of God as theyhave been fulfilled in the pastand are being fulfilled in ourown day must be the basis,claims Father Peter, for hope inGod's continuing and graciousProvidence in the future.

Finances CriticalFink noted that even with im­

proved business practices manyCatholic publications are in in­creasingly serious financial con­dition because of rapidly risingcosts.. In a separate report on postageincreases, the outgoing presidentcited the extensive lobbying ef­fort that the CPA has engagedin to reduce or slow down themulti-million dollar postage in­creases that are putting severefinancial pressures on non­profit publications.

He pointed out that the CPAwas instrumental in slowingdown to 16 years the original 10­year phase-in period for postalincreases to non-profit publica­tions. Although the slow-downgives only temporary relief, hesaid it is significant because thatone .change has meant a savingfor the Catholic Press "estimatedat about $1.5 million this yearalone."

Fink also noted that this year'sconvention is focusing stronglyon theological issues fatingCatholic editors. He pointed outthat a paper on theology in theCatholic press, which has beendeveloped by a committee of theOPA and was to be discussedduring the convention, "will bean important statement of Cath­olic editors when it is com­pleted."

Signs of the TimesSeemingly, there is nothing so out of place in 1975 than

the liberalism of the sixties. As one reporter remarked,"Where have all the Gene McCarthies gone?" The campusesare relatively quiet as they seek new issues, the emotionalcauses seem to be more lo­calized rather than national­ized and the undercurrentsof change have found moretranquil waters. Issues are scarceand l~aders few. There is achange in the air, for better orworse, depending on one's per­sonal viewpoint.

Of course the first wind thathas swept across the nation 'isto be found in breezes of a neo­,conservative and isolation men·tality. These two impulses havetheir roots not only in the finan­cial woes of the current reces­sion but also in the terminationof the Vietnam war and its con­quences. Many Americans haverealized in the past few years

Modern Man and JoyPope Paul has issued to the world a remarkable apos­

tolic exhortation. He says that he considered himself in­spired by the Holy Spirit to speak about Christian joy inthis Holy Year dedicated to renewal and reconciliation.

The Pope writes that "technological society has suc­ceeded in multiplying the opportunities for pleasure, butit has great difficulty in generating joy. For joy comes fromanother source. It is spiritual. Money, comfort, hygiene andmaterial security are often not lacking, and yet boredom,depression and sadness unhappily remain the lot of many.These feelings sometimes go as far as anguish and despair."

The Pope went on to point out that the lack of joy was"perhaps a matter of loneliness, of an unsatisfied thirstfor love and for somebody's presence of an ill-definedemptiness.

The Pope said that man's desire for fulfillment andhappiness was natural and a patient effort is needed toteach people once more how to savor in a simple way"the many human joys that the creator places in ourpath: the elating joy of existence arid of life; the joy ofchaste and sanctified love; the peaceful joy of nature andsilence; the sometimes austere joy of duty performed; thetransparent joy of purity, service and sharing; the de­manding joy of sacrifice."

The current suffering in the world, he said, is per­haps not deeper than the miseries of the past but it hastaken on a worldwide dimension and is better known be­cause reported by the mass media.

Turning to what he described as a great confusionamong youth Pope Paul pointed out that this "partly be­trays a senile and out-of-date aspect of a commercial.Hedonistic and materialistic civilization that is still try­ing to present itself as the gateway to the future."

.The exhortation shows that the Pope has caughtwell the spirit of the times, the great desire for happinessand the failure of material things to bring this happiness;the desire for a high level of living that sophisticatedt.echnology can bring and the resultant lack of satisfactionin the 'standard that caters to the thirst for pleasure butleaves unsatisfied the desire for fulfillment and happiness.He has seen in the rebellious posture 'of many youngpeople their awareness that material things cannot beequate dwith happiness. The "hippie life-style" of manyof the young is an attempt to recapture the wholesomenessand joy of a Francis of Assisi without understanding theunderlying thrust and motivation of Francis' life and theGod-given means to attain simplicity of life.

Parents who have worked hard to rise above a pre­vious depression level of life would do well to discoverwithin themselves why this has not given them the hap­piness they strive for. And they would do well to try tounderstand why their children reproach them for puttingan emphasis on things rather than on values that leadto joy and peace and serenity and fulfillment.

There is no avoiding the fact that man's search is forhappiness. And the ultimate happiness is God, his Creatorand beginning and end. St. Augustine learned this centuriesago after having tried much that the world had to offer:"You have made us for Yourself, 0 Lord, and our heartsare restless until they rest in You."

The Pope's exhortation - which is entitled "Rejoicein the Lord" - is a most timely address to modern man,recognizing in him the age-old longings for joy and ful­fillment to which God has given and continues to give theanswers.

The group of bishops andpriests agreed to have clergyevaluation as part of their nextsemi-annual meeting, Oct. 28-29in New Orleans.

The NOPC also agreed on awide-ranging list of recommen­dations concerning ,the NationalCatechetical Directory (NCD).

The nine bishops in attendanceand nearly two dozen represen­tatives of priests' councils, in aconsensus recommendation, saidthey recognized that the NCDis not intended to be a catechismbut urgei that it include somebasic 'bctrina: material."Th~ documel't mur,t c.'1ntain

Another of the NOPC's 21recommendations was: "Thenorm is adult faith. Appeal toadult catechesis."

The bishops and priests alsosaid the directory should "en·courage a variety of approachesand catechetical materials tvfacilitate the pursuit of Chris­tian maturity through plural­ism."

SOLEMN ENGAGEMENT CEREMONY: MarilynShaker and John Betley light candles symbolizing their en­gagement from Easter candle held by Rev. Hugh J. Munro,assistant pastor at Holy Name Church, Fall River. Seldom­seen ceremony gives public recognition to young couplepreparing to enter Christian marriage.

Solemn Engagement CeremonyRecognizesCouple Preparing for Christian MarriageThe seldom-seen Solemn En­

gagement, Ceremony was heldat Holy Name Church, FallRiver, for Miss Marilyn Shaker,a parish Confraternity of Chris­tian Doctrine instructor for thepast seven years, and John Bet­ley, her fiance.

The ceremony used by Rev.Hugh J. Munro, assistant pastorof Holy Name, follows, with thethought that it may serve as aguide to other young couples tocommit their lives to each other:

Engagement CeremonyThe grace and peace of Our

Lord Jesus Christ, the love ofGod, and the fellowship of theHoly Spirit be with you all.

IntroductionToday, the Christian view of

the dignity of sex and theChristian values of faithfulness,love, and self-sacrifiice are be­ing challenged. At the some timethere are many men and womenwho recognize God-given valuesand are seeking a solid basis fortheir lives together. By, revivingthe custom of a religious cer­emony at the time of engage­ment, the young couple is pro­vided with an occaSJion forprayer and for appealing to Godfor His guidance as they prepal:'eto commit their lives to oneanother.

The young couple are remind­ed that life will be successfuland meaningful by following theGospel of Jesus Christ as it isexpressed within His Church.The. couple will be aware thatthey are preparing for the Sac­rament of Matrimony, a vocationwithin the Church and a pathleading to mutual· sanctification.Every Sacrament demands prep­aration and this Religious En­gagement service will help thisfuture bride and groom prepareto receive the grace of theSacrament more fully.

So now, let us kneel andpray: Our Father in Heaven hasgiven us our lives, He has givenus a new life as His sons anddaughters, the brothers and sis­ters of His Son, Jesus Christ.Therefore, loving as God lovesus is the way to the fulness oflife. Because you believe thatyour lives are being brought to­gether by God, listen now toHis message shared with us thruthe Scriptures. May your En­gagement be always open tothe guidance of the Holy Spirit,'and may the Father grant theday when you two shall becomeone in the love given by JesusChrist. '

Scripture Readings(a) John 15,4/12(b) Ephesians 6, 10/17A brief homily follows the

readings.Questioning

Jesus said, "Love one another,as I love you." To do this moreand more fully is the purpose ofall Christian life. Because youbelieve that God is calling youto advance in the virtue ofChristian love by loving eachother and the children that Godmay entrust to you, your En­gagement is both a re-commit­ment to follow Jesus ChI"istwithin His Church and a prayerto our Father in Heaven forHis grace during the days tocome.

And so I ask you:a) Do you believe that the

Pope Paul WelcomesCatholic Journalists

VATICAN CIlY (NC)-'PopePaul VI, aodressing a group ofAmerican Catholic journalists reoturning from a tour of the Mid­dle East, praised them for theirconcern about the Holy Landand encouraged them to alertpublic opinion to Mideast prob­lems and their "global effects."

Pope Paul singled out thejournalists during his weeklygeneral audience. He also gavespecial greetings to the councilof the International CatholicUnion of the Press (UCIP), whichwas meeting in Rome.

The Pope told the Americanjournalists completing a tourof the Mideast arra,nged by thePontif:ica1 Mission for Pales-tine:"We .are pleased that you haveshown deep interest in the greatquestions affecting this entireregion and all its peoples andthat it is your proposal to makeknown, for the benefit of all,the needs that you have wit­nessed and to which you cannow so effectively attest.

"We are likewise pleased toImow of your special solicitudefor the Holy Land: her Christiancommunities ·and her HolyPlaces."

His time. The Jewish doctors ofthe Law seldom spoke to wom­en, even their wives, in public.

Jesus not only spoke to thiswoman, whom He knew to beliving in sin, but He revealedto her that He was the Saviour.Then she went into the city totell of the Lord's coming. Thegospel tells us that many fromthat city believed in Him be­cause of the woman's testimony.

The epic event in Jesus' wholelife was the resurrection. Onceagain He selected a woman tobring this great Good News tothe disciples and to the world.It was Mary Magdalen.

Jesus behavior toward women,. as it is described in scripture, ismost relaxed, warm, and friend­ly. When I read of His visitswith Martha and Mary, I get thedefinite impression that His ac­cepting the friendship of thesewomen made His apostle uptight.

Unfortunately, what has comedown to us through the centu-

. ries has not been Jesus' attitudetoward women. Instead we havereinforced over the years theapostles' uptightness.

Customs of TimesThe roots of the apostles' al­

titude toward women, like theroots of the priesthood itself,lay in the customs of their time.It's clear to me that as far as thetreatment of women is con­cerned, Jesus intended to breakwith these customs.

There were other customs Heintended to break. He intendedto replace fear with love, andwar with peace. In its first twothousand years, His Church hasbeen unsuccessful in carrying.out His intention in thesematters.

When Pope Paul recently spoke about the priesthoodbeing only for men he said it was because Christ's behaviortoward women cannot be changed. The primary functionof a priest, according to Vatican II, is proclaiming to allthe Gospel of God, theGood . News that JesusChrist, the Son of God, cameand redeemed man.

The first humans to proclaimthe Gospel were Elizabeth andMary during the Visitation.When ,Mary wen't into Eliz-

abeth's house the Holy Spiritfilled Elizabeth and she greetedMary as the mother of the Lord.Mary responded with the Mag­nificat.

After Jesus' birth He was pre­sented in the temple. On thatoccasion the prophetess, Anna,gave praise to the Lord andspoke of Him to all who wereawaiting the redemption ofJerusalem.

When Jesus went throughcities and villages preaching,Luke tells us Jesus was accom­panied by the twelve and somewomen. They were Mary Mag­dalen, Joanna, the wife ofChuza, Susanna, "and manyothers."

Luke tells us that Jesus notonly sent forth the twelve topreach but because the harvestwas abundant and the laborersfew He sent forth seventy otherdisciples also appointed to an­nounce the Good News. Lukedoes not say they were all men.

Jesus' AttitudeThere is no story in the Gos­

pels which better illustratesJesus' attitude toward womenproclaiming the Good News thanJohn's narrative about thewoman at the well. Jesusshocked his disciples by the veryfact He spoke to her.

Roche noted that CanadianJustice Minister Otto Lang "ison record as having warn~ pro­vincial aHorney~-general (whoadminister the Criminal Code)that social and economic consid­erations are not to be takeninto account in determining thepermissibility of abortion."

Roche then pointed out thatDr. Bette Stephenson, presidentof the Canadian Medical Asso­ciation (CMA); and others haveattacked Lang for being toostrict and have argued that "theWorld Health Organization defi­nition of health 'as a state ofcomplete physica.), mental andsocial well-.being'?" Roche thennoted that Trudeau told the CMAin a letter that hospital abor­tion committees should have"sufficient lattitude."

Roche, former editor of theWestern Catholic Rep0T!er,wrote:

"Since that law went into ef­fect abortions quadrupled from1974 to 1973 to 4'3,201 and theyare now 12"6 per cent of livebirths in Canada.

"This alarming rate of in­crease is most noticeable in thethree wealthiest provinces ofBrit-ish Columbia (where theabortion rate is 26.7 per centof live births), Ontario (18.3 percent) and Alberta (13.8 per cent).

"These figures support the ar­gument that abortions are beingpermitted for reasons far beyondhea'Uh; to argue otherwise is tosuggest that it is more danger­ous to a mother's health to bepregitant in a rich, instead of apoor, province."

TORONTO (NC)-A Catholicmember of the Canadian Parlia­ment has attacked. Prime Min­ister Pierre Trudeau's Liberalgovernment for "giving tacit ac­ceptance to social abortion."

Such an expansion of groundsfor abortion to include economicand social considerations "is notwhat Parliament intended whenthe Criminal Code was amendedin 1969," said Douglas Roche,a Progressive Conservative mem­ber of parliament from Edmon­ton, Alberta.

In an article in the CatholicRegister, a weekly newspaperpublished here, Roche said Can­ada's Criminal Code permits acommittee on therapeutic abor­tion when continuation of apregnancy "would be likely toendanger" the "life or health"of the mother.

All of this wedding philosophyhas come about because I havejust returned from a very love­ly wedding of a daughter ofdear friends. The bride was asexquisite as those of my earlydaydreams. Her gown was simplebut lovely and her very sweetface was framed by a hood ofthe same material ending in atrain. Ever since the days ofMary women have looked lovelywith their faces framed by softfolds of material and manybridal designers have discoveredthat this type of headpiece isboth flattering and dramatic.

Gown a SettingBrides this season seem to

echo the keynote of simplicity,with the young girl herself thefocal point rather than the dress.Most girls of "marrying age"are so fresh and lovely lookingon their own that their gownsshould reflect this by beingmerely a setting for their beautyas was the gown I viewed today.

While brides are tendingtoward the simple and elegant,the groom and his attendantsare becoming more colorful. Forthe conservative rna-Ie a pastelruffled shirt may be the onlyconcession. However, for themore daring, there are no limits'.Top hat, tails, and powder bluecutaway could make the groomand his men the fashion showof the day, or if blue isn't yourcolor try pure white, or evenmint green.

Rally PlannedIn Superdome

NEW ORLEANS (NC)-Arch­bishop Philip M. Hannan of NewOrleans has leased the LouisianaSuperdome here for a massiveHoly Year rally Sept. 7 thatwill feature Archbishop FultonJ. Sheen as principal speaker.

The rally, which will includea Mass, will' be free and opento tJ,e general public.

Archbishop Hannan said:"Archbishop Sheen enthusias­tically accepted our invitationbecause of his great love for thiscity and its people."

Archbishop Sheen, retiredbishop of Rochester, N. Y., oneof the world's most renownedpublic speakers, had his own tel­evision program in the 1950sthat attracted weekly audi­ences estimated at nearly 30milion.

Archbishop Hannan said thatthe rally "will give Catholicsthroughout the archdiocese anopportunity to come together ina unified fashion to observe theHoly Year theme of Reconcilia­tion and Renewal. .At the sametime they will also have theopportunity to observe r. beau­tiful pageant, to celebrate theEucharist together with theirbrothers and sisters in Christ,and to listen to a message fromone of the world's most captivityspeakers."

anti-Communist. Others havecriticized the AFL-CIO for notfalling in line behind the U.S.government when the g9vern-.ment happens to be on friendly

, terms with a particular commu­nist regime.

In response to ,the latter typeof criticism, Prof. Taft pointsout that "the labor movement isnot sponsoring or promotingwhat might be described asrealpolitik, which is the task ofgovernments, but democracy andsocial and economic justice. Itis not obliged to shake thebloody hand of the tyrant evenwhen the American governmentfinds it necessary to do so."

Taft also reminds' labor's crit­ics that the AFL-CIO refusal todeal with government controlledunions is not confined to theCommunist bloc. The same cri­terion, he says, has been appliedto the so-called "unions" inSpain and in Argentina duringthe Peronist period. "There arethose," he says', "who, becauseof their socialist sympathies orother reasons, seek to distin­guish between totalitarianism insocialist clothing and the fas­cists. American labor has, onthe whole, not been receptive tothese distinctions,' and it finds­both types of dictatorship eviland repulsive.

Unjustifiable Criticism

Labor's stand-off policy withregard to ,the so-called "unions"in Franco Spain has' been crit­icized at times in cer,tain Cath­olic circles, but unjustifiably so,in my opinion.

The fact is that the AFL--CIO'spolicy was clearly echoed by theSpanish bishops in their recent,pastoral, "Reconciliation in theChurch and in Society." Withspecific reference to ,the tradeunion situation in their owncountry, the Spanish bishopssaid that '~If our society is toreach true reconciliation, work­ers must be able to exercisetheir rights and defend their in­terests and aspirations withoutfear of reprisals. This means le­gal recorgnition of labor unionswhich are truly representative."The bishops also supported ef­forts within the cabinet of Pre­mier Carlos Arias Navarro tolegalize labor strikes.

Within the past two weeks,the Franco government ap­proved a law granting Spanishindustrial workers the right tostrike, but only under strictlycontrolled conditions. This rep­resents a very tiny measure ofprogress, but it really doesn'tbegin to meet the requirementsof justice as outlined ,in the re­cent pastoral of the Spanishhishops. Nor does it meet thetraditional standards of the AFL­CIa with respect to trade unionfreedom. Until these standardsare legally acknowledged by theSpanish government, the AFL­CIO will refuse, as it has in thepast, to recognize or to dealwith the so-called Spanishunions. I agree with the Federa­tion's por.i,tion on this matter.

Several weeks ago the leadership of the British TradeUnion Congress (the English equivalent of the AFL-CIO inthis country) entertained Comrade Alexander Shelepin,Chairman of the Congress of Trade Unions in the SovietUnion-a man who, earlierin his career, had been Chiefof the GKB, the Sovietsecret police apparatus.

ers' movement which is a tradeunion feder~tion only in nameand stands in complete opposi­tion to everything the Britishlabor movement claims to rep­r.esent in terms of freedom anddemocracy.

In any event, you can be abso·utely certain that if Mr. Shele­pin ever comes to the U. S., hewill not even be received, muchless welcomed or entertained,by ~he AFL-CIO. U. S. Organizedlabor, as labor economist andlabor historian Philip Taft pointsout in a recent study, "Defend­ing Freedom: American Laborand Foreign Af,fairs," has al­ways taken the position that"The unions. of the free worldhad to oppose communist total­itarianism because it denied menthe right to choose their gov­ernors, their organizations oflabor, and ,took away the rightsof freedom of association,speech, and press ... Its ad­amant opposition to exchangeswith the "unions' of the easternbloc has always ,been basedupon the view that these organ­izations are nei,ther autonomousnor independent and that nothingcan be gained by meeting withwhat are in fact governmentcontrolled organizations."

View with Disfavor

:Professor Taft, a close studentof labor affairs here and abroadfor more than half a century,takes note that many membersof the liberal community in theU. S~ look with intense disfavoron labor's rigidly anti-communiststance. Taft himself has no sym­pathy with liberal colleagues'views on this matter. He say,s itwould be futile to review themisinformation and half truthsthey have circulated about la­bor's foreign policy. One of theirfavorite ploys, he points out, hasbeen to attribute labor's policyto some sinister influence "with­out noting that the opposition toall forms of totalitarianism hasbeen a consistent position fromthe time when" Soviet-blocCommunism first saw the lightof day.

Labor's liberal critics fre­quently contradict one another,Some of them allege, for exam­ple, that labor, having becomepart of the Establishment, slav­ishly echoes the foreign policyof the U. S. when that policy is

Religious CemeteryNot Under NLRB

ERIE (NC) - Religious ceme­teries are not subject to thejurisdiction of the National La­bor Relations Board, accordingto a decision handed down bythe NLRB's Region Six director.

The ruling dismissed actionbrought initially by the LaborersInternational Union 'of NorthAmerica through its AFL-CIOLocal 1058, petitioning theNLRB to assert its jurisdictionover operation of the Erie dioce­san cemeteries and cemetery em·ployes. -

In the ruling, the NLRB deniedthe petition, concluding that thecemeteries are "a non-profit re­ligiously oriented institution, theactivities of which are basicallynon·commercial in nature .andintegrally connected with thereligious activities of that insti­tution.

Henry Shore, NLRB RegionSix director, ruled that "it wouldnot effectuate the policies of the(National Labor Relations) Actfor the board to assert jurisdic­tion over the cemeteries."

Propose Canned BeefTo Feed Starving

DENVER (NC)--The AmericanNational Cattlemen's Associa·tion (ANCA) has urged Catholicleaders to promote the canningand distribution of beef as ameans of feeding the starvingwithout depleting U. S. grainsupplies.

In a letter to three Catholicofficials, Gordon Van Vleck,ANCA president, said: "Cattle­men are greatly concerned withthe consequences of 'beeflessdays,' "because they "feel anobligation to the world's needy"-and be<:ause "the popular cry forbeefless days could s'eriouslyhurt our d<Jmestic industry-anindustry already in dire economicstraits due to the current over­supply .of beef."

Van Vleck pointed out that theUnited States has in the pastaided. the hungry of the worldby providing -large quantities offood grain. "Over the past 20years, the federal governmentalone has provided more than$25 billion in food aid to theneedy," he said, adding that nowgrain is in short suppty.

Norweg·ian LutheranBishop Honored

COLLEGEVILLE (NC)--BishopPer Lonning, Norwegian Luther·an Church leader, was presentedthe St. John's University PaxChristi award at a program herere<:ently.

In making the presentation,the university president, Bene·dictine Father Michael Blecker,noted the bishop's "rare- com­bination of talents" in a man"who has distinguished himselfas a pastor, bishop, scholar, po·litical figure and ecumenist."

And the answer comes backloud and clear every time: Howcould I be anything else? It'snot much of a chur,ch just now(though it is great comic the­ater), but it's the only church Ihave. Being a Catholic is kindof like being Irish; it's a badthing until you consider the al­ternatiVes.

The only reason one becomesa Catholic in the first place andcontinues to be one is faith.When you are caught in thetrap of faith you can't leave,however deceptively attractiveother alternatives may be.

Was ita problem of faith forthe John XXIII Community?That is not a judgment I wouldmake, especially about peoplewho were once my friends. Per­haps their failure was one ofunderstanding. Perhaps they nolonger understand that faith isimposs'ible if you try to- do italone. Indeed it is impossible ifyou try to do it with a smallgroup of your friends.

Yau Need Church

You need a much larger com­munity to reinfoN:e you, to com­fort you, and even to make yourlife miserable -on occasion. Youneed a chur,ch, in other words,to keep you in the human raceand to prevent you from go'ingoff into a corner with your owncozy little clique that doesn'tboth~r to put up with the restof humankind.

I respect their freedom of con-. science, as I respect everyone's.

But I 'wish they hadn't left. Asone German theologian remarkedto me, "We tried leaving at thetime of the Reformation. Itdidn't work."

At a time when so many sad events are happening inthe Church, the departure of the John XXIII Community inOklahoma City may seem to be a relatively minor incident.It was only 60 families, more or less.

as far as I can tell from the ac­counts, was not forced out ofthe Church. It chose to leave.I don't care what the provoca­tion was, I have to say <that sucha decision was most iII-advisedand unfortunate. As one priestremarked to me, "Why leave?Stay and bother them!"

It would appear that the JohnXXIII Community followed manyother disillusioned social-actiongroups down the primrose pathof sensitivity training.

'Being single-is it a vocationor a deprivation? There are, ofcourse, those who are celibateby vow because they are mem­bers of a religous community, orl>ecause they have dedicatedthemselves to a task that clearlyrequires the renunciation ofmarita,1 and parental relation·ships, or because they are re­quired to be cel'ibate as membersof the Latin Rite priesthood. Butthe question arises poignantlyfor those who are single outsideof these situations.

In a sense, being single cannot be a vocation. The word de­notes something negative, theabsence of marital relationship.Unrelatedness in itself is not acall from God. However, whilethe word "single" denotes unre·latedness, the single person isnot, of course, unrelated to'Others except in terms of themarital relationship. Positively,such a person is defined in eachcase by a unique pattern of re­lationships, and it is these thatconstitute this person's voca-

We, who have the Westernmind-set deeply imbedded in ourconsciousness are prone to findit easier to live out of an"either/or" mentality than a"both/and" mentality. This al­lows us the luxury of neat op­posites that we fiind comforting:black versus white issues; worn·en's liberation or men's liber­ation, church or state, pain orpleasure. Many realities that wecall "opposites" are not so butare complementary units of onewhole view. Such is the. caseof vieWing single life as an op­posite style from married life.When so done it carries the er­roneous connotations of oppo­sites like "unfulfilled, fulfilled"or "abnormal, normal."·

We have long outgrown(hopefUlly!) the idea that singlelife is the residue which onedoes not choose but .wh'ich isthrust upon him by virtue of notembracing celibacy or marriage.It is no longer the time for Vic­torian niceties such as that.Single life may be as normal,fulfilled as any life style. It sim­ply differs in its way of findingmeaning.

Complementary

Several months ago when Iwas approached about wri,tingthis article on the "single state,"I thought for a moment andasked, "What, exactly, do youwant me to write about?" Theanswer was, "That's up to you.Just consider ·the possibility fora while and let us know whetheryou want to do It or not."

At first, I wondered what Ihad to write about-I haven'tany unusual problems or frustra­tions-then I began to thinkabout my life and how it hasevolved. And I started askingmyself, "Why are you saNsfied?"Then I realized that.i wasn'talw.ays this happy.

Several years ago when Ijoined the Catholic Bulletin inSt. Paul, Minn., they told me to"go find out something aboutthe Catholic Pentecostals sosomeone can answer all thesequestions."

I wasn't enthusiastic aboutthe assignment. But what couldI do? I had avo'ided Mass andthe sacraments for a few years.I felt the Church was a politicalbody. It lacked democracy. Yes,I was a radkal. So going to aprayer meeting was my idea ofreal trial.

Change of Outlook

But that prayer, meeting turnedout to be something special­there was something there. SoI continued going long after myassignment was finished. And Ifound God and lost my journal­istic cynicism.

One of the first things I dis­covered was Jesus' existence andHis love for me. Suddenly theCatholic Church, which I hadbeen born into but had grad­ually gotten tired of, came reid.I discovered that God was trulyGod and He had a perfect rightto te11 me what to do.

Mass and the sacraments be­came a source of real joy to mewith a real hunger for Jesus andHis love. Jesus' healing powerin confession came to methrough an understanding con­fessor.

Gradually, I learned to forgive.I learned to accept the fact thatpeople were not perfect-myselfinduded. When I stoppeq judg­ling people, there was a decidedimprovement in my outlook onlife. This was reflected in mywork as well. My photographsliterally mirrored my change ofheart. .

Because I was a photographer,I was given the opportunity togo to Israel. This reinforced mynew religious experience. Being,in the land' where Christianitybegan gave me more insight.

'Productive Assets'Under $125 Million

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Car­dinal Egidio Vagnizzi, a leadingVatican financia'i offi.cial, hasstated that the value of theVatican's "productive assets"throughout the world amounts toless than $125 million.

Cardinal Vagnozzi, a formerpapal representative in theUnited States who now headsthe Prefecture for the Holy See'sEconomic Affairs, said publishedreports that the Vatican's rev­enue:producing assets total $10bi-llion or as much as $20 billionare "completely nonsensical."

Asked by a reporter if theVatican's productive assetsmight be worth about half abi-llion doUars, he replied:

As we grow in love and trust,privacy isn't a problem. I onlyneeded ,it when I had a lot ofthings I wanted ,to hide fromothers. Once I committed mylife in the light of Jesus withmy brothers and sisters, the Lordgave me the strength.

I find the strength to live anintensely Christian life only be­cause I also live and pray withGod daily, praising Him, thank­ing Him, being conscious of Hispresence, reading His Word inScripture. This love of God thatI live in daily us so mysteriousand so humbling. What could Ipossibly do to deserve such love-nothing Lt'5 God's gift. Praisethe Lord.

Appeal For NoReturn to Pa'st

ARMAGH (NC) - CardinalWilliam Conway of Armagh andnine bishops of the ArmaghChurch province have appealedto Northern Irish Protestants notto seek the restoration of thepolitical system that discrimi­nated against Catholics for over50 years.

In a statement issued here lessthan three weeks before the May1 elections 'of delegates to aconstitutional convention that isto deliberate on the future ofNorthern Ireland, the bishopssaid: "The bleakness of the out­look on the political front . . .gives rise to anxiety. Somepeople are clearly aspiring tothat form of political arrange­ment which previously producedinjustice on' a massive scaleagainst the minority commu­nity."

The statement continued: "Webeg these people to look at thefacts, to be realistic, and torealize that a happy and recon­ciled community will be impos­sible to achieve if there is to bea return to the system of formerdays. The return to such a sys­tem would mean sowing theseeds of an unending period oftension and discontent."

I had simplynever thought about adoptinguntil about noon on Sunday.'Being single, in my case, madethe decision-making processvery simple. There were, ofcourse" many unknowns in thedecision but I realized that thepassage of time would leavethem just as unknown unlessand until I made the commit­ment.

Having heen a social workeruntil I' became a theologian, Ialso had great confidence thatthe cumula,tive experience of theagency would provide a betterbasis for judging the feasibilityof adoptions in my life thatmy own assessment. By Sundayevening, I had firmly decided togo through with the adoptionsif the agency recommendedthem. I have never regretted it.Children seem to validate them­selves, and once they are therethey are intrinsIcally unregret-table. .

I am frequently asked what.it is like to be a single parentof young children, who mustalso work full time and whois called upon to write and lec­ture as well. It is exhausting. Itis very enjoyable and stumu­lating. I,t calls for some veryruthless choices that bother

One of the final Gospel prom­ises appears to be that we will,if we courageously walk ahead,remain united with others. Nowand later. We will hear boun::­,ing back from Neil Diamond'ssong, "You are, I said Men andwomen may be single in thesense of unmarried but no oneis single in the sense of themeaning of the Gospel.

Continued from Page T1}irteento say that man is' not trulyman alone. He is man when he iswith others, even when he isalone. "Single life" is almost animpossibility other than for Mel­ville's "isolato." Men and wom­en who are by reason of theirchoice, living alone are not nec­essarily alone. They may sharelife deeply. They may not.Whatever the style of life oneconsents to or embraces, it isfirst a question of how theyview Hfe.

Limited FreedomIt is too romantic by far to

believe that most me'1 who live,live fully. It is equally romanticto· believe that man chooses hislife situation In many ".es,However Promethean ~ach of usmay think we are, the truth al­ways comes back to us. We arelimited 'in our freedom to livefully as we wish. Bernard Lon­ergan heips us to understandthis. He points out that we havean essential freedom which isman's basic abi\lity to choosefrom among various courses ofaction. A bUnd has choice. Buteffective freedom is the optionswe can choose. That same blindman cannot walk as freely as asighted man. Our family back­ground; our heritage, economic,social or rel1igious. and our ge­netic make-up both limit oursituat·ion and extend it. Somesingle persons may not choosesinglesness just as some marriedpersons grow out of choosingmarriage.

Gospel MeaningWho we are all becoming is a

mystery whether we have chosento accept or embrace the singleIii fe, the married life, divorcedlife, cel'ibacy. Call ,it silent music(musica callada) if we will forit lies at the bottom of so manythings. What seems ultimatelyessential is why we have chosen

Next year, said the presentofficers, it was likely that meet­ings, held every third Wednes­day, would have as their theme

By PAT McGOWANWhen the Sisters' Senate of

the FaH ~i~r diocese holdsits annual business meetingWednesday, May 28, it willbe a sturdy two years old. Acomparative newcomer amongdiocesan organizations, the sen·ate isa group whose members"are suppor,tive to each otherand to the. works of the dio­cese," said Sister Rosellen Ga}l­ogly, RSM, its president.

"We're not a policy-forminggroup," she said. "We just share

- with each other what we're do­ing. For teo long the variouscommunities in the diocesedidn't know what was going onwith each other."

The senate had its beginningsin December, 1972; when memobers of the diocesan Priests'Senate met with representativesfrom about 10 of the area's 26religious commun~ties of wo­men, said Sister Rosellen.

We wanted to establishpriorities and discover needs,and it became clear that thefirst need was establishment ofa group like the senate."

Accordingly the planninggroup constituted itself a co­ordinating committee and or­ganized several meetings toexplore at greater depth theSenate proposal. The projectculminated in May 1973 whenan open meeting for all religiouswomen of the diocese was heldat Bishop Stang High Schoolin North Dartmouth.

"About 90 Sisters attended,"recalled Sister Rosellen, "and.we presented the idea of a sen­a·te and its proposed organiza­tion, then asked each commun­ity that wished to participateto submit names of delegatesand alternates.."

Formally stated, the aims ofthe new group wer.e. "to servethe needs of the Fall River dio­cese, to strengthen and unify

religious communitJies and toprovide a variety of activitieswithin the diocese to the end ofimproving communication amongSisters."

Eighteen of the communitiesin the diocese are representedon the senate, said its president."Some feel ,they can't particip­ate at this time but are glad toknow of activities, some com­munities are very. small and afew are non-English speaking,"she reported. '

Membership covers every agegroup, she noted, and an espe­cially Well attended activity wasa day of recollection planned bya committee of Sisters for thereligious of the diocese..

A Justice Day at SacredHearts Academy, Fall River,earlier this month was also wellreceived. Its purpose was theexamination of the reconciliationtheme of the Holy Year in thelight of ministry to the oppress­ed Il"~ ;t i'lclllr:1~" an ,eyolana­Hon of the work of Cesar Chavezand the United Farm -V"ol·,.ersand discussions of the Church'srole in the fields of juvenile just­ice, health care and the socialneeds of the Fall River diocese.

Present senate officers, in ad­dition to ,Sister Rosellen, areSister .Marlene Lewis, SUSC,vice-president, and Sister EmmaGuenette, SSJ, secretary-trea.surer.

All are in the field of educa­tion, Sister Rosellen as super­visor of bilingual education forthe New Bedford public schools,Sister Marlene as B socialstudies teacher in the Taunton
