It was a very special sign of peace for Anthony and Frances Boyle of Lynwood last Friday night during the Mass in which they saw Archbishop Foley ordain Gary, the third of their five sons, in the Redemptorist Church. Gary Boyle, who had migrated from Penang with his family in 1971 and who had studied architecture for two years and worked as a drafting assistant was on his way back from a working holiday in Europe when he met the Redemptorists in alaysia for the very first time. As a result he joined the congregation in 1979 and has been studying in elbourne until his ordination and after which his firs app intment will b to Penri h n SW.

ocial unity first

Since communication and misunderstanding were some of the key difficulties identified by Monsignor Nestor in his review for the Australian bishops there is good ne sand bad in this week's announcement by the Australian bishops of a restructuring of their social justice initiatives. If only through an oversight, the reading public of Western Australia has not yet seen a word on the subject and have heard only a few fleeting radio references. While the four Catholic weekly new papers watched powerlessly as the story bro e last Thursday, The Record can for once be. as it should. the first source of the sober conclusions the bishops have put out. and of the major findings of Monsignor estor that contributed to their decision. At the other end of the spectrum The Australian ne spaper jumped the gun by a day with an angry coopted member of the CCJP having much to say on the rumoured deci · ion with an accompanying columnist's helpful observation hat the Australian episcopal conference as not strong intellectually or academically ... The observa ion of that ne spaper. and others that the present commis ion and it even paid staff hav been "sac ed" has been the spark of a lot of comment so far in Sydne quarters, although reportedly t least ome of the Sy ney secretariat office po ition tay in force until ovember.

What is a "consistent ethic of life" and why should Christians be concerned about it? Father Herbert Weber finds that many life-and-death issues in the contemporary world have a common starting point - the need for full awareness of the value of life. Father Weber, pastor of St Thomas More University Parish in Bowling Green, Ohio, says that a consistent ethic helps to provide a basic vision for life. Debbie Landregan, editor of the Texas Catholic, Dallas diocesan newspaper, notes how difficult it is to be consistent about anything, even following a recipe for beef stew. She asks: How can a person be consistent in applying the consistent ethic of life? There are always life issues close at hand that call for a compassionate response from Christians, writes Katharine Bird. The associate editor of NC's Religious Education Package discusses the meaning of a consistent ethic of life. Father John Castelot, using the familiar biblical story of the woman caught in adultery, shows how respectful Jesus was of the human dignity of the people he encountered.

Of course, Mother Teresa speaks often of the need to provide food to the poor. But what she says about this seems almost always to be joined with the advice that in giving one will receive - that the poor have a way of getting a message across to those who are better off about what it really means to share. Mother Teresa is a tiny woman with a large message. But how does one um it up' ls it about abortion, or hunger, or children's needs, or the dying? It is about life and about Christianity; that much is certain. Mother Teresa is a woman who makes many connections that she considers important not just plane connections as she jets around the globe, but connections regarding the scope of Christian action that serves life.

What is the main interest of Mother Teresa of Calcutta? As she travels, her words against abortion and on behalf of the unborn have become well known. Well known also is Mother Teresa's work in Calcutta among the poor who are dying. And her efforts for children caught in a Middle East war zone were widely publicised.

Canadian author Margaret Atwood creates a brutal, falsely religiou odety in her riveting novel, "The Handmaid's Tale", (Houghton l!iftlin Co., 1986 ). Reminiscent of George Orwell's "1984", it portrays a society l.'here human dignity is trampled on ruthlessly and human rights lon't exist. People's lives are controlled by the tate: friendship is orbidden by law; women are valued only as wives and if they can t>ear children. People in training camps are "encouraged" to move uoog by electric cattle prods,

ceremony from Mrs T. MILLER, Wattle Grove Sir, Despite an instruction from the Congregation for Divine Worship in February, 1986 that only men should participate in the washing of the feet on Holy Thursday, several parishes m Perth d 1antly washed the feet of women. It s eith r d iance on the part of some pri sts who continue to includ worn n or careless ignorance. For some it rs part of a ong term campaign advocating women priests. Others argu that as in th case of women eucharistic ministers t y are simp y lnvo ving more women in the because women liturg ma e up fifty p rcent or more of the Church.

from David BYRNE, Wembley Downs Sir, Having been closely involved wit the question of vocations in the church for a number of y, ars, I have noticed that as a church, we tend to put the cart before the horse We always begin with priesthood when we look at vocation , and then see ho service to th church fits in around this. As Christians religious, priests, bishops and lay people all have a fundam ntal challenge given to us, through our baptism, o witn ss to the Gospel m ssa and its valu s - to the world hve in, and those within our church community. Some of us are called to our faith comm mty more fully, m ord r o ensure the community stays tru to this mission, and continue to grow in its faith. In th past we have al ys d ntified this as priest! role - which it rs. Ho ver I f I that we have d v loped on.
