Unity in Christ's Church Is

By Rev. Edward J. Mitchell A splintered Pro~estantism is growing restless. With each new tear in the once­ seamless garment of Christ, intelligent Protestants are expressing fear that this dividing will last till the "twelfth of never." .And that's a long, long time.

Today, as never before, our sincere non-Catholic friends are craving Unity. This is the evident meaning of we desire must of necessity be Christ in the Churcl. which He Evanston of the North Am- the unity established by Christ. founded, the Roman Catholic . ' .

Father Amaral Celebrates' Mass

Marking Parents' Golden Jubilee

A Mass of Thanksgiving in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Manuel Amaral Sr. of Raynham was celebmted by their son, Rev. George E. Amaral, at Holy Fam­ ily Church, East Taunton, mark­ ing their 50th wedding anniver­ aary.

Mr. and ~rs. Amaral were honored at a family reunion with the pl'esence of their daugh­ ter, Sister Agnes Virginia, the former Agnes Catherine Amar­ al, of the Holy Union of the Sacred Heart, Havre de Grace, Maryland, being her first visit to the family home in 14 years.

In addition to Father Amaral and Sister Virginia, the couple have two other children, Elsie M. of Raynham and Manuel of Middleboro. ( Among the clergy seated in the sanctuary were Rt. Rev. J'ohn A. Silvia, pastor of St. J'ohn the Baptist Church, New Bedford, where Father Amaral is an assistant and Rev. William Dolim, pastor of Holy Family Church.

Pl'esent also were Sisters of the Holy Union and Sisters of St. Dorothy of the Villa Fatima Novitiate, Tau'nton.

Among the many messages re­ ceived by the honored couple was a letter of congratulations .ent by Most Rev. James 1..

Connolly.

Eugene' L. ,Murphy of Rayn­ ham, who.served as an altar,boy 'during the wedding ceremony 50 years ago, was present with his wife at the reception.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Amaral were born in St. Michael Azores and have been residents of this C<luntry since early youth.

Mrs. Amaral, the former Mary Souza, is still active, with sew-

ing and fancy work peing her favorite hobbies. Her husband is a retired employee of Wil­ liams Saw Mill, Raynham.

8t. Peter's Chair at Rome

The Return of

All the "Other Sheep"

To the Fold of St. Peter,

The One Shepherd

Although there are 400 million Catholics in the world, there are 1 billion, 700 million who are not members of the true Church.

This means that four of every five people on earth are not Catholic. This staggering number is a challenge to the charity and zeal of all the faithful in every part of the world. It is true that the problems of Christian Unity are many and complex; they are the accumulation of centuries of political, social, and religioUs prejudices; they have been forged by the passions and strife of men. They cannot, it would seem, be overcome in a short time, except by a miracle from God. Still, the difficulties can be lessened and the way to the Church made clearer and easier by the prayer aT!d sacrifice and intelligent action of all who are privileged to bear the name Catholic.

The purpose of the Chair of Unity Octave is to beg God for the grace of the conversion of all men outside the Church. God could bring everyone to his ~nees in a moment, as' He did the Apostle Paul, but in His wis­ dom He depends on the prayer and activity of the faithful to assist in the conversion of other men.

The conversion of the whole w.orld is a stupendous task, but . it is not impossibll~. God's grace is never lacking, but man's co­ operation often is. Consequent­ ly the work of Christian Unity 'is the duty and privilege of every Catholic in every sphere of life, and not the obligation of just a few apostolic souls. The laity, especially, must take to heart the mission of the Church to convert all men; they work with non-Catholics, do business with them, attend the same ,schools and universities; they live with them. Thus they are in a position to work effectively for many conve'rsions. For al­ though Our Lord predicted that some day .the world would be­ come One Fold under the One Shepherd, He looks to the prayer and action and ,~eal of His fol­ lowers. Make the first step in the apostolate of winning souls to the Church by prayerfully ob­ serving the Chair of Unity Oc­ tave. '

Released Time Used by Many BOSTON (NC) Released time religious education classes reached an all-time high in reg­ istration in Boston's public schools this year, according to figures released by assistant su­ perintendent of schools Freder­ ick J. Gillis.

The number of students in the program increased from 18,956 .in the 1956-57 school year to 19,668 for the current term. The percentage of students "in ,re­ leased time, 17.7 per cent, is slightly lower than last year, but is believed to be larger than that of any other public school sys­ tem in the country.

Catholic Largest Catholics are the largest group asing released time facilities, with a total of 15,324 students.

There are also 4,141 Protestant children in released time class­ es with Lutherans (34) and Christian Scientists (26) listed in separate categories. In addition, there are three Jewish children and 140 of the Armenian, Greek, Syrian and Ukrainian Orthodox churches. All groups reported increases this year, except the Lutheran and Christian Scien­ tists.

Ten of the 68 participating schools reported that Catholica were the only ones receiving re­ leased time training, and there was one school in which no Cath­ lies participated. In all but seven .f the schools, Catholics out­ awnbered all other participants.

College Officials Vote Support

Of Christian Higher Education

MIAMI BEACH (NC)-A re­ port calling for maintaining church-related colleges "at all costs" was accepted by the con­ vention of an influential asso­ ciation of colleges and universi­ ties which met here.

The report was prepared by a group of Protestant and Catholic educators under the auspices of the Commission on Christian Higher Education of the Associa­ tion of American Colleges. It was presented by the commission to the 44th annual convention of the association and accepted by delegates.

About 1,000 presidents and deans representing some 750 col­ leges and universities, including a number of Catholic institutions attended the meeting.

"If our spiritual heritage in 'education is to be perpetuated, Christian higher education must be einphatically re-emphasized, and all persons concerned with our country's welfare must give it high priority," said the report.

It also declared that the con­ viction of the Christian college "of the unity of truth, of the love of God and of man's nature as a child of God is the surest safe­ guard of freedom, high ethical standards and social responsibil­ ity....

we will now get closer coopera­ tion between Catholic and Prot­ estant institutions."

Common Front Father Celestin J. Steiner, S.J., president of the University of Detroit and vice chairman of the commission, told newsmen: "The statement will help us both as Catholics and Protestants to present a common front. It is a step toward what some day may be a national voice by church-related colleges, a voice which the public colleges now have in the National Education Association."

A Jesuit priest addressed the third general session of the con­ vention on the responsibilities of Christian higher education to the international community.

Father Thurston N. Davis, S.J., editor-in":chief 01 America, a Catholic weekly national review, said that the college's responsi­ bility cannot be fulfilled "merely by stepping up basic research, increasing scholarships or mak­ ing calculus compulsory."

Chief Responsibility He declared that a principal responsibility of the college is to give its students a set of prin­ ciples by which they can live.

Scoring some colleges for holding before the student the Historic Statement, ideal of "standing unwaveringly .The report was described by aside from Hnal intellectual or association press officials as "a spiritual commitment," he said: historic joint statement, report­ "Such a postyre, and such a edly the first in 400 years, of co­ posture alone, we seem to be operation between Catholic and telling him. can be sincere, Protestant educators..." manly or even' thinkable.

Italian Court to Rule on Bishop's

Right to Publish Condemnation

Does a Catholic bishop have the legal right to publish a con­ demnation of one of his subjects from a church pulpit? ' This question will be answered when Bishop Pietro Fiordelli of, Prato enters court in Florence late this month to defend himself against a charge of "s~ander."

It is the lirst time since the agning of the Lateran treaties by Italy and the Holy See in 1929 that a bishop will be a defendant in a court suit involving the 'ad­ ministration of his diocese. The trial will involve what some re­ lard as a conflict' between the application of the canon law of the Church and the civil laws of Italy.

The story begins when Bishop Fiordelli, 41, first came to Prato on Oct. 3, 1954. From his first day in' the diocese, he said, he was aware of a problem that threatened the very foundations of Christian life here. The strong communist element in his cathe­ dral city ha~ apparently launched a program against Church weddings for its key members. .

read from the pulpit of Miss Nunziati's parish church, refer­ ring to the civil ceremony as "a public scandal" and to the couple as "public sinners" and guilty of "public conclibinage."

Bishop's Statement In a statement prepared later, the Bishop said:' "The Catholics of the Parish of Soccorso (Miss Nunziati's parish) were gravely disturbed by all these proceedings. • • Therefore, to prevent a repeti­ tion of similar sad cases in­ volving young Catholic women who at the last moment contract a civil marriage, it Wl!-S deemed necessary to intervene and make a statement in strong terms to the faithful, inviting them to take their 'choice: either they intend to remain Catholics and cannot contract a civil marriage, or they contract a civil marriage and accept, the fact that they are no longer considered faithful members of the Church."

In July, 195'7, Bellandi brought suit against Bishop Fiordelli, charging tha~ publication of his letter had brought serious per­ sonal damage to him and ruined his business, a wholesale sausage firm. A short time later the communist press launched an' attack against the Bishop and only then, more than a year later, the case came to public attention.

Letter Explains The Bishop's first pastoral let­ tier, entitled' "Marriage, Is a Great Sacrament," was issued the following Lent. It was a basic explanation of Christian doctrine on marriage and the family, but it was also intended to be an ·answer to the question Newspapers Add Char(etII that was troubling many of t.tia The communist newspapers -.Jbjects.

ment, he said, was of a religious character, the considerations made therein were on Catholic morals and Church laws con­ cerning two baptized Catholics.

The writer went to see Bishop Fiordelli to obt.ain firsthand in­ formation from him on what had happened. He was occupied with many things that day, so he in­ vited the reporter to put his questions to him while he had dinner.

The Bishqp is a tall, greying, ascetic-looking man, with heavy spectacles that perch on a hawk-· like nose. He joked about his homely appe'arance and spoke of the "opposition press" which had searched out the uglie:;t pictures they could find of him to make him look like the villain that their printed word said he was.

The dining room was so cold that we had to keep our over­ coats on while we ate. The Bish­ op poked disinterestedly at his food. The' writer commented that some newspapers had been disrespectful ·in their treatment of the case.

"By His humiliation Christ brought men closer to God, per­ haps I may be allowed to do the IIllme," he said.

Deeply Grieved Throughout the conversation it was obvious that the Bishop had been deeply grieved at what was' happening, but he' insisted repeatedly: "My people are good people." Even the local commu­ nists are not bad men, he said.

They are compeBed to do the things they do by, their leaders.

The reporter asked the Bishop if he had any fears on what the future held in store for him per­ sonally.

He grinned broadly and ex­ plained that he conside'red aU that has happened as really providential. The organized op-, position of the communists to the Church has long been an element of serious disturbance in Prato, he said, and now he thought it would all be, brought into the open and the people would see what communism stands for.

"I think yo'u will make a fine victim," the reporter said.

The Bi,shop was silent for a long time, and then answered: "I hope I may be a worthy one."

Fordham Linked With Polish University NEW YORK (NC)-An infor­ mational exchange program linking Fordham University and the Catholic University of Lub­ lin, Poland, was announced here

by Jesuit Father Laurence J. McGinley, Fordham president.

Jesuit Father Walter C. Jas­ kievicz, director of Fordham's Institute of. Rus'sian Studies has beeri named to head the "pro­ gram. He ,'will direct _the ex­ change of photographs, books, specil!-l editions of student papers, art exhibits, tape'record­ ings and news letters. Formation of student and faculty commit­ tees 'to encourage more personal contact within fields is also p.lanned. .

The program, believed to be the first such exchange between a Western university and one be­ hind the Iron Curtain, was ar­ ranged \\(ith the cooperation of the U. S. State De'partment.

Father Jaskievicz, who has headed the Russian Institute since 1952, is past president of the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European f-anguages. He ob­ tained his doctorate in Baltic and Slavic philology at the Uni­ versity of Pennsylvania \lind studied at the University of Paris as a Fulbright scholar. A native of Boston, Father Jaskie­ vicz taught modern languages at Boston College for a year before coming to Fordham.

The Submission of Anglicans t.

the Authority of the Vicar

of Christ

In 1534 King Henry VIII of England broke with the Cath­ olic Church. Later King Edward VI continued and Queen Eliza­ beth renewed the breach with the See of Peter and set uP. "The Establishment" to replace the true Chun:h of Our Lord. To­ day there are more than thirtT million Anglicans (or Episcopa­ lians as they are called in the United States) in India, Africa, Canada, America, and in other parts of the, world.

The way to hasten their return is through prllyer to the Virgill Mother of God. For, the people of England, prior to the defection of its monarchs, were known for their love of Mary, to such aft extent that their country enjoyed the special title, "The Dowry of Mary." In fact, as a young king, Henry went in pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our: Lady of Walsing­ ham and adorned the chapel with many gifts, especially a precious necklace for the statue.

Today we pray that through the interc:ession of the Mother of God those who belong to the Anglican Communion in all part. of the world will return to the one fold. There is an ancient saying which declares that "When England returns to Wal­ singham, then Mary will return to England." And it seems that many are returning to this holT 'place. On the feast of the As­ sumption, 1954, the Apostolic Delegate placed a gorge OWl .,crown upon OU'T Lady of Wal­ singham, the gift of the faithful from all over the land. This ac­ tion symbolized their love, for Mary, and if the faithful pray to Our' Lady sufficiently for the .conversion of their non-Catholic brethren Mary will effect the fulfillment of the prophecy. With Pope L~o XIII we pray for Mary's help: "0 Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God and our most gentle Queen and Mother, look down in mercy upon Eng­ land, thy 'Dowry', and upon u. all who greatly hope and trllst in thee ... 0 sorrowful Mother! intercede for our separated brethren that they may be united with us in the one true fold of the Supreme Shepherd, the Vi­ car of thy· Son."

ALesson to Industry Just a week ago the 'Holy Father gave a talk to a group of European and American chemists. The chemists had come to Rome to study the social as~ects of their industry." ' , The Pope 'spoke of the different motives, for collabora­ tion' between employer and employee. The employer wants

to increase the efficiency of the worker by a better organ­

ization of production; the worker' wants, a greater share

in the fruits of his work. ' ,Sage and Sand Despite this difference in aims, there is a profound relationship between the two. Industry has, realized, that 0 it' can achieve its goal by paying more attention to the, H' In' spiritual and 'intellectual needs of the worker.

Not many people know about the unus\la~ incident in the life of S~. Fral~cis .of Assisi, which inspired tne, new radio play to be broadcast by .The Catholic Theatre Guild at 7 o'clock next. . Sunday, over Radio Station WNBH. The play is titled "The Son Who Stole Fro'm His Fa~her," written ~y .Guild member. Man­ uel Almada. ' The story presents a novel irl1erpretation of' the incident which' has embarrassed ad­ mirers of St. Francis for cen­ turies.

The Guild play offers a new explanation of St. Francis' mo­ tives in stealing money from his own father, Messer Pietro Bernadorie. '

REV. JOHN F. ROGAN .... Invitation to all .interested in child welfare to view the Home.

Members of the Guild will di­

rect a' tour of the Home so that visitors may: see the work that is being doi1e to care for the children .living and going to IChool there.

Director of the Home is the Rev. John F. Hogan. The Home » staffed by eleven Sisters of St. Francis, and two Social Workers from the Catholic Welfare Bureau of New Bedford.

Directing the Open House will be .Mrs. Albert Silva and Mrs. .John ,Curry, co-chairmen, assisted by Mmes. William Cle~ry.

Frederic RUcy, Arthur Bennett, Stanley Darnell, Thomas Baldwin, Jean Hunt, Betty Humph.. ' reys and Agnes McGaugh¥. . . '..

Music will be provid~d:b'y" MiS$Margarct Sullivan and M.ts..

Unfortunately, Messer Pietro was the type of father who would drive a saint to stealing, and therein lies a dramatic con­ ftict very much worth. your. while to hear. . .. . GOd has. His own' ways for mo~lding the souls of saints and' in St. Fra,ncis' case, He certainly used 80mefascinatingly different methods. ''The Son Who Stole From His Father" will be presented by a Guild cast directed by Chris­ topher A. Best. .'

ACCRA', ,(NC) - About 100 African students attended the 'first all-African student seminar sponSored by Pax Romana, in­ ternational Catholic student or­ ganization, at the University of Ghana, here.

Delegates to the seminar came from nine countrIes and terri­ tories and represented every university in Africa south of the Sahara.

Addressing the semlnar, Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah 01.

Ghana, said that the country owed· much to Christian mis­ sioners, who came "in a spirit of devotion."

Ghana, he said, must develop as a-Christian country. "We hav'e our difficulties, fears and hopes," he said, "and we hope that you will be able to help us put these fears and hopes in the right Christian perspective, so that we can all make some contribution to the progre~' of th~ ChI istian world."

Octave Intention

Contint~cd from Page One

It ,-,,:as providential tliat thJs Prayer Octave for "the conversion of unbelievers" 'should in less than two ,years time lead Episcopal Minister Paul and his small band of Friars and Sisters into the unity of the Catholic Church. The Society of the Atonement, as it was known, entered in a body on Oct. 30, 1909. This mass 'conversion was V:te first tangible evidence of the value of the Octave.

Pope's Blessing At the time of their conversion, St. Pius X permitted Fa­ ther Paul and his associates to retain their religious habit, their name, purpose and, particular work. That wasn't all. After a personal audience with Pius X, Fr. Brandi, S.J. wrote to the new Society: "The Holy Father with his whole heart blessed Fath'er Paul, the Institute of the Society of the Atonement and its work, and gave, m'oreover, a special blessing to the, Octave of Prayer for Unity and wished lit grea t success."

The blessing of St. Pius X lias been re-echoed by every pontiff .ince then. Pope Benedict XV extended it to the universal Church and granted rich indul­ lences to its prayers. Our pt'es­ ent' Holy Father recently de­ clared that he wished the Chair of Unity Octave "to be spread everywhere in the world as widely as possible," It is strik­ Ing that this Octave movement which originated outside of the Church should have received mch an official and hearty wel­ come.' Today the Unity Octave is part of the devotional life of , the faithful in all parts of the world.

For Unity of All The Chair of Unity Octave lIesignates that special period of prayer in January, from the 18th to the 25th, when Catholics and ethers throughout the world'pray :191' the unity of all men in the ene Church established by Jesus Christ. It begins on the feast of the Chair of St. Peter at Rome 'and concludes on the feast of the Conversion of St. Paul.

That 'word "chair" has more 1ban a household connotation - - - it carries symbolic impact.

1"01' the visible unity of the Church of 'Christ is symbolized In. the expression "Chair of Pe­ ter." It is good English usage to employ figures in place of the things which they signify. And ., we speak of the "press" and the "law"', when we are really talking 'about "reporters" and -Iawyers."

People grasp the 118S0ciation immediately.

Chair of Authority The word "Chair" is used to Indicate an office of authority, And so at the monthly meet'ing of the Holy Name or the Wom­ en's Guild, remarks and ques-, ttons are addressed to the ·chair." Lacking this chair of authority, the meeting would ~on degenerate into a Tower of Babel, freshly crumbled.

In educational circles, a professor is Aid to hold the Chair of Modern Languages or 'the Chair of Eco,.· Domics. 'In ecclesiastical mat­ ters, the word "see" (from sedis which means chair) indicates a at McGuire Air Force Base, New ...urce of spiritual authority.

When the Pope speaks as head of the Church on a matter of

faith or morals, we say he speaks

"ex cathedra", that is, from the Chair of Peter~'

Thus the name Chair of Unity stresses the doctrine that S1.

Peter's Chair"at Rome is the source of that unity of belief, worship, and government which Christ gave to His Church.

"Where Peter is, there is the Church."

Spiritual Fo~ce The Chair of Unity Octave, . born of homesickness from those ,outside the ,one true fold, has the solid backing of our Popes and Bishops. But need it stop there? Are ,we confusing ap­ proval with 'practice? Sorry to . say, a dynamic observance (and that means. prayerful) of tl'te Unity Octave, is not a practice I of our practicing Catholics.

As Bishop John Wright said 90 well at the opening of the O~tave last year: "Sometimes it almost seemed that the nostalgia for reunion was stronger in some outsi~e the visible. unity of the Church than it was among many ­ within. ' And so, though defect of faith kept many aloof, defect of charity, surely not less scan­ dalous, ,kept many within from caring about reunion as Christ cares and as all Christians must care before they can trulY' and fully be accounted 'the brethren of Christ. The Unity Octave of prayer in these recent years has proved, and may yet prove even more, a spiritual force the more effective because so close to the , will and pattern of Christ."

That the Chair of Unity Octave has been a definite spiritual force in the places where it has been ellcouraged is not hard to show.

Take an example (thanks to Fr. Titus Craimy, S.A.): On, Jan. 16, 1955 in a little parish in the arch­ diocese' of Cincinnati, a pastor spoke to his small flock about the Octave. He read the letter from the Most Reverend Arch'bishop asking the, faithful to ,pray for conversions. He' urged them to make some special effort during the Octav~. "Say at least an extra prayer every day," , he suggested, "and let's see what happens/' Eight Conversions , Within a few days things did 'happen. On 'the third day after the Octave began, an elderIy man appeared at the recto'ry door. "I want to be a Catholic, Father," he said. -Then he told his story. For years he had been a militant non-Catholic, but somehow during the past weeks he had been thinking more and more about the Church. He had read some literature about it, but could never bring himself to call upon a priest. "Then sud­ denly, last night;" he confessed; "I knew I had to come today.

So here "I am.,j He begari instruc­ tions at once., Later the same day the door­ bell rang again. It was another man who lived some distance from the church. He had been baptized as a child but never practiced his faith; ,now he wanted to return to the Church.

He could"-not say why he had come to the rectory that day.

"I've been thinking about coming
