THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. May 27, 1976
Attleboro Area
In Praise of Charity What is a Catholic newspaper doing featuring money in its headlines? What is a Catholic newspaper doing trumpeting somewhat immodestly the Diocese's raising of over a million dollars? The success of this year's Catholic Charities Appeal is not the exaltation of money. It is, rather, the praise of people who, in the words of historian Arnold Toynbee, "became aware of the needs of their neighbors and did something about it." So this newspaper is not featuring money nor praising a financial triumph and landmark. It is praising the spirit of charity that impelled so many people to the Appeal's call. It is praising the spirit of sacrifice that touched those already hard-hit themselves by unemployment and inflation to take of what they have in order to share with brothers and sisters in need. It is praising those of the business community who saw what the Church is doing in and for their community and who underscored their approv~ by their contributions. It is praising the spirit of Christ-like concern which is alone the motivation for the Appeal. The Appeal differs from many other appeals. It begins and ends and is pursued on a spiritual note. It begins by reminding people that all persons are just stewards of this world's goods and that each person has an individual responsibility toward others in need. It reminds each that by helping a brother or a sister one is really acting according to one's best self and obeying the God-given command, not the invitation but the command, to love one's neighbor. The Appeal is conducted on this theme of charity. What other motive can be given for free-will offerings, what other pleas offered by which to seek to touch the very best that is in the giver. And the Appeal ends on this spiritual note as well, with thanksgiving to God who began the work and sustained it and with the prayer: "May God abundantly bless the 'many benefactors of the 1976 Catholic Charities AppeaL"
Memorial Day The day may mean many things to many people. But someWhere along the way there is, in the hearts of Catholic people, the pause to remember the dead and to pray for them. . It.is rather natural to remember the deceased on the feast of All Souls. But Memorial Day is a kind of Spring remembrance, a recalling of those who have preceded in life and in death. And, hopefully, it is a time to pray for _ their souls. The Church has always been quick to see and to value the religious overtones of many a holiday. She sees that the lives of men are touched by the hand of the Creator and that they themselves reach out to express this even when they do not always fully realize the depths of what they are doing. And so it is good that there be re'membering of the dead on Memorial Day; that there be services to honor them and, above all, to pray for them; that the living think a bit on the mortality of their bodies and the immortality of their souls. The lesson of Memorial Day is not directed only toward thinking of those who have gone. The living have much to draw from it as well.

A friend of mine was telling me about her daughter's wedding. While she is delighted with her new son-in-law . . . still, she feels sad about her daughter's leaving. This isn't her first time. This is the fifth of her children to marry. "I know they have to live their own lives. And And I do miss them . . . someI'm happy for them. But they times. When all eight of my kids all live so far away, we don't are gone, rm sure the house will
get to visit that often. I miss them so ... "Now it's just the two little ones (high school students) at home. The house is so empty."
By MARY CARSON I can sympathize with her. My three older children, now college age, are seldom home.

seem empty. And there will be things I'll miss. But there are also things I expect to find: . Like the scotch tape. And the scissors. And bobby pins in the box where they belong, when' I want to set my hair. When I've left the kitchen in order before going to hed, next morning I'll find it without the remnants of a midnight snack. And the piece of ham left over from supper will still be there' for the next day's lunch. . And the last piece of cake to go with it. I will find today's paper . all togetheJ;'. There'll Be Milk When I invite someone to share a cup of coffee, there will be milk in the refrigerator. And a clean cup in the cupboard. If company drops in, my living I.:oom will be moderately tidy instead of 1001dng like the leftovers of a Vikin~ invasion; or an explosion in a Chinese laundry.. I'll be able to put down a partially read book, and find it again - with the same place marked that I left. I'm looking forward to my husband and I having more time for each other. Being able to have an entire conversation without an interruption by someone desperately needing a ride. . All the things we've wanted to do over the years . . . things we've had only scraps of time for . . . we'll find the time. We'll be able to eat a meal, uninterrupted by 87 phone calls, none of which is for us. We'll be able to le~ve the car radio tuned to "old fogy" music ... and start the car without being blasted hy "sounds to lose your sanity by." Woodwork will be missing fingerprints. The table won't be sticky where a little one made her own peanut butter and jelly sandwich. My days won't be interrupted by heart-stopping crashes from other parts of the house. And it will be quiet ... . . . and peaceful, . . . and serene. And sometimes I'll cry because I'll miss them so.

Appeal Continued from Page One ship of the priests who encouraged the collectors to complete the house-to-house phase of the campaign in such an outstanding manner. This year's lay chairman Richard C. Fontaine of New Bedford expressed gratitude to all involved in the organizing and implementation of the Appeal and for the outstanding success in reaching such a milestone in diocesan Catholic Charitie~ Appeal history. Breaking Barrier "It is like breaking the four-
minute mile," he said, "We have broken through a barrier. And by this outstanding response to the call of charity all persons within the Diocese of Fall River should feel' that we have all grown as a Diocese and that the works of charity and need will continue from a position of strength." Msgr. Gomes and Mr. Fontaine joined Bishop Cronin in expressing- gratitude to God for His assistance since' the motivation of the Appeal is charity and its success depends upon His workings in the hearts of tens of thousands of persons who worked and contributed to this most significant of Catholic Charities 路Appeals.

With a tight fashion budget, I not only give advice to my readers on saving and buying wisely but take that advice very seriously myself. While I have always preached and believed that keeping one's basic wardrobe to a few good colors made the best dollar This determination to get dolsense, I have been known to lar value out of your wardrobe lose my head and buy a by planning every purchase can blouse or a skirt that I had also be used in buying clothes nothing to match. Such buying resulted in double spending because I had to buy something to go with the newly purchased item.
Iy MARILYN RODERICK
Economy has forced me to practice what I preach, and I have found that not only am r saving money, but time. It's much easier to go through racks of skirts and slacks if you know that what you're looking for has to be in tones of beige, brown. or white, or some combination of these. Accessories are also easier to purchase and you get much more mileage out of them. This season I find myself quite taken with tones of brown, beige, cream color, and white. With such colors one or two pairs of shoes can give you a great deal of mileage. Extra Wear Even jewelry is easier to shop for when you realize that you're working with very basic colors and in this way everything can mix and match. With three females in our house all wearing roughly the same size sweaters and jerseys, we get extra wear from our clothes this way, although it can result in aggravation when I find my favorite top buried under a pile of clothes in my daughter's room. .'1'111111111111"111111'11111""11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111'111111""1111'1'1"""

that cross seasonal lines. From all indications, this fall will see as much emphasis on pants as usual, so if you do buy a pair, try to get a material that can be worn from now into winter. While all of us fall prey to impulse buying, I have never ,been as satisfied with my wardrobe as I have since planning has taken precedence over whim. Perhaps I'm mellowing with age, but I really enjoy the neutral tones and the endless possibilities they offer for individuality. Dressing, a necessary evil, can be a lot of fun if we see it as a challenge to our creativeness and a way to show that one doesn't need a million to dress well. ST. THERESA

KNOW YOUR FAITH Peter: The Fatherly Leader
By FATHER ALFRED McBRIDE, O.Praem. Someone once said that a good leader should not be too smart, too well or too holy. The wisdom of this statement means that an effective leader must be able to sympathize with the shortcomings of his followers. He should be patient with the slow of wit, compassionate to the sick and forgiving of the sinner. The beauty of Peter's leadership is that he began with a clearly visible list of shortcomings. In Matthew's account (16) Peter is promised leadership by Christ some time before the passion. The scene is at Caesarea Phillipi near the pilgrimage grotto of the god Pan. There is a certain fittingness to this, for one of the roles of a leader is路 to help his followers. seek for normative stability rather than a mood of panic. The pipes of Pan lead people to a captivating carousal that eventually results in panic and anarchy. Peter's leadership should deter this. After this "leadership investiture" story, Matthew relates Christ's prediction of his coming fatal humiliation. Peter protests that such a terrible thing should never happen. In sudden anger, Jesus thunders at Peter that he is nothing less than a Satan, a prince of evil and darkness, to suggest that he not face his appointed destiny. Here we see a leader who yet lacks the insight he shall one day need.
Peter's weaknesses abound in the Gospel narratives. Not just charming foibles of a loveable curmudgeon, but the dull, disappointing and disastrous failures of a weak human being. At the agony in the garden, when it should have been more than clear that Jesus needed the support of a friend, of His top man, of His "administrative assistant," Peter lets Him down with 'a yawn and a grumbling sleep. Peter had just attended the first Eucharist, yet that presence and power died within him so quickly, because he was too dense to see. At the scene of the arrest in the garden, Peter's reaction is again that of a foolish man. Instead of reacting maturely as an adult believer in his captain's destiny, he slops into the bravado of a youthful mercenary and lashes out with his little knife. He who would one day be a pillar of the Church begins on a shaky foundation. Peter Wept While Jesus stands on trial for His life, Peter comforts himself hy a fire. Peter sits with the girls who begin to taunt him for being a follower of a "crazed messiah." Their acid comments are meant to accuse him of stupidity for such devotion. This assault on his dignity provokes him so that his reply sounds like the ravings of a raging King Lear. He yells that he knows not the man Man. He is no folTurn to Page Thirteen

Jesus in the Desert By FArnER JOHN J. CASTELOT The desert played an important part in the life of Israel. It was in the desert that they met their God. Here they entered into a covenant with Him and became His people. Here they spent 40 years, not in aimless wandering, but in becoming a nation, developing their law and their liturgy, preparing to enter the Promised Land. Here, too, they were often tempted and often succumbed to temptation, in spite of God's providential care for them, guiding them, feeding them. These years were etched indelibly in the national consciousness, and later prophets looked back nostalgically to this relatively peaceful period when the people lived close to ,nature and close to God. The Gospels are full of allusions to the Exodus, and Matthew especially portrays Jesus as the new and perfect Israel. In the opening verse Jesus is introduced as "son of David, son of Abraham," Abraham being, of course, the progenitor of the Chosen People. And on the occasion of the return of the Holy Family from Egypt, Matthew cites a verse from Hosea: "Out of Egypt I have called my son" (Hos 11:1). The reference is to God's having called Israel from bondage in Egypt, and thus the evangelist identifies Jesus as the new Israel. As the new Israel, Jesus is pictured as reliving the history of His people. There is an interesting sequence of events at the beginning of His public ministry. His Baptism in the Jordan corresponds to Israel's crossing the
FATHER JOHN J. CASTELOT writes that Jesus went into the desert and stayed there 40 days, "corresponding to the 40 years sojourn of historic Israel. Like them He gets hungry, and like them is tempted," as depicted in this woodcut by Paul Gustav Dore. "But unlike them He does not succumb to temptation; He is victorious." (NC Photo) Red Sea. He then goes immediately into the desert, just as the people had done. He stays there 40 days, corresponding to the 40 years sojourn of historic Israel.

This comparison is heightened by the fact that every answer Jesus is reported to have . given the tempter is a quotation from Deuteronemy's account of the desert days. Mysterious Reality There is a certain obvious artificiality about such a presentation: It is quite symbolic and primarily theological. Mark's very brief account bears hardly any resemblance to those of Matthew and Mark, and these two, even though they drew on a common source, adapted it to their own purposes.

Jesus in the Desert Continued from Page Twelve kingdoms of the earth. The kingdom theme is central to Matthew. In Luke the third and climactic temptation is the one involving the pinnacle of the temple: the theme of Jerusalem and the Temple is central is Luke's theology. Beneath all this, however, is a mysterious reality, a deep inner struggle experienced by Jesus at the beginning of His messianic mission. Many are of the opinion that He became acutely conscious of this mission at His Baptism. But now He had to decide how He was to carry' it out. The terms in which' the temptation is described suggest that He was faced with a choice between the gaudy, spectacular type of Messiah that many people wanted and quite a different type. He chose the latter, the way of humble, suffering service, obedience unto death. Not an easy choice. There have been those who would like to explain away Jesus' temptation as being somehow unreal. After all, He was the Son of God! Yes, but He was also the Son of man, and the Gospels tell us quite bluntly that He was tempted. Then there are these beautiful passages in the Letter to the Hebrews: "Since he was himself tested through what he suffered, he is able to help those who are tempted "(2:18). "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weakness, but one who was tempted in every way that we are, yet never sinned. So let us confidently approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and favor in time of need" (4:15-16). Bread of Life Later in His career Jesus is once again in the desert, and there is a suggestion of violence in the background. Matthew has just told of the beheading of John the Baptizer and goes on to say: "When Jesus heard this, he withdrew by boat to a desert place by himself" (14:13). However, He does not remain for long. A great crowd comes out to meet Him. They get hungry and He feeds them by multiplying five loaves and two fish. All four Gospels record this incident and they all do so in a way to recall the Exodus experience again. Jesus now is the new Moses, feeding His people in the desert. There is explicit reference to this in John's account when, on the day after the miracle, the crowds taunt Him: "What sign are you going to perform for us to see? What is the 'work' you do? Our ancestors had manna to eat in the desert; according to the Scripture, 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat'" (In 6:30-al). Their complaint leads to a long discourse of Jesus about the true bread from heaven, the bread of life which He Himself is. All of the accounts describe the miracle in terms which see in it a forecast of the Eucharist. Mark's words, for instance, sound exactly like a Eucharistic formula: "Then, taking the five loaves and the two fishes, Jesus raised his eyes to heaven, pronounced a blessing, b~oke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples to distribute" (6:41). John's version of the incident i~ also very suggestive of the Eucharist, and in the long
discourse that follows, the Eucharist, and in the long discourse that follows, the Eucharist comes explicitly to the fore, especially in 6:51-58). A few sample verses: I myself am the living bread come down from heaven. If anyone eats this bread he shall live forever; the bread I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world. . . For my flesh is real food and my blood real drink. . . This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your ancestors who ate and died nonetheless, the man who feeds on this bread shall live forever.

Temptation Continued from Page Twelve • to look at this temptation of Jesus. Being human He was subject, like us, to temptation. When the devil saw the presence of the Spirit in Jesus, the devil recognized his challenger. He felt threatened by one in whom the Spirit dwelt - more than by any number of human beings - and immediately confronted him with the nonspiritual ways of the world: easy solutions to life, material selfindulgence, wealth, power.

It all happened in "the desert" - that dry and lonely place where men go to meditate without distraction and to be alone with God. A clearcut, one-on-one confrontation it was. The greatest desert of all is the "desert of the heart" into which men retire in order to speak to God and listen for His word. Undoubtedly, it was also in that desert Jesus was tempted - a deep-seated effort by the devil to supplant the Spirit in Jesus' heart.
We know how this temptation battle came out. Jesus won. He won with the power of the Spirit, a Spirit in which Luke later says, "Jesus rejoiced." It was also in the power of the Spirit that He returned to Galilee and began His mission of preaching, teaching and healing, and '.'His reputation spread throughout the region." What does that mean for us? Are we to say, "Well that was Jesus. Jesus is Jesus and I am Gene (or Jeanne) and never the two shall meet"? As long as we are just ordinary human beings, we are no great prize for the devil. It is especially when we Identify with Jesus and become aware of the power of the Spirit in our lives that we are a challenge to the evil forces in the world and are worthy of great temptation like Jesus was. With Him we too shall win. On the other hand, if Jesus means nothing to us and we are not asking Him for His Spirit in our lives, then we are not with Him, and he who is not with Him is already on the other side. Another thing the story of the temptation means to us is that the Spirit of God in our lives can be a starting point of a new life, or a turning point, like it was for Jesus, like it was for people down through the ages who turned to Him and asked Him for His Spirit, who turned to God and asked for His help. The Spirit can even reveal our sins to us and then we Can go ~nto the battle with Him and conquer our temptations. If we don't know our sins, we will not recognize the temptations. Without the Spirit of God, ,Promised to us by Jesus, life can be pretty dull, drab, or at best vainglorious. On the other hand, we can enter even now into the desert of our heart, we can ·looked around the~e, search in the dry and lonely places, and introduce our own spirit to the Spirit of God dwelling there in the clefts and among the rocks.
