FALL RIVER DIOCESAN NEWSPAPER FOR SOUTHEAST MASSACHUSETTS CAPE COD & THE ISLANDS

FAL,L RIVER, MASS., FRIDAY; JUNE 7; 1985

$8 Per Year

Appeal col'lects $1,669,666

Alltime record

VICTORY SMILES are flashed by Bishop Daniel A. Cronin and Msgr. Anthony M. Gomes as they study the 1985 Catholic Charities Appeal final report. (Torchia Photo)

'Bishop Daniel A. Cronin an­ nounced today that the 1985 Catholic Charities Appeal of the Fall River diocese had concluded with the largest sum realized in its 44-year history. 'A total of $1,669,666.23 was contributed to the Appeal. In noting this unprecedented level of giving by diocesan resi­ dents, Bishop Gronin expressed heartfelt gratitude. Proceeds are distributed throughout the year to diocesan agencies, apostolates and institu­ tions to provide a wide variety of pastoral, educational and social services to residents of southeastern Massachusetts. In reporting the record sum attained in the 1985 Appeal, Bishop Cronin singled out for special praise its diocesan direc­ tor, Msgr. Anthony M. Gomes, and Mrs. Aristides Andrade of Taunton, its honorary lay chair­ man. The amount received in this year's campaign exceeded the 1984 total by more than $120,000, constituting one of the best in­ crements ever registered in the annual campaign. A record number of parishes, 109, attained "honor roll" status by exceeding ,the amount col­ lected in 1984.

Msgr. Gomes explained that contributions made in individ­ uaI parishes form the major por­ tion of Appeal contributions. Special gift initi&tives, he said, are undertaken to solicit support from business, industry and pro­ Jiessions in the diocese; however, the parish programs, enlisting the cooperation of thousands of volunteer collectors, continue to form the campaign's broad base. Competition for the coveted position as leading parish was vigorous and lively again this year between two mid-Cape par­ ishes. St. Pius X parish of South Yarmouth emerged as 'leader for the second year, with returns of $56,541.40, narrowly besting the neighboring parish of St. Francis Xavier of Hyannis, where $55, 257 was collected. St. Francis Xavier, however, registered the largest gain over 'last year's total, more than $7,000. Competition was equally in­ tense for the third position in the parish listing. Our Lady of Mount Carmel parish in New Bedford, with $35,929.75, barely exceeded another Cape Cod par­ ish, Holy Trinity of ~est Har­ wich, which, with returns of $35,738, representing an incre0

"Rejoice ,in Hope" proclaimed the springtime green banner in the sanctuary ,of St. Anne's Church, Fall River. Indeed, hope keynoted the celebrations accompanying the May 29 dedication of St. Anne's Hospital's $3.3 million Harold K. Hudner Oncology/Radiation Therapy Center. The center, said Father Ed­ mund J. Fitzgerald, homHist at the Mass opening the dedication program and director of the Dio­ cesan Department of Pastoral Care for the Sick, offers "a place of hope for cancer victims in the context of the ministry of Jesus, the hopeful healer." Hundreds of hospital workers, friends ,and members of the Greater Fall River community attended the Mass at St. Anne's Church across Middle Street from the hospital. The principal celebrant was Msgr. John J. Regan, episcopal

vicar for the Fall River and New Bedford 'areas of the diocese and director of diocesan health ser­ vices, who officiated in the ab­ sence of Bishop Daniel A. Cro­ nin, in Rome for last month's consistory elevating 2'8 prelates to the College of Cardinals. Music, including "Rejoice in Hope" by C. Alexander Pelo­ quin, was by the Fall River Dio­ cesan Choir with music by John Hubert, organist, the United Brass Quintet and Ithe Chapel Belles of the First Baptist Church of Fall River. Portions of the Mass were composed by Glenn Giuttari, Diocesan Choir director. Following ,the eucharistic litur­ gy, the congregation moved 'across Middle Street to a large blue and white striped tent erect­ ed on one of the hospital park­ ing lots, while Msgr. Regan and oth~r principals in the program Turn to Page Six

MSGR. GENDREAU

FATHER AVILA

Two have jubilees Two diocesan priests will «Ie­ brate anniversaries next week. June 15 will mark a golden jubilee for Msgr. Alfred J. Gen­ dreau, while Father Jose M. Bettencourt e Avila will celebrate the 55th anniversary of his or­ dination on the 14th. Both priests will observe their anniversaries privately. Msgr. Gendreau Msgr. Gendreau was born in Fall River Jan. 9.. 1911, the son of the late Napoleon and Mar­ guerite Gendreau. He attended St. Anne's School, Fall River, and Montreal College,and S1. Mary's Seminary. He was ordained June 15, 1935 by the late Bishop Cassidy. From 1935 ,to 1954 he taught in seminaries in Baltimore, Seat­ t'le, and Detroit as a Sulpcian Father,also serving. three years as an Army chaplain in the European theatre. In 1954 Msgr. Gendreau re­ turned to the Fall River diocese, where he was associate pas­ tor of St. Mary's Cathedral; ad­ ministrator of S1. Peter's par­ ish, Dighton; and pastor of Blessed Sacrament Church, Fall River; St. Jacques, Taunton; and Notre Dame de Lourdes, Fail River. Additionally, he was episcopal vicar of the Fall River 'and New Bedford areas; vicar 'lor religious; a pro-synodal judge; secreta·ry of the board -for examiners of the clergy; and 'a member of the Divine Worship Commission.

The Guadalupanas Sisters who serve Hispanics in the Fall River diocese received an award in recognition of their ministry at a meeting of the New England Catholic Council on Social Min­ istries held in Holyoke earlier this week. The council meeting was at­ tt'nded by 13 staff members of Fall River diocesan Catholic Social Services and the Hispanic Apostolate, led by Father !Peter N. Graziano, diocesan director of both agencies. The gathering had Father David Hollenbach, 81, as keynote speaker. His topic was the first

draft of the U.S. bishops' forth­ coming pastoral, "Catholic Social Teaching and the U.S. Economy," Auxiliary Bishop Leo O'Neill of the Springfield diocese, a member of the Bishops' Com­ mittee for the Campaign For 'Human Development, celebrated the parley's principal Mass, a' liturgy of thanksgiving for 15 years of ,the CHD program throughout the nation. The Hispanic program was led des, director, of Catholic Pastoral panics.

After 20 years at S1. An­ thony's, where his work gained the admimtion of people of all faiths and where he was a 'lead­ er in urging immigrants to be­ come citizens, while continuing to cherish their Portuguese cul­ tural heritage, Father Avila was transferred to the pastorate of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church, New Bedford.

Restoring Hope

The shocking aftermath ,of the recent soccer tragedy .in Belgium was indeed a horrendous example of the decadence that has permeated our social order. It is not farfetched to connect such behavior with that exhi-' bited in the Netherlands during the recent papal visit. Such actions as the distribution of posters offering a reward for killing a pope on a pastoral visit to his flock would have been unthinkable even in the darkest days of church his~ory. But in the malaise of our own times, we seemingly are either becom­ ing inured to such actions or accepting them as normal. Either situation is tragic. We can condemn such behavior with all the verbiage at our disposal and all the censures the law will allow. Yet all willbe in vain if we do not make a real attempt to seek the root causes that make debauched terrorists and libertines murder or threaten to murder, seemingly on mere whim. We so often condemn, so rarely try to cure. But cure we must. If we neglect efforts to change our attitudes towards one ,another, our lives wHl degenerate to a state of total anarchy. There is, after all, little difference between the terrorist and the I~ooligan. Both find so-called justification for their actions amid dissent, disorder and discord. Such an atmosphere of strife is often the result of the mis­ guided idea that everyone has a fundamental right to overcome i1my force he or she judges to be a constraint on personal freedom. In our attempt to make sure that every person has a right to free expression, we have too often allowed depravity to rule. We implicitly give the message that corruption and perver­ siion are acceptable human behavior. Our music, 'films and literature are permeated with the idea that if it feels good, do it. , Self-discipline and self-respect are considered false restraints. To be fulfilled, one must be allowed to experiment with every­ thing, no matter how dangerous or life..threatening. Drugs, ' alcohol and illicit sex" for example, are.'glorified as means of self-liberation. : -;'. ., • ; . Much of this mind has been fonndJ.' by our institutiohs. ' Most governments have little use for human life. The so-called civilized nations of the world have encouraged abortion as a moral choice. Many are now engaged in attempts ·to legalize other areas of concem forHfe,·such as those involving the terminally ill and the elderly. ' , At the same time, th(~ nations Which are striving t~ limit and control life from its first moment of existence are creating a global tomb. The relentless arms race, the terror of nuclear holocaust and the encouragement of international subversion are: factors that are literally driving people'mad. If govern-, ments have lost respect for life, it is small wo~der th~t individ- ' ua)s feel free to do as ahey please. After ~1l, tomQrrow they might be dead. ' , . . , ' , ' ,.', Nations and peoples, must return to the realization that extremism in any form is self-destructive and annihilating. Toleration of extremism as an expression of liberty is a mere exercise in license. True freedom is never achieved by extremes.' Admittedly, some regard revolution as a legitimate expres'­ sion of personal freedom. One might even point to our own national experience. Yet it was not war that made America' ,wha.t it is or hopes to be. War always means loss. Rather, it has been our determination of democracy as a condition in which freedom is seen as venture and rights as rectJitude that has given us the rightful expectation of personal fulfillment. May we once again restore to ol;lr nation those qualities of life that e,nsure self-respect and self-control-and offer very little encouragemerit to those who would destroy us. , The Editor --------.---------------

Learning to say no

Last year, a teacher in a large Catholic high school who had built a trust level with her students wished she hadn't. In just one year, 10 girls confided to her they were preg­ nant, but even after her counsel to the contrary, seven of the preg­ nancies "disappeared." "Only three had their babies," sl)e told me. "All I can assume is that the other seven had abor­ tions." She shook her head. "Why don't we come up with some alter­ native to Planned Parenthood and abortions for these kids? Every­ thing is after the fact. Why aren't we helping them deal with the pressures and realities of premari­ tal sex? It's always too late when they come to us." I have reflected often on her despair. We know we are rear.ing young people who are growing up and dating in a permissive sexual culture. Yet, we are doing little or nothing to help them deal with the pressures they face, pressures much stronger than those we faced. The "NO"button campaign ofa few years ago was admirable but not enough. Nor is simply moraliz­ ,ing in the classroom. Kids still face the culture's questions, "Why not? Who's it going to hurt? Are you gay or something?" It seems the time is ripe for an agency like Planned Parenthood for teens who want to avoid pre­

marital sex but need some skills in doing so. If we had such an agency in every diocese where young peo­ ple - girls and boys - could go for help when they're being pres­ sured, it would tell them their struggles are sh,ared by others their age and that we care about helping them deal with the very real strug­ ' gles of growing up today. We could staff such a place with volunteer counselors who have had some training in listening to young people, posing questions, and suggesting responses.' The success, like the success of youth retreats, would lie in its staff. These would have to be adults or young adults who like teenag­ ers, who are non-judgemental, who are perceived as trustworthy, and who understand today's youth culture. I believe these people are out there in our church. Many young people do not want to engage in 'premaritaL sex but they're made to feel odd if they don't. Different. They fear ridic­ ule. "I'm the only virgin in my gang," a t 6-year-old told her mother tearfully. "Is something' wrong with me?" So they submit, even though they may feel used. The label for a girl who flirts but doesn't indulge in sex is a "tease." Often these girls give in but they don't like them­ selves very much. Still, they want to belong - a driving need of adolescents. I envision an ecumenical agency

- Adolescenthood, Inc., in which personal counseling and support groups are offered to deal with low self-esteem that sometimes results in promiscuity, with skin hunger and healthy ways of dealing with it, with morality and idealism, with techniques of saying, "No, not yet," that don't put off the ones they like but rather give rise to respect. As in Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, I would invite young adults who have suffered from the costs of premarital sex to share with younger adolescents, and also those who did postpone sex until marriage to teU how they did it and why they are glad they did. Maybe this kind of effort won't help the already sexually active teenager but it would offer a sup­ port for those who are feeling pressured to get into, something they feel isn't right when pressures get rough. And I bet we would get a lot of parent support for such an agency. I think we could make it work. Is anyone out there who wants to try?

Catch a bee with

honey Q. Last year our daughter mar­ ried a young man in a non­ denominational church. Both are (or were) Catholic and both over 21. They did not get consent ofthe bishop or priest or my consent either, though neither was married before. I did not attend the wedding but my wife did. The couple say they ar(! Protestants, not Catholics anymore. My questions are: Is their mar­ riage recognized by' the church? Can we visit them without giving scandal? (California) Their marriage may be recog· nized by the church. It is impossi­ ble to say for sure without know­ ing more facts. Let me explain. Until recently, anyone baptized Catholic was obliged to be mar­ ried before a priest or deacon for that marriage to be recognized in the Ca,tholic Church. The saine applies to persons baptized Pro­ testant who later entered the Catholic faith. It seems clear from your letter that your daughter and her hus­ band did not ask or receive a dis­ pensation from the form. This would have allowed them to be married validly before a .minister of another faith or a civil official. Under those rules, qbviously, your daughter's marriage would be invalid. However, the new Code of Canon Law provides differently. Since last fall, when that law became effective, people who were once Catholic but. who have left the Catholic faith "by a form~l act" are not bound by the law that they l1!ust be married before a priest. (Canon 1117) What precisely this formal act must be is not yet clear. Certainly it w.ould include anyone who offi­ cially joins another denomination, or who by some public act rejects God or all religion. It might, how~ ever, include other acts as well. From what you' say it seems possible, even likely, that your daughter's marriage is valid according to Catholic Church Law. As I indicated, more facts would be required to know for sure. As for your visiting them, it seems you have made quite clear your regret and disappointment at what they have done and your parental and personal concern at what you'see as a serious violation of their commitment to God as Catholic Christians. Those commitments are real and, assuming they acted with any intelligence and knowledge, each Mass in which they participated and each sacrament they received was objectively a renewal of those promises. ' It is not yours to judge, how­ ever, how they stand before God at

this point - how much aware they were then or now of the nature of those commitments and of their

rejection of their Catholic faith and of their embrace of what­ ever faith they Profess now.

My conviction is that, once you have made your position clear, which you have an obligation to do both as parent and friend, the best thing you can do is treat them with love, support and presence. Another tactic is more likely to lead to alienation than anything good. . Several hundred 'years ago St. Francis ,de Sales, speaking as a spiritual guide, said, "One catches more bees with honey than with vinegar." That's still good advice. Q. I am a Catholic and was mar­ ried to a Catholic man who was married before. He and his first wife were married in the Catholic Ch,urch but were divorced. I then manied him outside the church. We were married by a Protestant minister but never changed our religion or practiced another faittn.ln fact we continued to go to Mass. I am now divorced from him. My questions are: Does the church recognize my marriage? Am I still considered II Catholic? Am I able to receive the sacraments? Also if I were ever to marry again could I be married in the Catholic Church? (New Jersey) A. You certainly are now able to receive the sacraments of penance and the Eucharist. Since, as you are surely aware, a Catholic must be married before a priest to be validly married ac­ cording to church law, your mar­ riage and divorce from your first husband would present no obsta­ cle to your future marriage in the Catholic Church.

Cardinal CPA parley star

By Thomas N. Lorsung ORLANDO, FI'a. (NC) - No­ body proclaimed it, but Catholic journalists at their annual con­ vention here last month seemed to be celebrating The Year of Dom Paulo, who told them he loved them. After all, who could resist an informal churchman whb put his . arm around the shoulders of a journalist as he solemnly explain­ ed Ito her the difference between the banana he was eating and those of his native Brazil. Small wonder that the Cath­ olic Press Association meeting ended with two standing ovations for small, soft-spoken Dom Paulo. Dom Paulo is Cardinal Paulo Evaristo Arns of Sao Paulo, Bra-· 7.i1. He was scheduled for one talk at the CPA convention, but he also held a press conference and he was the breakfast guest of several of the 300-plus journal­ ists at the convention. His message was simple: "De­ fend human rights." In his formal talk he thanked journalists for reporting names of political prisoners arrested dur­ ing gOVernment crackdowns in Brazil. And he t.old how Brazil­ ian journalists themselves, after one of them was kiHed helped prevent more arrests by agree­ ing to report incidents previously unrecorded. In his May 17 press conference the cardinal said it was "sur­ prising" and "curious" that his fellow Franciscan, Father Leo­ nardo Boff of Brazil, was silenced by the Vatican after humbly ac­ cepting earlier criticism by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith of a book which had challenged church authority and the hierarchy. The cardinal said it would be like punishing a child for doing something well. "I never had such a suffering," said Cardinal Arns. "It is the first time in my life such a thing has happened in my church." Keynote speaker Holy Cross Father James T. Burtchaell'of the University of Notre Dame sent out a challenging agenda for the jounalists. He told them to be teachers, explaining to reader the complexities of controversial issues. Subjects like pornography and homosexuality, Father Burtchaell said, "need redefining when the leadership in those issues may not be equal to the cause itself. I think that the issue of pornogra­ phy is far more serious than it has been presented to ithe Am: erican public or to the Catholic community." He also remarked, "There are issues involving homosexuality today that have been dealt with in a criminally superficial way by people who for one reason or another have assumed the posi­ tion of spokespersons. I think the Catholic community deserves something more profound."

Bishop R. Pierre DuMaine of San Jose, Calif., honorary presi­ dent of the Catholic Press Asso­ ciation, cited the church diversity and urged journalists to "think kindly, speak kindly" even in controversial matters. Bishop DuMaine spoke at a luncheon at which the St. Francis de Sa-les award, highest individ­ ual honor in the Catholic press, was given to Redemptorist Father Norman Muckerman, Lig­ uorian magazine editor and for­ mer CPH president. Minority concerns were an im­ portant part_ of the convention agenda: - Sister Mariella Frye, staff coordinator of the U.S. bishops' ad hoc committee on women, told the journalists that writing the pastoral on women and so­ ciety is "probably one of the big­ gest challenges ,the American bishops have yet tackled." - Gertrude Morris, director of evangelization for the National Conference of Black Catholics, said that the hlack bishops' pas­ toral letter issued last September is meant to be read by more than just black people. She sought the help of journalists in spread­ ing the themes of the document, including the view of racism as sin. Two U.S. Hispanic leaders, Pablo Sedillo, director of His­ panic affairs for the National Conference of Catholic Bishops, 'and Father Mario Viscaino, di­ rector of the Southeast Regional Office for Hispanics in Miami, urged CPA' members to be more sensitive to Hispanic needs. were Catholic journalists warned·of a threat of "crushing" federal budget cutting in a talk by Charles Emmet Lucey, a Washington attorney who repre­ sents the CPA on postal matters. He said that the Reagan admin­ istration budget called for "not one cent for our needs," but that there was hope that some help would emerge in Congress. In addition ,to the award to Father' Muckerman, Catholic ,Major Markets presented its Thomas Brennan award to Thom­ as R. Bishop, 'advertising mana­ ger of The Catholic Chronicle, Toledo, Ohio. Awards also went to news-. papers, magazines, books and Spanish-language material. Big­ gest winner was National Cath­ olic Reporter, which took the top prize lin general excellence and in six other categories.

Father Beran A funeral Mass was celebrated May 28 at San Fernando Mission, CA, for Father Patrick Heran, SS.CC., formerly of Fairhaven and Wareham. Father Heran died May 24. Representing the Fairhaven­ based EastEtrn U.S. Sacred Hearts. Province at the funeral was Father Albert Evans, SS.CC., di­ rector of mission appeals, who conducted the graveside service. Father Heran, a native of Ire­ land, entered the Sacred Hearts community in 1940. He was or­ dained in Washington, D.C., in 1945. His first assignment was as professor of philosophy at Sa­ cred Hearts Seminary, Wareham. He was also professor and rector of Fairhaven's former Sacred Hearts Seminary. In 1949, he was one of the first three Sacred Hearts Fathers sent from Fair~ haven to found a mission in Iba­ raki Province, Japan. Members of the Sacred Hearts Eastern Province will concele­ brate a Mass in memory of Father Heran during their annual retreat at Sacred Hearts Semin­ ary, Wareham, the week of June 16.

A moment of .papal history By Father John F. Moore

From the Bernini colonnade, the sight was spectacular. Even Cecil B. De Mille could not have topped the splendor of St. Peter's. Square as it embraced thousands of faithful joyously sharing _a moment of papal history. Our lives are marked by mile­ stone events that guide us and help us know the road we travel. Such a milestone in church life ocurred in Rome this past Pente­ cost. A consistory of the CoIlege of Car<linals, at which men are ele­ vated to· one of the highest of church positions, is in itself a more than significant event. It is even more momentous in the framework of the celebration of Pentecost. Twenty-eight men of numerous nations, tongues and races were cal1ed by the suc­ cessor of Peter to be living sym­ bols of the Spirit. In striking crimson, they came to their Church Father to receive the red hat and the golden ring, symbols of their new duty and responsi~ bility. The moment was' awesome. The drums of Nigeria, the bird­ like sounds of rejoicing Ethiopi­ ans the hurrahs of Americans, all demonstrated the universality of the church in all its majesty and meaning. The Holy Father clearly told each of the cardinals that he re­ joiced in their new dignity; but he also forcefully reminded them that many would find that such church honors would bring them increased difficulties when they returned home. This warning was not overlooked by the faithful, especially as it applied to car­

acceptable to God. Everyday occurrences offer us infinite possibilities of turning physical actions into prayer. There are so many ways of turn­ ing something into a sacrament of inward cleansing and refresh­ ment of the spirit. More and more people are roaming beyond their set rou­ tines of prayer, and when they do, new avenues open up. Jesus loved spontaneous prayer, even though He offered us a pattern and spoke more than once about the necessity of steady, persis­ tent prayer - for which most need some private rule. With the pattern set then, we are free to expand the area of prayer. We are reminded of the kind of ejaculation that came' naturally to the saints and to Jesus him­ self as He broke into sudden praise: "I thank thee, 0 Father, that thou has hid these things from the wise and' prUdent and revealed them unto babes."

By Cecilia Belanger The themes of many confer­ ences during the year just past and now the new 'year have been , 'prayer and action. People feel that peace can come about through prayer. They have found peace in their own lives through daily prayer, wherever they may be. This was the lesson for our Bible study group ~Iast week. Following are some of the com­ ments that went around the room regarding prayer and how it affects their lives: "Jesus prayed and it saw Him through his agony. '1t has seen me through many 'a heartache." "Even When my, prayers are not' answered as I would wish, I ..just feel better after praying. I feel I have unloaded a burden on God's shoulders." "I have got over the idea that prayer was a "duty 'to be done" and now I do it in a much better spirit." Are there new ways of pray­ ing? I don't think so. Each per­ son has his or her own way, time, place, non-stop or special times. Some stand, others kneel, some sit and others walk. What about p~sture in prayer? 'That was touched upon briefly.

"But they take away the struggle 'and the pain, the times of darkness of a true encounter."

Pope meets

Cursillistas

Pedaling pope By NC News Service Pope John Paul II pedals a stationary bicycle for exercise each morning at the Yatican. But Voatican press spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Yalls said that the pope is able to spend only 15 minutes on the device, which is "very poor for one used to strong physical exercise in Po­ land." Pope John Paul rides as soon as he arises, about 5:30 a.m., Navarro-Yalls told National Catholic News Service. The pope's' busy day, which Navarro-Yalls said never ends before 11 p.m., does not permit time for more exercise, he said. Following the attempt on his me in 1~1, Pope John Paul, 65, lost considerable weight, which he has not regained. However, in the book, "Be Not Afraid" based on conversations with the pope, author Andre Frossard wrote that the pope's doctor said the weight loss was intentional and that the pope had been too heavy for a man his age. In his youth, Pope John Paul was an avid sportsman, excell­ ing as a goalkeeper in soccer, as a swimmer in the Skawa River in Poland and as a skier in the hills around his home in Wadowice. Sports activity also marked his priesthood, and even when he was a cardinal he found time fora ski trip into the Tatra Mountains.

Meeting during a recent week· end with 10,000 Italian Cursil­ listas, Pope John Paul II told them not to conform to ','the mentality of this century." He said that certain types of people present a challenge to Cursillistas and other apostolic groups within the church. "There are those distant from truth or grace, who live in error or in sin. There are the restless and the uncertain, who wearily seek the meaning of their exis­ tence and the foundations of the whole universe. There are the lukewarm and the indifferent, who go through life tired an.d depressed, without transcendent problems or questions," he said. Cursillo movement members, the pope declared, should help "the person of today" meet Christ. Their task, he said, is "not to conform to the mentality of this century, but to transform" themselves ,and the rest of society. The CursHlo Movement, which began in Spain in 1949 as a Christian renewal effort, seeks to promote individual and organ­ ized apostolic action. Cursillo means "little ,course." Individ­ uals are initiated into the move· ment through a ~hree·day week· end focused on prayer study and Christian action. '

Coverup cl~imed in women's murders

By NC News Service A lawyer for a Salvadoran national guardsman convicted in the 1980 murders of four U.S. churchwomen said he was forced to participate in a "con­ spiracy" to prevent high-ranking military officers from being, im­ plicated in the case;·· The attorney, Sa.Jvador An~ tonio Ibarra, also said it was an "outright -lie" that a possible coverup of high official involve­ ment in the murders had been thoroughly investigated. He told the New York Times :last ~onth 11.lat he was warned not to pursue the ,case on his own. Ibarra was the original defense attorney for Carlos Joaquin Con­ treras Palacios, one of ,the five guardsmen convicted last year of the murders of Maryknoll Sis­ ters Ita Ford and Maura' Clarke, Ursuline Sister Dorothy Kazel and 'lay missionary Jean Dono­ van. The missionaries were shot to death Dec. 2, 1980, along a country road, 15 miles 'from the San Salvador airport. The U.S. State Department has rejected Ibarra's claim that high-ranking officials were ,in­ volved, citing an independent in­ vestigation in 1983 by former New York judge Harold Tyler. Tyler concluded there was "no credible evidence" supporting the charge that the killers were, fol­ lowing orders by superior offi­ cers.

The program, to be initiated with special parish collections, commits each diocese to raising $50,000 annually for 10 years. Each participating religious com­ munity will receive an annual allocation based on number of members who served in the two dioceses and length of time served.

Cenacle neglected - .By Ulrich Sahm JERUSALEM, (NC) - The Franciscan Magazine Terra Santa, published in Jerusalem, has critic­ ized Israeli authorities for neglecting the Cenacle, the building on Mount Zion which is the traditional site of the Last Supper. The magazine said windows at the site are broken, as well as the lock at the entrance, and a cement , wall closes one of the entrances. Daniel Rossing, an Israeli reli­ gious ministry official, admitted that the Cenacle site is in disrepair, but said he had asked an architect to submit plans for its renovation. The CenacJe is one of the holiest places for Christianity. Crusaders erected a hall at the site over the , tomb of King David, which is ven­ erated by the Jews. Adjacent to the hall is a small room, where according to tradi­ tion the Holy Spirit descended onto the disciples' at Pentecost. In the 16th century, Moslems took over the site and Christians were denied entrance. Only when Israel conquered Mount Aion in 1948 were Christians readmitted. On Ascension Thursday and Pentecost, religious ceremonies are permitted in the hall; on all other days, the CenacJe is a place of silent prayer.
