New St. John's

• IS dedicated

. ,Last Sunday saw the dedica­ tion of the reconstructed Church of St. John the Evangelist in Po­ casset, climaxing an undertaking which began last November, when Bishop Daniel A. Cronin ·blessed the project site.

Speaking Sunday at the sol­ emn rite of Dedication of a Church and an Altar, the bishop congratulated Father James W. Clark, pastor of :5t. John's, upon completion of the undertaking.

He recalled that two years ago St. John's parish center was dedicated and noted that it is already fully paid for, thanks to the generosity of St. John's parishioners.

The bishop stressed the deep meaning of the rites of dedica­ tion, making special note of the significance of anointing 'the

altar for its preeminent place in the Eucharistic liturgy. . As descdbed in the Decree of Dedication of a Church and an Altar: "A church is the place where 'the ChrJstian community is gathered to hear the word of God, ito offer prayers of inter­ cession and praise. to God and above all to celebrate the holy mysteries; and it is the place where the holy sacrament of .the Eucharist is kept.

"Thus it stands as a special kind of image of the Church itself, which ds God's 'temple built from living stones.

BOSTON (NC) - A Mass of Christian' Burial was celebrated July 22 for Msgr. George ":N. Casey, 87, a columnist for The 'Pilot, Boston archdiocesan news­ paper.

Msgr. Casey, who died after a long illness, ,wrote his column, Driftwood, for The Pilot from 1950 to 1980. He also was a special columnist for the Boston Herald, writing "Just for Today," from 1963 to 1969.

He was ordained in 1920, named a monsignor in 1959 and was a leader in the ecumenical •movement and a defender of civil rights and civil liberties.

You win, you lose VATICAN CITY (NC) - Or­ dinations to the priesthood rose in 1981 but the total of Catholic priests in the world continued a slow decline. The latest Vatican Statistical Yearbook, updated through 1981, shows ordinations to the diocesan priesthood in­ creased' by 121 to 3,981 during 1981.

The g~in offset a small drop in ordiOl~tions for religious con­ gregations, which numbered 1,908 -: 19 fewer than the pre­ vious ye¥r. The combined world total of :1981 ordinations, 5,889, represented an increase of 102, or 1.8, percent over 1980.

Msgr. Casey, Pilot writer

He was appointed pastor of St. 'Brigid's" Church, Lexington, Mass., in 1949 and served in that position until he retired at age 75.

In addition to the altar, the walls of the church were anoint­ ed with Holy Chrism and in­ censed. Previously they had been sprinkled with holy water. ,Finally, the altar cloth was put in place, as were candles and flowers. This was followed by "the festive lighting of the church," in the words of the rite. ' Participants in ,the offertory procession for the dedication Mass :included representatives of parish organizations and Mrs. Alice Walsh and Miss Elizabeth Maginnis, relatives of the orig­ inal architect of St. John's. ., Their symbolic gift was a brick from ,the old church building.

organ as "an instrument for our times," producing traditional or­ gan music through digital com­ puters within the organ console.

In the computer memory banks, he said, "are stored the sounds of 50 stops taken from some of the world's most beautiful pipe organs.. By depressing different stops or combinations of stops, the organist draws upon these memory banks. The result is an authentic organ sound of extra· o.rdinary beauty."

A part of the new church are the restored handcarved stations of the cross from the old St. John's, while the stained glass windows are new, -reflecting im­ portant facets of $,':hurch teach­ ings and history. . The first three windows in the nave, said Father Clark, depict the symbols of the Trinity. They are followed by 15 windows il· lustrating the joyful, sorrowful

and glorious mysteries of the rosary. The final three windows, reflecting the heritage of Amer­ ican Catholics, are dedicated to Blessed Kateri Tekakwith, St. Elizabeth Seton and St. John Neumann.

The windows of the St. John's right-hand chapel depict Old Tes­ tament themes. while those of the left-hand chapel are dedicated to the New Testament with sym­ bols for the Apostles and the Greek and Latin Fathers of the Church.

Windows' in the, sacristy and vestry show happenings in the life of Christ, St. Joseph and St. Francis of Assisi.

"It is ,hoped," said Father Clark, "that these windows will become teaching windows for both young and old, to both foster and strengthen the faith teaching and practice of the Roman Catholic Church of Jesus Christ."

WHEELING, W. Va. (NC) "How does one seeking social justice work to change structures - the oppressive structures we frequently find without coming to hate the oppressor?" asked Jesuit Father Joseph Sanders of Wheeling ColIege.

Answering his own question before an audience of about 75 people involved in social justice ministries in Appalachia, Father Sanders said. "We have to reflect prayerfully in order not to sue· cumb to hate."

The gathering at which he spoke marked the lOth anniversary of a group responsible for a historic pastoral letter, "This Land is Home to Me." Focusing on the work of the church in Appalachia, the letter was signed by 25 bishops frolp the area. stretching from New York to Mississippi.

The letter on the missionary experience of the Catholic Church in Appalachia had wide appeal. There are at least five foreign-language translations and it was the model for Ietters by bishops in the Midwest and in Canada.

Father Sanders was part of the origi~al group that paved the way for the pastoral. The group's original purpose was to protest against a mining corporation over coal-stripping issues.

Father Sanders recalled that those at the group's initial meet­ ing had a "sense of powerless­ ness and a desire to have off!­

the moorins.-,

The Better Part of Val,or Recently in a Boston Globe book review of Garry Wills' latest literary endeavor, some rather snide and scoffing remarks were cast in the direction of the Catholic press and Catholic Church. The ridicule seemed forced and quite out of context for the review. However, one should not by this time be surprised to find derision of things Catholic in any department of the Globe. " The reviewer, one Bruce Cook, an editor turned author (is there anything worse?), describes the Catholic press as a "journalistic ghetto operating in a state of walled-in apartheid; sealed off from the general readership by its particular perspective and interests."

Now perhaps what Cook says about the Catho,lic press is true. The subject is open to debate.

However, what makes ·his reflections odious is their patronizing tone. They are one more example of 'the taunt­ ing of the church by tHe secular.

The very choice of words such as "ghetto," "walled-in apartheid" and "sealed off" is intended to portray a dicta- . torial state of isolation, bringing to mind the verbiage usually reserved to describe the prevalent mindset in South Africa.

So often in our so-called thinking America, the church is made a secular scapegoat. As she continues to uphold fundamental principles of morality, there seems to be a .determined effort to discredit her in the marketplace. The abortion issue, family life, and federal aid to education are but a 'few of the topics, that inflame minds, tongues and pens to intolerant frenzy. Cook's comments are typical of the efforts of many of today's secular minds.

Perhaps .the Catholic' community to some degree de­ serves such unfair and in many cases unjust treatment.

After all, many elected officials all too readily divorce their, Catholicism from their public endeavors.

I-Jow many Catholic senators~ and representatives' unhesitatingly declare themselves pers'onally opposed to abortion while voting for funds to make such killing possible?

How often have Catholics supported a public figure even though that person opposed everything reflecting' Catholic teaching? What can one expect when even one under religious vows assumes a public office necessitating support of abortion?

The confusion of our times and the materialism of our living have wreaked havoc on the human spirit. The secular has become for many the sacred. One can do anything one wants, when and how one wants to do it. Everything from dope to rape is just part of one's lifestyle.

Fortunately for our land, there are many Americans, some of them even Catholics, who just do not go along with this _philosophy. Once more, and it seems so often these days, we urge those who say they are Catholic believers to become Catholic doers.

As the Church continues to face the determined oppo­ sition of secularists, she must do everything she can to renew and revivify adult Catholic living.

She should begin to give as much time to the adult world as she has given to the world of children.

Should this goal approach achievement, we might begin, to see Catholics who do not feel that compromis~ of faith is the·better part. of valor. .

In the wake of the Court's re­ cent Mueller decision, however, it appears special constitu­ tional arguments will no longer hold sway.. ,Can it be that we have at last reached the "future date" longed for by Chief Justice Burger who, in his Meek dissent, spoke of a time when "the Court will comE! to a more enlightened and toler­ ant view of the First Amend­ ment's guarantee of free exer­ cise of religion, thus eliminating the denial of equal protection to children in church-sponsored schools, and take a more realis­ tic view that carefully limited aid to children is not a step to­ ward establishing a state reli­ gion?" ' For the sake of our children, and of religious freedom, let us hope so. And, if indeed the Court has reached that "future date," let us hope that Congress will be no less enlightened and tolerant.

Family Night

A weekly at-home program for families

sponsored hy the Diocesan Office of Family Ministry·

OPENING PRAYER Dear Lord, you really want us to be happy, happy as individ­ uals and happy as a family.. You 'even gave us the formula for finding this happiness in your Eight Beatitudes. 'During this Family Night help us to explore your Beatitudes, focus on the meaning of a particular one, and decide how we might live it so that our family will truly enjoy the happiness you intend for us.

TO THINK ABOUT Total happiness comes only from union with God: "Our hearts are restless until they re'st in You." God wants' us to be happy with him for eternity and now on this earth. It is natural for Christians to laugh a lot and be happy~ In fact, something is wrong when they don't.

ons. Talk about what makes you happy. Think about the happy times y6u have shared. Roll the paper out on the floor or table.

Divide it into sections, one for each family member to draw his or her happiest tiines. After the mural is finished write "Happy Times" in bold letters across the top. Hang the mural in the kit­ chen for the week.

Middle Years Families CHARTING THE BEATITUDES Materials: Bible, large sheet of paper, pen. Read the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5. Write them out on a large chart: Underline the key words and talk about what you think Jesus is telling us in each.

Finally, for those worried about getting their candle's worth, the manufacturers pro­ claim, "Our electronic vigil lights are available in various colors and can be programmed to bum anywhere from 60 min­ utes to 7 days. Each unit has a built in memory and candles shut off electronically in the same sequence they were lit;" Ab, the wonders of a compu­ terized society. Put in our quarter, say our prayer, and get a flicker without smoke, wax or fear of getting a bum candle. As long as the electricity stays on, we're okay. Why do I want to laugh and cry at the same time?

Please don't write me for the address to obtain this abomina­ tion. Electronic bingo is one thing, but vigil lights? It's only a short step to electronic choir music (cheaper, louder and im­ mensely easier to accomplish), to taped homilies, to recycled holy",water in fonts, to flashing lights on pews with room for one more, and to Mastercarded collection baskets. The possibili­ ties are endless.

I'm not against a manufac­ turer trying to get a share of the church market but do we want a church of muzak and flicker­ ing lights? We can get those at a disco or McDonald's.

Mother Teresa resumes travels ROME (NC) -' Mother Te­ resa of Calcutta left Rome for East Berlin Aug. 1, less than a month after she was released from a Rome hospi­ tal where she had been treat­ ed for exhaustion.

The 72-year-old foundress of the Missionaries of Charity was expected to go to Poland after visiting members of her religious congregation in East Berlin. She was scheduled to return to India later in the month.

Mother Teresa, wJnner of the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, spent most of June ,in Rome's Salvator Mundi Hospital, suf­ fering from exhaustion be­ cause of her extensive travels to oversee her projects for the poor.

She was released from the hospital on July 4 and had been resting at her order's convent in Rome since then.

CAPE TOWN, South Africa (NC) - Cardinal Owen 'McCann of Cape Town has joined the

Anglican archbishop Philip Rus­ sell. of Cape Town in criticizing officials whoprevente)j black squatters, including children; from 'putting up even pl.astic shelters to protect themselves from the winter cold and rain.

dioceses participated in "Target '82," an experimental program which resulted in a $250,000 in· crease over the previous year.

This year, 40 dioceses will be participating in "Target '82." The total. collection in 1982 surpass­ ed the $10 million mark for the first time.

Since' 1970, the Diocese of Fall iRver has received seven national CHD grants totaling $213,800.

The <:ontinued generosity of the people of your diocese ful­ fills the spirit of the words of Pope John Paul II: " . , . the Church will not hesitate to take up the cause of the poor and to become the voice of those who are not listened to . when they speak up, not to de­ mand charity, but to ask for justice."

CHD provides an opportunity .for us to live as Jesus did; in solidarity with the poor, the

wounded, the marginated, and

those considered "least" in our

society.

On behalf of the entire CHD

family, I express sincere thanks

By Father John Dietzen Q. At the consecration of Mass, the English translation heard in our churches says that the biood of Christ "wlU be shed for 'ali' so that sins may be for­ given."

How can they possibly come up with this? In the Gospel of Matthew It says that at the Last Supper Jesus said all should drink of his biood "which is be­ ing shed for 'many' unto the for­ giveness of sins."

I want to know who made this diabolical mistake by in­ serting the word "ali" Instead of "many" as the Gospel says?

(Massachusetts) A. I can go you one better.

Even the present Latin text of the Mass says "pro multis," which literally means for many, but which is translated in the English as "for all." , Judging from my mall, a lot of people who don't like the changes in the church complain about this, urged on sometimes by

priests or others who don't know their Bible very well.

The English translation js a proper one, which is clear (if not simple), from the original languages involved.

The Greek text of Mark and Luke for these verses from the Last Supper uses 'the words "hy­ per pollow" ("for many"), Mat­ thew uses a different adverb in the text you mention, but 'the meaning is the same.

However, in these passages, as we know from a study of the texts, there are many Semitisms that is, ideas written in Greek, but based on previous texts written in a Semitic lang­ uage, in this case either Ara­ maic or Hebrew.

The significant factor is that Hebrew and Aramaic have no word for "all." Hebrew "rabbim," which literally means "many/' also sometimes has the mean­ .ing of "all" - "the many who form the whole." Numerous ex­ amples of this appear elsewhere in the Bible, both in the Old and

the New Testaments. To cite just one example, in Matthew 20:28, where Jesus says he gave his life for the ransom "of many," the meaning is clearly that he gave for all mankind, not just some.

We know, furthermore, that "many" was well understood by the early Christians. John's Gos­ pel, for instance, while it de­ votes five chapters to events at the Last Supper, gives no de­ scription of the institution of the Eucharist on that night, as do the other Gospels. John's main eucharistic texts are in Chapter 6, where Jesus "foretells" that he will give his disciples his flesh to eat and his blood to drink. There, in the climatic phrase, Jesus declares that the bread he will give is his flesh "for the life of the world" (John 6:51).

Our English words at Mass, therefore, far from being dia­ bolical, are the most accurate translation of this important passage that biblical scholarship can give us: A free brochure answering questions Catholics ask about confession is avallable by send­ ing a stamped, self-addressed envelope to Father Dietzen, Holy Trinity Parish, 704 N. Main St., Bloomington, Dl. 61701.

New directory lists diocesan slats

NEW YORK (NC) Tlie Archdiocese of Los Angeles has replaced the Archdiocese of Chic­ ago as the largest See in the na­ tion, according to the 1983 Of­ ficial Catholic Directory. .

Los Angeles lists 2.37 million Catholics, 4,157 more than Chic­ ago.

The directory, based on figures reported by the nation's 33 La­ tin Rite Catholic archdioceses, 143 dioceses, tw~ Eastern Rite archdioceses and seven Eastern Rite dioceses, is compiled an­ nually by P.J. Kenedy and Sons of New York.

Fall River diocesan stat1st1cs as of Jan. I of this year show the following increases: - permanent deacons, from 13 in 1982 to 25 in 1983; - seminarians, from 32 to 35; - Students at Stonehlll Col­ lege, the only Catholic college in the diocese, from 2645 to 2710; - students in diocesan high schools, from 3270 to 3381; - students in religious edu­ cation classes on the primary and secondary school level, from 58,940 to 59,421; - Infant baptisms, from 5669 to 5707; Catholic marriages, from 1828 to 1845.

The Los Angeles A'rchdiocese showed an increase of 66,440 Catholics over 1982 figures, while Chicago reported a de­ crease of 8,295, the foirst time since 1939 that Chicago did not iead.

The number of Catholics in the United States is now 52,088, 744, an increase over last year of 881,165, according to the directory. That increase is iarger by 123,428 over the in­ crease from 1981 to 1982.

For miscarried

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Fri., Aug. 5, 1983

GREEN BAY, Wis. (NC) - A Green Bay hospital counselor, working with the Green Bay Diocese, a, Catholic cemetery and three area hospitals, has estab­ lished a burial site for miscar­ ried infants. The site, donated

by Allouez Cemetery, is 45 by 35 feet, enough space for 60 years.. Three times yearly mis­ carried infants from the three hospitals will be placed in one casket for burial. A memorial stone idonated by the hospital laboratorie~ will mark the site.

Bethy Haasl, a grief counselor at St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay, said she sought the burial site to uphold'the dignity of the lives of miscarried infants, and to help parents deal with their grief.

Sisters give 'sanctuary CONCORDIA, Kan. (NC) ­ Calling sanctuary the place "where the ultimate authority of God is proclaimec:V' members of the Manna House of Prayer in . Concordia have offered shelter to a! family of Guatemalan In­ dians. .

Sister of S1. Joseph Beatrice Zapata said members of the com­ munity realized that in offering sanctuary they would be break­ ing U.S. law. . "But .we need to remember that the U.S. has adopted a Jaw, the Refugee Act of 1980, which states '11)at .anybody fleeing a country' for reasonabie fear of persecution is entitled to have political aSylum.

"The United Nations itself has warned the U.S. twice about the fact that they are breaking the law. So it's like, basically, the' U.S. is in violation of that law, and we are in violation of U.S. law because they're not abiding by the U.N. law," she said.

The refugees' are Armando, 39; Rosario, 33; their chi-Idren.

Roberto, 13, and Guadalupe, 16; and thel:t' son-in-law Miguel, 18.

Guadalupe and Miguel have an ll-month-old daughter born during the escape. . \.The family' had lived iIi a Guatemalan village strafed by helicopters. They and other sur­ ,vivors fled north" sleeping in .caves a~d. eating ~ weed~ and ,

roots. They said the helicopters

pursued them to the Mexican

border..

There they. had to cross a

treacherous river spanned by a

narrow foot bridge. In the cross­ ing at least five children fell into the wat,er and were swept away, they said.

Guadalupe, who had given, birth two days before, ",as too weak to walk, .so Rosario hid "­ her daughter's baby under a tree, then carried Guadalupe to safety on her back. When she returned for her granddaughter, Rosario heard another baby's cry. It took two trips to take both infants across the foo,t bridge.'

Even in Mexico, the refugees

said they were not safe. Guate­ malan soldiers, invaded their camp, yelling and shooting.

The fa'milYI stayed in the camp two months, then literally work­ ed their way north, eventual1y reaching Phoenix, Ariz.

The Chicago Religious Task . Force, which coordinates move­ ment of Central American refu­ gees across the United States, then arranged for the family's three-day trip to Kansas; wheI:e they are Hving in house owned by the ·Sisters. of St. Joseph near Manna House. They have planted a garden and Armando has be­ gun sewing shirts he hopes to sell.

STOCKTON, Calif. (NC) ­ Mysterious events affecting a "weeping statue" in Thornton, Calif., do not meet the criteria for an authenticated appearance of Mary says Bishop Roger Ma. hony of Stockton. The statue of Our Lady of Fatima at Mater Ecclesiae Mission Church has been reported to weep and to move from one place to another.

Also, photographs of the statue seem to show the head of Christ either on the statue or on the wall behind the statue. Bishop Mahony's announcement fol­ lowed an investigation by a com­ mission he had appointed. The investigation included laboratory studies of· the photographs.

have received help since the shel­ ter opened in Denver's old Ceri­ tral Catholic High S'chool. Fund­ ed by private donations, it is operated. under the auspices of the A'rchdiocese of' Denver. " For the shelter staff, it's more than a 40-hour-a-week Job. Ter­ rence Sharp, assistant director, and coordinator Ron Doerr are listeners, . counselors and en­ couragers.

"We are mends to the people,'"

said Doerr, who .was working at a Catholic Worker soup kitchen when he came to the Samaritan Shelter to help set up their kit­ chen and "never went home."

Sharp's route to the shelter waf! different. He knows what it is to be on the streets.

He came to Denver one whiter from Florida for a warehouse job. When the job didn't materi­ .alize, he sought refuge at Holy Ghost Church, which Father C. B..Woodrich, pastor and arch­ diocesan dirctor of communica­ tions, had opened to the home­ .. less.

Sharp began helping and was put in charge of the Holy Ghost operation.

When Samaritan Shelter opened, cosponsored by Father Woodrich, he was assis­ tant direttor.

"I can ide,ntify with those peo­ ple," he said. "We are all here for their benefit . . . the good that has 'been done here could never be measured. It has been a growing experience."

Like Sharp, many of the un­ employed came to Denver think­ ing jobs would be plentiful, but soon found themselves down to their last dollar.

"If they can take a shower, get some good clean clothes, a hot meal and a good night's rest, they have a more positive attitude," Sharp said.

Breakfasts and dinners at the shelter are adequate, not ex­

travagant. Sandwiches with a hearty soup or stew are the usual fare. A 5 a.m. breakfast is of­ fered for those getting up early . to look for work.

Shelter guests must leave at 8 a.m.· daily to seek work and must be in by 7 p.m. Women with children are allowed to stay in all day.

Samaritan Shelter does not provide job counseling, but job­ . filling has become. one of its' services because employers often call to offer jobs. The shelter has lalso been able to employ some guests in kitchen and mainten­ ance jobs.

In spite of the summer dona­ tions doldrums, the Samaritan staff believes' the futur!! is bright.

"The country has been good to us," Sharp said, "given the set of circumstances, recession or whatever you want to call it. No­ body has a lot to give, but every­ body has a little to giv.e."

Dominicans

set election,

study Marx

By Nancy Frazier ROME (NC) - More than 130 Dominicans will meet in Rome beginning Aug. 29 to elect a new -leader and to discuss the controversial topic of Marxism.

The 134 representatives of the order's 5,600 priests and 1,600 brothers will review a .study paper on Marxism prepared by 10 Dominican specialists from nine countries. Also on the agen­ da is election of a successor to Father Vincent de Couesnongle, 66, Dominican master general.

The meeting or general chap­ ter is expected to last until the end of September.

The specialists on Marxism have listed eight "orientations" to guide discussion.

"If we wish to work in social . change for the construction of a more just society, we have no right to be ignorant of certain elements of Marxist analysis which help one to understand the birth and transmission of structures of injustice," note the orientations. ·But, they add, "doctrinal and dogmatic Marxism is incompati- . ble with the Gospel as well as with science."

The orientations quote a 1981 letter on Christianity and Marx­ ism by Jesuit superior general Father Pedro Arrupe. In the sec­ tion quoted, Father Arrupe says it is possible "to bring together, by virtue of our analyses of so­ ciety, a certain number of meth­ odological points of view, more or less springing from Marxism, on condition that we do not give them any exclusive character: .for example, attention to econ­ omic factors, to the structures of poverty, to those economic in­ tersets which can move this group or that."

The study paper on Marxism will be discussed but "not nec­ essarily" voted on, according to Father John Mills, English-lang­ uage press spokesman for the general chapter.

Last month, Father Battista Mondin, condemned Marxism as a "grave danger" and a "dreaded and terrible adversary" to which Christians "must re­ spond with total commitment, which does 'not exclude recourse to a strategy of battle, conduct­ ed above all by dialogue and critique."

At the Dominican meeting one of the first orders of business will be election of a successor to Father De Couesnongle, a Frenchman who has been master general for the past nine years.

The election is expected to take~place Sept. 2.

The Dominicans, also known as the Order of Preachers, were founded in 1217 by St. Dominic.

NEW MONMOUTH, N.J. (NC) - By riding his bicycle more than 3,200 miles, from Seattle to New Monmouth, Paul Bischoff, 21; raised pledges of $17,000 for his home parish of St. Mary's in New Monmouth. . Riding through rain storms, heavy wind and. sleeping on church lawns or in parks was a new experience for Bischoff who had never been on an over· night bike trip before his cross­ country venture began. ·Before leaving on June 13, Bischoff received pledges from fellow parishioners, residents of New Monmouth and local mer­ chants.' ~ . His trip, which ended July 13, brought members of the parish .

together, said Father John Muth­ ig, associate pastor. .

Riding a 15-speed bicycle, Bis· choff averaged 100 miles a day, with a top mileage of almost 200 miles one day in South Dakota.

He said doubts set in while taking a week to ride through Montana. "It's going to take me three years," he'said he thought to himself.

Bischoff carried a 45-pound pack that included a tent,' sleep· ing bag, clothes, food, two extra bicycle tires, extra tubes and a bicycle pump.

Two of them were to be a Iowa high school umpire of the year and to officiate at the state high school baseball champion­ ship. His first goal was realized last year, and the second came this July when he was assigned to the Iowa high school play­ offs.

Father Collison began umpir­ ing for a little league team when he was 13 and worked more than 120 games a season before his ordination. He now works about 40 games a season, fitting them around his parish respon­ sibilities.

ences.

It works vice versa, too. Tech· niques for making a .point in a­ homily .have helped explain a disputed call, he said.

The majority of parishioners like their priest's avocation.

"They think it's neat that 1 do something different," 'he explain­ ed.

Father Collison, ordained in 1978, said that before entering the seminary he had wanted to be a professional umpire. "Priest· hood eliminates any professional aspirations," he said, but he does set .goals.

Whenever I hear someone say that G6d has forsaken the world I think of all the good things areI happening through Him. that .

People l just aren't looking or listening or sensing things. For all the! problems in the world, there ate wonderful things taking place through the spirit of co­ operation, good fellowship and commort concern for righting ··what is, wrong. . I fina my mail uplifting. For instancb, a letter from Sister Bernardine Soucie, p.f.m. of :Worce~ter. Several months ago I wrote about Mark VII, a camp for th~ Hearing-impaired. Sister Bernardine saw the column and contac~ed Father Tom Coughlin Mark VII's founaer: "1- Want you to share in the beautif~l experience I've just . lived i through," she wrote.

I I

me

the world

"Through you I contacted Father Tom. He informed me that Sis. ter Maureen Langton, codirector of Mark VII, was organizing a retreat for hearing- impaired reo ligious, the first such retreat.

"It was by far the most won­ derful retreat I've attended and this was my 34th. Therewere 10 of us attending from all over the 'country: eight sisters, a brother and a deacon."

Again the hand of God: "I thought I would never get through it when Steve died and left me with two small children.

When I had time to collect my thoughts and stop feeling sorry for myself, I began to. pray harder than ever for God's help.

I took one day at a time and the cHildren did likewise. / "We got over the rough days by praying together and recall· ing Steve's strength in his last

days and all the things he told us to do when he was no longer with us in the flesh. God became such a force in our lives that we could feel His presence."

AJ)other letter is filled with the missionary spirit: "I have been so lucky, having licked a couple of bad experiences health· wise, that I feel I must give something back to God for my good fortune. So I am fanning out from· my isolated place in the world and helping solve ­ some of the problems around us."

There are all sorts of needs "outside the gate." Some are easily distinguishable; others are not.

If we belong to Christ we must have some sense of mission in ,the world. Mission can be on one's street, one's town, any-· where.

All missions are important. We all have something to give the world.

portswQtch Cancer Home Benefits From Golf Last Sunday, at the Montaup Country Club in Portsmouth, the second annual Rose Hawthorne Lathrop Cancer Home Golf Tournament was held.

With 280 golfers participating, including Joe Lazarro, national champion blind golfer, the home benefited to the tune of $15,300, according to Manuel Linhares, president of the Montaup club and director of the tournamellt.

That amount was only $500 under the goal of $15,800 which' would permit the purchase of four oxygen enrichers for the home. Optimism prevailed that the goal would be reached.

Jim McDermott, the 1980 Massachusetts Amateur cham­ pion and Fall River Country Club titlist, fired a low gross 68 to win the tournament. Larry Icovone, 72, was the runnerup.

Tony Abraham was the winner of the low net with 63. Elaine Bicker shot a net 62 to top the women's division.

Linhares, Rhode Island junior champion Scott Borden and Harry Barboza tied for third place in low gross with 75s. , Prize winners were Robert MacMurray, trip to Dallas; John Janczura, trip to Atlantic City; Mike Rurak, portable TV; Dom­ inic Mastriano, bedspread; Bar­ bara Isaac, woods and irons; John Silvia, afghan and pillow; and George Travers, woods.

A 1983 car, the prize for a

hole in one on the lOth hole, was unclaimed when no ace was recorded on tournament day.

Ironically, the day before the tournament, Montaup rmember Warren Rogers did ace tl1e hole.

Linhares thanked businesses and individuals who supported the event, as well as committee members from the Montaup Club.

The committee includes club vice president Tom Dunn, house chairman Joe Freitas, steward Joe Pereira, Jim Bonas, Everett Smith, Jr., Norm Guay, Bob Do­ lan, Tom Wong, Russ Wilcox, Greg Sousa, Arlene Linhares, Angelo Chianese and club pro Steve Brown.

Golfers are now Iooking ahead to another benefit tournament . . . this one to be held on Tues­ day, Aug. 16, at the Fall River Country Club for the benefit of St. Anne's Hospital. Billed as the first annual St. Anne's Hos­ pital Charity Golf· Tournament apparently indicates that this will become, as is billed, an an­ nual event.

For information on that tour­ nament call the Public Relations Department at the hospital, 674­ 5741 extension 411, or contact chairman Edward C. Berube and his committee members Arthur Miranda, Claude Tetreault, Tony Imbriglio, Richard. Lafrance, Mark McManus.

CYO Baseball Entering this week Our Lady of Health and Notre Dame were still engaged in a tight race for the championship of the Fall River CYO Baseball League.

Shoes for Poland

MARSHFIELD, Wis. (NC) ­ U.S. Catholic groups are sending shoes to Poland to help alleviate that country's shoe shortage.

The Marshfield conference of the St. Vincent de 'Paul Society is shipping two tons of shoes to Poland with the help of Catholic Relief Services, overseas aid agency of U.S. Catholics. Last fall, a number of Catholic groups . in Rhod~ Island, Chicago and other pl~ces sent shoes.

"We were told that an individ­ ual in PQland is aHocated only one pair of shoes every three

years," said John Brayer, Marsh­ field, conference member and general manager of 'the society's store in Marshfield. ' Members of the conference sorted through shoes given to the store to remove impractical styles such as high heels and ski boots.

A CRS spokeswoman said that

with the help of diocesan and

other groups, CRS has shipped

$75 million worth of food and

clothing to Poland since Joly 1981.

New Films "Staying Alive" (paramount): In this sequel to "Saturday Night Fever," Tony M.anero

(John Travolta), five years after

making the big leap from Brook­ lyn to Manhattan, is working at odd jobs to make ends meet while he tries desperately to break into the Broadway scene.

Finally he and the two women in his life (Cynthia Rhodes and Finola Hughes), are cast in a big musical, supposed to become a huge hit but in fact a Iudi­ crous mess. A'gainst all odds, Tony goes from chorus boy to . star and triumphs on opening night, not unexpectedly when you realize that the director and co-author is Sylvester Stallone.

Unrealistic, vulgar and mediocre entertainment, rated A3, PG be­ cause of the benign attitude to­ wards ·Tony's free and easy love life.

"The Draughtsman's Contract" (UA Classics): In this pretentious period piece set in 17th-century England, an upstart and imper­ ious artist (Anthony Higgins) agrees to make· drawings of a country estate on condition that the lady of the manor (Janet Suzman), who commissioned him, agrees to provide sexual favors whenever he's in the mood. As the story progresses we realize that evil and hostility are swirling beneath the surface, and the artist, instead of a predator he seems, may become a victim.

Costuming, setting and cine­ matography are notable but story line is Iacking. Because of considerable male nudity and general amorality, this film is classified O. "Jaws 3-D" (Universal): This third sequel to the big block­ buster demonstrates the differ­ ence between technology and creativity. The 3-D efffects are good but the movie itself is slow-moving, talky, and dull.
