, In Catholic Spain

Pope finds change

MADRID, Spain (NC) - Pope John Paul n, the first· reigning pontiff to visit Spain, came to a country undergoing profound re ilgious and political changes.

DR. DORIS DONNELLY (left) of Princeton Theological Seminary, speaker for the catechists' session of the annual diocesan Catholic Education Convention chats with Sister Doreen Donegan, SUSC, diocesan director of religious edu cation, and Bishop Daniel A. Cronin. In two presentations, Dr. Donnelly spoke on the sacraments and on the forth coming world synod of bishops.

The major political change took place Oct. 28, ibhree days before .,the beginning of the pope's 16th foreign trip in four years, when candidates of the Spanish Socialist Workers Party earned enough parliamentary seats in the national elections to bring a socialist prime minister t-.1 power for the fiirst time since before the 1936-39 SpaniSh Civil War. Religious changes in Spain, with its overwhelming Catholic population, have also been pro found. Spain has experienced a de cline -in church aUendance, moves toward liberal abortion and divorce ;Iaws, and increasing alienation of young people, ,lead ing to drug use and delinquency. Those changes, Spanish church leaders say, may have a greater

effect on Spain in the long run than the rise to power of the Socialists. Upon arriving at the Barajas Madrid airpol't Oct. 3i for his lO-day visit, the pope announced that his journey had "an exclu _sively religious-pastoral charac ter, which sets it above political or partisan purposes." The papal schedule called for visits ito 17 Spanish cities and towns. 'The pontiff will celebrate 11 Masses and many paraliturgi cal services, ordain priests, bless new missionaries, preside at a beatification, visit five Marian sanctuaries and close celebra tions for the fourtlt centenary of the death of St. Teresa of Avila. The pope's aim was also to ad dress "themes of important so cial relevance" outside the strict ly religious sphere, said retired Bishop Fernando Sebastian Agui

Iar, former head 'of the Leon Dio cese, who noted that the pope planned talks on migration, rural problems, the situation of work-

ers and the problems of fisher men. The papal itinerary also pro vided 'the pope with opportuni ties to present personally private paUtical messages to Spanish leaders, including Felipe Gonza 'Iez, prime minister-elect, sched uled to take office in December. Shortly before the pope's ar rival rthe Spanish bishops had is sued a report noting a serious decline in practice of Catholi cism and adherence to Catholic teachings. The report said only one in three Spanish Catholics attends Mass regularly and vocations to the priesthood had fallen rapidly. It said priests who disobey their superiors, spread theologically unsound views and 'lead undici plined private lives are largely responsible for the current orisis in Spanish Catholicism. More than 98 percent of

Spain's 36.7 million people pro

fess Catholicism, whioh was the state religion until 1979.

Parish honors

'hidden saint'

After a particularly large funeral at Holy Name parish, Fall River, Bernard F. Sweeney, its sexton for 42 years, would sometimes remark to his sister, "I want a big one like that." Last Saturday, Holy Name was the scene of "a big one:' the emotional farewell of the parish family to Bernie Sweeney, 64, stricken four days earlier with a fatal heart attack. ,Leading ,the mourners was Bishop Daniel A. Cronin, who had put aside other commitments to join the parish in its grief. Virtually every priest who had served the parish in the last few decades was among the concele brants. "There wasn't one of us Ber nie didn't influence:' remarked Father John F. Moore for whom, as for many young priests, Holy Name was the first assignment after ordination. There were few dry eyes at the packed funeral Mass as lector Paul Fletcher, English depart ment chairman at Bristol Com munity College, read First Corin thians, chapter 13, which con cludes, "There are in the end three things that last: faith, hope and love, and the greatest of these is love." "This is for Bernard, my uncle and my friend," said Fletcher. Father George E. Harrison, also a nephew and Sweeney's godson, was principal celebrant and homilist: He said that "faith, hope and charity outlined Bernie's life. "They had to do with real things like getting up before dawn dally to prepare the Holy Name altar for early Mass, like feeding the birds and animals, Hke shoveling snow and mowing lawns." The priest said his uncle spent the final moments of each day in contemplation before the Holy Name altar and that he never failed to recite daily the Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Terming Sweeney a "hidden saint," Father Harrison said he regularly 'assisted in the care of a bed~idden man and took out trash for elderly neighbors un. able to manage that c!hore. He was a favorite with parish youngsters who found in him a caring counselor; and with par ents of young families, for whose offspring he always had an aa miring word. Citing Sweeney's namesakes, Father Harrison said "he loved Mary like St. Bernard and took the Gospel literally like St. Francis." Adding his personal tribute at the end of the Mass, Msgr. Daniel F. Shalloo, pastor at Holy Name since 1967, expressed grat itude to Bishop Cronin for his presence, terming it a testimonial to Sweeney's virtuous life. , Turn to Page Fifteen

Vocational Vision Tomorrow 12 men will be ordained as permanent deacons for service in the diocese of Fall River. As preparations to form another class go forward, it is most interesting to note that over 75 men throughout the diocese are' seriously considering the diaconate. What is true here is equally true in every place where the order of deacon' has been restored. One out of every 10 clerics in the American Catholic Church is now a deacon: Quite unexpectedly, since most American bishops at Vatican II did not vote for restoration of the diaconate, the Holy Spirit has turned the tables. Would that the number of those seeking to enter the priesthood was equally encour aging. , , This week's Anchor spotlights vocations to the religious life. Its main thrust is to call the attention of our readers to the 'fact that the need for vocations cannot be allowed to slip from our thoughts and prayers. Somehow the subject of vocations, especially to the priesthood, is not a so-called burning issue in to~ay's church.' Our e~forts in respec(to diverse social issues have had the effect of diluting the energies needed in' the area of vocation awareness., No matter how many other calls ar~ made upon it, the church in this country still needs pnests. We should not forget . that no one can take their place. Of course there are those who say that a· return to the so-called old values would solve all our vocational problems. Would that it were that easy! Family life, once the prime source of vocational motivation, is itself a disappearing .vocation. Social life no longer centers around church and paJish, as once it did. Even our Catholic schools seemingly ignore' vocations in favour of secular careers. For example, one of our high schools recently proudly published ~ list Qf colleges and universities that had accepted members of its senior class. ' The list did not inclu(Je one seminary. Now, this might be nitpicking.' However, let us not be afraid to say that our Catholic schools;should be a seedbed for. vocations. Why· does it seem t~at we are afraid to mention priesthood or religious life to our students? We prepare them well for the secular world. We do not even come close to giving equal time to religious vocations. In stead, careers in medicine or law, acceptance at Ivy League colleges or one of the service academies and inclusion on the list of National Merit finalists are our measures of educational success. ',.. It should be obvious that in such thinking lie the seeds of' materialism and secularism. For Catholic schools to regain their place as catalysts of vocation, they must place Gospel values on a higher plane than those of secular humanism. Fostering vocations should be the 'concern of everyone in the church. This. is not the job ot the priest alone. The family, the parish and the school share equally in the responsibility. This said, it must be admitted that there are some hopeful signs in today's church. The sincere and abiding return to prayer fostered by such movements as Engaged and Marriage Encounter; the cursillo and the charismatic renewal; the renewal program in progress in many parishes and the realization in' at least some quarters that Catholic s~ools must teach as Jesus did: all are' encouraiing glimmers of light along the vocational horizon. In that same light, may we all clarify and broaden our yocational vision.

Why be a priest?·

By Father Kevin J.

Han~ingt()D

Why would anyone want, to be a priest? The priesthood has had days whe~ ·it was held 'in higher regard and days when it has had more candidates. However, the so-called vocation crisis is act ually more a crisis of faillh. God has not stopped calling young men to the priesthood. Young men have stopped lis tening to the call. Everyone has a pet cause for the vocation shortage but few seem to have a handy resolution. The lack of priestly and reli gious vocations reflects Ciur cul ture's emphasis upon work as a means to an end. The end more often than not is money. The professions that are thEl most admired are often the best paid. For too many people, money is the main source of social esteem and consequently of one"s self esteem. To expect an abundance of vocations in such an e:rtviron ment is nothing short of fool hardy. Yet I find my greatest reasons for hope in young people. To day's youth seem to haVE! a re freshing openness to the simpli city of Christ's moral message .as embodied in the gospels de spite the fact that they live in a world filled with ambiguity and compromise in which there is much confusion as to what is right and what is wrong.
