.ASICS SWEEPING WORLD CHANGES

Pope's First EncyclicalPope John Paul II strongly

condemned the arms race and askedfor sweeping changes in the world'ssocial, political and economic life inhis first encyclical.

Titled "Redemptor Hominis"(Redeemer of Man), the encyclicalalso critized "consumer civilization"and totalitarian regimes restrictingreligious freedom. I t stronglydefended human rights, asking statesto pay more attention to applyinghuman rights rather than talkingabout them.

"DO NOT kill! Do not preparedestruction and extermination formen!" said the encyclical.

Money used to develop andpurchase arms should be diverted toincrease food production and provideother services needed by people, saidthe pope.

"We all know well that the areasof misery and hunger on our globecould have been made fertile in ashort time, if the gigantic in-vestments for armaments at theservice of war and destruction hadbeen changed into investments forfood at the service of life," said theencyclical.

I criticized developed countriesfor providing arms "in abundance"to newly independent states "insteadof bread and cultural aid"

POPE JOHN Paul's encyclicalSaid church stands on social issuesare based on Christ's redemptionwhich makes the church the guardianof the human dignity of each person.

Each individual "precisely onaccount of the redemption is en-trusted -to the solicitude of the

Just days before Pope John Paul II issued his first encyclical he visited OurLady of Czestochowa parish in Rome, where he prayed before a painting ofOur Lady. He later told the low-income parishioners of his concern for theirproblems.

church," it said. "We are dealingwith 'each'man, for each one is in-cluded in the mystery of redemp-tion."

Because of this, the church mustspeak to the specific problems of eachconcrete human being, said theencyclical.

THIS UNITY "springs" fromcollegiality, said the encyclical, whichpraised efforts to increase collegialitythrough new organizations ofbishops, priests and laymen.

Regarding restr ict ions onreligious freedom, the encyclicalalludes to communist governments,but does not mention them by name.It defends religious freedom as beingessential to the dignity of man.

"'It is therefore difficult, evenfrom a 'purely human' point of view,to accept a position that gives onlyatheism the right of citizenship inpublic and social life, while believersare, as though by principle, barelytolerated or are treated as secondclass citizens or are even — and thishas already happened — entirelydeprived of the rights of citizenship,"said the encyclical of the first pope tocome from a country under com-munist rule.

The encyclical also ' critized theconsumer society for fosteringmaterialism and causing a lot of thesharp contrasts in the world betweenthe rich and the poor.

"INDEED EVERYONE isfamiliar with the picture of theconsumer civilization, which consistsin a surplus of goods necessary forman and for entire societies — andwe are dealing precisely with the richhighly developed societies — whilethe remaining societies — at leastbroad sectors of them — are sufferingfrom hunger, with many people dyingeach day of s tarvat ion andmalnutrition," said the encyclical.

Pope's 1st encyclicalcondemns arms race

(Continued from Page 1)

"The drama is made stillworse by the presence close athand of the privileged socialclasses and of the richcountries, which accumulategoods to an excessive degreeand the misuse of whose riches"Ty often become the cause of

•rious ills," it said.

" M A N C A N N O Trelinquish himself or the placein the visible world thatbelongs to him; he cannotbecome the slave of things,the slave of economic systems,the slave of production, theslave of his own products,"added the encyclical.

The situation "requiresdaring creative resolves inkeeping with man's authenticdignity," said the encyclical.

In reading "the signs ofthe times," the encyclical saidadvances in science andtechnology are causingcontemporary man to becomeafraid of his own work becauseof the destructive power thatcan be unleased.

"He is afraid that it canbecome the means and in-strument for an unimaginableself-destruction, comparedwith which all the cataclysmsand catastrophies of historyknown to us seem to fade,"said the encyclical.

THIS IS alienating manfrom his own creative works,

said the document."At the same time,

exploitation of the earth notonly for industrial, but also formilitary purposes and theuncontrolled development oftechnology outside theframework of long-rangeauthentically humanistic planoften bring with them a threatto man's natural environment,alienate him in his relations

with nature and remove himfrom nature," added theencyclical.

"It was the Creator's willthat man should communicatewith nature as an intelligentand noble 'master' and'guardian,' and not as aheedless 'exploiter' and'destroyer,'" it said.

The moral question thatmust be asked in assessingscientific and technologicaladvances is do these "accordwith man's moral andspiritual progress," it added.

MUCH OF the problemhas been caused by"progress" divorced from areligious perspective, said theencyclical.

The encyclical does notoffer specific solutions, butgeneral guidelines that shouldbe used in formulating an-swers.

The pope advocatedsolutions based on greatersolidarity among people,redistribution of wealth andan end to physical andeconomic domination overothers by people and states.

Regarding internalchurch matters, the popeasked for a period of con-solidation, which stressestraditional Catholic valuesand the teachings of VaticanII. The encyclical praisedPope Paul VI for maintaininga "providential balance" indoctrinal matters during thecontroversies of the post-council years.

IT REAFFIRMEDtraditional church teachingssuch as the indissoluability ofmarriage, priestly celibacyand individual confession asessential for the granting offorgiveness.

Although the church"has internal difficulties andtensions," she is strengthenedby these, it said.

"She is internally morestrengthened against theexcesses of self-criticism, shecan be said to be more criticalwith regard to the various'novelties,' more mature in herspirit of discerning," said theencyclical.

The pope calledtheologians "servants ofdivine truth" and stressed theneed for them to remainunited to church teachings.

"IF IT IS permissibleand even desirable that theenormous work to be done inthis direction should take intoconsideration a certainpluralism of methodology, thework cannot, however, depart

from the fundamental unity inteaching of faith and moralswhich is that work's end,"said the encyclical.

"Nobody, therefore, canmake of theology, as it were, asimple collection of his ownpersonal ideas, but everybodymust be aware of being inclose union with the mission ofteaching truth for which thechurch is responsible," itadded.

Overall, the pope has an

optimistic view of currentchurch life.

"In spite of all ap-pearances, the church is nowmore united in the fellowshipof service and in theawareness of apostolate," saidthe encyclical.

Archbishop speaks Archbishop's statementThe following is a

Statement by ArchbishopMcCarthy on PresidentCarter's proposals for a newrefugee policy.

I welcome the proposalsto revise U.S. Refugee lawswhich President Carter senton Friday to the Senate andHouse Judiciary Committees.These proposals, as reportedin the media respond to thequestions raised by me in myletter to the President, datedDecember 31st, 1978. In thatletter, I pointed out that thelaws of the United Statesdiscriminate against those

arsons from so called "Right.ing Dictatorships", who

seek political asylum in the

United States.As the Miami Herald

stated on Friday, thePresident's proposal, if itbecomes law, "would do awaywith this ideologicalfavoritism to refugees fromCommunistic Countries thathas been a central part of U.S.refugee policy since 1952."

President Car te r ' sproposals are of immenseimportance to all of us wholive in South Florida. Becauseof our unique geographicallocation, South Florida is theonly part of the United Stateseasily accessible to those whoflee their homelands. Theyland on our shores as un-documented aliens seekingpolitical asylum here as their

country of first asylum.All other refugees who

are admitted to the U.S. mustpass through refugee camps inother countries before evenapplying for entry to the U.S.In the case of South Floridaalone, and specifically underpresent legislation, in the caseof the Haitians, the U.S. isfaced with the choice ofrecognizing their claim orreturning them to theircountry of origin. This is atthe root of the Haitianproblem. It seems to me thatthe President's proposaltherefore offers some measureof hope for our Haitianrefugees.

In addition, it wouldmake it easier for the Ad-ministration to speed up the

reunion of families separatedas a result of the CubanRevolution. I would like totake this opportunity toexpress my continued concernat the slowness of theDepartment of Justice inprocessing the Cuban politicalprisoners and their families.Despite the assurance givenfollowing my meeting withSecretary of State Vance inWashington in November,that some four hundred amonth could be cleared, only65 have so far arrived in theU.S.

In this regard, I alsowelcome the President'sappointment of AmbassadorClark to head a new Office ofRefugee Affairs in theDepartment of State. I hope

that this office will not onlycoordinate the work of thevarious offices of thegovernment involved, but alsoserve in an advocacy role onbehalf of the refugees inmaking sure that the U.S.Government fulfills its Treatyobligations. At the same timeI have recommended thatAmbassador Clark consideropening an Office of RefugeeAffairs in Miami.

Finally, of very greatinterest to all of us in SouthFlorida, is the President'sproposal to provide up to twoyears financial assistance, jobtraining and bi-lingualeducation for thenewcomers. This would helprelieve the strain on localcommunity resources.

On proof of God and prayers at LentBy FATHER JAMES V.

SCHALL

NC News Service

Lent with hits fasting,liturgy and prayers, is no mereacademic exercise. Lent is atime for thought too.Christian tradition has longheld that knowledge generally'̂ Hows faith, that we un-

rstand things because webelieve, but even then it is stillunderstanding.

In the divine office forWednesday of the third weekof Lent is a dedication of St.Theophilus of Antioch, abishop, who told a certainAutolychs frankly,. "If yousay, 'Show me your God.' Iwill say to you, 'Show mewhat kind of person you are,and I will show you my God.'

Show me then whether theeyes of your mind can see,and the ears of your hearthear." What kind of person weare evidently has somethingto do with our capacity tobelieve in God.

At first sight, this seemsstrange. But nothing innormal human experienceseems to contradict it. We dowell to recall that we choose tomake ourselves believers orunbelievers. Prayer andfasting are not, then,unimportant in knowing.

CHRISTIAN univer-sities have always used Lentas a season in which to payspecial attention to therelation of faith and intellect.In a small library in SanFrancisco, I came across acollection of Msgr. RonaldKnox's university sermons.One especially struck my

Villot's servicepraised by Pope

VATICAN C I T Y -(NC)— The measure of the lifeof Cardinal Jean Villot, papalsecretary of state, is in theservice he ' gave to JesusChrist, said Pope John Paul IIat the funeral Mass for thecardinal in St. Peter's BasilicaMarch 13.

"Biographers will showus in future the life and workof Cardinal Jean Villot in alltheir fullness," the pope saidin his homily before more than30 cardinals concelebrating theMass, numerous clergymenand about 6,000 persons.

"TODAY PERMITS usonly to repeat the words of theGospel: 'If anyone wants toserve me, let him follow me,and where I am, there also willbe my servant. If one servesme, the Father will honorhim.' Just so. This one thingonly is important, indeed thisis the essential thing. Hefollowed Christ. He wasalways there where he calledhim. He served. The measureof his whole life is in thisservice."

Cardinal Villot, the firstnon-Italian secreatary of statesince 1914, died March 9 atthe age of 73. He was the firstperson in history to serve assecretary of state under threepopes and camerlengo, orchamberlain, of the HolyHoman Church under three

jpes. In his capacity aschamberlain, he presided overthe day-to-day operations of

the church during the twointerim periods between papalreigns last year. He presidedalso over the two conclaves.

Last week, when CardinalVillot was hospitalized withbronchial pneumonia andvarious complications, thepope interrupted his lentenretreat to visit him. "Yet aweek ago, it was difficult tothink that he would have leftus," the pope aid in hishomily. "It was difficult tothink it. He seemed still full oflife and of strength..."

- The pope recalled thattwice last year, at the sameAltar of the Chair where thefuneral Mass was celebrated,Cardinal Villot had addressedthe assembled cardinalsduring the Mass for theelection of a pope.

The pope also said thatafter his election CardinalVillot told him he was ready toresign as secretary of state."But I asked him to remain atleast for a certain time," thepope said. "And he remained.He served the church with hisexperience, with his advice,with his competence."

After the Mass, CardinalVillot was buried in the 15th-century Church of Trinita deiMonti, The church overlooksthe Spanish Steps and was thecardinal's first titular church.King Charles VIII of Francecontributed to its con-struction, begun in 1495.

fancy, "The Average Man'sDoubts About God." Theseaddresses were given atOxford probably somewherein the late 1940s.

On reading this sermon, Isuddenly discovered that theso-called "average man"seemed to be fully conversantwith Aquinas' five proofs forthe existence of God plus mostof the subsequent introspectiveproofs from self-awarenessand conscience. Evidentlythere was once a day when theaverage university studentknew these proofs —and theyare proofs, even today.

Yet, Msgr. Knox waswholly sympathetic with theaverage man's doubts. He feltmost of the subtleproofs madesense especially as con-firmations of what seemedobvious, that this world reallydid not make itself. At theend, however, he admittedsome difficulty in identifyingthe God of the philosopherswith the Christian God. "Forthe sake of the First Cause,turn that blastedgramaphone off" Nor doesanyone depart saying, "Well,goodbye, old man, the PrimeMover bless you." (Though in

"Star Wars," they said, "TheForce be with you.") nor do wedefend ourselves thusly: "I'mnot narrow-minded, man, theSupreme Intelligence knows."When we take the name of theLord away, we can no longereven speak in vain.

Our proofs ultimatelyought to lead to prayer. OnThursday of the third week ofLent, the church still recallsTertullian's (an earlyChristian philosopher) treatiseon prayer:

Prayer is the one thingthat can conquer God. ButChrist has willed that itshould work no evil, and hasgiven it all power over good.

All the angels pray.Every creature prays. Cattleand wild beasts pray and bendthe knee. As they come fromtheir barns and caves theylook up to heaven and call out,lifting up their spirit in theirown fashion. The birds toorise and lift themselves up toheaven: They open out theirwings instead of hands, in theform of a cross, and give voiceto what seems to be a prayer.

What more need to besaid on the duty of prayer?

Even the Lord prayed. To himbe honor and power for everand ever. Amen.

INTELLIGENCE is oneof our spiritual powers, onewhich requires for its properfunctioning a right orientationof our whole selves. This iswhy prayer and intelligencewere never completelyseparated in the Christiantradition. Lent is thus a timefor knowledge as well asprayer, liturgy and fasting. Itis the Father himself whoblesses us.

Prayer is the one thingthat can conquer God. Allthe angels pray. Everycreature prays. Even the Lordprayed. When proofs fade intopreyer, then alone are theyreally proofs. And what aboutthe "average man's doubtabout God? Most intellectualsdoubt God because he was socarelless as to create mostlyaverage men. Without doubtsabout God, we would not bemen at all, let alone average.In the end, we are believerswith doubts. God could havemade us otherwise. But hedidn't. And this is why wepray and fast and, yes, evenprove.

MATTER OF OPINIONBeinQ entrusted, then, by God's mercy, with this ministry, we do not play the coward;we renounce all shamefaced concealment, there must be no crooked ways, no fal-

sifying of God's Word; it is by making the truth publicly known that we recommendourselves to the honest judgment of mankind, as In God's sight. (2 Corinthians 4:1-2)

Pope's First EncyclicalThere were rumors for the past couple

of months in Rome and our News Servicetransmitted them to us: The Pope waspreparing to publish his first Encyclical,and it would be the lodestar of hispontificate.

Yesterday it was released in Rome,and is entitled "Redemptor Hominis"(Redeemer of Man). It is a long document,over 24,000 words, and covers a variety ofissues concerned with mankind's develop-ment and his dependence upon theRedeeming Christ in his daily life.

The Encyclical discusses internal Churchissues, stressing the teachings of VaticanII. It also touches on the arms race, peaceand war, and asks for sweeping changes inthe world's social, political and economicorder.

A summary of John Paul ll's Encyclicalcan be found on page one of this issue.All Papal Encyclicals are important because

through them speaks the Vicar of Christ,Head of the Magisterium and Chief Teacherof the Church.

While the Pope strongly condemnssuch things as the arms race and thefalse priority of guns over food for theunder-developed nations, he also expressesgreat optimism for the future of the Church.

Despite the trials and tribulations andthe confusion and doubt of the post-VaticanII era, the Pope said "in spite of all appear-ances, the Church is now more united inthe fellowship of service and in the aware-ness of apostolate."

This Encyclical is "must" reading forCatholics who want to know not only moreabout Church, but also where it is going.It is to be noted also that the language usedby the Pope is much more related to the"modern idiom" and is not as ponderousas some Papal Encyclicals of the past.

Hope In YouthThe belief in the divine dignity and

eternal destiny of the human person, soardently promoted by our Founding Fathers,is no longer the lodestar in the adminis-tration of government affairs, or in theaffairs of the Judiciary. How else can weexplain the continuing judgments oflegislatures and courts on such issues asabortion, euthanasia, the death penalty,the sale of arms, decent housing, jobs forthe poor and care of our senior citizens?

The right to life has been narrowed tothose who have. The have nots, whetherthey be babes in the womb, the jobless,the elderly, the incarcerated, the handi-capped or uneducated are being considered,more and more, as expendable in the madrush to affluent security.

All is not lost. There is still hope. Itcomes from our young people, who areturning back to religious belief-even ifsome of the new spiritual cults are of ndubious or nebulous nature.

Our young people have tasted theKingdom of Rights, with its false freedomsand its deification of the human person.They are becoming alarmed at the degra-dation they have suffered through the drugculture; they are finding the lustful Bacchusis a false God, depriving them of theirtrue dignity; they are discovering that doing"their own thing" can be a lonely andisolating experience. Young America isslowly graduating to community, in whicheach will serve the other in love of neighbor.

Our youth have always been fascinatedwith love. They have gone through itsfalse hopes and false meanings. Now, theyare finding its real meaning. And that givesus all hope for the future.

Catholicsto confess

Q. In response to a question aboutannual confession you tell us, "The obligation ofconfession during the Easter season is still as italways has been, binding only if it is necessary foran individual to be able to receive the Eucharist."

I refer you to the church canon: "If anyonedenies that each one of Christ's faithful of bothsexes is bound to confess once a year accordingto the regulation of the great Lateran Council...lethim be anathema."

How do you explain your answer in the lightof this statement? (Del.)

A. The best — in fact, the only — way for usto discover the proper meaning of a moral ordoctrinal statement of the church is to examinehow the church itself interprets that statement.

So here, in spite of the seeming absolutecommand of yearly confession, the fact is that, inits sacramental practice and regulations, thechurch has always, at least as far as I candetermine, meant this to apply only where amortal sin had to be confessed. The context of theCouncil of Trent's cannon, and even more thecontext of the Fourth Lateran Council statementwhich you refer, support this interpretation.Moral theologians, old and new, agree almostwithout exception.

If you wish a specific example close to home,refer to the Baltimore Cathechism number three,which was, for decades before Vatican II, themost official and autoritative expression of beliefsand practices of American Catholics. Question293 asks: "What is meant by the commandmentto confess our sins at least once a year?" Theanswer: "By the commandment to confess oursins at least once a year is meant that we arestrictly obliged to make a good confession withinthe year, if we have mortal sin to confess."

I trust you realize this is not what the churchrecommends, it is a simply the bare minimumrequired. If one is in the state of mortal sin, hemust receive the sacrament of penance within theyear. Of course, if one is guilty of serious sin, hewould need to go to confession simply to fulfill theother annual sacramental obligation, to receivethe Eucharist sometime during the Easter time.

not requiredonce a year?

Any Catholic who understands how thesacrament of penance heals us in our sinfulnessand other weaknesses, and how it strengthens andreconciles us to God and to our fellow membersof the church, will normally receive this more thanonce a year, mortal sin or not.

Q. The more I read the book of Levitius themore confused I become. Why are perfectlynormal functions and things considered unclean?Where did all these strange laws about food,lepers, death, and so or originate?

Thank you for your Question Corner. I'mclipping this part of our paper and saving it forfuture reference. Hope you can help me on thisquestion. (Wash., D.C.)

A. According to Jewish law, contact withfour categories of things rendered and individualunclean, that is unfit to participate in any wor-ship. These four categories include leprosy, deadbodies, certain foods that were labelled unclean,and sexual functions. Nearly anything that hadto do with sexual intercourse, sinful or lawfulor not, was considered unclean.

This uncleanness was not necessarilysomething spiritual, and generally had nothing todo with holiness. In fact, usually it could be takenaway by simply washing oneself. But the systerrwas severly adhered to among the Hews. We leantfrom the Gospels that at least some groups ofJews, such as the Pharisees, insisted on the mostrigid observance of all such laws, a position forwhich they were frequently attacked by Jesus.

No one has ever been able to give asatisfactory explanation of the origin of theseHebraic regulations. It seems clear that theyrelate somehow to similar laws observed by pagancults among whom the Jews lived, but everyexplanation suggested appears to have as manyarguments against it as for it.

As I mentioned, Jesus' primary objection tothe whole system centered on its focus on ex-ternals. As he said, it isn't what a man eats orwhat he touches that really counts; it's what is inhis heart and what comes out of that heart thatdetermines how dood a person he is.

Oar government's ethnic discrimination

.By REV. ANDREW M. GREELEY.

WASHINGTON- (NC)-Every time I come to this city, I ameven more appalled at the pervasiveanti-urban ethnic bigotry thatpervades the federal bureaucracy.

It is not animus which is ex-plicit, open and acknowledged, but itlurks there just beneath the surfaceand has a profound influence on theway the federal agencies viewAmerican society. For the most part,the younger generation ofbureaucrats and administrators havebeen trained at the elite graduateuniversities. In the world view ofsuch institutions there are acceptablegroups and unacceptable groups. Theacceptable groups are women, blacks,Jews and Anglo-Saxon Protestant sincities of the North; the unacceptablegroups are Southerners, Fun-damentalist Protestants, peoplewhose names end in vowels andCatholics.

AT ONE TIME, the Hispanicsfell into the acceptable category, butwith the increased prejudice againstthe so-called "illegal" immigrants,the Hispanics have been taken fromthe book of the living and writtendown in the book of the dead.

After all, they're Catholicsanyway.

Let us take some examples. Thecensus has resolutely resisted askinga question on ethnicity in the 1980census. Forced by pressure groups toinclude such a question the censusstaffers deliberately refused to

consult those who had experience inasking ethnic question, fouled upbadly their pretests, and are nowshrugging their shoulders andsaying, well, it looks like we can't askany kind of ethnic question in 1980.They will, of course, collect data onAleuts and Samoans and such folks,but nothing about Irish or Italians orPoles.

Nor will the Civil RightsCommission, whose staff is almostentirely Jewish and black. This yearit has become mildly interested inethnic and religious discrimination,but ethnics mean Asian American,Hispanics, native Americans(American Indians), Aleuts andSamoans, and hardly Irish, Italians,Poles, Lithuanians and other suchunacceptable groups.

Similarly, in its concern aboutthe .civil rights of "minority"religious denominations, it is em-phasizing various sects and cults.Despite well-documented evidence ofdiscrimination against Catholics bylarge corporations, the majorfoundations and the privateuniversities, that issue just doesn'tmove the Civil Rights Comissionstaffers. They are much more con-cerned about whether, in the wake ofthe Jonestown tragedy in Guyana,people might start discriminatingagainst the members of far-outreligious cults.

Then there are review panels ofthe various federal agencies which

fund scholarships —the NationalScience Foundation, the NationalInstitute of Mental Health, theNational Endowment for theHumanities. Catholic or ethnicscholars are virtually invisible on allsuch panelsfsave for one man on thepsychosocial panel Of the NationalInstitute for Alchohol Abuse andAlcoholism). The staffs of theseagencies lean over backwards tomake sure that scholarships are madeavailable when possible to Asian andHispanic scholars, but somehowCatholics just don't seem to make thereview panels. Pressed on the subjectthey will' shrug their shoulders andsay, well, gosh, there just aren't anydistinguished Catholic around in ourfield.

SUCH AN assertion isdemonstrably false. There areCatholic scholars with publicationrecords that normally would winthem places on such review panels,but they are systematically excluded.

It is no accident; their exclusion issurely intentional even if it isn't fullyself-conscious.

Finally, the staff of the WhiteHouse itself is utterly unaware thaturban Catholic Americans havepolitical and social agendas, muchless that the president of the UnitedStates ought to be concerned aboutsuch agendas. Mr. Carter promisedsolemnly during the election campaign

that he would do something to seethat there was aid to Catholicschools. Califano, his source of in-formation about Catholics, hasassured him that he doesn't have tohonor that promise (Mr. Califano alsoused to be the president's principalexpert on family stability; hismarriage has ended in divorce). Noone on the White House staff seemsat all worried about the accuracy ofCalifano's advice. Indeed it is a majorachievement that they were able tosend a presentable delegation tovarious papal funerals andinaugurations last fall. Having donethat, the White House staff is proudof what it's done for Catholics.

I have two problems about thisanti-Catholicism. First of all, it'shard on those of us who, one way orthe other, must earn our living withthe federal bureaucracy. The lives ofone-quarter of the Americanpopulation simply do not interest thefederal government.

More seriously, however, youcan ignore one-quarter of thepopulation or treat it like dirt onlyjust so long, and then you're going tomake some really major blunders.The social fabric of the country isgoing to be threatened by the angryreaction to them.

I felt during this particularpilgrimage to Washington that weare much closer to such an explosionthan we were a year ago.

On Saturday morning husbands, etc.

, By DOLORES CURRAN.

•The Saturday morning husbandsat at the kitchen table with hiscoffee and idly chatted with his wifeas she worked around the kitchen. Hewatched her for awhile and then hesaid, "I hope you don't mind asuggestion. I've been sitting herewatching you work and it seems tome that you have a lot of wastedmotion. First, you started to clearthis table but then you stopped andstarted to clear the counter. Youstopped that and started to washdishes, stopped that and emptied thedish drainer, stopped that andstraightened up the cupboard."

His analysis took on aprofessional tenor. "Now, at theoffice, I encourage people to finish ajob once it's begun. Interrupted workis lost money. After watching you, Ican see that you operate by in-terruption and that you would getyour work done much faster if you

finished one task before you begananother."

He finished.She eyed him speculatively for a

moment and then replied,"I can seethat you don't understand my workprocedures. You see, I needed to clearthe table to roll out a pie crust, butwhen I began to carry the dishes tothe counter, I realized I had to clearthe counter first, which meant I hadto wash the dirty dishes which meantI needed to empty the clean oneswhich meant that to make room forthem I had to straighten up thecupboard."

She paused. "But I can see youranalysis is very valuable. It just gaveme insight into how to get all thisdone much faster." And she handedhim the dishcloth.

Why is it we always seem betterable to organize other people's workhabits? Parents are notorious for

this. We, who have drawers sojumbled they won't open, knowexactly how our children's dresserdrawers should look. We, whodiscreetly close certain doors whencompany comes, explain to ourchildren how simple it is to keep theirrooms neat and orderly at all times.

Young husbands have a com-pulsion to organize their wife's workday at home (Old husbands wantnone of it.) Grandmothers tell theirgrown daughters to speed up, slowdown, or idle. In exchange, grownchildren have all the answers forgrandparents —where they shouldlive, how they should spend theirtime and money, and what theyshould plant in the garden.

Next to choice of spouse,people's work habits are the mostpersonal operative in their daily lives.Work habits, like children, are bornwith the individual and they changeand develop as he does. That's why

Miami,

one person must work under pressureto get anything done while anothercan't work under pressure at all.

I know a woman who likes tosew for her family but she has neveryet finished an outfit ear her than anhour before it is worn. On the otherhand, I know a woman so efficientthat she sends her baked goods threedays before the bake sale. They'reput on "day old" the minute thebake "sale opens.

Our work is very important toour lives, whoever we are. We cannudge a little here and there butultimately our children's andspouses's work habits must be theirown. And, as for Saturday morninghusbands, once they wash a dish ortwo, they're likely to find themselvesurgently called to the hardware storeafter which the Saturday afternoonwife can proceed to tell them how tofix the sink.Florida / THE VOICE / Friday, March 16,1979 / Page 7

The Public Ministry of Jesus -- Love and UnderstandingThroughout the

Gospels is woven the storyof Jesus' charity. Theultimate sign of his charityis the cross. This act andhis victory over life tells usthat our lives, too, areeverlasting. But if we areto share the Kingdom withhim, we must becomemore and more like him.We, too, must pray as hedid at Gethsemane, for

strength to do God's will.Like him, we must com-bine prayer and action.Like him, we must loveGod and our fellow man.We, too, Must relievehuman suffering wheneverpossible.

Jesus was the perfectexample of someone wholinked the divine and thehuman dimensions of life.

And with each generation,he places those among uswho seek and learn to linkthe divine and humandimensions. Each of us iscalled to pursue evergreater understanding.Each of us is called to befully human. Each of us iscalled to become likeJesus. The paths we takeare diverse, but thedestination is the same.

From time to time, weneed to examine ourmotives for what we do.Are we so caught up in ourdaily activities that we arebehaving more likemachines than people)? Areour achievements Christcentered or self centered?Are we giving ourselves toChrist and others ? Or arewe giving for our own self•gratification ?

Why charity to so-called poor?• % .

By STEVE LANDREGAN

"Charity begins at home."

No, these words are not from theBible, although they frequently arequoted with a reverence and certitudereserved for Holy Writ. They are thewords of a pagan author, Terence,who penned them about 200 yearsbefore Jesus began his publicministry.

Some centuries later, a witcompleted the couplet by adding"...and usually ends there."

Where does charity begin?Where does it end? In an affluentsociety like ours, is there need forpersonal charity?

As Christians we confront suchquestions, in one form or another,almost daily. Often we regard themas purely political or economic andsee no religious or moral dimension tothem.

Where does charity begin? Itbegins with Christ. Charity is Love,not love in the narrow physical andsensual sense of the popular balladand movie, but love in the senserevealed by Jesus in his life of perfectlove for men and women.

Page 8 / Miami, Florida / THE VOICE / Friday, March 16,

"lean see any goodreason for people being poor in thiscountry. I haven't seen anything that has convinced methat people with good health can't find jobs. I believethey choose to be supported by the State and "do-good"organizations. I don't resent giving to the ill, researchprograms and the like, but I do resent bringing cannedgoods, fruit or anything else to Mass for the liturgy. AndI don't think a poor box should be at the back of ourchurches. The Church's approach interfers with myability to worship."

Where does charity end? St.Paul answers that in 1 Cor. 13. "Lovenever ends." Yes, we agree. Lovedoes not come to and end, butpeople's need for charity does. Hownice it is to be able to switch wordsaround to suite ourselves. Charityhas to suite ourselves. Charity suchan institutional an impersonal ring.Doesn't it?

Euphemisms help us avoidreality. When we say someone"Passed on" instead of saying shedied. We are only fooling ourselves.Death is death and no other word'changes it. Love is love. It issomething that we are called to by

1979

Christ's word and by his life. Warecalled to love the Father as Christloved him and we are called to loveone another as Christ loved us.

God could have left usunredeemed, unreconciled, separatedfrom him forever. After all. We haveratified our separation from God byoriginal sin through our individualpersonal sin. We have validatedhumanity's decision for selfishness.God could have left us unredeemed,but he didn't.

Yet, we so easily say, he or sheor they don't deserve help. They havegotten themselves into it. Let them-

get themselves out of it. Sort ofreminds you of the parable of theungrateful servant, doesn't it? Youremember, the one who was forgiventhe great debt by his master, thenhad a friend tossed in prison for amuch smaller amount. And howabout the fact that in the UnitedStates provisions are made for thepoor? There are food stamps, Aid forFamilies with Dependent Children,Medicare, Medicaid, the wholesystem of public welfare. Our taxmoeny goes for that, doesn't it? Isn'tthat charity? The answer is yes. Thiswill to help others on the part of thegovernment is consciously or un-consciouly the Gospel in action. Butdoes it relieve us of our publicobligation to reach out in unselfishlove to others?

The answer is no.Nothing relieves us of our

Gospel mandate to love as Jesus did.Our obligation to be charitable is nomore or less than Jesus' command tous to love as he has love us (John 15,12).

To ignore that command is toreturn to the greed and selfishnessthat Jesus died to overcome. Charitybegins with Christ. It never ends.But we can close our hearts to it-

"No prepareis la destruction de los hombre s"Por ARACELI CANTERO

En su primera carta pasto-ral a la Iglesia universal el Pa-pa Juan Pablo II se hace vozde todos los creyentes del mun-do para pedir a los pueblos ylas naciones que "respeten losderechos a la religion y a lasactividades de la Iglesia."

conoce que no faltan en ella"dificultades y tensiones",aunque ve tambien una Iglesiamas fortalecida y madura ymas consciente de su mision."

El Papa habla de la Iglesiaen la primera parte de la cartaenciclica en la que va resu-miendo la herencia recibida alsubir al pontrficado.

Despues de introducir aCristo Encarnado como elcentro del universo recuerdasus primeras palabras comoPapa, dirigidas a Cristo Re-dentor y expresa. su confianzaen el Espiritu de amor y ver-dad que guio a sus ariteceso-

Recuerda especialmente aPablo VI y su enciclicaEclesiam Suam asi como elprogreso de la Iglesia en elcampo de la colegialidad de losobispos, el apostolado de loslaicos y la labor por la unidadentre los cristianos, pronun-ciandose en contra de los quepor miedo quisieran abando-nar la labor ecumenica.

La segunda parte de la ear-ta del Papa trata el Misterio dela Redencion, y en seis puntosdesarrolla ese misterio enCristo, su dimension divina yhumana, el misterio de Cristocomo base de la mision de laIglesia y del cristianismo y lamision de la Iglesia y la liber;tad humana.

A lo largo de esta seccionel Papa afirma que la dignidadde la persona humana es "par-te del contenido de la procla-macion" del evangelio, y dice

que "ya que la verdadera liber-tad del hombre no se encuentraen todo lo que los diversos sis-temas e individuos presentancomo libertad, la Iglesia, porsu divina mision, se proclama

guardiana de esta libertad,condicion y base para la verda-dera dignidad de la personahumana."

Piden Pastoral sobre Ministeriosy Diaconado Permanente

DALLAS-(NC)- "Hallegado el momento" de que losobispos de la nacion escribanuna carta pastoral sobre elDiaconado Permanente ysobre la cuestion de los minis-terios en general segun el pre-sidente de la asociacion na-cional de directores de progra-mas de diaconado permanente,reunidos en asamblea generala primeros de marzo.

El padre Robert Kearnsafirmo ante 167 participantesde 94 diocesis, que tal carta delos obipos "puede darnos la vi-sion y reconocimiento de lapresencia del Espiritu en elmovimiento diaconal y en elministerial, y nos ahorrariamucha confusion para los anosvenideros sobre conflictos deresponsabilidades o u orienta-cion equivocada." dijo.

Enciclica papal en defensa de la persona humana(VienedelaPag. 9)

sia, la tarea de buscar que "to-da persona pueda encontrar aCristo, para que Cristo puedacaminar con cada uno el cami-nodelavida."

El Papa afirma que el"hombre es el camino princi-pal que la Iglesia debe recorrerpara realizar su mision, y por-que el hombre, —todo hombresin excepcion — ha sido redimi-do por Cristo, y porque con elhombre —con cada hombre sinexcepcion —Cristo estaunido,aunque el mismo hombre nosea consciente de ello."

"Por ese compromiso conel hombre la Iglesia," dice elPapa, "no puede dejar desefialar los signos de los tiem-pos que afectan al hombre."El Papa sefiala los miedos delhombre moderno: miedo alproducto de sus manos, y de suintelecto, que va ya convritien-dose en amenaza de destruc-cion.

"El desarrollo de la tecno-logia... exige un desarrolloproporcional de la moral y laetica," dice el Papa, y se pre-gunta "iAcaso el progreso ha-ce la vida en la tierra mas hu-mana? <,La hace mas digna delhombre ? El Papa sefiala que"esta en juego la mejora de laspersonas" y no la "acumula-cion de cosas," y denuncia almismo tiempo diferencias so-fiales fruto de la sociedad deconsume Cuestiona los meca-nismos en que se apoya la eco-nomia mundial y hace una lla-mada a la solidaridad queinspire busqueda de solu-ciones justas.

"Esta responsabilidad sehace especialrnente evidentepara nosotros los cristianos alrecordar la escena del juicio fi-nal en el evangelio de S. Ma-teo... Tuve hambre y me distede comer...' "

Estas palabras se cargande fuerza al pensar que en vezde pan y ayuda cultural, a losestados y naciones que des-piertan a la independencia seles pfrecen, a veces en abun-dancia, armas modernas y me-dios de destruccion, al servi-cio de conflictos armados yguerras que no son tartto re-quisitos pra la defensa de susjustos derechos y su sobe-rania, sino una forma de chovi-nismo, imperialismo o neocolo-nialismo de algun tipo. Sabe-mos bien que areas de miseriay hambre de nuestro globopodian haberse hecho fertilesen poco tiempo, si las gigan-tescas inversiones de arma-mentos al servicio de la guerray la destruccion se hubierancambiado en inversiones enalimento y al servicio de la vi-da," dice el Papa.

La Iglesia, que no tiene asu disposicion otras armas quelas del Espiritu, de la palabra .y del amor, no puede renunciara su proclamacion de "la pa-labra a tiempo y a des-tierro," dice el Papa.

"Por esta razon no cesa deimplorar a ambas partes y depedir a todos.en el nombre deDios y del hombre: iNo mateis!No prepareis la destruccion yla exterminacion para loshombres! jPensad eri vuestros

hermanos y hermanas quesufren el hambre y la miseria!Respetad la dignidad y liber-tad de cada uno!",afiade.

El Papa pide que la defen-sa de los derechos humanos nose quede en palabras muertasy deplora que a pesar de lasdeclaraciones de la Organiza-cion de las Naciones Unidas(O.N.U.), se continiien lasviolaciones de los derechos hu-manos.

"La Iglesia siempre ha en-senado el deber de ctuar por elbien comun y al hacerlo ha"educado buenos ciudadanospara cada estado. Ademas haensenado que ,el deber funda-mental de todo 'poder' es la so-licitud hacia el bien comun dela sociedad: esto es lo que da alpoder su derecho fundamen-tal" dice el Papa.

"Los derechos del poder. solo se pueden entender sobrela base del respeto a los in-violables y objetivos derechosdel hombre. Solo cuando todoslos ciudadanos estan segurosde los derechos llega a realizar-se el bien comun al que sirve laautoridad de un estado. La fal-ta de esto lleva a la disolucionde la sociedad, la oposicion ala autoridad, la agresion, inti-

midacion, violencia y terroris-mo De ahi que el principiode los derechos humanos es deprofunda importancia en elarea de la justicia social y es lamedida por la que esta se mide

y pone a prueba en la vida delos cuerpos politicos."

'.'Estos derechos debida-mente incluyen el derecho a lalibertad religiosa y libertad deconciencia," anade.

La humanidad de Juan Pablo II y su simpatia por la persona huma-na, salta a la vista en esta fotografia. Los pilotos que le acompananen una de sus visitas en helico'ptero, sonrfen complacidos ante elPapa que saluda a uno de sus companeros en vuelo.

La carta del Papa reafirmala union de Cristo con elhombre y su re-creacion por laRedencion en "hombre nuevo"y coparticipe de la vida deDios,,elpoder del Espiritu, y lamision profetica de Cristo. Re-afirma a la Iglesia responsabley al servicio de la verdad quedesea amar y conocer y pide alos teologos testimonio de uni-dad y colaboracion con el ma-gisterio.

"Nadie puede hacer de lateologia..... una simple colec-cion de sus ideas personales,"dice el Papa, quien pide tam-bien especial atencion a la ca-tequesis "empezando por elcampo fundamental de la cate-quesis familiar."

La carta termina con unareflexion sobre la Eucaristia yla Penitencia "dos dimen-siones de la autentica vidacristiana," y sobre esta comofidelidad a la propia vocacionde servicio, en ejercicio plenode la verdadera libertad.

El Papa termina poniendoa Maria como modelo y Madrede la Iglesia, y haciendo una"ardiente y humilde llamada"a la oracion, en compania deMaria, para recibir al EspirituSanto y "c/mvertirnos en testi-gos de Cristo hasta los confi-nes de la tierra."

•Para que todos encuentren a CristoDERECHO A LA RELIGIONSENAL DE PROGRESO

"En nombre de todos loscreyentes del mundo, hago unallamada a aquellos de quienesdepende de algun modo la or-ganizacion de la vida social ypolitica, urgiendoles que res-peten los derechos a la religiony a la actividad de la Iglesia.No se les pide ningun privile-gio, solo respeto a un derechofundamental.

La realizacion de este de-recho es uno de las pruebasfundamentales del autenticoprogreso del hombre bajo cual-quier regimen, en cualquier so-ciedad, sistemao ambiente.

SIN MIEDO ALECUMENISMO

A todos los que por cual-quier motivo, quisieran di-suadir a la Iglesia de buscar launidad universal de los cris-tianos, se les deberia hacer lapregunta" ^Acaso podemos de-jar de hacerlo? iPodemos dejarde confiar, a pesar de toda ladebilidad humana y todas lasfaltas de siglos pasados, en lagracia del Senor ? Si lo hi-ciaramos, negariamos la ver-dad sobre nosotros mismos,segiin fue elocuentementeexpresada por el Apostol: iPorla gracia de Dios soy lo quesoy, y su gracia no ha sido va-na en mi!)

Nos referimosaqui a lo expresado en el pri-mer mensaje del Creador alentregar al hombre la tierra pa-ra "dominarla".

How the new Bishop outfoxed newsmanBy TONY GARNETVoice Photographer

With the EpiscopalOrdination of Msgr. JohnNevins set for a week fromSaturday, if I don't get it offmy chest now, his new rankwith the Archdiocese will forcethat Italian breeding of"respect" and I'll be a deadgoose insofar as reminding myfriend about, shall we say, hisreceding hairline.

I'm blabbing about itbecause as my friend, nay, mybuddy, he should not haveoutwitted me. He came to TheVoice one recent day and withhis usual charm and "how areyou today, Tony" he com-pletely disarmed me with hissimple request.

HE NEEDED, he said, ahead and shoulder shot(portrait) of himself and gave

some lame excuse why, whichnow escapes me. No sweat, Isaid, I've got a file full of you.The only problem is findingone where the reflection offyour (bald) head hasn't foggedmy film. We laughed. Thisgoes on all the time when wemeet on assignments. I gavehim a picture and he left.

Let me back up. I'm notparticularly privy to chancerysecrets, in spite of my so-called "in" at that office. Iknow an assignment is out ofroutine when I get one ofthose "be at the Archbishop'shouse at 8 in the morning"orders.

The day I received thatassignment from my editor,Gerry Sherry, he also told mehe needed 50 prints of Msgr.Agustin Roman by 4 p.m. Itwas now after 2 p.m. And hefurther admonished me tokeep my mouth shut about

HE HAD outwitted meon a newspaper 'scoop',because if he had asked for 50head and shoulder prints...!

To make a long complaintshort, Mother Nevins in adelicate Irish broguewhispered "and now whywould His Excellency invite

Haitians had to leave theircountry, but that "it has beengoing on for quite a while withrefugees coming to Miamiand such places as Chicago,New York, Brooklyn, andBoston.

•."Lack of work, Ibelieve, is the reason," hesaid. "That's what the peopletold me when I was in Haiti. Alot of kids go to grammarschool, then to high schooland then they come out andhave absolutely nothing to do,and they don't care to work onthe land and do agriculturalwork. Due to the fact that somany of their family, friendsor relatives live in the States,they always have in mind thatthey will be traveling theresomeday —hoping thatthey'll get some work. Ibelieve it is mainly a questionof lack of work."

FATHER PELO -QUIN said there is tobe no separate apostolate ofthe Haitians, but they need apriest who speaks the Creolelanguage. While mostHaitians speak and un-derstand French, many whohaven't an education speakonly Creole.

"Creole dates back toColonial times in Haiti duringNapoleon's era," the Oblatepriest said. "I believe part ofthis language came fromAfrica and then the Haitianscame under the tutelage of theFrench people. I believe theymixed the African languagewith the French language, andmade it. the Creole language.

"Many trace their an-cestry back to the slaves.They were brought over fromLiberia during Napoleon'stime. Haiti was a Frenchcolony, and according to thehistory books, was discoveredby Columbus. He found some

Fr. MARCEL PELOQUIN

Indians, because Haiti and theDominican Republic were justone island—it was separatedlater on. Then Napoleonbrought over many Blacksfrom Africa and made slavesout of them. This is why theyfought for their own in-dependence.

"Creole has its grammar— it is a real language. Ac-tually, in Haiti they insist thepeasants (those who areunable to go to school) learnCreole. At one time theylearned French —this issomething new—now, theyhave to learn Creole, and a lotof uneducated people can readand write Creole, which is agood thing. We have a lot ofpublications in Creole."

FATHER PELOQUINsaid most of the Haitians hereare born Catholics, but theChurch has lost many of themthrough the proselytizing ofProtestant sects on the island.The Haitians here have lots ofproblems which includeunemployment, immigrationdifficulties and housing.

"They have a tendency tostick together, he said. "Theyhelp each other very much.

These are people who shareamongst each other. It datesback to their upbringing inHaiti—in Haiti that's the wayit is. If someone is needy, theywill be there to help them out.I get the feeling that it is thesame way in Miami. If aperson comes in from Haitiand has no home — well, the'llfind a place for him."

Father Peloquin says hehopes to help sustain theHaitians in the Miami area,both spiritually andmaterially. The Archdiocese ispresently planning a HaitianCenter where they can meetfor the distribution of theSacraments and social events.

"I believe that if we havecultural center it will bringmany Haitians back to theChurch," he said. "Now, theyare more or less scatteredaround the city—they feelthat they are more or less leftout. In Haiti they have theirown parishes and they are notaccustomed to this..

"IT'S THE SAME WAYwith the Italians, Polish,French Canadians when theyfirst come into a country—it'snot their own place. I believethis center will help. Someneed clothing, some food. Thiscenter will serve also as asocial gathering place, butprimarily for spiritual needs."

Inter-Faith Councilactive in Broward

The Inter-faith Council.ofSouth Broward is a group ofJews and Christians, bothclergy and lay people, livingwithin the Greater Hollywoodarea.

THE COUNCIL MEETSonce a month for fellowship

and prayer, often at a place ofworship, to thank theirCreator for the manyblessings with which He hasgraced His people.

Through their sharedreflections on the underlyingvalues of faith, they attemptto reverse "the curse ofBabel" and the estrangementdue to historical andtheological situations. Ad-ditionally, they sponsorcommunity enriching ac-tivities. Last Fall theysponsored a musical programwhere selections of the musicof faith of the Jewish, Catholicand Protestant families wereheard.

Currently the Inter-faith

Council is sponsoring aprogram involving the variousfaith communities of theGreater Hollywood area in acommon effort to assist thecivic leaders in their desire toreduce crime. Recently aneducational dimension waspursued at Chaminade HighSchool's adult educationprogram to share with thepeople of Greater Hollywoodthe exciting and challengingaspects of inter-faith dialogueand cooperation.

The underlying belief isthat by combined efforts andprayers, God's reign can beextended throughout theGreater Hollywood area.

Miami, Florida I THE VOICE I Friday, March 18,1979 I Page 19

St.Vincent dePaulEditors Note: Breathing new

hope into the life of a fellow humanby willing people exemplifies the trueministry of Jesus Christ. We areprinting from such a person hisletter, unedited, sent to St. Vincentde Paul Society, after his desperateplight was first revealed in ActionLine of the Miami Herald.... whofollowed through to find help. Weomit his name out of courtesy to hisprivacy.

To St. Vincent de Paul:How can I ever thank the many

people from your guild for all theassistance they are providing me,Your financial officer has been hereseveral times, and each time has beenof incalculable help to me from food,to furniture, and good-will.

Strange, I never before en-countered people like that, and it iswith overwhelming thanks, andgratitude, that there are people likeyou in this world, to assist un-fortunates.

Your assistance, in this time ofdire need, has literally saved mysanity, and frankly my physical self,because previously, I was in totaldespair, that matters could ever getbetter, and that the whole thingwasn't worth living for. In fact, Iknow, that I was heading for amental breakdown, and that wouldhave been it. I wouldn't have cared.Now, with your assistance and in-terest. Life has taken on a new

Action Line solves problems, gets answers, nils red tapestands up for rights, tf rite Action IJne, I he Miami Herald, IHerald Plaza, Miami, Ha. .VilOI. Or call .ISO-l.W.i from 9a.m. to 9 p.m. any day of the week.

A housing inspector took one look at the place I wasstaying in and declared it a violation of the housing code. Iwas sharing a one-bedroom apartment with five other peo-ple. It was difficult for all of us because I'm confined to awheelchair. My social worker and several county agenciesworked together to find me a place of my own. I now havea one-bedroom apartment. The trouble is, there's no furni-ture. I have a TV table, my wheelchair and nothing else. It'shard to beg at 65, but I'm broke. I'd be grateful if you couldfind me a bed. — J.P.S., Hialeah

You've got your bed — and a dresser, couch, kitchentable and chairs and even a TV, thanks to the Society of St.Vincent de Paul. Folks there worked fast.

dimension, and again I am living likea human being, with a new outlookon whatever life I have left, as I ama terminal cardio-vascular victim,with severe myocardial infarction,and I am sixty five, and the Lordcertainly must have His eyes on me,to change my life from despondencyto contentment, as well as your guild.My overwhelming and eternal thanksfor your assistance, and interest inme, regardless of how mypredicament reached you folks. I amsixty five, and never, in my lifetimehave seen such dedicated people, inmy life. Frankly, I never knew theyexisted. I originally thought it wasjust talk.

That thought has now beenbanished from my mind, as I havevisible proof that there are people inthis world, willing to make sacrificesfor others, and luckily, or otherwise. Iwas one of what is commonly called,the .unfortunates, possible throughfate, or otherwise. Unfortunately,being a semi shut in, cane and wheelchair, my heartfelt thanks, are allthat I can offer, and your guild isgoing to see that I receive thesacraments at home, as I am unableto get to a church, for over thirteenmonths. Again, a fervid thank you.May the good Lord continue taholdyou in the palms of his Hands, andkeep watch over you people, like youare doing to me.

Gratefully Yours,
