Salt + light’S inluencearound the world

By Brndan Collins, Sminarian and Formr

Intrn, Salt + Light Tlvision

I am a studnt at th Irish Collg in Rom,

in my scond yar o thological studis at

th Pontical Univrsity o St. Thomas. This

is my ourth yar o sminary ormation, th

rst two yars wr spnt at th DiocsanSminary – St. Malachy’s Collg, Blast.

So, why th pristhood? I am rom a town

calld Omagh in Northrn Irland whr I

was brought up by my parnts in a Catholic

hom, with my two brothrs and two sistrs.

My grandmothr livd clos to us and was a

grat witnss to th aith. I was involvd in my

parnts’ businss or svral yars and dcidd

that this was an ara I might pursu.

So, at th ag o 20, I wnt to univrsity to

study Businss Managmnt.

Th nxt thr yars wr spnt studying w

also managing a busy grocry stor in Bla

City. Th rol brought a varity o valuabl

xprincs, most o which wr born out

o mting and intracting with popl on

prossional and prsonal lvl.

Atr th dath o a clos rind and a ammmbr I ralid th importanc o th p

and whil I had considrd a pristly vocati

I did not l rady to pursu this path. I

bcam rinds with a young prist who

hlpd m to s th wondrul git o th

pristhood and to undrstand that it com

a git rom God. I rcall a quot rom Blss

Mothr Trsa that summd up how I was

undrstand pristhood: “w ar th pncil

God’s hand,” sh said.

2 • L AMPSTAND

Dar Frinds,

Last Jun, Pop Bndict inauguratd a “Yar or Prists” inclbration o th 150th annivrsary o th dath o St. John

Mary Vianny. Th Pop also chos a rlatd thm or World

Communications Day, 2010: “Th prist and pastoral ministry in a

digital world: nw mdia at th srvic o th Word.”

This thm is particularly rlvant to our work at Salt + Light

Tlvision, and to all who work in communicating th Good Nws

and th story o th Church through multimdia. W ar calld ach

day to ngag all popl in our orts to tll th story o Jsus and

th Church to th world.

Th past wks and months, I hav rfctd on th mdia challngs

acd by Salt + Light Tlvision and th Church. I har and raddback rom our many viwrs – both on air and through our

intractiv Salt + Light wbsit – who xprss a dsir or us to giv

nw orms o triumphalism, juridicism, and clricalism to th Church

through our ntwork.

A triumphalist approach would rquir us to xrcis authority

through aggrssiv condmnation and xcommunication, and

blivs that th Church and its rprsntativs hold th truth but

also th answrs to vry modrn dilmma.

Th juridicism approach sarchs out laws – nw or old – to justiy

prsonal positions or idologis in th Church. Juridicists dlight in

ocusing on liturgical practics, which otn rsult in hoops through

which popl must jump.

Th clricalist approach xaggrats th authority o th prist or

bishop, crating a nw authoritarianism. Th clricalist oprats as i

ordaind ministrs ar ntitld to spcial status and privilg in th

Church and in socity. Clricalists giv littl mrit to collaboration

with th laity and thir involvmnt in ndavours lik Salt + Light

Tlvision. This position contnts itsl with a sris o “talking had”

prists, sistrs and Church ladrs who simply “talk at popl” rathr

than ngaging thm in a living crating dialogu.

Th ordaind prist, conscratd rligious and ladrs o th Church,spcially whn acting as part o a public ministry, rprsnt Christ

th Had and Good Shphrd o th Church. Whn rligious

broadcasting and mdia ar manipulatd by or bcom instrumnts

o groups that mov th Church toward such orms o triumphalism,

juridicism, and clricalism, w ail in our mission o hlping popl to

grow into a dynamic, brathing, hopul Church.

At Salt + Light Tlvision, w rmly bliv that Jsus Christ is indd

th Truth, and that its ullnss is ound in th Catholic Church. But

w also mbrac our rol in sking out – with humility and in lighto th Gospl – how to rspond to th many and varid dmands

o today’s world. W do not impos th Gospl on th world, but

propos it as an altrnativ vision o complling bauty. W sk to

prsuad by grac, truth, bauty, aith and rason through our many

tlvision programs and tachings.

During th homily o his Installation Mass narly v yars ago at th

Vatican, Pop Bndict XVI said: “Th Church as a whol and all hr

Pastors, lik Christ, must st out to lad popl out o th dsrt,

towards th plac o li, towards rindship with th Son o God,

towards th On who givs us li, and li in abundanc.”

That is our mission at Salt + Light Tlvision. Thank you or your

gnrosity, prayrul support and nancial assistanc. Thank you

or supporting prists in this spcial yar o thanksgiving or pristly

ministry in th church.

Th world nds Salt + Light Tlvision now mor than vr. W

nd th favour o th Gospl to prmat th tastlss lmnts o

th cultur that surrounds us and th light o Christ to pntrat th

darknss that ncircls us.

May th Lord blss you and your lovd ons abundantly during ths

days o patinc longing and joyul waiting o th emmanul, God

truly with us.

Sincrly yours in Christ,
