6 THE EXAMINER JULY 07 2012

T

here is no doubt that the faith formaon in our

Archdiocese is of a high-quality and responds to

the needs of the children youth and adults right

through the year But the queson is Are the

results achieved consonant with the eff orts put in Even

though the community is very posive and supporve of

faith formaon and recognizes the tremendous work that is

being done perhaps there is a gnawing feeling deep within

that something is missing We wonder for instance why

teenagers even aer a rigorous Confirmaon programme

are so tepid about the Church and their faith Where are all

the youth and young adults in their twenes and thires

We ask ourselves why do some families get involved in

Church and religion only when they are celebrang a

milestone or a Sacrament We look at the parcipants in

our adult faith forma

on programmes and recognize thesame faces and we ask ourselves where are the rest It also

appears that the number of people coming to celebrate the

sacrament of reconciliaon regularly are on the decline

There is also the queson of the eff ecveness of our

outreach to those who have le the Church

One therefore begins to wonder if the present trends

connue what does the future hold for the Church How

can the Church eff ecvely respond to this scenario In

parcular what is the kind of faith formaon should she

engage in so that Catholics both love and live their faith

In this context the message of Pope Benedict XVI in his

apostolic leer `Porta Fidei ( October 11 2011) is pernent

He declares that ldquofaith formaon will be eff ected through athorough and an ongoing catechesis (based on Magisterial

teachings especially the Catechism of the Catholic Church)

and which aims to deepen peoplersquos contact with Jesus

Christ via contemporary educaonal and enrichment

opportunies designed to touch the intellect as well as the

heart and oriented to enable people to live and experience

a more Christ-centred life Furthermore such faith

formaon programmes which also imply a constant process

of ongoing conversion will find their fulfillment in a joyful

and commied witnessing of our Catholic faith which has

made such a vital diff erence to our livesrdquo

The milieu that we live in poses many challenges to our

faith lives and so there is an urgent need of designing new

iniaves to provide vibrant faith formaon for all ages if we

are to flourish as vibrant witnesses of Christ today

John Roberto in Faith FormaƟ on 2020 Designing the

Future of Faith FormaƟ on (published by Lifelong Faith

Associates and Vibrant Faith Ministries CT 2010) presents

four scenarios for envisioning the future of faith formaonAccordingly we have 1) People of vibrant faith and acve

engagement in the Church community 2) People who

parcipate occasionally but are not acvely engaged or

spiritually commied 3) People who are spiritual but not

religious and 4) People who are uninterested in spiritual

life and unaffiliated with religion He goes on to state that

`while no one can definively map the future of Chrisan

faith formaon there are tools that congregaons can

use to interpret their current reality and thus envision the

future Scenario planning is one of those toolsrsquo And so it is

Fai t h For mat i on

Today and Tomorrow

digital media and web technologiesdigital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potentialwhich possess tremendous potential

to provide aith ormation and engageto provide aith ormation and engage

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

praccesmdashinto the daily lives of peopleWhile many of these proposals are already implemented

in one way or another perhaps what is needed is a greater

opmizaon of as well as markeng of the resources

available We conclude with the srring invitaon of

our Holy Father who in `Porta Fideirsquo declares ldquoMay

we rediscover the content of the faith that we profess

celebrate it and live itrdquo (No 9)

theological virtues is God Himselftheological virtues is God Himselfbut if we have no Faith webut if we have no Faith we

aith opens for us a completely

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

of the three theological virtues Theobject of all the three theological

virtues is God Himself but if we

have no Faith we cannot have Hope

and Charity

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Our journey of Faith like in

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

God delays in answering our prayersGod delays in answering our prayers

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

Enabling young people to live as disciples through their

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

(the church) because under UNESCO rules the board

in charge of running a place for the UN agency is the

government not the owner of a siterdquo

Bishop tells communicators

ldquothey serve Church asfaithful prophetsrdquoCatholic communicators who are filled with faith can serve

as prophets by their commitment to spread the good

news of Christ to the world Bishop Christopher J Coyne

apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis

told Catholic Media Conference participants Explaining

that prophets speak ldquothe truth of thingsrdquo Bishop Coyne

reminded the journalists and communicators during his

homily at the opening Mass that the faithful are ldquocalled by

name from within the community and imbued with the

Spirit to speak the truth of Jesus Christ

The call to be heralds and prophets of the kingdom of

God is one that is shared by virtue of our common bapsmrdquo

he said during the liturgy at St John the Evangelist Church

ldquoToday as in the past our community needs to hear that

message of truth loud and clearrdquo he said ldquoThat is the

work that you all do so well Through the various means of

communicaons we join in the prophec act of speaking to

the truth of Christrsquos salvific mission to all men and womenrdquo

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

A F Nazareth Goa

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

6 THE EXAMINER JULY 07 2012

T

here is no doubt that the faith formaon in our

Archdiocese is of a high-quality and responds to

the needs of the children youth and adults right

through the year But the queson is Are the

results achieved consonant with the eff orts put in Even

though the community is very posive and supporve of

faith formaon and recognizes the tremendous work that is

being done perhaps there is a gnawing feeling deep within

that something is missing We wonder for instance why

teenagers even aer a rigorous Confirmaon programme

are so tepid about the Church and their faith Where are all

the youth and young adults in their twenes and thires

We ask ourselves why do some families get involved in

Church and religion only when they are celebrang a

milestone or a Sacrament We look at the parcipants in

our adult faith forma

on programmes and recognize thesame faces and we ask ourselves where are the rest It also

appears that the number of people coming to celebrate the

sacrament of reconciliaon regularly are on the decline

There is also the queson of the eff ecveness of our

outreach to those who have le the Church

One therefore begins to wonder if the present trends

connue what does the future hold for the Church How

can the Church eff ecvely respond to this scenario In

parcular what is the kind of faith formaon should she

engage in so that Catholics both love and live their faith

In this context the message of Pope Benedict XVI in his

apostolic leer `Porta Fidei ( October 11 2011) is pernent

He declares that ldquofaith formaon will be eff ected through athorough and an ongoing catechesis (based on Magisterial

teachings especially the Catechism of the Catholic Church)

heart and oriented to enable people to live and experience

a more Christ-centred life Furthermore such faith

The milieu that we live in poses many challenges to our

faith lives and so there is an urgent need of designing new

John Roberto in Faith FormaƟ on 2020 Designing the

Future of Faith FormaƟ on (published by Lifelong Faith

Associates and Vibrant Faith Ministries CT 2010) presents

four scenarios for envisioning the future of faith formaonAccordingly we have 1) People of vibrant faith and acve

engagement in the Church community 2) People who

parcipate occasionally but are not acvely engaged or

spiritually commied 3) People who are spiritual but not

religious and 4) People who are uninterested in spiritual

life and unaffiliated with religion He goes on to state that

`while no one can definively map the future of Chrisan

faith formaon there are tools that congregaons can

use to interpret their current reality and thus envision the

future Scenario planning is one of those toolsrsquo And so it is

to provide aith ormation and engageto provide aith ormation and engage

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

praccesmdashinto the daily lives of peopleWhile many of these proposals are already implemented

in one way or another perhaps what is needed is a greater

opmizaon of as well as markeng of the resources

available We conclude with the srring invitaon of

our Holy Father who in `Porta Fideirsquo declares ldquoMay

we rediscover the content of the faith that we profess

celebrate it and live itrdquo (No 9)

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

Faith is the first and most necessary

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

to leave our past and our securies

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

started schools and used educaon to empower people

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Unforgettable

Memories

Juliet08071988 ndash 08072012

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

T

here is no doubt that the faith formaon in our

Archdiocese is of a high-quality and responds to

the needs of the children youth and adults right

through the year But the queson is Are the

results achieved consonant with the eff orts put in Even

though the community is very posive and supporve of

faith formaon and recognizes the tremendous work that is

being done perhaps there is a gnawing feeling deep within

that something is missing We wonder for instance why

teenagers even aer a rigorous Confirmaon programme

are so tepid about the Church and their faith Where are all

the youth and young adults in their twenes and thires

We ask ourselves why do some families get involved in

Church and religion only when they are celebrang a

milestone or a Sacrament We look at the parcipants in

our adult faith forma

on programmes and recognize thesame faces and we ask ourselves where are the rest It also

appears that the number of people coming to celebrate the

sacrament of reconciliaon regularly are on the decline

There is also the queson of the eff ecveness of our

outreach to those who have le the Church

One therefore begins to wonder if the present trends

connue what does the future hold for the Church How

can the Church eff ecvely respond to this scenario In

parcular what is the kind of faith formaon should she

engage in so that Catholics both love and live their faith

In this context the message of Pope Benedict XVI in his

apostolic leer `Porta Fidei ( October 11 2011) is pernent

He declares that ldquofaith formaon will be eff ected through athorough and an ongoing catechesis (based on Magisterial

teachings especially the Catechism of the Catholic Church)

and which aims to deepen peoplersquos contact with Jesus

Christ via contemporary educaonal and enrichment

opportunies designed to touch the intellect as well as the

heart and oriented to enable people to live and experience

a more Christ-centred life Furthermore such faith

formaon programmes which also imply a constant process

of ongoing conversion will find their fulfillment in a joyful

and commied witnessing of our Catholic faith which has

made such a vital diff erence to our livesrdquo

The milieu that we live in poses many challenges to our

faith lives and so there is an urgent need of designing new

iniaves to provide vibrant faith formaon for all ages if we

are to flourish as vibrant witnesses of Christ today

John Roberto in Faith FormaƟ on 2020 Designing the

Future of Faith FormaƟ on (published by Lifelong Faith

Associates and Vibrant Faith Ministries CT 2010) presents

four scenarios for envisioning the future of faith formaonAccordingly we have 1) People of vibrant faith and acve

engagement in the Church community 2) People who

parcipate occasionally but are not acvely engaged or

spiritually commied 3) People who are spiritual but not

religious and 4) People who are uninterested in spiritual

life and unaffiliated with religion He goes on to state that

`while no one can definively map the future of Chrisan

faith formaon there are tools that congregaons can

use to interpret their current reality and thus envision the

future Scenario planning is one of those toolsrsquo And so it is

Fai t h For mat i on

Today and Tomorrow

digital media and web technologiesdigital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potentialwhich possess tremendous potential

to provide aith ormation and engageto provide aith ormation and engage

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

praccesmdashinto the daily lives of peopleWhile many of these proposals are already implemented

in one way or another perhaps what is needed is a greater

opmizaon of as well as markeng of the resources

available We conclude with the srring invitaon of

our Holy Father who in `Porta Fideirsquo declares ldquoMay

we rediscover the content of the faith that we profess

celebrate it and live itrdquo (No 9)

virtues The object of all the threevirtues The object of all the three

theological virtues is God Himselftheological virtues is God Himselfbut if we have no Faith webut if we have no Faith we

aith opens for us a completely

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

virtues is God Himself but if we

have no Faith we cannot have Hope

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Our journey of Faith like in

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

The Trial and

the Victory of Faith

DOM DESADOM DESA

If we want to live a life of faith weIf we want to live a life of faith we

must make room for trials disciplinemust make room for trials discipline

patience courage of faith and oftenpatience courage of faith and often

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

is very firm when he says that he could

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

AsiaNews

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

George President of the Global Council of Indian Chrisans

(GCIC) denounced the increase in violence against the

Chrisans of Tamil Nadu Three of the five aacks occurred

The tensions erupted on June 21 when a mob of Hindu

extremists from the Bharatiya Janatha Party (BJP) and

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) went to Vanagiri

Menavar and ordered the Hindu populaon to boyco the

Chrisans prevenng them from praying and going to Mass

The extremists had already visited the village in May with

the same demands To avoid clashes the local authories

on June 23 organized a meeng of reconciliaon between

the two communities The meeting also involved Thiru

KA Jayapal Minister of Fisheries who however failed to

convince the extremists to leave the village In the evening

the Hindus aacked Chrisan homes with swords and scksburnt and plundered four buildings forcing the populaon

to flee 15 people were injured in the clash including two in

crical condion Aer the assault the remaining families

in the village contacted the police staon of Poompuhar

which however refused to co-operate forcing Chrisans

to go to the authorities of the district of Nagapattinam

These authories allowed them to file a complaint but did

not initiate an investigation leaving the perpetrators of

the act unpunished

On June 24 Mahalingam one of the wounded Chrisans

was found dead in the hospital in unclear circumstances

According to his son Rajendran who was also hospitalizedthe man was in bed and in stable condion and would have

been killed by extremists The news triggered panic and the

few families sll living in Vanagiri Menavar fled and are sll

camped out a few kilometers from the village

The document describes the current situaon of priestly

falling birth-rates and a fall in religious pracces have led

to a decline in vocaons and an increasingly elderly pool of

the requirements of the new evangelizaon are shaping a

new situaon for the Churchrdquo the document states

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

T

here is no doubt that the faith formaon in our

Archdiocese is of a high-quality and responds to

the needs of the children youth and adults right

through the year But the queson is Are the

results achieved consonant with the eff orts put in Even

though the community is very posive and supporve of

faith formaon and recognizes the tremendous work that is

being done perhaps there is a gnawing feeling deep within

that something is missing We wonder for instance why

teenagers even aer a rigorous Confirmaon programme

are so tepid about the Church and their faith Where are all

the youth and young adults in their twenes and thires

We ask ourselves why do some families get involved in

Church and religion only when they are celebrang a

milestone or a Sacrament We look at the parcipants in

our adult faith forma

on programmes and recognize thesame faces and we ask ourselves where are the rest It also

appears that the number of people coming to celebrate the

sacrament of reconciliaon regularly are on the decline

There is also the queson of the eff ecveness of our

outreach to those who have le the Church

One therefore begins to wonder if the present trends

connue what does the future hold for the Church How

can the Church eff ecvely respond to this scenario In

parcular what is the kind of faith formaon should she

engage in so that Catholics both love and live their faith

In this context the message of Pope Benedict XVI in his

apostolic leer `Porta Fidei ( October 11 2011) is pernent

He declares that ldquofaith formaon will be eff ected through athorough and an ongoing catechesis (based on Magisterial

teachings especially the Catechism of the Catholic Church)

and which aims to deepen peoplersquos contact with Jesus

Christ via contemporary educaonal and enrichment

opportunies designed to touch the intellect as well as the

heart and oriented to enable people to live and experience

a more Christ-centred life Furthermore such faith

formaon programmes which also imply a constant process

of ongoing conversion will find their fulfillment in a joyful

and commied witnessing of our Catholic faith which has

made such a vital diff erence to our livesrdquo

The milieu that we live in poses many challenges to our

faith lives and so there is an urgent need of designing new

iniaves to provide vibrant faith formaon for all ages if we

are to flourish as vibrant witnesses of Christ today

John Roberto in Faith FormaƟ on 2020 Designing the

Future of Faith FormaƟ on (published by Lifelong Faith

Associates and Vibrant Faith Ministries CT 2010) presents

four scenarios for envisioning the future of faith formaonAccordingly we have 1) People of vibrant faith and acve

engagement in the Church community 2) People who

parcipate occasionally but are not acvely engaged or

spiritually commied 3) People who are spiritual but not

religious and 4) People who are uninterested in spiritual

life and unaffiliated with religion He goes on to state that

`while no one can definively map the future of Chrisan

faith formaon there are tools that congregaons can

use to interpret their current reality and thus envision the

future Scenario planning is one of those toolsrsquo And so it is

Fai t h For mat i on

Today and Tomorrow

which possess tremendous potentialwhich possess tremendous potential

to provide aith ormation and engageto provide aith ormation and engage

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

praccesmdashinto the daily lives of peopleWhile many of these proposals are already implemented

in one way or another perhaps what is needed is a greater

opmizaon of as well as markeng of the resources

available We conclude with the srring invitaon of

our Holy Father who in `Porta Fideirsquo declares ldquoMay

we rediscover the content of the faith that we profess

celebrate it and live itrdquo (No 9)

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

Enabling young people to live as disciples through their

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

UNESCO adds Church of Nativity to the list of heritage sites in dangerUNESCO has placed sites -- including the Church of the

Nativity -- in Bethlehem West Bank on its list of World

Heritage in Danger In a 13-6 vote with two abstenons the

World Heritage Commiee added the sites to the danger

list during a meeting in St Petersburg In its application

Palestine which became a full UNESCO member last

October -- said the church had not had upkeep and repairs

since 1967 when Israel began occupaon of the West Bank

and because of Israeli restricons on movement in and outof the territory

Inscribing a site on the List of World Heritage in

Danger allows the World Heritage Commiee to allocate

immediate assistance from the World Heritage Fund to

the endangered property It also alerts the internaonal

community to situations in the hope that it can join

eff orts to save these endangered sites The United States

and Israel -- who were not committee members -- had

opposed the move Last fall the custodian of the Holy

Land Franciscan Fr Pierbasta Pizzaballa told the Italian

bishopsrsquo news agency SIR that the Franciscans were

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

(the church) because under UNESCO rules the board

in charge of running a place for the UN agency is the

government not the owner of a siterdquo

Bishop tells communicators

ldquothey serve Church asfaithful prophetsrdquoCatholic communicators who are filled with faith can serve

as prophets by their commitment to spread the good

news of Christ to the world Bishop Christopher J Coyne

apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis

told Catholic Media Conference participants Explaining

that prophets speak ldquothe truth of thingsrdquo Bishop Coyne

reminded the journalists and communicators during his

homily at the opening Mass that the faithful are ldquocalled by

name from within the community and imbued with the

Spirit to speak the truth of Jesus Christ

The call to be heralds and prophets of the kingdom of

God is one that is shared by virtue of our common bapsmrdquo

he said during the liturgy at St John the Evangelist Church

ldquoToday as in the past our community needs to hear that

message of truth loud and clearrdquo he said ldquoThat is the

work that you all do so well Through the various means of

communicaons we join in the prophec act of speaking to

the truth of Christrsquos salvific mission to all men and womenrdquo

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

A F Nazareth Goa

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

6 THE EXAMINER JULY 07 2012

T

here is no doubt that the faith formaon in our

Archdiocese is of a high-quality and responds to

the needs of the children youth and adults right

through the year But the queson is Are the

results achieved consonant with the eff orts put in Even

though the community is very posive and supporve of

faith formaon and recognizes the tremendous work that is

being done perhaps there is a gnawing feeling deep within

that something is missing We wonder for instance why

teenagers even aer a rigorous Confirmaon programme

are so tepid about the Church and their faith Where are all

the youth and young adults in their twenes and thires

We ask ourselves why do some families get involved in

Church and religion only when they are celebrang a

milestone or a Sacrament We look at the parcipants in

our adult faith forma

on programmes and recognize thesame faces and we ask ourselves where are the rest It also

appears that the number of people coming to celebrate the

sacrament of reconciliaon regularly are on the decline

There is also the queson of the eff ecveness of our

outreach to those who have le the Church

One therefore begins to wonder if the present trends

connue what does the future hold for the Church How

can the Church eff ecvely respond to this scenario In

parcular what is the kind of faith formaon should she

engage in so that Catholics both love and live their faith

In this context the message of Pope Benedict XVI in his

apostolic leer `Porta Fidei ( October 11 2011) is pernent

He declares that ldquofaith formaon will be eff ected through athorough and an ongoing catechesis (based on Magisterial

teachings especially the Catechism of the Catholic Church)

and which aims to deepen peoplersquos contact with Jesus

Christ via contemporary educaonal and enrichment

opportunies designed to touch the intellect as well as the

heart and oriented to enable people to live and experience

a more Christ-centred life Furthermore such faith

formaon programmes which also imply a constant process

of ongoing conversion will find their fulfillment in a joyful

and commied witnessing of our Catholic faith which has

made such a vital diff erence to our livesrdquo

The milieu that we live in poses many challenges to our

faith lives and so there is an urgent need of designing new

iniaves to provide vibrant faith formaon for all ages if we

are to flourish as vibrant witnesses of Christ today

John Roberto in Faith FormaƟ on 2020 Designing the

Future of Faith FormaƟ on (published by Lifelong Faith

Associates and Vibrant Faith Ministries CT 2010) presents

four scenarios for envisioning the future of faith formaonAccordingly we have 1) People of vibrant faith and acve

engagement in the Church community 2) People who

parcipate occasionally but are not acvely engaged or

spiritually commied 3) People who are spiritual but not

religious and 4) People who are uninterested in spiritual

life and unaffiliated with religion He goes on to state that

`while no one can definively map the future of Chrisan

faith formaon there are tools that congregaons can

use to interpret their current reality and thus envision the

future Scenario planning is one of those toolsrsquo And so it is

Fai t h For mat i on

Today and Tomorrow

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

praccesmdashinto the daily lives of peopleWhile many of these proposals are already implemented

in one way or another perhaps what is needed is a greater

opmizaon of as well as markeng of the resources

available We conclude with the srring invitaon of

our Holy Father who in `Porta Fideirsquo declares ldquoMay

we rediscover the content of the faith that we profess

celebrate it and live itrdquo (No 9)

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

of the three theological virtues Theobject of all the three theological

virtues is God Himself but if we

have no Faith we cannot have Hope

and Charity

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Our journey of Faith like in

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

patience courage of faith and oftenpatience courage of faith and often

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

In India where Chrisans are a minority of just 23 per

cent (and Catholics are only 18 per cent) the teachings

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

T

here is no doubt that the faith formaon in our

Archdiocese is of a high-quality and responds to

the needs of the children youth and adults right

through the year But the queson is Are the

results achieved consonant with the eff orts put in Even

though the community is very posive and supporve of

faith formaon and recognizes the tremendous work that is

being done perhaps there is a gnawing feeling deep within

that something is missing We wonder for instance why

teenagers even aer a rigorous Confirmaon programme

are so tepid about the Church and their faith Where are all

the youth and young adults in their twenes and thires

We ask ourselves why do some families get involved in

Church and religion only when they are celebrang a

milestone or a Sacrament We look at the parcipants in

our adult faith forma

on programmes and recognize thesame faces and we ask ourselves where are the rest It also

appears that the number of people coming to celebrate the

sacrament of reconciliaon regularly are on the decline

There is also the queson of the eff ecveness of our

outreach to those who have le the Church

One therefore begins to wonder if the present trends

connue what does the future hold for the Church How

can the Church eff ecvely respond to this scenario In

parcular what is the kind of faith formaon should she

engage in so that Catholics both love and live their faith

In this context the message of Pope Benedict XVI in his

apostolic leer `Porta Fidei ( October 11 2011) is pernent

He declares that ldquofaith formaon will be eff ected through athorough and an ongoing catechesis (based on Magisterial

teachings especially the Catechism of the Catholic Church)

and which aims to deepen peoplersquos contact with Jesus

Christ via contemporary educaonal and enrichment

opportunies designed to touch the intellect as well as the

heart and oriented to enable people to live and experience

a more Christ-centred life Furthermore such faith

formaon programmes which also imply a constant process

of ongoing conversion will find their fulfillment in a joyful

and commied witnessing of our Catholic faith which has

made such a vital diff erence to our livesrdquo

The milieu that we live in poses many challenges to our

faith lives and so there is an urgent need of designing new

iniaves to provide vibrant faith formaon for all ages if we

are to flourish as vibrant witnesses of Christ today

John Roberto in Faith FormaƟ on 2020 Designing the

Future of Faith FormaƟ on (published by Lifelong Faith

Associates and Vibrant Faith Ministries CT 2010) presents

four scenarios for envisioning the future of faith formaonAccordingly we have 1) People of vibrant faith and acve

engagement in the Church community 2) People who

parcipate occasionally but are not acvely engaged or

spiritually commied 3) People who are spiritual but not

religious and 4) People who are uninterested in spiritual

life and unaffiliated with religion He goes on to state that

`while no one can definively map the future of Chrisan

faith formaon there are tools that congregaons can

use to interpret their current reality and thus envision the

future Scenario planning is one of those toolsrsquo And so it is

Fai t h For mat i on

Today and Tomorrow

digital media and web technologiesdigital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potentialwhich possess tremendous potential

to provide aith ormation and engageto provide aith ormation and engage

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

praccesmdashinto the daily lives of peopleWhile many of these proposals are already implemented

in one way or another perhaps what is needed is a greater

opmizaon of as well as markeng of the resources

available We conclude with the srring invitaon of

our Holy Father who in `Porta Fideirsquo declares ldquoMay

we rediscover the content of the faith that we profess

celebrate it and live itrdquo (No 9)

aith opens for us a completely

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

of the three theological virtues Theobject of all the three theological

virtues is God Himself but if we

have no Faith we cannot have Hope

and Charity

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Our journey of Faith like in

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Godrsquos call when they are presented with a strong example of

Chrisan life in the home or wider community Moreover

young men oen feel encouraged to consider a vocaon

as a result of the ldquojoyful witness of the priestsrdquo they have

encountered in their lives

ldquoThe most favourable environment for vocaons to the

priesthood is every Chrisan community that listens to theWord of God prays with the liturgy and gives witness with

perceived and recognizedrdquo the document concludes

Bishops Anger hatred afterbombings is at dangerous level

Nigeriarsquos Catholic Bishops expressed concern that angerand hatred are growing among Christian and Muslim

communies and have reached a dangerous level following

a spate of church bombings believed to be carried out by a

fundamentalist Islamic sect ldquoThese are sad days for Nigeria

and for all Nigeriansrdquo the Bishops said in a statement

released in Abuja ldquoWe feel greatly pained by the violent

events which have become almost daily occurrencesrdquo

The statement signed by Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama

of Jos President of the Catholic Bishopsrsquo Conference

of Nigeria and Archbishop Alfred Adewale Martins of

Lagos lamented the lack of security for Chrisans despite

mounng aacks Calling upon all Nigerians to defuse the

rising tensions the bishops also urged the government

to step up its acons to protect all people from violence

The bishops also condemned reprisal attacks on Muslim

communies The most recent incidents occurred June 17

when 45 people were reported killed aer four churches in

Zaria and Kaduna were bombed

UNESCO adds Church of Nativity to the list of heritage sites in dangerUNESCO has placed sites -- including the Church of the

Nativity -- in Bethlehem West Bank on its list of World

Heritage in Danger In a 13-6 vote with two abstenons the

World Heritage Commiee added the sites to the danger

list during a meeting in St Petersburg In its application

Palestine which became a full UNESCO member last

October -- said the church had not had upkeep and repairs

since 1967 when Israel began occupaon of the West Bank

and because of Israeli restricons on movement in and outof the territory

Inscribing a site on the List of World Heritage in

Danger allows the World Heritage Commiee to allocate

immediate assistance from the World Heritage Fund to

the endangered property It also alerts the internaonal

community to situations in the hope that it can join

eff orts to save these endangered sites The United States

and Israel -- who were not committee members -- had

opposed the move Last fall the custodian of the Holy

Land Franciscan Fr Pierbasta Pizzaballa told the Italian

bishopsrsquo news agency SIR that the Franciscans were

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

(the church) because under UNESCO rules the board

in charge of running a place for the UN agency is the

government not the owner of a siterdquo

Bishop tells communicators

ldquothey serve Church asfaithful prophetsrdquoCatholic communicators who are filled with faith can serve

as prophets by their commitment to spread the good

news of Christ to the world Bishop Christopher J Coyne

apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis

told Catholic Media Conference participants Explaining

that prophets speak ldquothe truth of thingsrdquo Bishop Coyne

reminded the journalists and communicators during his

homily at the opening Mass that the faithful are ldquocalled by

Spirit to speak the truth of Jesus Christ

The call to be heralds and prophets of the kingdom of

God is one that is shared by virtue of our common bapsmrdquo

he said during the liturgy at St John the Evangelist Church

ldquoToday as in the past our community needs to hear that

message of truth loud and clearrdquo he said ldquoThat is the

work that you all do so well Through the various means of

communicaons we join in the prophec act of speaking to

the truth of Christrsquos salvific mission to all men and womenrdquo

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Today we can proftably use the Today we can proftably use the

digital media and web technologiesdigital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potentialwhich possess tremendous potential

to provide aith ormation and engageto provide aith ormation and engage

people in a lie-long aith growthpeople in a lie-long aith growth

while keeping each of these scenarios in mind that Church

leaders and catechists seek to envision and design the

future of faith formaon in their congregaons

Consequently in the first scenario for a `community that

possesses a vibrant faith and an acve engagementrsquo one

may suggest connuous faith formaon for all ages and

generaons especially for adults ie a faith formaon that

engages people - body mind heart and spirit - in diverseways to grow in faith right through their lives In this seng

one may also strive to equip parents and families to become

centres of faith formaon and pracce

Furthermore the digital media and web technologies

which possess tremendous potenal to provide faith

formaon and engage people in a lifelong faith growth

can also be profitably used Finally we should also seek to

empower people who are knowledgeable about the faith

and possess faith-sharing skills to share their faith with

those who are not involved in the Church community or are

not spiritually commied

The second scenario would consist of persons who are

`spiritual but not religiousrsquo ie persons who are generally

not affiliated with organized religion and the Church In

fact we may find in this category some who may have

even joined a non-denominaonal Chrisan church which

is focused on their spiritual needs while others may be

searching for an outlet for their spiritual hunger in small

communies of like-minded spiritual seekers whereas some

may be part of an organizaon engaged in local or global

acts of service or even off ering online spiritual resources

In these circumstances perhaps me and resources can

be invested to develop faith formaon around life situaons

and spiritual needs Also faith formaon programmes

can be off

ered for spiritual seekers that are conductedin ldquothird placerdquo sengs outside of the Church facilies

Furthermore an aempt can be made to re-engage the

so-called `Spiritual but not Religiousrsquo in Church life through

faith formaon programmes which are developed around

marriage and bapsm And finally a guided programme for

spiritually hungry people can be provided to enable them to

invesgate the Catholic faith with the help of other seekers

in small communies (eg the Alpha course)

In the case of those persons who are `unaffiliated and

uninterestedrsquo and are part of the third scenario we find

persons who experience lile need for God and spiritual life

and are also not affiliated with organized religion and the

Church In this group which consists of a steadily increasing

percentage of young adults one senses also a kind of

distancing of all forms of organized religion

One concrete way of responding to this category of

persons is to establish a ldquothird placerdquo gathering site as

a pla orm through a variety of spiritual andor cultural

programmes Also a ldquoweb-presencerdquo that is inving and

aracve which off ers the possibility of invesgang

and experiencing the Catholic faith online is also another

significant need Furthermore service projects and mission

trips that also off er the possibility of persons from diff erent

backgrounds can make for parcipaon healthy interacon

and contact with the Catholic faith in acon

In the fourth scenario we have persons who `parcipate in

Church programmes but lack commitment to the Churchrsquo

These persons possess a low spiritual commitment and

their connecon to the Church is more social and ulitarian

than spiritualOne fundamental way to respond to this group of persons

is developing `Pathwaysrsquo for a spiritual commitment and

more acve engagement through a formaon process

and programmes that would help them develop and

deepen a personal relaonship with Jesus Christ explore

the foundaonal teachings of the Chrisan faith and

live fundamental Chrisan pracces Faith formaon

programmes can also be organized on the occasion of

the birth and bapsm of children and this can be used

as a means to strengthen family es as well Finally the

digital media and web technologies can also be used to

extend faith formaonmdashresources social networking faith

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

of the three theological virtues Theobject of all the three theological

virtues is God Himself but if we

have no Faith we cannot have Hope

and Charity

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Our journey of Faith like in

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

patience courage of faith and oftenpatience courage of faith and often

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

God delays in answering our prayersGod delays in answering our prayers

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

maers in the endrdquo

In India where Chrisans are a minority of just 23 per

AsiaNews

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

not initiate an investigation leaving the perpetrators of

the act unpunished

On June 24 Mahalingam one of the wounded Chrisans

was found dead in the hospital in unclear circumstances

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

necessary of the three theologicalnecessary of the three theological

virtues The object of all the threevirtues The object of all the three

theological virtues is God Himselftheological virtues is God Himselfbut if we have no Faith webut if we have no Faith we

aith opens for us a completely

new world not a world of

fantasy but a real world and

introduces us to the wonders

of a universe of which froners are

infinitely wider than the narrow

confines of our visible universe

Some people would have us believe

that Faith leads us to some empty

space where we build castles in the air

something which is not based on solid

reality How wrong they are Faith is a

gi we received from our Lord Jesus

Christ the day we were bapzed Yet

it is not a stac gi it is a journey

the journey which all of us have to

undertake if we want to reach our

final desnaon

Faith is the first and most necessary

of the three theological virtues Theobject of all the three theological

virtues is God Himself but if we

have no Faith we cannot have Hope

and Charity

The winter of unbelief

For a Chrisan the experience of

unbelief in todayrsquos world is a chilling

experience Atheism the lack of faith

in God is not an isolated phenomenon

In the West it is a widespread reality

It is an open profession of unbelief an

aggressive atheism which ridicules anybelief that goes beyond the narrow

limits of scienfic observaon and

experiment Biologist Richard Dawkins

has wrien a number of books in which

he boldly aacks and ridicules belief

in God Theorecal physicist Stephen

Hawking stated recently that heaven

is a fairy tale The greater the progress

and the claims of science the more

faith in God and in a transcendent

reality is debased and ridiculed

Influenced at least parally by

this perverse propaganda Chrisans

are leaving the Church in droves and

opng for praccal agnoscism They

may not directly aack faith in God

and in the supernatural but they ldquojust

couldnrsquot care lessrdquo

This arcle is not meant to be an

apology for our Chrisan faith but it

is good to know that in this apparent

opposion between Science and

Religion we are on the side of a great

array of Chrisan sciensts The great

majority of sciensts are firm believers

in God and in the supernatural

Warner Von Brown the father of rocketry and astronaucs and pioneer

of space conquest had this to say

ldquoLile by lile I came to realize that

for my prayer to be authenc I had to

project myself into a new dimension I

began to pray every day every hourrdquo

The new dimension of which Von

Brown speaks is faith in God

The Astronaut Col James B Brown

who walked on the moon writes

reflecng on his landing on the

satellite what we could call ldquoA prayer

on the moonrdquo ldquoRunning throughmy reflecons like the refrain of

an old hymn were the words from

my favourite biblical passage from

the Psalms lsquoI will li up mine eyes

under the hills from where cometh

my help My help cometh from the

Lordrsquohellip I have encountered nothing on

Apollo-15 or in this age of space and

science that dilutes my faith in God

When I was on the moon in fact I felt

a sense of inspiraon a feeling that

someone was with me and watching

over me protecng merdquo

P Chilalo has collected a long list

of eminent sciensts Nobel Prize

winners many of them which includes

giants like noted astronomer Kepler

(1571-1630) Newton (1643-1727) the

founder of classical physical theory

evoluonist Darwin (1809-1882)

Thomas Edison (1847-1931) the most

prodigious inventor Albert Einstein

(1879-1955) the proponent of the

relavity theory Max Plank (1858-

1947) the founder of Quantum Physics

and many others who were all fervent

believers in God

What does the Bible tell us of faith

In the Le

er to the Hebrews (11 1-8)we find a whole trease on Faith it

defines faith and tells us who were the

great Patriarchs of the Old Testament

who taught us to believe in God ldquoNow

faith is the assurance of things hoped

for the convicon of things not seen

Indeed by faith our ancestors received

approval By faith we understand that

the worlds were prepared by the Word

of God so that what is seen was made

from things that are not visiblerdquo

Hebrews menons the great

Patriarchs that lived by faith and le us strong tesmonies of their journey

of faith from Abel to Noah and on to

Enoch and to the father of the faithful

Abraham and tells us that ldquowithout

faith it is impossible to please God For

whoever would approach Him must

believe that He exists and that He

rewards those who seek Himrdquo

Our journey of Faith like in

Abrahamrsquos case means that we have

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

The Trial and

the Victory of Faith

DOM DESADOM DESA

If we want to live a life of faith weIf we want to live a life of faith we

must make room for trials disciplinemust make room for trials discipline

patience courage of faith and oftenpatience courage of faith and often

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

God delays in answering our prayersGod delays in answering our prayers

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

Enabling young people to live as disciples through their

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Memories

Juliet08071988 ndash 08072012

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

-- Astronaut Col James B Brown

to leave our past and our securies

behind and launch into the future into

the unknown In our journey of faith

we have a guiding star our Lord Jesus

Christ He is our travelling companion

in fact He is the Way himself Our

faith journey started the day we were

bapzed and will end with our birthin heaven

Jesus our Teacher of Faith

Our Lord Jesus Christ is our best

instructor He the Incarnate Word is

the object of our faith Whenever Jesus

worked a miracle He demanded faith

Jesus aributes oen the miraculous

healing to the faith of the sick person

St Mahew shows us several miracles

of healing aributed by Jesus to the

faith of the imploring sick people who

were cured due to their faith in Him In

Mahew 9 2-8 He cures a paralyc

ldquoPeople were carrying a paralyzed man

lying on a bed When Jesus saw their

faith he said to the paralyc lsquoTake

heart son your sins are forgivenhellipStand

up take your bed and go homersquo And he

stood up and went homerdquo In 922 when

Jesus healed a woman suff ering from a

flow of blood he said ldquo lsquoTake heart my

daughter your faith has made you wellrsquo

And instantly the woman was made

wellrdquo In 9 29 ldquotwo blind men followedHim crying loudly lsquo Have mercy on us

Son of David Jesus said to them lsquoDo

you believe that I am able to do thisrsquo

They said to Him lsquoYes Lordrsquo Then He

touched their eyes and said rsquoAccording

to your faith let it be done to yoursquo And

their eyes were openedrdquo Jesus assures

us that our faith will move mountains

and that ldquowhatever you ask for in prayer

with faith you will receiverdquo

The meaning of true faith

Faith is not just an assent of our mind

it is not just an intellectual act it is

not a queson of accepng a truth

a dogma it is a queson of believing

a person of trusng a person even

more of giving oneself to a person the

Lord Jesus ChristEvangelist Billy Graham came some

years ago to Kolkata for one of his

missions He spoke fervently about

faith in Jesus and to make people

understand the meaning of faith he

told them how a famous ghtrope

walker had come to a city close to the

Niagara Falls and announced that he

was ready to walk on a ghtrope from

one bank of the river Niagara to the

other a feat that so far nobody had

dared to aempt People were rather

skepcal But he insisted that he could

do it that the authories gave him a

chance They laid a long rope from one

side of the river to the other

If the ghtrope walker fell from the

rope he would instantly be swept away

by the strong current to the abyss

several hundred feet below There

were crowds on both sides of the

river He discarded the long pole that

funambulists usually employ to keep

their balance and slowly but with sure

steps he crossed to the other sideHe was received with a thunderous

ovaon He said that he could do beer

than that He asked that a wheelbarrow

be brought loaded with bricks or

sand or any other material He did the

reverse trip holding the wheelbarrow

with his hands and reached the other

side The roaring crowd welcomed him

Then he addressed them ldquoGentlemen

do you think I could carry in this

wheelbarrow anyone of you to the

other siderdquo There was silence but a

man from the crowd answered ldquoSure

you could do itrdquo Then the funambulist

told him lsquofine gentleman come I

shall take you to the other side in this

wheelbarrowrdquo The man shouted backldquoOh no not Irdquo

That gentleman had intellectual faith

but he had no heart to commit himself

to the funambulist That is how some of

us pracse our faith we believe with our

mind but not with our heart we donrsquot

dare to commit ourselves to Christ

Pope Benedict XVI referred to

this type of faith when he spoke to

the German Parliament in Berlin on

September 22 2011 during the pastoral

visit to his home country Quong from

the First Book of Kings he menoned

how God invited King Solomon to ask

for anything he judged important to

rule his people like success wealth

long life the destrucon of his

enemies etc

The young king did not choose any

of these He rather asked for a listening

heart (1 Kings 39) God praised him

for his wise choice That is true faith a

listening heart a maer not so much

of the intellect but of the heart We

believe with our heartThis is real faith the faith that Lord

Jesus expects of us true commitment

to Him even to the death This is the

faith that moved Abraham when he le

his house and acquaintances for a place

and a future of which he knew nothing

He fully trusted in God This is the faith

that can make us saints This is the faith

that works miracles

In our peonary prayer of faith we

may not see the results immediately or

the way we expected We must leave the

result to God who knows what is best forus The Lord may like to teach us a lesson

in humility or in paent expectaon The

result may be oen surprising

The Trial and

the Victory of Faith

DOM DESADOM DESA

If we want to live a life of faith weIf we want to live a life of faith we

must make room for trials disciplinemust make room for trials discipline

patience courage of faith and oftenpatience courage of faith and often

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

God delays in answering our prayersGod delays in answering our prayers

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

Enabling young people to live as disciples through their

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

today in terms of management - financial administrave

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Suggestion Municipalbirth certificateSir Recently I had gone to the BMC for geng my childrenrsquos Birth

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

The Trial and

the Victory of Faith

DOM DESADOM DESA

If we want to live a life of faith weIf we want to live a life of faith we

must make room for trials disciplinemust make room for trials discipline

patience courage of faith and oftenpatience courage of faith and often

we may pass through many phaseswe may pass through many phases

before we truly realize the end -before we truly realize the end -the victory of faiththe victory of faith

etween the first and

the last the Chrisan

must go through a

series of trials and

tesng before he emerges

victorious Only then can the

promise in Scripture become

a reality for Him ldquoAll thingsare possible to him that

believethrdquo (Mark 923) The

ldquoall thingsrdquo do not come

easily and we come to learn

that faith and belief are like

two sides of the same coin

God is ever seeking to

teach us the way of faith

And that way is via an

intensive training in the faith

life that comprises a series

of trials and tesng In other

words if we want to live a

life of faith we must make

room for trials discipline

paence courage of faith

and oen we may pass

through many phases before

we truly realize the end ndash

the victory of faith

Going through the

disciplining of faith will

ensure that ours is a faith

that has a real moral fibre

One that wonrsquot get wreckedeasily on the many storms

that will accost us during our

voyage And one storm that

we all face is You have made

your request to God but

the answer is sll elusive

What does one do in such

a situaon

Hang in there

Hang on to your faith

because faith is the only

means whereby you canobtain blessings Which

implies that prayer alone

cannot draw down answers

from Godrsquos throne ndash unless it

is the earnest prayer of the

man who believes In other

words faith is the telegraph

wire linking earth to heaven

and along this wire Godrsquos

messages of love and grace

flow down at such a brisk

pace that before we call He

answers hellip while we are sll

speaking He hears us But

if that telegraphic wire issnapped how can we obtain

the promise

So take faith away and

it is in vain that I call on

God There is no other

link between my soul and

heaven But faith is more

than just a link with God It

empowers me to defy the

hosts of hell ndash who gang up

to threaten and harass the

man of faith And to emerge

victorious over all their

aempts to knock down my

faith I must stand steadfast

in my belief on His Word

And herersquos further

assurance against the

enemyrsquos barbs from the

Master Himself ldquoI have

prayed that your own faith

may not failrdquo (Lk 22 32)

Thatrsquos because as someone

has put it Faith honours

God and God honours faith

Keep on believing

Godrsquos Word

If God has promised

something in His Word He

will never move from it So

the answer is you should

never be moved by what you

see or how you feel Stand

steadfast on His Word And

as you stand persevering

in your belief on His Word

your faith is being enlargedand made more powerful

And this experience will

be your strength even as

you look at the apparent

contradicon as to Godrsquos

Word and your being

unmoved from your posion

of faith This will make you

stronger and more equipped

to face whatever comes

It has been observed

that very oen God delays

in answering our prayers

and that delay is as much

an answer to our prayersas is the fulfilment when

it comes God worked in

the same way with all the

biblical characters who

were scheduled to glorify

His name Abraham Moses

Elijah and Gideon were not

great in the beginning but

were made great through

the disciplining of their faith

Only aer that were they

fit for the posion God had

designed for them in the

first place

Godrsquos Word will try you

We all know the story of

Joseph whom the Lord wastraining for the throne of

Egypt We read in the Psalms

that ldquothe Word of the Lord

tried himrdquo Yes there was

his life in prison with the

hard beds poor food and

him being incarcerated in all

innocence While the reality

of these situaons did make

his life difficult they were

It has been observed that very otenIt has been observed that very oten

God delays in answering our prayersGod delays in answering our prayers

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

12 THE EXAMINER JULY 07 2012

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

started schools and used educaon to empower people

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Cerficate I got the Birth Cerficate but the name of the child

is not menoned I enquired and they told me that records of

names which are more than 15 years old cannot be included In

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

Unforgettable

Memories

Juliet08071988 ndash 08072012

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

It has been observed that very otenIt has been observed that very oten

God delays in answering our prayersGod delays in answering our prayers

the delay is as much an answer tothe delay is as much an answer to

our prayer as is the ulilmentour prayer as is the ulilmentwhen it comeswhen it comes

only the circumstances not

the real trials It was Godrsquos

Word spoken to him in his

heart in those early years

concerning the elevaon and

honour he was to receive

well above his brothers who

would bow down before

his majesty

That was Godrsquos Word to

him but the reality was so

diff erent This contradicon

ndash between Godrsquos Word

to him and his plight in

prison ndash was his real trial

Almost every step of his

career made it seem more

and more impossible of

fulfillment He was innocent

yet imprisoned and while

the guilty were released hewas le to languish alone

Joseph was human And

just as we all feel at such

mes he too must have felt

frustrated disappointed let

down betrayed Yes even

those terrible moments of

loneliness and somemes

depression if not despair

These were the hours that

tried his soul they were

also the hours that resulted

in his spiritual growth and

development Because

these were the hours that

equipped him for when the

word came ndash the word of

his release

And yet more than the

joy of that moment it was

the fire that enkindled

in him the joy of his real

victory - his faith in Godrsquos

Word It found him fit for

the delicate task of dealing

with his wayward brethren

when he was in a posion

to revenge himself on themfor how they had treated

him Instead he dealt with

them with the love and

paence reminiscent of the

love and paence that the

Man of Sorrows showed

when in His extreme agony

on the Cross he made this

plea ldquoFather forgive them

for they know not what

they dordquo

The Lordrsquos disciplining

is hard

Yes it is hard Very hardAnd we are only human

that oen we cannot

take it We fall Again and

yet again Surely Joseph

also must have had those

moments of aloneness of

doubt and yes even fear

of the unknown But he

connued to cling to Godrsquos

Word ndash notwithstanding

the circumstances of

his surroundings Such

experiences are far beyond

the physical pain of

persecuon and torture

Because they try the soul

and the spirit

These are the moments

when God has spoken of

His purpose to do and yet

the days go on and on and

He does not do what He

has said He would or what

we have been praying for

so long and so earnestly

These mes are truly hard

but they are the mes whenwe experience the Lord

disciplining our faith so that

we will come through as

gold - as Job did aer the

trials God put him through

These are the mes through

which we will come into the

fullness of a knowledge of

God which would otherwise

have eluded us

Let us humbly come

before the Father and ask for

the gi of the seeing eyes of

faith especially during those

moments when the darkness

of doubts and despair engulf

our hopes and we are about

to sink into the depths of

fear of the unknown

12 THE EXAMINER JULY 07 2012

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

Enabling young people to live as disciples through their

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

Re fl ecti ons

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

AsiaNews

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

George President of the Global Council of Indian Chrisans

(GCIC) denounced the increase in violence against the

Chrisans of Tamil Nadu Three of the five aacks occurred

The tensions erupted on June 21 when a mob of Hindu

extremists from the Bharatiya Janatha Party (BJP) and

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) went to Vanagiri

Menavar and ordered the Hindu populaon to boyco the

Chrisans prevenng them from praying and going to Mass

The extremists had already visited the village in May with

the same demands To avoid clashes the local authories

on June 23 organized a meeng of reconciliaon between

the two communities The meeting also involved Thiru

KA Jayapal Minister of Fisheries who however failed to

convince the extremists to leave the village In the evening

the Hindus aacked Chrisan homes with swords and scksburnt and plundered four buildings forcing the populaon

to flee 15 people were injured in the clash including two in

crical condion Aer the assault the remaining families

in the village contacted the police staon of Poompuhar

which however refused to co-operate forcing Chrisans

to go to the authorities of the district of Nagapattinam

These authories allowed them to file a complaint but did

not initiate an investigation leaving the perpetrators of

the act unpunished

On June 24 Mahalingam one of the wounded Chrisans

was found dead in the hospital in unclear circumstances

According to his son Rajendran who was also hospitalizedthe man was in bed and in stable condion and would have

been killed by extremists The news triggered panic and the

few families sll living in Vanagiri Menavar fled and are sll

camped out a few kilometers from the village

The document describes the current situaon of priestly

falling birth-rates and a fall in religious pracces have led

to a decline in vocaons and an increasingly elderly pool of

priests to serve the Church

the number of priests the rising of their average age and

the requirements of the new evangelizaon are shaping a

new situaon for the Churchrdquo the document states

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

12 THE EXAMINER JULY 07 2012

ndia is a young naon with a very young populaon

latest demographic stascs of India show that by 2020

the average age of the Indian populaon will be 29 years

India is emerging from the shadows of under-development

to the centre stage of progress in many areas The young

generaon is beer placed to share and take advantage

of the exuberance and opmism brought about by the

economic vibrancy of the present day Ironically though it

is this image of vibrancy that highlights the contradictory

pictures of youth situaon Young people of India comprising

about 60 per cent of the enre regionrsquos populaon struggle

with basic quesons

First it is a queson of Identy They ask ldquoWho Am Irdquo

In the mul

-cultural mul

-religious environment they arein under the structures of family and community with the

many influences of the modern world they desire to discover

their authenc self What does it mean to be a Catholic in

these modern mes

Second it is a queson of Relaonship They ask ldquoTo

Whom Do I Belongrdquo Do I feel accepted and loved in my

family Is this the Church community that can nourish me

Am I accepted by my non-Chrisan neighbours

Third it is a queson of Purpose They ask ldquoWhat Am I

Here Forrdquo Teenage life is excing but when these years are

over then what What is my mission Was I created for a

definite purpose

Fourth it is a queson of Desny lsquoWhere Am I Goingrsquo What future lies ahead of me If my family cannot aff ord

to send me to college what will my future be What does

faith have to do with my life Is God really leading me

somewhere Or deeper yet lsquowhat can I look forward to

QuesƟ on of Meaning

Todayrsquos youth seek meaning in diff erent ways and through

diff erent avenues Contemporary culture tries to answer this

queson of meaning But do all of these truly fulfill youth

Are these aspiraons the only way for the youth Is there

another way a way that gives meaning to life and gives

it abundantly

As Catholics the youth know the answer is God whocreated them who loves them and who cares for them They

also know that Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the

Life There is much more to earthly existence than material

things and much more to the human person than just flesh

and bones Each youth has worth a meaning and a purpose

in life

ldquoWhat is needed today is a Church that knows how to

respond to the expectaons of young people Jesus wants

to enter into dialogue with them and through His body

the Church to propose the possibility of a choice which

will require a commitment of their lives As Jesus with

the disciples of Emmaus so the Church must become the

travelling companion to young peoplerdquo (John Paul II World

Youth Day 1995)

The Church must become the travelling companion to

our young people enhancing the quality of life of our

youth for a vibrant Church Coming to know Christ and

love Him and His Church in a mature and transforming

way is an ongoing and lifelong struggle for youth As

Catholics young people are called to a life of prayer and

service inspired by the teachings of the Church They are

called to encounter Jesus Christ in the Sacraments and

share His Love with others

The Ideal Youth

One may define the ideal Catholic youth as a balanced

individual possessing a highly spiritual life informed by

absolute moral values and whose behaviour demonstrates

qualies such as righteousness honesty humility and

conscienousness in everything heshe does To demonstrate

the qualies of life expected of youth in the modern world I

would like to present three goals for faith formaon

1 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

2 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about ConnecƟ on

3 Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Discipleship

The first goal of faith formaon is to empower young peopleto live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today Young

people are ldquosearching for a noble adventurerdquo a compelling

and challenging vision of life and a cause worth their

commitment They hunger to hear the Good News that finds

response in discipleship As their companion on this spiritual

journey some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil this

first goal of faith formaon are

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus through witness and

word to young people

Enabling young people to live as disciples through their

involvement in service leadership opportuniesetc

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

spent decades in close communion with the nature in one

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

maers in the endrdquo

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Heritage in Danger In a 13-6 vote with two abstenons the

World Heritage Commiee added the sites to the danger

list during a meeting in St Petersburg In its application

Palestine which became a full UNESCO member last

October -- said the church had not had upkeep and repairs

since 1967 when Israel began occupaon of the West Bank

and because of Israeli restricons on movement in and outof the territory

Inscribing a site on the List of World Heritage in

Danger allows the World Heritage Commiee to allocate

immediate assistance from the World Heritage Fund to

the endangered property It also alerts the internaonal

community to situations in the hope that it can join

eff orts to save these endangered sites The United States

and Israel -- who were not committee members -- had

opposed the move Last fall the custodian of the Holy

Land Franciscan Fr Pierbasta Pizzaballa told the Italian

bishopsrsquo news agency SIR that the Franciscans were

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

(the church) because under UNESCO rules the board

in charge of running a place for the UN agency is the

government not the owner of a siterdquo

Bishop tells communicators

ldquothey serve Church asfaithful prophetsrdquoCatholic communicators who are filled with faith can serve

as prophets by their commitment to spread the good

news of Christ to the world Bishop Christopher J Coyne

apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis

told Catholic Media Conference participants Explaining

that prophets speak ldquothe truth of thingsrdquo Bishop Coyne

reminded the journalists and communicators during his

homily at the opening Mass that the faithful are ldquocalled by

name from within the community and imbued with the

Spirit to speak the truth of Jesus Christ

The call to be heralds and prophets of the kingdom of

God is one that is shared by virtue of our common bapsmrdquo

he said during the liturgy at St John the Evangelist Church

ldquoToday as in the past our community needs to hear that

message of truth loud and clearrdquo he said ldquoThat is the

work that you all do so well Through the various means of

communicaons we join in the prophec act of speaking to

the truth of Christrsquos salvific mission to all men and womenrdquo

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

A F Nazareth Goa

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Providing young people the faith skills for discipleship

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Connec Ɵ on

The second goal of faith formaon is to draw young people to

responsible parcipaon in the life mission and work of the

Catholic community Young people hunger for connecon to

be in relaonship and to belong Family peers school youthorganisaons and the Church are primary connecons for

young people Some of the ways in which the Church can fulfil

the second goal of faith formaon are

Being a lsquoyouth friendlyrsquo community that welcomes young

people values their parcipaon and makes use of their

special gis

Integrang young people into the liturgical pastoral and

ministerial life of the parish community

Creang opportunies for young people to enter into

healthy relaonships of trust and respect with their peers

and with adults

Promong Catholic identy and religious literacy through

programmes of adolescent catechesis

Faith FormaƟ on Itrsquos about Gi Ō s and Growth

The third goal of faith formaon is to foster the total

personal and spiritual growth of each young person

Adolescence is an important me for mental spiritual social

and physical growth Their experiences and relaonships

greatly influence their healthy and posive development The

Church should strive to surround young people with the best

possible external scaff olds networks of caring relaonships

of family school peers and adults The Church can fulfil this

goal of faith formaon by

Enabling young people to develop a personal relaonship

with Jesus Acvely supporng posive youth development and

fostering healthy values and life skills

Supporng families of young people by providing

resources programmes and services

Providing opportunies to experience and express caring

service and compassion for others

They need love guidance training discipline and security

Faith formaon occurs within a community that is

praccing and growing in faith A web of relaonships and a

system of experiences form youth for Chrisan faith These

relaonships should be supported by the parish community

resulng from a deep faith and a genuine aff econ for youth

These life-changing relaonships are to be nurtured

through the life of the parish including specific programmes

and strategies This way the youth will grow with a sense of

their own identy and responsibility grow in the faith find

support and encouragement and learn to exercise leadership

in the Church and society

CHANGE YOURSELF amp CHANGE THE WORLD by Percy

Anecdotes used in this column are from the collecons made by the writer over the years The authors of most of them remain anonymous When

known they are acknowledged The writer remains grateful to their authors It is important that the lessons drawn are reflected upon and each reader

draws more lessons relevant to hisher own life

BOUQUETS BRICKBATS or SUGGESTIONS may be sent to Percy St Pius X College Goregaon (East) Mumbai 400 063

In College Ken Davis was asked to prepare a lesson to

teach a speech class Grading was done on creavity

and ability to drive home a point in a memorable wayThe tle of his talk was ldquoThe Law of the Pendulumrdquo For

20 minutes he carefully taught the law of the pendulum

A pendulum can never return to a point higher than the

point from which it was released Because of fricon and

gravity when the pendulum returns it will fall short of

its original release point Each me it swings it makes

less and less of an arc unl finally it is at rest This point

of rest is called the state of equilibrium where all forces

acng on the pendulum are equal

For a praccal demonstraon Ken hanged from the

steel ceiling beams in the middle of the room a large

crude but funconal pendulum (A metal ball weighing

250 kgs ed to a strong parachute cord) He then invitedthe teacher to climb up on a table and sit in a chair with

the back of his head against the cement wall Then he

brought the 250 kgs metal ball up to his nose holding

the huge pendulum just a fracon of an inch for which he

had been applauded only moments before ldquoIf the law of

the pendulum is truerdquo he said ldquothen when I release this

mass of metal it will swing across the room and return

short of the release point Our teacherrsquos nose will be inno dangerrdquo

Aer that final restatement of the law Ken looked the

teacher in the eye and asked ldquoSir do you believe this law

is truerdquo There was a lile pause Huge beads of sweat

formed on the upper lip of the teacher and then weakly

he nodded and whispered ldquoYesrdquo Ken brought the metal

ball one cenmetre away from the nose of the teacher

and released the pendulum It made a swishing sound

as it raced across the room At the far end of its swing it

paused momentarily and started back The students never

saw a man move so fast in their life as their teacher did

as he dived from the table to avoid the metal mass hit

his head Ken asked the class ldquoDoes our teacher believein the law of the pendulumrdquo The students unanimously

answered ldquoNOrdquo

Do we always believe in the Word of God or do we at

mes of tesng fall away

Re fl ecti ons

on our

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

For the faith journey to reach its

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

AsiaNews

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

George President of the Global Council of Indian Chrisans

(GCIC) denounced the increase in violence against the

Chrisans of Tamil Nadu Three of the five aacks occurred

The tensions erupted on June 21 when a mob of Hindu

extremists from the Bharatiya Janatha Party (BJP) and

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) went to Vanagiri

Menavar and ordered the Hindu populaon to boyco the

Chrisans prevenng them from praying and going to Mass

The extremists had already visited the village in May with

the same demands To avoid clashes the local authories

on June 23 organized a meeng of reconciliaon between

the two communities The meeting also involved Thiru

KA Jayapal Minister of Fisheries who however failed to

convince the extremists to leave the village In the evening

the Hindus aacked Chrisan homes with swords and scksburnt and plundered four buildings forcing the populaon

to flee 15 people were injured in the clash including two in

crical condion Aer the assault the remaining families

in the village contacted the police staon of Poompuhar

which however refused to co-operate forcing Chrisans

to go to the authorities of the district of Nagapattinam

These authories allowed them to file a complaint but did

not initiate an investigation leaving the perpetrators of

the act unpunished

On June 24 Mahalingam one of the wounded Chrisans

was found dead in the hospital in unclear circumstances

According to his son Rajendran who was also hospitalizedthe man was in bed and in stable condion and would have

been killed by extremists The news triggered panic and the

camped out a few kilometers from the village

The document describes the current situaon of priestly

falling birth-rates and a fall in religious pracces have led

to a decline in vocaons and an increasingly elderly pool of

the requirements of the new evangelizaon are shaping a

new situaon for the Churchrdquo the document states

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

SR ROMANA FERNANDESSR ROMANA FERNANDES

e somemes wonder

what makes a non-

Chrisan embrace

Chrisanity Is it because

one or the other partner is a Catholic

Or is it because society will look down

upon the person who does not pracce

onersquos faith Or is it something deeper

Our spiritual life is a journey into

faith of discovering Christ as the

Way Truth and the Life and fostering

that inmate friendship with Jesus

The stages of spiritual growth can be

compared to stages of falling in love

When a young boy or girl falls in love

ini

ally it is the a

rac

on stage wherethe man romances the woman of his

dreams Followed by passion inmacy

and finally commitment If we analyze

each step we understand that each

level is important and both the partners

have to work together to reach the final

stage of commitment However that

is not the end It calls for a daily dying

to self and seeking the interests of the

other above onersquos own Selfishness has

to give way to selflessness the lsquoIrsquo has

to be merged into lsquoyoursquo And one gets

completely lost in the otherWhen we look at the lives of St

Catherine of Siena St John of the

Cross St Teresa of Avila we see that

they all underwent the above stages

of aracon But much more than

aracon humiliaon rejecon

abandonment is what they endured

What kept them going Faith St John

of the Cross speaks of the Dark Night

and writes hopefully in his poem

lsquoHow well I know the Spring that brims

and fl ows Although by nightrsquo

What knowledge is John of the Cross

speaking about A living knowledge

of God a real knowledge that of

knowing- itrsquos a discovery an encounter

an aracon a secret unspeakable

joy Blessed Teresa of Kolkata suff

eredtremendous spiritual desolaon yet her

faith was the light in the dark tunnel

For the faith journey to reach its

goal or desnaon abounding love is

necessary Love coupled with belief in

the other No maer what my Love will

see that I reach the journey It may not

happen instantaneously But the belief

in God will carry us through To make

progress or headway in spiritual life

we need to engage our head and heart

too It is a journey from the head to the

heart It is the mind in contemplaonthe mind in search of God and the mind

in love with God

St Thomas Aquinas the great

theologian in his Summa Theologica

states lsquoSacred study was an important

task Engaging oneself in the study of

Scripture was itself a prayerrsquo Aquinas

in his commentary on The Epistle to

the Hebrews writes ldquoThe doctrine

of sacred Scripture contains not only

maers for speculaon as in geometry

but also maers to be accepted by

the heartrdquo The aff ecve level and the

intellectual level is totally involved in

short it is the totality of the person

Aquinasrsquo view was that lsquotheological

study the passionate unrelenng

pursuit of divine truth was itself somehow an actual form of prayerrsquo

Serious thinking about the Gospel was

for Aquinas ldquonothing less than a sacred

acvityrdquo says Fr Paul Murray OP in his

arcle lsquoAquinas at Prayer The Interior

Life of a ldquoMysc on Campusrdquorsquo

In recent years the Archdiocese

has witnessed a spurt in the number

of lay people undertaking the study

of Theology and Scripture However

what about the average Sunday

Church-goer Does the Bible occupy

an important place in hisher life Are

we taking an interest and do we have

a desire to read and understand the

Word of God Thomas Aquinas we are

told would withdraw into secret prayer

in order to obtain understanding of

the divine mysteries We barely have

me to reflect ponder and assimilate

on the divine truths We donrsquot delight

ourselves with the contemplaon of

wisdom We feel that contemplaon

is not meant for an acve individual

But it is precisely for us who live in afast-growing world bombarded with

cacophony that we need to withdraw

into silence to be alone with the Alone

and find God within ourselves

Paul in his LeƩ er to the Corinthians

is very firm when he says that he could

not give them solid food because they

were not prepared for it Instead he

fed them with milk The same analogy

can be applied to us too We would

not be able to reach spiritual heights

with milk as our sustenance We have

to take recourse of the Sacramentsthe teachings of the Church study of

Sacred Theology and in prayer taste

the delights of Godrsquos presence and

his mystery

Journeying in faith is not easy There

are no short cuts and even roads It is

like walking on a ght rope but with the

assurance that God is present even in

His absence and it is His absence which

makes the diff erence - that is faith

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

365 DAILY AFFIRMATIONS FOR FRIENDSHIP is such a concise

spent decades in close communion with the nature in one

of Indiarsquos most picturesque regions the North-East and seen

the changing face of ecology firsthandThe author is so convinced about the need to treat

creation with the respect and reverence due that he finds

support even in the Apostolic tradition of Hippolytus in

the third century exhorting Christians to pray alongside

the stars the forests and the watersrdquo [p 105] As Starets

Zossima says in Dostoeyevskyrsquos The Brothers Karamazov

ldquoLove all Godrsquos creation the whole and every grain of

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

maers in the endrdquo

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

The next session on Communion of Saints will be held on

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

started schools and used educaon to empower people

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Unforgettable

Memories

Juliet08071988 ndash 08072012

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

Friendship certainly is one of the most valuable of inmate

human relaonships cung as it does across all barriers

and boundaries in terms of age gender and social status

However there is no gainsaying the fact that friendship is

not something accomplished once-for-all but a relaonship

that needs to be affirmed daily and worked at constantly It

takes the will to stay connected to our friends Indeed it is

such connecvity alone that can keep friendship constantly

nourished and only such friendship that can be genuinely

cherished This book will help you build up and foster true

and lasng friendships that will stand the test of me and

withstand the inevitable storms of daily living The book is

divided into two parts Part 1 lists 365 affirmaons one for

each day of the year Built on the concept of posivity each

of these affirmaons poses a challenge no reader can even

pretend to overlook

Part 2 deals with friendship-related acvies both at work

and at leisure pointedly bringing to the fore so much that we

take for granted But the poron of the book that puts all this

into correct perspecve is the nearly 49 page ldquoIntroduconrdquo

that discusses the various types of friends and friendships

and the levels concerning each

The author a sociologist conducts workshops on

producvity based on her original two decades-long research

and has 27 books to her credit covering topics in various areasof business and relaonships That in a way would explain why

365 DAILY AFFIRMATIONS FOR FRIENDSHIP is such a concise

and praccal volume that can fit into onersquos pocket Make a

grab for it ndash you wonrsquot ever regret it

saying some two thousand years ago to the Galaans ldquoAll

Menamparampil Archbishop Emeritus of Guwaha has

apparently made his own His Grace should know ndash he has

spent decades in close communion with the nature in one

of Indiarsquos most picturesque regions the North-East and seen

the changing face of ecology firsthandThe author is so convinced about the need to treat

creation with the respect and reverence due that he finds

support even in the Apostolic tradition of Hippolytus in

the third century exhorting Christians to pray alongside

the stars the forests and the watersrdquo [p 105] As Starets

Zossima says in Dostoeyevskyrsquos The Brothers Karamazov

ldquoLove all Godrsquos creation the whole and every grain of

sand in it Love every leaf every ray of Godrsquos light Love

the plants love everything If you love everything you

will perceive the divine mystery in thingsrdquo [p 105] In

the final analysis we do ldquohave a mission to protect the

environmentrdquo - ldquo There is a growing consensus among men

and women of religion medicine literature and arts aboutthe need for the preservation of living systems Now is

the time for actionrdquo [p 76] The author does have a word

of caution though ldquoCare for naturerdquo says he ldquois not the

same as idolisation of naturerdquo [p 70]

Simple unassuming Menamparampil says what he has to

say not merely in words but in pictures too ndash pictures black-

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

maers in the endrdquo

Pillai according to the Church records was executed in

1752 for refusing to abandon his new faith He was killed

at a place which is now under Koar diocese Kanyakumari

district that iniated his canonizaon cause in 1984

To speed up the process the diocese in 1990 sent to

Rome the case of a lame Hindu boy who walked aer seeing

Bishopsrsquo Conference of India endorsed his canonisaon

cause the first official aempt to have an Indian lay person

declared a saint It was also the first me the Bishopsrsquo

Conference directly took up a canonisaon cause

The other candidate for sainthood is Thommachan

He began leading a life of piety at the age of 28 and

gathered a group of lay people who prayed for sinners and

June 23 was a special day for the Indian Province of the

Society of the Sacred Heart What made this day so special

was that five of its members celebrated the Golden Jubilee

of their First Commitment The Eucharist was held in St

Theresarsquos Church Haregaon Bishop Lourdes Daniel of

Nashik was the main celebrant joined by ten concelebrants

Below are some significant features in the lives of

the jubilarians

Sr Gladys DrsquoSouza In 1978 she launched her project

of lsquoEducaon to Realityrsquo producing a series of English

language text books for teaching the language and at the

same me conscienzing the students to the unjust socio-

economic situaons and structures in our country and in

the world also bringing out the rich tradions in our local

to teachers using the texts and enlivening the teaching of

English through many interesng illustraons and acvies

Sr Rosa Salve Her fiy years of service have taken

her from Haregaon where she looked aer the hostel to

teaching tribal children in the Jesuit school in the Talasari

mission where we had a community She spent many

years in the Christa Prema Seva Ashram in Pune with Sr

Sara Grant For many years now she has been serving

in the Balwadi for local children that the Sophia Nursery

has always sponsored Many generaons of children have

experienced her motherly care and concern over the years

Sr Cecilia Adhav She worked for several years ll

rerement in KEM Hospital Pune but has had an equallylong career as Nursing tutor For a couple of years in the

Talasari Mission she movated many of the tribal girls to

take up Nursing as a career and worked in a team collecng

the tribal herbal medicines learning from as well as

training the local Vaidus and giving much health educaon

in the primary and high schools run by Jesuits in the area

This last period of her service as a religious began with

her organizing the Nurses Aid Course in the Ahmednagar

district first with the JM sisters in Rahuri then in Bhokar

guiding the new centres started in Ghodegaon and Nasik

Aer helping with the ANM courses in Wadala and Kamgar

hospitals she has succeeded in seng up the GNM Course

in Kamgar Hospital All these courses have helped many

girls in this area especially in Haregaon get trained and

find good jobs at the same me serving their own people

Sr Shalini Salve She spent two years in Haregaon at

its very foundaon in 1961 and then learnt to go where

she was sent to serve- in the Sophia College community

then to Bangalore She was part of the community we

had in Vasai for a year She then spent six years as social

worker in City Church parish in Pune and another three

years teaching in the parish primary school in Haregaon

She returned to Pune in the early 70rsquos to be of service in

the newly built Provincial house She has spent the last

six years in Haregaon working on a team looking aer the

Studentsrsquo Hostel

joined Sophia College for two years and then went on to do

her teachers training At some point she asked to change

her career and trained for nursing She worked for a me

was involved for a while in Rural Health in Haregaon where

she visited the villages around regularly treang paents

and caring for women and children Her longest service as

a nurse was in Bombay Hospital where she moved to the

in health work served in prison ministry and helped invarious pastoral ventures

Their relaves came from far and near to parcipate in the

dayrsquos celebraons Their presence both at the Eucharisc

service and later at the Agape added much to their joy

As Province we thank God for the ways in which each of

the five jubilarians has allowed God to use their individual

gis and talents in the service of His people Our prayer and

good wishes are with them as they connue their journey

of faith

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

today in terms of management - financial administrave

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Suggestion Municipalbirth certificateSir Recently I had gone to the BMC for geng my childrenrsquos Birth

Cerficate I got the Birth Cerficate but the name of the child

is not menoned I enquired and they told me that records of

names which are more than 15 years old cannot be included In

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

to write to the Municipal authories and get the birth cerficatewith the name of the child included immediately Please contact

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

The Archdiocesan

ConsultationFR GILBERT DE LIMAFR GILBERT DE LIMA

The Archdiocesan Consultaon is undoubtedly a kind of

lsquolooking back ndash looking forwardrsquo when we take stock of

where we are and where we seek to be guided by the

Spirit in the context of the hopes aspiraons and concerns

expressed by diff erent secons of the Church and society

today The Survey team led by Senior Consultant Dr Sr

Anitha Chettiar from Nirmala Niketan College of Social

Work put in massive eff orts to complete the data entry aswe had totally 5082 respondents All the responses were

entered into the SPSS software (Statistical Package for

Social Sciences) Having completed this task the Survey

team then worked on the analysis of the datamdashchecking

for co-relations and significant associations between

various aspects of life delved into by the quesonnaire

while comparing as well the responses of the various

sections of respondents After the data analysis of the

Survey conducted was completed the Survey team

presented the findings to the Working Commiee

The next step was to put together a team for each of

the eight areas delineated in the Survey Priests religiousand lay professionals from various fields were chosen

and given a copy of the Survey findings in addion to the

Post-Synodal Document (PSD) and the Mid-Term Synodal

Assembly (MTSA) document for this task

These teams met among themselves and worked

through the middle of May and June to turn in eight

lsquoStrategy Papersrsquo These Strategy Papers seek to indicate

possible avenues for a future course of action in the

light of the results of the Survey as well as the teachings

of the Church the PSD and the MTSA as also the

developments in society today Given the nature of the

Paper expected they are not essentially analytical butlsquooutcome orientedrsquo Together these eight Papers which

form a lsquoJoint Strategy Paperrsquo will be deliberated across

the Archdiocese by various groups such as the Bishoprsquos

team the Priestsrsquo Council the Archdiocesan Pastoral

Council the Parish Pastoral Councils the Archdiocesan

Youth Council at its meeting of Youth Leaders on July

22 and the Executive Members of the Archdiocesan

Commissions Committees and Ecclesial Associations

(who are also requested to ensure that the same be

discussed at the level of the deaneries wherever

possible) The results of the discussions will then be

collated by August 15 2012

In order to facilitate efficient collation of responses

the data is to be collated online and Sr Joeyanna of the

Daughters of St Paul Communicaon Centre Bandra has

agreed to co-ordinate this process

The need to pray for the Consulta

on is an importantpart of the process To this end 25000 Prayer Cards in

English and Marathi have been printed and are being

distributed to all our parishes with the request that the

Prayer for the Consultaon be recited regularly Banners

related to the Consultation will also be sent to the

parishes through the youth representaves at the Youth

Leaderrsquos Meeng on July 22 In terms of publicity maers

related to the Consultation are regularly posted on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Facebook Page as well as on the

Archdiocese of Bombay Website A blog linked to the

Archdiocesan Website has also been created Videos that

will focus on diff erent aspects of the Consultaon will be

posted regularly online so that the Consultaon goes viralA lsquoteaser ad campaignrsquo is also in the offing

As we journey towards the Archdiocesan Consultaon

sensing the guiding hand of the Spirit through the

insights and assistance we have received from so many

different sources I recall the inspirational words of

Ernest Hemingway who said ldquoIt is good to have an end

to journey toward but it is the journey indeed that

maers in the endrdquo

NOTES COMMENTSNOTES COMMENTSNOTES COMMENTSmartyred in Nagasaki Japan in 1957 at the age of 40

Pillai according to the Church records was executed in

1752 for refusing to abandon his new faith He was killed

at a place which is now under Koar diocese Kanyakumari

district that iniated his canonizaon cause in 1984

To speed up the process the diocese in 1990 sent to

Rome the case of a lame Hindu boy who walked aer seeing

a vision of Pillai In a rare gesture ten years ago the Catholic

Bishopsrsquo Conference of India endorsed his canonisaon

cause the first official aempt to have an Indian lay person

declared a saint It was also the first me the Bishopsrsquo

Conference directly took up a canonisaon cause

The other candidate for sainthood is Thommachan

known as the Kerala Assisi for popularizing the Franciscan

Third Order in Kerala He died in 1908 at the age of 72

He began leading a life of piety at the age of 28 and

gathered a group of lay people who prayed for sinners and

engaged in charitable works

Golden jubilee of five RSCJ sSR PHILOMENA GOMES RSCJSR PHILOMENA GOMES RSCJ

June 23 was a special day for the Indian Province of the

Society of the Sacred Heart What made this day so special

was that five of its members celebrated the Golden Jubilee

of their First Commitment The Eucharist was held in St

Theresarsquos Church Haregaon Bishop Lourdes Daniel of

Nashik was the main celebrant joined by ten concelebrants

Below are some significant features in the lives of

the jubilarians

Sr Gladys DrsquoSouza In 1978 she launched her project

of lsquoEducaon to Realityrsquo producing a series of English

language text books for teaching the language and at the

same me conscienzing the students to the unjust socio-

economic situaons and structures in our country and in

the world also bringing out the rich tradions in our local

and tribal cultures She spent many years giving workshops

to teachers using the texts and enlivening the teaching of

English through many interesng illustraons and acvies

Sr Rosa Salve Her fiy years of service have taken

her from Haregaon where she looked aer the hostel to

teaching tribal children in the Jesuit school in the Talasari

mission where we had a community She spent many

years in the Christa Prema Seva Ashram in Pune with Sr

Sara Grant For many years now she has been serving

in the Balwadi for local children that the Sophia Nursery

has always sponsored Many generaons of children have

experienced her motherly care and concern over the years

Sr Cecilia Adhav She worked for several years ll

rerement in KEM Hospital Pune but has had an equallylong career as Nursing tutor For a couple of years in the

Talasari Mission she movated many of the tribal girls to

take up Nursing as a career and worked in a team collecng

the tribal herbal medicines learning from as well as

training the local Vaidus and giving much health educaon

in the primary and high schools run by Jesuits in the area

This last period of her service as a religious began with

her organizing the Nurses Aid Course in the Ahmednagar

district first with the JM sisters in Rahuri then in Bhokar

guiding the new centres started in Ghodegaon and Nasik

Aer helping with the ANM courses in Wadala and Kamgar

hospitals she has succeeded in seng up the GNM Course

in Kamgar Hospital All these courses have helped many

girls in this area especially in Haregaon get trained and

find good jobs at the same me serving their own people

Sr Shalini Salve She spent two years in Haregaon at

its very foundaon in 1961 and then learnt to go where

she was sent to serve- in the Sophia College community

then to Bangalore She was part of the community we

had in Vasai for a year She then spent six years as social

worker in City Church parish in Pune and another three

years teaching in the parish primary school in Haregaon

She returned to Pune in the early 70rsquos to be of service in

the newly built Provincial house She has spent the last

six years in Haregaon working on a team looking aer the

Studentsrsquo Hostel

Sr Prabha Aer compleng her schooling in Silvasa she

joined Sophia College for two years and then went on to do

her teachers training At some point she asked to change

her career and trained for nursing She worked for a me

in Parsee General Hospital close to Sophia College and

was involved for a while in Rural Health in Haregaon where

she visited the villages around regularly treang paents

and caring for women and children Her longest service as

a nurse was in Bombay Hospital where she moved to the

Nursing School as tutor Since rerement she has helped

in health work served in prison ministry and helped invarious pastoral ventures

Their relaves came from far and near to parcipate in the

dayrsquos celebraons Their presence both at the Eucharisc

service and later at the Agape added much to their joy

As Province we thank God for the ways in which each of

the five jubilarians has allowed God to use their individual

gis and talents in the service of His people Our prayer and

good wishes are with them as they connue their journey

of faith

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

started schools and used educaon to empower people

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Unforgettable

Memories

Juliet08071988 ndash 08072012

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

Cardinal Gracias In the midstof economic amp social crisis weremember St J osemaria EscrivaThe teachings of St Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer a

true ldquosaint of our mesrdquo are ldquomore urgentrdquo than ever in

these mes of economic and social crisis said Cardinal

Oswald Gracias Archbishop of Bombay and President

of the Catholic Bishopsrsquo Conference of India (CBCI)

commemorating the founder of Opus Dei on June 26

his liturgical memorial For the occasion the Cardinal

celebrated the Mass at St Andrewrsquos Church Bandra

Canonized by Pope John Paul II October 6 2002 the

Spanish priest founded the Personal Prelature of Opus Dei

to holiness affirming the importance of work as a means

of personal holiness and apostolate when lived in union

According to Cardinal Gracias the priestrsquos teaching on the

sancficaon of the work is now ldquourgentrdquo to ldquobring honesty

In India where Chrisans are a minority of just 23 per

cent (and Catholics are only 18 per cent) the teachings

of the saint are even more fundamental ldquoLiving in a non-

Chrisan society - said the Cardinal - requires us to witness

this holiness every day with our lives We are called to have

a structured and mature faith this is the priority of the

Church in Indiardquo

AsiaNews

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

The next session on Communion of Saints will be held on

Sunday July 22 2012 at Pope Paul Hall IC Church at 11 am

not initiate an investigation leaving the perpetrators of

the act unpunished

On June 24 Mahalingam one of the wounded Chrisans

was found dead in the hospital in unclear circumstances

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

They enable us to focus our mind and aenon when wepray Images are used only as symbols to bring us into the

presence of God or the saints In the early Church they were

used for instrucon of illiterate people Religious images are

used even by those who oppose them The very Chrisan

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

Mary and the saints do have in their literature and homes

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

or television) since the images shown there in them are

not intended to be worshipped or adored These arts serve

to develop the God-given skills of arsts who show in their

works the beauty and glory of Godrsquos gis (cfEx 313-6) andthereby lead people to glorify God

The next session on Communion of Saints will be held on

Sunday July 22 2012 at Pope Paul Hall IC Church at 11 am

Godrsquos call when they are presented with a strong example of

Chrisan life in the home or wider community Moreover

young men oen feel encouraged to consider a vocaon

as a result of the ldquojoyful witness of the priestsrdquo they have

encountered in their lives

ldquoThe most favourable environment for vocaons to the

priesthood is every Chrisan community that listens to theWord of God prays with the liturgy and gives witness with

perceived and recognizedrdquo the document concludes

Bishops Anger hatred afterbombings is at dangerous level

Nigeriarsquos Catholic Bishops expressed concern that angerand hatred are growing among Christian and Muslim

communies and have reached a dangerous level following

a spate of church bombings believed to be carried out by a

fundamentalist Islamic sect ldquoThese are sad days for Nigeria

and for all Nigeriansrdquo the Bishops said in a statement

released in Abuja ldquoWe feel greatly pained by the violent

events which have become almost daily occurrencesrdquo

The statement signed by Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama

of Jos President of the Catholic Bishopsrsquo Conference

of Nigeria and Archbishop Alfred Adewale Martins of

Lagos lamented the lack of security for Chrisans despite

mounng aacks Calling upon all Nigerians to defuse the

rising tensions the bishops also urged the government

to step up its acons to protect all people from violence

The bishops also condemned reprisal attacks on Muslim

communies The most recent incidents occurred June 17

when 45 people were reported killed aer four churches in

Zaria and Kaduna were bombed

UNESCO adds Church of Nativity to the list of heritage sites in dangerUNESCO has placed sites -- including the Church of the

Nativity -- in Bethlehem West Bank on its list of World

Heritage in Danger In a 13-6 vote with two abstenons the

World Heritage Commiee added the sites to the danger

list during a meeting in St Petersburg In its application

Palestine which became a full UNESCO member last

October -- said the church had not had upkeep and repairs

since 1967 when Israel began occupaon of the West Bank

and because of Israeli restricons on movement in and outof the territory

Inscribing a site on the List of World Heritage in

Danger allows the World Heritage Commiee to allocate

immediate assistance from the World Heritage Fund to

the endangered property It also alerts the internaonal

community to situations in the hope that it can join

eff orts to save these endangered sites The United States

and Israel -- who were not committee members -- had

opposed the move Last fall the custodian of the Holy

Land Franciscan Fr Pierbasta Pizzaballa told the Italian

bishopsrsquo news agency SIR that the Franciscans were

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

(the church) because under UNESCO rules the board

in charge of running a place for the UN agency is the

government not the owner of a siterdquo

Bishop tells communicators

ldquothey serve Church asfaithful prophetsrdquoCatholic communicators who are filled with faith can serve

as prophets by their commitment to spread the good

news of Christ to the world Bishop Christopher J Coyne

apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis

told Catholic Media Conference participants Explaining

that prophets speak ldquothe truth of thingsrdquo Bishop Coyne

reminded the journalists and communicators during his

homily at the opening Mass that the faithful are ldquocalled by

Spirit to speak the truth of Jesus Christ

The call to be heralds and prophets of the kingdom of

God is one that is shared by virtue of our common bapsmrdquo

he said during the liturgy at St John the Evangelist Church

ldquoToday as in the past our community needs to hear that

message of truth loud and clearrdquo he said ldquoThat is the

work that you all do so well Through the various means of

communicaons we join in the prophec act of speaking to

the truth of Christrsquos salvific mission to all men and womenrdquo

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

In India where Chrisans are a minority of just 23 per

cent (and Catholics are only 18 per cent) the teachings

of the saint are even more fundamental ldquoLiving in a non-

Chrisan society - said the Cardinal - requires us to witness

this holiness every day with our lives We are called to have

a structured and mature faith this is the priority of the

Church in Indiardquo

AsiaNews

Apologetics talks on lsquodoCatholics worship idolsrsquoThe Apologec Talks resumed on June 24 2012 at Pope Paul

Hall IC Church In the Catholic Church we see Catholics

praying before the statues When a person enters a Catholic

church one can see people kneeling and praying at diff erent

places inside the church In churches and in our homes

there are statues of our Lord on the Cross Mother Mary

and many other saints The Catholics have been accused

of worshipping idols The accusaon just donrsquot end at that

it goes further - Catholics make statues pictures medals

and other depicons of Jesus Christ Mary and the saints

and they worship them and thus commit the sin of idolatry

Catholics violate the Word of God as written in the Old

Testament Ex 204-5 Rev Fr Vincent through his session

explained and gave an insight saying this accusaon against

the Catholics lacks both biblical and rational basis The

an-image atude of these people is one of the instance

of their general an-incarnaon posion which tends to

downplay the bodiliness of Chrisan worship hence they

are against images rituals sacraments and sacramentals

Nowhere does the Ten Commandments or the Decalogueforbids making images The Lord himself commanded that

images be carved and painted not as gods or idols but

to help worshippers and to put them in an atmosphere of

devoon and arsc beauty We can see this instrucon

been carried out and followed by people of the OT mes

when we read Ex 2510-20 Ex 377-9 1 Kgs 623-35 1Kgs

86-7 In Num 217 -8 when Moses interceded with Yahweh

on behalf of the people Yahweh instructed Moses to make

a bronze serpent and put it up on a high platform and

anyone who is suff ering when they look at the serpent will

be saved The serpent was used for healing This seems to

be a precursor to our Lord on the Cross We also see Jesus

referring to this episode in Jn 314-15 We also come across

a similar instrucon in Wis 167-8

The official teaching of the Catholic Church according

to different Councils say that the statues must be kept

preserved and venerated and given the same honour as the

books of the Holy Gospel The Decree of December 3 1563

of the Council of Trent Session XXV says that ldquothrough

these images which we kiss and before which we kneel we

are adoring Christ and venerang the saints whose likeness

these images bearrdquo

We use images to serve as aids to the memory and the

imaginaon They remind us of Christ and the saints Images

are used in religious life as they are used in secular life

fundamentalists who reject images and statues of Jesus

images of Christ According to their logic they should abolish

this image from their books and homes Obviously God has

not forbidden the arts (sculpture or painng or photography

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Suggestion Municipalbirth certificateSir Recently I had gone to the BMC for geng my childrenrsquos Birth

Cerficate I got the Birth Cerficate but the name of the child

is not menoned I enquired and they told me that records of

names which are more than 15 years old cannot be included In

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

to write to the Municipal authories and get the birth cerficatewith the name of the child included immediately Please contact

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

Christians targetedby Hindu extremistsOne dead over 15 injured houses looted and burned this

George President of the Global Council of Indian Chrisans

(GCIC) denounced the increase in violence against the

Chrisans of Tamil Nadu Three of the five aacks occurred

The tensions erupted on June 21 when a mob of Hindu

extremists from the Bharatiya Janatha Party (BJP) and

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) went to Vanagiri

Menavar and ordered the Hindu populaon to boyco the

Chrisans prevenng them from praying and going to Mass

The extremists had already visited the village in May with

the same demands To avoid clashes the local authories

on June 23 organized a meeng of reconciliaon between

the two communities The meeting also involved Thiru

KA Jayapal Minister of Fisheries who however failed to

convince the extremists to leave the village In the evening

the Hindus aacked Chrisan homes with swords and scksburnt and plundered four buildings forcing the populaon

to flee 15 people were injured in the clash including two in

crical condion Aer the assault the remaining families

in the village contacted the police staon of Poompuhar

which however refused to co-operate forcing Chrisans

to go to the authorities of the district of Nagapattinam

These authories allowed them to file a complaint but did

not initiate an investigation leaving the perpetrators of

the act unpunished

On June 24 Mahalingam one of the wounded Chrisans

was found dead in the hospital in unclear circumstances

According to his son Rajendran who was also hospitalizedthe man was in bed and in stable condion and would have

been killed by extremists The news triggered panic and the

few families sll living in Vanagiri Menavar fled and are sll

camped out a few kilometers from the village

In 2012 Hindu extremists have intensified their aacks

falling birth-rates and a fall in religious pracces have led

to a decline in vocaons and an increasingly elderly pool of

the requirements of the new evangelizaon are shaping a

new situaon for the Churchrdquo the document states

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

A F Nazareth Goa

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Suggestion Municipalbirth certificateSir Recently I had gone to the BMC for geng my childrenrsquos Birth

Cerficate I got the Birth Cerficate but the name of the child

is not menoned I enquired and they told me that records of

names which are more than 15 years old cannot be included In

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

to write to the Municipal authories and get the birth cerficatewith the name of the child included immediately Please contact

the ward office of the area they are born

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

ldquoThe Holy Father is seeking to deepen his knowledge of

the situaon through connuous dialogue with those who

share with him the responsibility for governing the Churchrdquo

Fr Lombardi off ered He noted that the Holy Father already

met with the commission of Cardinals he formed to

invesgate the leaksrsquo situaon

Fr Lombardi said the Ponff will connue ldquohis discussions

and reflecons also taking advantage of the fact that manypastors have come to Rome for the Feast of Sts Peter and

Catholics Pope Benedict XVI has named US Archbishop

J Augustine Di Noia to fill a newly-created post of vice

president of the Ponfical Commission ldquoEcclesia Deirdquo ldquoThe

appointment of a high-ranking prelate to this posion is a

sign of the Holy Fatherrsquos pastoral solicitude for tradionalist

Catholics in communion with the Holy See and his

strong desire for the reconciliaon of those tradionalist

communies not in union with the See of Peterrdquo the Vacan

said in a wrien statement on June 26

Priests for the 3rd MillenniumThe Congregation for Catholic Education on June 25

released a 27-page document with guidelines on how to

promote vocaons to the priesthood and religious life

The text ldquoPastoral Guidelines for Fostering Vocaons to

Priestly Ministryrdquo is made up of three parts that examinethe state of vocaons in todayrsquos world the vocaon and

identy of priesthood and suggesons for the promoon

of vocaons The guidelines are based on the results of a

quesonnaire sent out worldwide aer the 2008 plenary

assembly of the Congregaon for Catholic Educaon and

was written with inputs from the Congregations for the

Evangelization of Peoples for the Eastern Churches for

Instutes of Consecrated Life and Sociees of Apostolic Life

and for the Clergy

The final text was approved by the Holy Father on

March 25 the 20th anniversary of the apostolic exhortaon

Pastores dabo vobis

The document describes the current situaon of priestly

vocaons as ldquogood and badrdquo It notes how consumerism

falling birth-rates and a fall in religious pracces have led

to a decline in vocaons and an increasingly elderly pool of

priests to serve the Church

ldquoIn tradionally Chrisan countries the worrying fall in

the number of priests the rising of their average age and

the requirements of the new evangelizaon are shaping a

new situaon for the Churchrdquo the document states

In the light of those difficultiesrdquo said Cardinal

Grocholewski the document lays down the conditionsnecessary to ensure that the grace of the call finds

ferle terrain in the Church and openness among young

people to the priestly vocaonrdquo This includes creang a

fruitful soil for Christian life in the ecclesial community

the irreplaceable function of prayer the importance of

integrated pastoral care a new drive to evangelisaon and

the mission the central role of the family a coherent and

joyful witness of life on the part of priests the educaonal

effectiveness of voluntary work and the importance of

schools and universies

Godrsquos call when they are presented with a strong example of

Chrisan life in the home or wider community Moreover

young men oen feel encouraged to consider a vocaon

as a result of the ldquojoyful witness of the priestsrdquo they have

encountered in their lives

ldquoThe most favourable environment for vocaons to the

priesthood is every Chrisan community that listens to theWord of God prays with the liturgy and gives witness with

charity In this context the mission of a priest is most clearly

UNESCO adds Church of Nativity to the list of heritage sites in dangerUNESCO has placed sites -- including the Church of the

Nativity -- in Bethlehem West Bank on its list of World

Heritage in Danger In a 13-6 vote with two abstenons the

World Heritage Commiee added the sites to the danger

list during a meeting in St Petersburg In its application

Palestine which became a full UNESCO member last

October -- said the church had not had upkeep and repairs

since 1967 when Israel began occupaon of the West Bank

and because of Israeli restricons on movement in and outof the territory

Inscribing a site on the List of World Heritage in

Danger allows the World Heritage Commiee to allocate

immediate assistance from the World Heritage Fund to

the endangered property It also alerts the internaonal

community to situations in the hope that it can join

eff orts to save these endangered sites The United States

and Israel -- who were not committee members -- had

opposed the move Last fall the custodian of the Holy

Land Franciscan Fr Pierbasta Pizzaballa told the Italian

bishopsrsquo news agency SIR that the Franciscans were

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

He decided to take you back to

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

Bishops Anger hatred afterbombings is at dangerous level

Nigeriarsquos Catholic Bishops expressed concern that angerand hatred are growing among Christian and Muslim

communies and have reached a dangerous level following

a spate of church bombings believed to be carried out by a

fundamentalist Islamic sect ldquoThese are sad days for Nigeria

and for all Nigeriansrdquo the Bishops said in a statement

released in Abuja ldquoWe feel greatly pained by the violent

events which have become almost daily occurrencesrdquo

The statement signed by Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama

of Jos President of the Catholic Bishopsrsquo Conference

of Nigeria and Archbishop Alfred Adewale Martins of

Lagos lamented the lack of security for Chrisans despite

mounng aacks Calling upon all Nigerians to defuse the

rising tensions the bishops also urged the government

to step up its acons to protect all people from violence

The bishops also condemned reprisal attacks on Muslim

communies The most recent incidents occurred June 17

when 45 people were reported killed aer four churches in

Zaria and Kaduna were bombed

UNESCO adds Church of Nativity to the list of heritage sites in dangerUNESCO has placed sites -- including the Church of the

Nativity -- in Bethlehem West Bank on its list of World

Heritage in Danger In a 13-6 vote with two abstenons the

World Heritage Commiee added the sites to the danger

list during a meeting in St Petersburg In its application

Palestine which became a full UNESCO member last

October -- said the church had not had upkeep and repairs

since 1967 when Israel began occupaon of the West Bank

and because of Israeli restricons on movement in and outof the territory

Inscribing a site on the List of World Heritage in

Danger allows the World Heritage Commiee to allocate

immediate assistance from the World Heritage Fund to

the endangered property It also alerts the internaonal

community to situations in the hope that it can join

eff orts to save these endangered sites The United States

and Israel -- who were not committee members -- had

opposed the move Last fall the custodian of the Holy

Land Franciscan Fr Pierbasta Pizzaballa told the Italian

bishopsrsquo news agency SIR that the Franciscans were

hoping the Church of the Navity would not be includedon a UNESCO list He said he and other Chrisan leaders

believed the iniave would make ldquoit harder for us to run

(the church) because under UNESCO rules the board

in charge of running a place for the UN agency is the

Bishop tells communicators

ldquothey serve Church asfaithful prophetsrdquoCatholic communicators who are filled with faith can serve

as prophets by their commitment to spread the good

news of Christ to the world Bishop Christopher J Coyne

apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis

told Catholic Media Conference participants Explaining

that prophets speak ldquothe truth of thingsrdquo Bishop Coyne

reminded the journalists and communicators during his

homily at the opening Mass that the faithful are ldquocalled by

name from within the community and imbued with the

Spirit to speak the truth of Jesus Christ

The call to be heralds and prophets of the kingdom of

God is one that is shared by virtue of our common bapsmrdquo

he said during the liturgy at St John the Evangelist Church

ldquoToday as in the past our community needs to hear that

message of truth loud and clearrdquo he said ldquoThat is the

work that you all do so well Through the various means of

communicaons we join in the prophec act of speaking to

the truth of Christrsquos salvific mission to all men and womenrdquo

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

THETHE

Suggestions for

ConsultationSir Parish Pastoral Councils (PPCs) are democracally elected

church bodies Meengs are generally held every month

in an orderly manner Proper agenda and minutes are

maintained and circulated among the PPC members ensuring

transparency It would be appreciated if suggesons for

discussion are invited from parishioners (along with name) to

be included in the agenda if thought fit Also the minutes of

the meengs need to be displayed on the parish noce board

and published in the parish bullennewsleersmagazine

Parishioners need to be kept in the loop always as they are

stakeholders of the parish and decisions taken must be for

the general good of the majority of parishioners Moreover

such a move will ensure complete transparency

Prof Robert Castellino Orlem

Mission of Catholic schoolsSir In the news item in the DNA dt June 30 2012 (Shut

schools with few Catholics) I was dismayed to read of the

stance taken suggested by some Chrisan groups to deal

with a situaon Let us remember that Chrisan missionaries

started schools and used educaon to empower people

socially and economically and in the process many were ableto understand and appreciate Chrisanity and maybe even

converted to Chrisanity Catholics schools must rise to the

challenges being posed to all secular educaonal instuons

today in terms of management - financial administrave

academic - and connue to be the torch bearer in the field

of educaon

Caroline Dsouza Marol

Foundations of the familySir Without appearing patronising I would like to congratulate

Adrian Rosario on the excellent and informave editorial hehas wrien in The Examiner of June 23 2012

It should interest all readers of The Examiner because

it mirrors what is happening in society of the present day

The hardships experienced by the common man have been

highlighted All readers will identify with the situations

discussed He has raised the issue of Faith dimension He

has also suggested rituals to help us manage our joys and

sorrows What are these Rituals

We are closely knit as family members and charity always

begins at home but should not rest there It must extend

outward to others but given in such a way that it is not too

obvious for the recipient or embarrassing Every service

to others must be done in the spirit of Christrsquos teachings

Being human fricon will occur but the oil of politeness and

courtesy can minimise this How do we reach out to the lonely

and depressed without encroaching on their space We must

gently get them back to the mainstream Many quesons sllremain unanswered

Albert C deSouza Bandra

Domestic violenceSir Although a significant number of married men are vicms

of domesc abuse and violence in our country it is regreable

that there are no laws to protect them from any form of

domesc violence and abuse even though we have laws for

the protecon of women laws for the protecon of gays and

even laws for prevenon of cruelty to animals The idea that

men could be vicms of domesc violence is so unthinkableto most people that men will not even venture to report a

black-eye or bruise resulng from a blow from his spouse

Domesc violence can be either verbal physical mental

or financial Humiliang a man before other men by calling

him a failure coward or impotent can be more devastang

than physical abuse It has been reported that more than 50

per cent of such mental abuse cases are from women having

personality disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

severe mood-swings alcohol abuse drugs and unrealisc

demands from their spouse

Several marriages have been ruined because of mental

cruelty and since there are no laws to protect men from

emoonal abuse some married men prefer to remain in such

abusive relaonships to save their marriage and protect their

children from their abusive mother

PA Sangmarsquos

presidential bidSir It is disheartening to note that once our Christian

policians reach the higher echelons of polical life theytend to forget their Chrisan roots be it George Fernandes

who absolved the Sangh Parivar of any involvement in the

Staines murder case calling it a foreign conspiracy or A K

Anthony a confirmed atheist and of late PA Sangma In

an interview reported in the Times of India (June 25 2012)

Sangma was asked about the alleged an-Chrisan stance of

the BJP and AIADMK and why he was seeking their support

for the Presidenal elecons Jayalalitha had enacted the an-

conversion law apparently to please the Sangh Parivar but

later withdrew it The BJP-affiliated Sangh Parivarrsquos alleged

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Cerficate I got the Birth Cerficate but the name of the child

is not menoned I enquired and they told me that records of

names which are more than 15 years old cannot be included In

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

role in Kandhamal killings and Graham Stainesrsquo murder is well

known Sangma said there was no proof to suggest the BJPrsquos

involvement in the riots ldquoWhere is the proof that the BJP

has done it (Kandhamal killings) Donrsquot jump to conclusions

Donrsquot make such wild allegaonsrdquo he is reported to have said

Calling his statement outrageous and a great disservice to the

vicms of the riots would be an understatement

May I remind Mr Sangma that in the run-up to the 2009elecon his current mentor Naveen Patnaik had severed

his es with the BJP saying that the alliance in the state had

to be broken because it became impossible for him to stay

with the BJP aer the Kandhamal riots which had ldquohorrified

the enre worldrdquo

Tony Menezes Wadala (E)

Kudos to girlsSir It was very heartening to read that girls have outshone

boys in the IIT-JEE ICSE CBSE and other exams All this

indicates that girls are possibly more responsible and more

sincere than boys And yet itrsquos tragic that the rao of girls to

boys is decreasing in various states in our country

Parents especially fathers must realise that girls are

proving to be equal to boys To hate and despise them shows

backwardness in our thinking Our society must rise above this

uneducated atude that exists even among our intellectuals

Harischandra Parshuram Juhu

Rave parties amp drug abuseSir While there is a lot of debate going on whether the

police raid at Oakwood Hotel in May was correct in their

line of duty or whether the cops followed an outdated legal

system it is essenal that our youth avoid lsquoraversquo pares in

their own interest The Mumbai Police revealed that out of

the 92 people detained during the rave party 44 revellers

have tested posive for drugs

Reports indicate that Ravers use amphetamine

methamphetamine cannabis alcohol and cocaine but

such use transcends involvement in the rave culture Crack

and heroin are not yet prominent in rave culture but heroin

use appears to be increasing among ravers Ecstasy is the

drug most closely associated with the rave scene and anincreasingly popular one

Two of ecstasyrsquos common side eff ects are jaw-clenching

and teeth-grinding Because many rave-related drugs are

manufactured illegally users cannot be sure of the exact

chemical contents of what they take What is sold as ecstasy

for example may actually be a diff erent drug or a mixture of

ecstasy and other acve drugs or adulterants

Few rave-related drug users get seriously addicted to the

drugs and a few turn to crime to finance their drug use To

the extent that regular rave aendance and rave-related

drug use do create other life-management problems those

problems tend to be worse for younger and female ravers and

for those who use combinaons or excessive doses of drugs

The long-term eff ects of some of the drugs are not yet fully

understood but there is evidence that chronic ecstasy use

can cause permanent brain damage

So let our youth be on their guard in their own interest

Xavier Louis Bandra

Hatrsquos off to the

5 brave menSir Mantralaya fire engulfed the 4th 5th 6th and 7th floors

There was chaos and confusion In this scenario of gloom and

doom five brave men who were class IV employees refused

to be rescued ll they lowered the Naonal Flag

As the fire was spreading they were asked to leave the

building They refused to leave unless they got orders from their

seniors They were prepared to be with the flag and protect it

When orders were received from their seniorsthey lowered

the flag folded and kept it in a special room assigned for it

Hats off to these five brave men who risking their lives

stuck to their duty of safeguarding our Naonal Flag

Suggestion Municipalbirth certificateSir Recently I had gone to the BMC for geng my childrenrsquos Birth

Cerficate I got the Birth Cerficate but the name of the child

is not menoned I enquired and they told me that records of

names which are more than 15 years old cannot be included In

view of this may I request parents as soon as the child is bapsed

to write to the Municipal authories and get the birth cerficatewith the name of the child included immediately Please contact

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts

Unforgettable

Memories

Juliet08071988 ndash 08072012

He gave you as His gift to us

A partner for life said He

Then suddenly without much

warning

He decided to take you back to

Himself

You filled our lives with gladness

A dream come true were you

Happiness was our daily menuToped up with two divine little

Angels

Our lives you did for ever bless

And then came the saddest part

Good things they say never last

You were taken away to lighten

your path

And in the process broke our

hearts
