(continued from page 4)
loneliness is proof that we can never be completely at home
in this vale of tears. “Here we have no lasting home.”
Our hearts are restless - lonely — until they rest in God.
That is why a longing for something and Someone, we
cannot even express, stalks us as we walk alone or mix
frantically at a party. Understanding loneliness and its
spiritual value to us is the answer, but it is not the end
and never will be the end of loneliness, like pain and sick
ness and death; it is part of the price and burden of being
made of soul and body.
* * *
Loneliness is intensified by the fact that so few relation
ships today are satisfactory. Man does not have time for
people individually. He seldom is left to himself. He sel
dom wants to be left alone. He is cast into a life of frantic
activity and noise. There are people around him most of
the day but there are few persons who matter and under
stand. Aloneness is to be avoided at all costs; thus the
radio and television pound a constant succession of thoughts
into his mind to save himself. Anything is apt to send lone
liness into the heart and soul — strains of a symphony,
a baby’s cry in the night, a lonely station platform, a sad
face in a crowd. In these brief encounters, these moments
when we long for something we do not know nor under
stand, we have brief glimpses of our immortality. We are
of two worlds and we can never fully be content nor com
plete here. As with pain and sadness which have a part in
loneliness, too, one day it will be no more. “And God will
wipe away every tear. . . ” and death shall be no more,
neither shall there be mourning nor pain nor loneliness.

the First Council of Nicaea:

do not say ‘We have decided,’

that their belief is apostolic,

Pope Pius IX
Pope Pius IX, affection
ately known as “Pio
Nono” called the First
Vatican Council in 1869,
which ultimately led to
the official definition of
papal infallibility. Be
cause of the deplorable
political conditions of the
time, Pope Pius IX was
forced in 1870 to suspend
the Council indefinitely;
technically, it has never
been concluded. The pon
tificate of Pilis IX span
ned 32 years, from 1846
to 1878. (NC Photos)
Says West
Must Find New
Spiritual Unity
ST. PAUL, Minn., (NC) -
Catholics, Protestants and Jews
must "try to see eye to eye’’
on human rights and basic
values to preserve western uni
ty, a moral theologian said
here.
Msgr. Richard T. Doherty,
moral theology professor at St.
Paul Seminary, said “a sort
of ecumenism is being forced
upon us by the cold war.’’
Msgr. Doherty, preaching at
the annual Red Mass of the
St. Paul archdiocese, said the
western world is waging the
cold war “under a great handi
cap because our forces are so
divided.’’
“The immense spiritual
strength of our opponents lies
in the fact that they are united
by a dogma which they have
fervently embraced,’’ he said.
He said the “essence” of
the cold war is “theological”
because “in the last analysis
it is a quarrel about the Creator
and the nature of man and
the ultimate nature of the uni
verse.”
The Red Mass was offered
by Archbishop Leo Binz of St.
Paul. In a talk after the Mass
he commented on the “profound
respect for religion and morali
ty” exhibited in the Declara
tion of Independence and the
Constitution.
He also urged the lawyers at
tending the Mass “to see in
your lives and legal practice
not only a profession but a
vocation of service to God and
to neighbor.”

ample of my wife and children
was having its effect upon me.
I could see how much their
religion helped them, especial
ly Mass and Holy Communion.
Early in 1955 Doris told me
that her pastor, Father Patrick
McElliott at St. John’s, an
nounced that he was starting
an inquiry class.
“He extended a special invi
tation to all the non-Catholic
parties in mixed marriages. No
one would be asked to commit
himself in advance and no pres
sure would be exerted. This was
too good to pass up. I went
and let myself in for the treat
of my life. In a friendly manner
Father McElliott explained how
Christ founded the Church, au
thorized it to teach in His name
and promised to be with it till
the end of time.
“The long line of popes from
St. Peter to the present pontiff
shows the Catholic Church was
in existence for 15 centuries be
fore Protestantism was born.
This clinched it for me. Along
with the rest of the class I
was received into Christ’s true
Church and made my First Holy
Communion. It was a red-letter
day in my life.
“Why had I waited so long? To
make up for lost time I joined
the Legion of Mary. We devote
several hours every week
calling at homes to recruit peo
ple for the inquiry classes. It
takes a lot of patience, effort
and shoe leather, but it’s the
best way I can show my grati
tude. We’re helping Father Mc
Elliott average over 50 converts
a year, and that’s my greatest
happiness.”
Father O’Brien will be glad
to have converts send their
names and addresses to him at
Notre Dame University, Notre
Dame, Indiana, so he may write
up their conversion stories.
Father Of Astronaut McDivitt
Says Faith Has Helped Put
His Son Where He Is Today
BY RAYMOND F. MEAGHER
JACKSON, Mich., (NC) - The
father of Air Force Capt. James
McDivitt, Jr., one of the nine
new astronauts, said here his
son’s deep faith in Christ has
helped put him where he is
today.
McDivitt, 33, a parochial
school graduate and author of
several articles for Catholic
magazines, is now at the Space
craft Center, Houston, Tex., be
ginning his training as one of
the 15 candidates for the first
flight to the moon.
His father told an interviewer
that the captain’s faith has been
basic to his entire outlook on
life.
"Jim isn’t the preachy type
and he doesn’t wear his re
ligion on his sleeve, but he
is a good Catholic,” said the
elder McDivitt, an electrical
engineer for Consumers Power
Company.
“He has a great and deep
faith in Christ and he knows
where to look for help when
he needs it,” said McDivitt.
”1 believe it is this that has
helped put him where he is
today.”
The astronaut’s father spoke
in the living room of the fami
ly’s home. A Bible lay on a
small table beside the sofa.
On the mantlepiece above the
fireplace was a small statue of
the Blessed Mother and on a
wall rested a crucifix.
Capt. McDivitt, who was bap
tized in Chicago’s Our Lady of
Mercy church, attended St.
Philomena’s grade school there
until he was 12 years of age
and the family moved to Ber
lin, Wis. There he attended
St. Stanislaus school, serving
as an altar boy in the parish
church.
In 1951, McDivitt joined the
Air Force. He was commis
sioned a second lieutenant in
1952 and sent to Korea, where
he made 145 missions in 10
months of combat.
In 1960, Capt. McDivitt en
rolled in the Air Force Experi
mental Test Pilot school at
Edward Air Force Base, Calif.
He became the first person to
take all three of the school’s
major honors--best all around
student, top academic honors
and outstanding flying ability.
Capt. McDivitt holds three
Distinguished Flying Crosses
and five Air Medals for his
service in Korea.
He has written for several
Catholic magazines, including
“Way”, a publication of
Franciscan Fathers in Califor
nia. In that magazine, he wrote:
“I know — I don’t merely
hope—that God is still in His
heaven. He’s up there--or out
there—far beyong the range of
our rockets and space probes.
And he's also with me at the
controls.”
President Tells Pope Of Hopes
That Ecumenical Council Will
Aid World Peace, Understanding
WASHINGTON, (NC) - Presi
dent Kennedy in a special mes
sage to His Holiness Pope John
XXIII has expressed his hopes
for the success of the Second
Vatican Council, particularly
that it will promote world peace.
The President told Pope John
in a letter made public by the
White House (Oct. 5):
“We hope that the council
will be able to present in clear
and persuasive language effec
tive solutions to the many pro
blems confronting all of us and,
more specifically, that its de
cisions will significantly ad
vance the cause of internation
al peace and understanding.”
President Kennedy’s letter to
the Pope was dated September
27, two weeks before the ecu
menical council’s October 11
opening in Rome.
The President said that in
the three years since Pope
John announced his intention
of convoking an ecumenical
c6unciT, millions of Ameri
cans—including many non-
Catholics—have watched “with
lively and sympathetic in
terest” the preparations for
"this extraordinarily important
council.”
Americans, he said, have also
read “with particular interest
and with genuine admiration for
your all-embracing concern for
the welfare of humanity” the
Pope’s “several inspiring
statements” on the background
