3,000 California Youths Make Holy Year Pilgrimage
SAN FERNANDO, Calif. (NC) -
Three thousand young people came here
Nov. 10 on a Holy Year pilgrimage of
renewal and reconciliation.
On a bright California afternoon they
gathered to pray and join in Mass with
Cardinal Timothy Manning of Los
Angeles on the campus of Our Lady
Queen of Angels Seminary, ground that
was once part of the San Fernando
mission.
In preparation for the day, they had
participated in penance services in their
parishes. Some had observed a 24-hour
fast.
They sat on the grass before an
outdoor altar.
A special intention of the pilgrimage
was an increase in religious vocations,
said Father Lloyd Torgerson, chairman
of the Los Angeles archdiocesan youth
commission.
Guitars strummed as the young
people responded to the prayers intoned
by the cardinal and ministers of the
Mass.
In his homily to the thousands of
young people, the cardinal offered a
clear, simple exhortation to renewal and
reconciliation in concrete practical
ways.
“You are the new Church which is
being built on ancient foundations. One
of the cornerstones of this foundation is
Religious life. We are offering this Mass
for vocations to the Religious Life.”
The cardinal drew on the letter of St.
Paul to the Ephesians wherein four areas
are singled out where personal renewal
must find expression.
“The first of those is the area of
truth. You know from the last few years
what a network of lies has constituted
the whole Watergate scandal, lies
reinforced by oath so that the whole
fabric of our national culture almost

On Africa
LISBON, Portugal (NC) - Cardinal
Antonio Ribeiro of Lisbon said
emerging African countries “are rich in
promise” for the Church in contrast
with the Western world, which is
becoming secularized.
Cardinal Ribeiro, in a recent pastoral
letter spoke of Africa while the new
Portuguese government was completing
a “decolonization” effort there by
pulling out its last colonial troops from
Guinea-Bissau.
Last April, this nation of nine
million had a military coup by young
liberal officers against the 42-year-old
rule of conservatives. The new regime
run by moderates under Antonio de
Spinola gave way in October to a strong
leftist coalition headed by Vasco dos
Santos Goncalves, who said
“de-colonization of Portugal’s African
colonies of Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique
and Angola, as well as the Cape Verde
Islands was being swiftly completed.
These territories have a total population
of 14.6 million.
There has been a return of white
Portuguese settlers from the African
territories to this country as Portuguese
troops pulled out Oct. 31.
Cardinal Ribeiro not only praised
modern youth for its search for deeper
values than those of a consumer society,
but also praised the drive for
“Africanization of the Church” as seen
in the recent world Synod of Bishops in
Rome.

collapsed because of the lie.
“It is so timely that we look to you
and your generation for this
commitment to truth. If our country
and our religion are to have a new
spring, it must be in terms that begin
with reverence for truth.
“The second area St. Paul picks out is
anger. All across the world there are
divided nations, North and South
Ireland, North and South Korea, North
and South Vietnam, East and West
Germany, because anger which derives
from Cain and Abel has found its sway.
Forgiveness, a sense of reconciliation,
must be very much indicative of you,
just as truth is something you owe your
fellow man. We are begging you for that
sense of fraternal love that is the
peculiar mark' of your years, of your
time.”
The third area picked by Paul was
laziness, people who do not work and
are parasites on the community, the
cardinal said. Paul, he said, insists they
work not only to avoid idleness but to
help their brother in need. This
awareness of brotherly need, he added,
is a characteristic of your generation -
“though we sometimes have misgivings
in this area.”
Cleanness of speech was the fourth
area named by St. Paul. “There is in our
entertainment today a vulgarity that is
sickening” the cardinal said. “We would
hope that through your dedication to
the sanctification of your tongue and
lips by the Eucharist you would vow
never to allow an unclean word to pass
your lips. Be apostles of cleanness of
language.”
Our Lord, said the cardinal, insists on
community with Him -- He is the vine;
we are branches. In order for the vine to
be more fruitful, the vine must be
pruned by mortification and discipline,
the cardinal said.

THANKSGIVING
THE HOLY FATHER'S MISSION AID TO THE ORIENTAL CHURCH
You’ll be happier this Thanksgiving if you give
something of yourself to someone who has
nobody.
Giving belongs in Thanksgiving.
Attend Mass that morning in your parish church.
SOMEONE Take fifteen minutes to visit someone in the
WHO hospital.
HAS
NOBODY Have someone who eats alone join your family
for turkey and all the trimmings.
Better yet, feed someone who needs food.
There are millions of people in the world who
have hollow eyes and swollen stomachs because
they have no food.
We don’t see them because they’re overseas.
We know they're there, however.
Can we ignore them, let them starve?
Your $10 by itself will feed a family of refugees
for a month.
$100 will feed ten families.
$975 will give a two-acre model farm to a parish
in southern India, so that the priest can raise
his own food and teach his people better crop-
production.
$10,000 will enable Archbishop Mar Gregorios
to give a churchless village a church, school,
rectory and convent. Name the parish for your
favorite saint, in memory of your loved ones.
The Archbishop will write to you.
Giving belongs to Thanksgiving, it’s part of life.
How much will you give back to God?
