O. Box 2227 SAVANNAH, GA. Boating • Swimming Archery • Campfiras Craft • Songs Riflery • Games Summer School Session ELEMENTARY LEVEL Nathan says that he was an Orthodox Jew all his life. In fact, he spoke Yiddish during most of his 82 years, but began learn ing English about fifteen years age .nd now speaks it quite well, although he thinks he could do b« He has quite a library of books in Yiddish. He showed me a set of Jules Verne books— all in Yiddishl The Talmud, of course, and many other books. During our entire visit at his apartment on Long Island, he wore his black yarmulka, the skull-cap that Orthodox and some Conservative Jews always wear. I was visiting Nathan because his wife was sick in the hospital, and he was very Lene. His wife did not know that Nathan has been a Catholic for some eight years now. True, she knew that he had some Cath olic friends, even some Sisters whom he met on the Boardwalk of their summer- resort town, but if she did suspect any thing, Nathan's wife never said anything to him about it She even welcomed the Sisters into their home and loved them, but Nathan had other problems. His asthma kept Nathan from Mass when the weather was too cold, or bad, but he did manage to get to Mass occasionally. 'Tell me," he asked, ' do you think anyone would say anything ...if I wore my yarmulka in church? At Mass?" I thought about it. It never occurred to me before that this might be possible... was it possible? "Why,” I asked Nathan, "why would you want to wear your yarmulka at Mass and in church?" "Because I wore it all my life, and I feel uncomfortable if I don't wear it." What would people think... if they saw an old man wearing a black skull-cap at Mass? I don't know. "Do you think," he asked, "that a priest would give permission for me to do this?" "I don’t know,” I told him gently, "but I’ll find out." "Yes,” he said eagerly, "find out, ask one of your priests and see what he tells you." Up to this moment, I haven't asked any priest about this. While we were talking, Nathan got a phone call. His wife had just died in the hospital. He sat down, shocked, and speechless. "I’m not good at tears," he said. "I can’t cry." I found it hard to find the right words to say. Some of Nathan’s relatives would be coming over soon. In a little while, I left Nathan with his sor row, and his memories. Could Nathan wear his yarmulka in church? At Mass? It would be nice if he could, if people didn't stare and wouldn’t be too scandalized or shocked. I would be afraid that some overzealous Catholic would go up to Nathan and say, 'Take that off I Don’t you know any better than to wear a hat in church?!" I would be afraid... and yet, perhaps not.,, perhaps people would understand... I would hope they would understand... A Jewish woman I met in Cleveland who had come into the Church a few years ago, told me that she misses her Jewish cus toms, lighting the candles on Friday night for instance. Her husband is still Jewish. ''Well, why don’t you light the candles on Friday night?" I asked her. "It's in your own house, it’s something that Our Lady herself did inherhouse inNazareth, so why not? You can say the Magnificat, I suggested, or a few Hail Mary’s, or any prayer you want... perhaps even the beautiful Jewish prayers that the mother says when she lights the candles and welcomes the Sabbath." "You know” she said, "I think I willl" I think that there are some beautiful and meaningful Jewish customs which’Jews who become Catholics might still be ahle to continue, especially those observed at home. 1 myself light the Yahrzeit candle on the anniversary of my father’s death and now I will do the same for my mother on her anniversary. I place the Yahrzeit candle (it looks like a large vigil light) on the mantle in front of a beautiful Madonna and Child statue we have. And I say a Hail Mary, a Memorare, and a few private prayers for my father, and a prayer to St. Joseph. And I ask God to be merciful to my father, and welcome him into His Presence if he is not already there. I think there are some wonderful customs we Jewish Catho lics ought to perpetuate. And if you should happen to see Nathan wearing his black yarmulka in church, or at Mass, please don’t act as if he was committing a crime. Let him wear it, if it makes him feel more comfortable — with God. ST. JOSEPH HIGH SCHOOL - 320 Courtland St., N.E. Teaching Sloff—SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH MRS.

What I wish to say about our Bulletin is in a general sense at times, but this time, in a specific sense, I wish to express com ment on the articles this week* by Mr. Gary MacEoin and by Mr. Leon Paul. What I wish to say is: The point brought out con cerning the "thinking” of our young people while they are in action in the performance of their daily interests, is so very important, the MacEoin’s ar ticle should not be neglected throughout the ensuing months by our lay organizations. It should be followed up, thorough ly studied and taken seriously in our every day home life. Likewise, the article of Mr. Paul opens with reference to the worddeicide. He considers the attitudes of individuals with in our church. He wants com ments from his readers. I would like him to continue such a discussion through his columns every now and then with spe cifics. Has the word deicide been eliminated? I thought not. It is only by such writers that we can change the world to conform to our council docu ments. Sincerely, (Name withheld) TO THE EDITOR: Dear Father Kieraan: I decided to put on paper my feeling that you and Father Mayhew are performing magni ficently with the BULLETIN. It has improved in readability and general interest. I congra tulate both of you, and I know that my feeling is held by many others. Very truly yours, Louis C. Fink ADULT EDUCATION PROGRAM ST.

JOSEPH H.S. 5-Week Summer Series Of Adult Lectures The annual summer, lecture series, which is now a part of the adult education program organized by the Department of Catholic Education, this year will consist of four series of lectures. Father Leonard F.X. May hew, S.T.L. Head of the Arch diocesan Liturgical Commis sion, will present the Monday Night series on "Theology of the Liturgy”. The course will explain the theological basis of the Liturgy and show how this supports liturgical changes which have resulted from the Second Vatican Council.. On Tuesday nights Father Ellis DePriest, S.M.

Father William Calhoun, M.A., S.T.L. will conduct the Wednesday night series, en titled "God, Science, and God’s Own Word.” The series will explore modern and contem porary approaches to Revela tion from the point of view of recent scientific research and space-age values. They will analyze the Old and the New Testament Revelation against the background of such scien ces as Archeology and Anthro pology, and illustrate modern research into the sources of the Gospels. The fourth series of lectures will run on Thursday nights and will be entitled “The New Catechetics - Just How New”. Father Matthew Kemp, A.B., M. Ed, will talk on the new approach to catechetics and show its relationship to ca techetics as taught in the an cient church, the church of Au gustine, the Medieval church, and the church after the coun cil of Trent. Each series of lectures will run one night a week for five weeks. The fee for each series is $10. Admission to a single lecture will be $2.
