TO CONFRONT MAJOR ISSUES
Episcopal Bishop Calls For Meeting
Of All Christians Under Pope Paul
SAN FRANCISCO (RNS) -
Episcopal Bishop C. Kilmer
Myers of California has called for
an “extraordinary” meeting of all
Christians this summer in Rome
under the leadership of Pope Paul
VI to “develop a base of
Christian power that the national
communities will heed” in
approaching the major issues
confronting mankind.
St. Anthony’s
Sets 1 A.M.
Sunday Mass
St. Anthony’s Church (West
End) will have a Sunday 1 a.m.
Mass for six weeks to see if an
early morning Mass is needed in
Atlanta.
The first early Mass will be
said Sunday, April 21. Father R.
Donald Kieman, pastor, said the
Masses will continue and an
effort will be made to see what is
the most suitable time for an
early Sunday morning Mass.
Sacred Heart
Men To Meet
Perfection of a parish
organization for men will be
planned by members of the Holy
Name Society of Sacred Heart
Church after a 7:30 Mass,April
18 in the lower church.
Under discussion will be
activities of the Parish Council,
the Board of Education and the
finance committee. Officers
recently elected have been
announced by the pastor, Father
John Mulroy: President W. D.
Rieker; Vice President Louis
Fink; Treasurer Millard Norris,
Secretary W. F. Crowell;
Publicity Chairman Craddock
Goins. Father Mulroy, spiritual
director, said the immediate need
is for lectors, ushers, greeters,
choir members, program
chairman and hospital visitors.
Impelled, he said, by the
killing of Dr. Martin Luther King,
Jr., Bishop Myers proposed that
both the worldwide Lambeth
Conference of Anglican Bishops
in London (July 25-Aug. 25) and
the World Council of Churches’
Fourth Assembly in Uppsala
(July 4-20) be rescheduled “to
meet together at Rome with the
pontiff and bishops of the
Roman Catholic Church,” with
Paul VI to be recognized as “first
among equals.”
THE EPISCOPAL Church
leader said the inspiration for his
suggestion was rooted in Dr.
King’s “passion for the
reunification of the human
family” and his own conviction
that the human family faces
“four, at least four, major
problems - war, poverty, racism
and unbridled technology.”
He explained that the
motiviation for his appeal came
on the night of Dr. King’s
assassination.
“I listened again to his words
at the great March on Washington
in 1965: ‘I Have a Dream.’
“Later that night I, too, had a
dream -- one deeply rooted in his
passion for the reunification of
the human family. My dream
took the form of ‘An Open <i
Letter to the Church at
Eastertide.’ ”
Enumerating the four major
issues he believes face the world
today, Bishop Myers stated:
“Besides these problems the
ideological questions are
relatively unimportant. The
essential struggle no longer is
between capitalism and
communism; rather, it is between
the have nations and the have-not
nations; it is between the white
race and the non-white races; it is
between the technologically
advanced communities and the
under-developed communities.
“THERE IS also the
frightening problem internal to
the technologically advanced
nations which has to do with air,
water, sewer pollution and the
refinement of weaponry capable
of destroying the whole human
race; in such nations the danger
that the machine may rule man is
clearly present.”
South Deanery Sets April 28 Meet
St. John The Evangelist
Church in Hapeville will host the
South Deanery Meeting of the
Archdiocesen Council of Catholic
Women on Sunday, April 28, at

of the South Deanery, which
includes some 10 neighboring
parishes.
The program for the meeting
will be a panel discussion dealing
with teen-agers questions and
problems concerning the use of
alcohol. It is entitled, “Can We
Answer?” Participating on the
panel are Charles Johnson, a
practicing physician of internal
medicine; Bob Ross, who has

Prop. - 4015 Peachtree Road, N. E. 237-6379
