PAGE 7—The Georgia Bulletin, August 22,1974 FATHER HENRY GRACZ joins children at the Sts. Peter and Paul Vacation Bible School. He is wearing a vestment made by the children for a closing prayer service. Bumblebees and Buffalos “Everybody’s got to grow, bumblebees and buffalos, from the tip of your nose to your big fat toe, everybody’s got to grow.” Those were the words to a song sung by 250 boys and girls of all denominations at a special prayer service August 9, at Sts. Peter & Paul Church in Decatur. It was the closing of a week of a Vacation Bible School sponsored by the Womens Auxiliary and coordinated by Mrs. Helen Ray. Children of all ages took part in the “growing” week. Besides music taught by Father Paul Berny, classes were taught by 35 women of the church, Father Henry Gracz, Joel Konzen, St. Peter & Paul’s summer seminarian and a half-dozen teenagers, who worked as aides. Thursday was highlighted by a children’s Mass, which was attended by the children from third through fifth grades. The children reenacted a child-like version of the Parable of the Sower (Matt. 13:4-9). During the week each age group worked on different projects which were used as offerings at the Friday prayer service. Some of the offerings were candles made by the fourth and fifth graders, tissue paper flowers made by the second graders, while the first graders offered a love ball. From the four-year-old group came clay objects of every size and description, and egg carton flowers were presented by the three-year-old group. A wall mural hung above the altar. It was done by the third grade and was accompanied by banners of all sorts done by the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. Father Gracz wore a special vestment made by the children in the third grade, each of whom had autographed it, as did the fourth and fifth graders. Joel Knozen directed a skit call “The Mule Who Had No Tale,” which was presented to all the children and parents by the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. After the story was told, songs sung and offerings made, the children and their teachers were all presented with “Happy Together” certificates. Then everyone was invited to a picnic.

Cuban Embargo Unsuccessful According to USCC Official WASHINGTON (NC) - The head of the U.S. Catholic Conference’s (USCC) Latin America Division has expressed personal support for a lifting of the economic embargo against Cuba. Father Frederick McGuire said his comments are his personal views and not those of the Latin America Division. “My own feelings,” he said, “is that we have not been successful in our embargo on trade with Cuba, and it is quite evident that many Latin American countries who are not at all sympathetic with Marxism are anxious that the embargo be lifted,” he added. In speaking of the plight of political prisoners in Cuban jails, Father McGuire said: “I feel great sympathy for those suffering in Cuba.” The government of Cuban Premier Fidel Castro “should accept international laws with respect to its political prisoners,” he said. But, before making any public and official statement by the USCC on the prisoner situation, he said, “I believe it is necessary to consult with the bishops who are presently in Cuba, in order that we may act in accordance with their wishes.” There has been considerable pressure on the USCC from Cuban exile groups in the United States who are demanding that the Church tackle the prisoner issue. The USCC Committee on Social Development and World Peace recently created an ad hoe commission to study the problem. The commission will present its conclusions to the full committee at a meeting scheduled for December. The issue of an improvement of U.S. relations with Cuba has again cropped up among foreign policymakers and in Congress in this capital as a result of a report by Pat Holt, staff director of Sen. J. William Fulbright’s (D.-Ark.) Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Holt visited Cuba from June 29 to July 8 in the first such visit by an American official since 1960. He reportedly obtained reluctant approval of the visit from Secretary of State Henry Kissinger for a trip which he had been trying to make since 1966, with support from committee chairman Fulbright. In an 11-page report on his trip, Holt said: “The U.S. policy of isolating Cuba has been a failure. If this is so, then it follows that a new policy should be devised.” He added that with the massive assistance of the Soviet Union and better world prices for its export commodities, Cuba “is on the verge of making its system work - that is to say, of constructing a socialist showcase in the Western Hemisphere.” Holt said that he got the clear impression that Cubans would welcome better relations with the United States, but that this is not possible until the trade embargo is lifted. Father McGuire’s Division for Latin America had issued a public statement in June 1972 calling for an end of the embargo against Cuba because it is “cruel and ineffective.” The statement was issued in response to the defeat of a motion before the Organization of American States (OAS) that would have allowed member countries to formulate their own trade policies with Cuba. The embargo has in fact been broken by the decision of Argentina’s Peronist government to initiate sizable trade with Cuba, including the sale of American brand cars built in Argentina. Venezuela, Colombia and Costa Rica are reportedly ready to normalize relations, while Peru has already done so. Mexico never accepted the OAS’ embargo resolution. WORK DOWNTOWN? SHOP DOWNTOWN?

So many more beginnings must happen for the world’s poor —so much more needs to be done. Missionaries are giving their all, but they cannot do it alone. They need your support and your love. No, a mine exploded near the resettlement camp where this boy-refugee was found half-naked, hungry, and very much alone. Thanks to the presence of missionaries, he received immediate medical care, new clothes, and a safe place to stay. He gets one hot meal a day in his own tin can ... he’s learning to smile again too! Please begin today with a love filled sacrifice for the missions... it's a good beginning. Enclosed is my special sacrifice of $ to share in the vitally needed service of all missionaries aided by the offerings collected by the Society for the Propagation of the Faith. ® Name . | Address J City State Zip 2 gb - 8-22-74 Remember the Society for the Propagation of the Faith in your Will I I ■ I ■ I ■ ■ ■ I I I II I 11-1 I 1 T II III I f I I I I I I I I I II I I I I I I I 11 Salvation and Service are the work of , The Society for the Propagation of the Faith Most Rev.
