PAGE 2—The Georgia Bulletin, October 9,1980 i La Mision de Evangelizar POR SISTER THERESA AHERN En esta decada hemos de oir mucho sobre la evangelizacion. La Iglesia, que es comunion verdadera, es igual y conseeuentemente mision autentica. Su fraternidad es universal. Pero no se hace fraternidad unicamente al interior de la eomunidad eclesial. Se haee eomunidad cuando ella se identifica con el pueblo, especialmente los mas necesitados. La mision eclesial es esencialmente e vangelizadora. La evangelizacion es TESTIMONIO, ANUNCIO y EXTENSION DEL MISTERIO PASCUAL - MUERTE AL PECADO Y SUS CONSECUENCIAS. La Iglesia anuncia la salvacion por medio de Jesucristo. Y atraves de este anuncio llama a todos los hombres a una conversion compromet- iendoles a una eomunidad que es semilla del Reino. La mision de la Iglesia - su ministerio pastoral - tiene raices misioneras. Hay que traspasar las fronteras de la eomunidad eclesial y andar en tierras extranas. Cuando todo se queda dentro de la eomunidad eclesial, la Iglesia vive en decadencia; sus momentos misioneros, en cambio, son momentos de oro. La pastoral no cambia al mundo si la Iglesia no tiene contacto con el mundo. La evangelizacion incluye PENETRACION M I S I O N E R A , COMUNION, y EXPRESION CREDORA DEL MENSAJE. La penetracion misionera se puede llamar Encamacion. La Palabra y la Comunidad eclesial son engendradas en el seno del pueblo por medio de la obra del Espiritu Santo. La realidad de ese pueblo, su naturaleza humana, se encuentra con la naturaleza divina de Dios. Esta se revela y se da. Nace entonces la Iglesia repitiendo analogicamente el hecho de la encarnacion de Jesus. La evangelizacion es COMUNION. Por ella, el evangelizado hace suyo el mensaje. Es comunion vital con la person de Jesus. El Mensaje Cristino no es una doctrina sino una persona: Jesus. Y la evangelizacion es la presentacion del mundo a esta persona. La evangelizacion tambien requiere una expresion creadora del mensaje en cada epoca, para cada pueblo, y en cada cultura. El Espiritu Snato que penetro el corazon de cada persona y la realidad de cada cultura transforma a los que reciben el mensaje en la nueva comunidad de Jesus y los conduce a ser a su vez misioneros del mismo mensaje que han recibido. El circulo de la evangelizacion se completa cuando los envangelizados salen a ser los evangeliza- dores. La mision es consecuencia del amor. La comunidad cristiana es MISION, dando gratuitamente lo que ha recibido, aun cuando todavia no lo ha asimiliado- totalemnte en su propio vivir. Cuando la comunidad eclesial pone sus mejores miembros, sus posibilidades, y sus medios disponibles al servicio de la evangelizacion, crea en si misma la capacidad y el deseo de ser mas fiel y autentica. Entonces el mundo ve que Cristo vive.

C. (pictured above). Father Tighe, choosing as his texts St.Paul’s letters to the Galatians and 1 Corinthians explained that the major letters of Paul were the earliest New Testament Scriptures. In them, Paul had to deal with misconceptions and misinterpretations of the Gospel that were causing dissension and division in the first century Church. In grappling with those problems, many similar to ones we face today, Paul also developed a deeper understanding of the Gospel. It was this growth in understanding and its implications for the local churches that brought about the concept of the universal Church we call Catholic. After a concelebrated closing Eucharist, those in attendance felt blessed in several special ways. They had grown in their knowledge of Scripture and in an appreciation for its study. They had acquired a deeper respect for the richness of their Catholic Christian heritage, and had pondered the mystery of the Cross and life in the Spirit. In addition, they had taken in the witness of a tough-talking dynamo from urban New Jersey who in word and lifestyle radiated the love of the Lord. St. Thomas Aquinas A week of renewal open to the whole Archdiocese will be held at St. Thomas Aquinas Church in Alpharetta October 12-16. The renewal is designed with the family in mind, offering something for everyone, from pre-school through adult. Father David Knight, popular author of “His Way” and a leader at the Nazareth House of the Lord in Memphis, Tennessee, will direct the renewal, which has as its theme “Behold, I make all things new again.” Father Knight will deliver a message each evening after the 7:30 p.m. liturgy of the word. Babysitting will be available and film programs will be offered for school-aged children. Teenagers are encouraged to attend the renewal itself. Informal discussion sessions will be held following the 9:15 a.m. Mass during the renewal week. A nursery will be available. The evening session is planned for 7:30 - 9 p.m. For information, call 455-1017 or 993-2745. Holy Family Holy Family Church in Marietta will feature a “Focus on Parenting” as its adult education theme for the fall quarter and invites parents, teachers and all interested members of the Archdiocese to attend. The program will feature parental guidance tips designed to help children become well rounded adults. Father Pat Bishop, Director of Pastoral Ministry at St. Pius, will give some concrete suggestions in the area of moral and conscience development and decision-making. His talk, “What Can We Tell Our Children?” will be delivered at 8 p.m. on October 15 at the parish center. Speakers to follow will include, Dr. Joseph A. Richardson, Associate Dean of Georgia State University, who will discuss “Living and Growing with Teens,” on October 22. Mrs. Karen Shaw, of the Family Life Department of Catholic Social Services, will deal with “Parent Power,” in which communications development will be stressed. This program will be held October 29. Last in the series will be a Parent Drug Awareness Program to be conducted on November 19. For further information, call Judy Kugler (973-2284). St. Mary’s Children sign up parishioners for a week of renewal at St. Mary’s Church in Toccoa and Sacred Heart Church in Hartwell. Father Richard Kieran, secretary of education for the Archdiocese, directed the week of renewal Sept. 13-21 with Deacon candidate Bob Dotson and Sister Margaret Mcanoy, and lay leaders, Don and Gayle Ehlers of Toccoa and Paul and Doris Doker of Hartwell. The parishes set up babysitting services, a bookstore and went door-to-door, contacting at least 40 families of inactive Catholics in each parish, inviting them to the Week of Renewal. Morning and evening services were held daily, alternating between the two parishes. Below, Father Kieran is pictured at a service with St. Mary’s pastor, Father Patrick McCormick, right. Bauman Pleads Innocent WASHINGTON (NC) - Rep. Robert Bauman (R-Md.), who has gained national prominence for his leadership of pro-life forces in the House, pleaded innocent Oct. 3 to a charge of sexual solicitation. The charge came to light Oct. 2 in a statement in which Bauman also admitted a recent bout with alcoholism. “As a result of the help I have received from my wife and family, my priest, my doctor, and Alcoholics Anonymous, my own alcoholism is now under control and my sobriety restored,” he said. “Equally important, I have confessed my sins, as my religion requires, and I am in the state of grace and will remain so with the help of God,” added Bauman, a Catholic. According to Bauman’s attorney, Thomas M. O’Malley, Bauman is charged with unlawful sexual solicitation “addressed for the purpose of prostitution and an i m m o ral and lewd purpose.” O’Malley said the alleged offense occurred March 2, a time at which Bauman said he was going through his heaviest drinking. Bauman’s not guilty plea came during an appearance in the District of Columbia Superior Court. O’Malley said the U.S. attorney’s office has agreed to drop the sexual solicitation charge if Bauman successfully completes an alcoholism rehabilitation program. Bauman said in his statement that during his drinking crisis he turned for help to a priest-friend of 20 years, Father John Harvey, an Oblate of St. Francis deSales. “In the course of spiritual counseling by Father Harvey, he recommended that I consult a clinical psychologist who specializes in the treatment of alcoholism,” said Bauman. He said Father Harvey’s spiritual assistance had been invaluable. “I strongly emphasize that this allegation involves only my personal conduct and has nothing to do with my office or duties as a member of Congress,” said Bauman. “My drinking occurred away from my official duties and did not impair my work.” Bauman, first elected to Congress in 1973, has promoted several pieces of anti-abortion legislation in his years on Capitol Hill. He sometimes is credited with authoring the legislative rider subsequently introduced by Rep. Henry Hyde (R-Ill.) limiting federal funding of abortion to cases in which the life of the mother is endangered. ® ( 2Jbtmcan lit it c ol lutapiaciic Office Hours: Monday \ ,Q dnesday 1 rid ay 9:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. 2:30 P.M. to 6:30 P.M.

Thanks be to God.” These are the words of Betty Hutton, the blonde movie star of the 1940s and former housekeeper at St. Anthony’s Rectory, Portsmouth, R.I., who returned to Broadway recently in the hit musical “Annie.” The words are from the playbill for the former movie star who overcame depression and drugs with the help of Father Peter Maguire, pastor of the Rhode Island church where she joined the Catholic church six years ago. Father Maguire, pictured above with Miss Hutton and her t wo gra nddaughters, attended the opening night for Miss Hutton in mid-September and reported “Betty did a tremendous job. The critics came to see her and gave her rave reviews.” Father Maguire said it was the first time he had seen Miss Hutton on stage. He added, “Betty was very happy, in tears, and glad she was able to come back and redeem herself.” She wanted to “go back and show she could leave on top,” he added.

In an Oct. 4 statement, titled “A Catholic Call to Conscience,” they said, “As Roman Catholic citizens of the United States, we speak at a time of great moral urgency. “We are dismayed that the presidential campaign of 1980 is so deeply characterized by the rhetoric of militarism and the assertion that the United States must continue to lead in the production of instruments of death.” The statement recommends: - That the Friday rule of abstinence from meat be restored as a symbolic sharing of the deprivation of the world’s poor caused by the arms race; - “That our church undertake a major effort to mobilize effective opposition to modem war and weaponry on a scale at least equal to that now directed against abortion;” - That Catholics be urged not to give or obey orders to use nuclear weapons and that those now engaged in the production of these and other weapons of mass destruction be persuaded to seek other occupations; - That Catholics be advised of their rights to object conscientiously to military service and that efforts be made to extend recognition under the law to selective conscientious objection; - That Catholics be urged to consider their moral obligation with respect to taxation and support efforts to establish a world peace tax fund; -- That serious consideration be given to the implications of maintaining a lifestyle based on consumerism and oil consumption in the face of world poverty. In a reference to the involvement of evangelicals in the 1980 campaign, the statement pointed out: “All Christian communities have been touched by a new surge of evangelistic ferver and commitment which could and should lead us to reflect upon these things and open the way to that ‘entirely new attitude’ concerning war that was called for by the fathers of Vatican II. “Unfortunately, the reverse seems to be true. Today’s self-proclaimed ‘Moral Majority’ seems more disposed to support even greater steps toward the full militarization of our country and society.” NOW!
