baptism.”
Because a priest is a
mediator, one who gives
faith flesh in human
actions, there is a
priesthood of the family,
in which “the truth and
love of the faith is
expressed to children
through the mother and
the father,” according to
Father Knight.
Turning outward is the
final step in spiritual
growth and is designated
“kingship” by Father
Knight.
“As Christians we are
called to transform the
world. No apostolic work
on the parish level is more
important than an
individual’s taking of the
Gospel to the world - to
family, social and civic
life. This can only be done
by the laity,” he feels.
Father Knight’s plan
for Christian growth - a
development of the roles
of a Christian as disciple,
prophet, priest and king -
is amplified in the popular
“His Way,” a book which
continues to spread like
spiritual wildfire through
the Atlanta Archdiocese
and around the country.
“What we need to do is
decide we want to live out
all five consecrations if we
wish to fulfill our total
Christian call,” concludes
Father Knight.
Judging from the
overwhelming reception he
received at the ACCW
convention, Father
Knight’s own personal
dedication to mission
served as a true-life
example of what we are
called to be.
BY TOM LENNON
NC News Service
Last year I became a
friend of the second
Incredible Hulk. This
muscular, 24-year-old
student, Jeff Martin,
weighs in at 252 pounds
and stands 6 feet 5 inches
tall.
Two years ago Jeff
gained the nickname,
“Incredible Hulk,” at a
Halloween costume party.
However, he has never
been known to crash
through a brick wall or
throw a car over a bridge.
Jeff has chosen a way
of life that calls for
gentleness and a caring
spirit. At St. Vincent de
Paul Seminary in Boynton
Beach, Fla., Jeff is
entering his third year of
priesthood studies for the
Archdiocese of Atlanta.
Unlike most of the 70
other students there, Jeff
has known for a long time
that he wanted to be a
priest. “In the second
grade I had a vivid dream,”
he says, “a vision if you
will, in which I saw myself
being ordained. Ever since
then I’ve been convinced
this is my vocation.”
During four years at
Belmont Abbey College in
Belmont, N. C., Jeff was in
a formation group of
young men who hoped to
be priests.
In those years, as
during high school, Jeff
found lots of time for
sports. An all-around
athlete, he not only threw
the iron around, but also
played football, rugby,
basketball, baseball, water
polo and went in for
boxing, wrestling and
karate. He was also in the
ROTC.
Jeff is not the quiet
type. “In high school and
college,” he says, “I never
did anything super wrong,
but I got in a lot of fights
and played some wild
pranks.”
College, however,
wasn’t all pranks. In a
national service fraternity
Jeff used his muscle to do
things like fixing up and
painting houses for
poverty-stricken old
people. For a while he
belonged to a charismatic
prayer group.
During that time a
severe leg injury suffered
in a basketball game
threatened to wreck his
plans for the priesthood.
When his friends touched
his knee and prayed for a
cure, the leg was healed in
a startling way. After an
X-ray the doctor, an
atheist could give no
explanation for the
healing. Jeff believes it was
a miracle.
Sometimes young
people wonder if studying
to be a priest is dull. A
gifted student, Jeff says
that for the most part it is
not dull.
“Sure, there are times
when it’s difficult, but
that happens when you’re
lifting weights too. You’re
pushing that iron over
your head time and again,
and you have to struggle
by yourself to keep going.
I use much the same
discipline for study and
for daily prayer and
meditation.”
Jeff likes the
comradeship he finds at
St. Vincent’s. “You joke
around a lot,” he says,
“and you talk about all
sorts of things and hear all
sorts of viewpoints.”
Jeff expresses himself
well - and becomes
impatient with those who
like to put down America
as “an imperialistic
oppressor.” He describes
himself as “a patroit, a
red-white-and-blue
American.”
As a priest for the
Archdiocese of Atlanta,
Jeff will be able to touch
people’s hearts. He looks
forward to celebrating the
sacraments and to
preaching. He also has a
deep interest in young
people and would like to
teach in high school and
also coach. But he will go
wherever God’s Spirit
leads.

ARLINGTON
PROUDLY ANNOUNCES NORTH ATLANTA’S FIRST
Chapel MAUSOLEUM
Name
Address
When completed, this
beautiful and inspiring chapel
will always be available for
memorial services or quiet
meditation. Its warm dignified
surroundings of imported
marble, rich wood paneling
and thick carpets will be softly
lighted to create a friendly and
sympathetic atmosphere for
visiting family and friends.
A magnlfieient and enduring structure built for the ages. Steel reinforced concrete is clad in handsome
granite. Crypt fronts are of imported marble.
TOMB OF CHRIST
Jesus was entombed above
ground in a crypt hewn from
rock. Christian burial above
ground is as old as Christianity
itself.
Mausoleums are memorials built for the ages and endure forever-
Above ground entombment has been the chosen way of burial for
people of all faiths since the early Christian era and in earlier ancient
times too.
Famous examples include London’s Westminster Abby- tomb of
English Royalty surrounding the Shrine of Edward the Confessor.
Many kings and queens are entombed in the Chapel of Henry the
Seventh. Westminster Abby is crowded with tombs and memorials of
famous British subjects, too.
Castel Sant’ Angelo, formerly Hadrean’s tomb, and the Tomb of the
Caetenni at Rome are other famous examples of above ground
entombment.
