Missionaries Being Replaced NEW YORK (NC) -- As the number of foreign missionaries declines, work in young churches is increasingly turned over to national clergy, Religious and lay catechists, reports the director of the Catholic Church’s worldwide missionary effort. Cardinal Agnelo Rossi, prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, said the hierarchy of many young churches is now almost entirely indigenous, though in some cases the European or American bishop has been so outstanding he remained at the request of the people.

(NC) - A moderate on doctrine and a progressive on social justice issues: those are the two most common labels applied to Archbishop John Robert Roach of St. Paul-Minneapolis, new president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops and the U.S. Catholic Conference since his election Nov. 11. But there’s more. The labels say nothing of his expertise as an administrator, involvement in Minnesota political life and support of ecumenism. Appointed archbishop in May 1975 he was the first native Minnesotan to head the archdiocese, which quickly began to reflect his influence. Within a month of his appointment as archbishop, he donned a beaded gown and ceremonial Indian headdress for a Mass to show solidarity with the state’s Native American population. The action came during the U.S. bishops’ regional bicentennial hearing in Minneapolis. His stands on social justice issues continued in his own archdiocese with a pledge for personal support and $40,000 to aid Indian ministry; with the formation of a 20-member task force to study women’s rights in the church; with establishment of an office to aid divorced and separated Catholics and with his support of the J. P. Stevens and Nestle boycotts. Archbishop Roach Despite calling it a “no-win” situation, he agreed to chair a U.S. bishops’ committee on ways to implement resolutions passed at the 1976 Detroit “Call to Action” conference on social justice. The conference, which among other actions backed married priests, the ordination of women and nuclear disarmament, was dominated by “articulate and well -prepared lobbyists,” he said. Perhaps his most controversial involvement in a social justice issue -- which became enmeshed in St. Paul city politics -- was his statement on homosexual rights, issued in early 1978 before St. Paul voters repealed the city’s homosexual rights ordinance. Archbishop Roach called homosexual rights a complex issue involving moral concerns, Johnny’s Pizza & Subs Real New York style pizza Buy it whole or by the slice “We Make Our Own Dough Daily” Open Daily 11 A.M. - Midnight; Sunday 4 P.M. - 10 P.M. 1810 Cheshire Bridge Road — 874-8304 (One Block From Pied.) 1241 Virginia Avenue — 766-3727 (Near Hartsfield Inter.

Archbishop Roach brought the church’s voice to state issues. He said in 1976 and repeated often: “It is appropriate, as a matter of fact, essential, that the church address itself to those questions which affect the dignity of people ... or affect those things which in any way touch on Gospel values in political issues.” Archbishop Roach is also considered progressive on ecumenical affairs. In 1976 he discussed the U.S. bishops’ “Statement on Catholic-Jewish Relations” with Minnesota rabbis and the Jewish community and preached at a Sabbath-eve service in a synagogue to 1,500 people. In 1979 he became the first Catholic to preach to a traditional Lutheran Reformation festival in Minnesota. He told some 4,000 Lutherans at the service: “We have gone too long as a people separated. When we look at the plea of Jesus Christ for unity, it is hard to regard our division as anything but sinful.” And in November 1980 he and the chief bishop of the American Lutheran Church shared the pulpit in a service highlighting common elements of both faiths. On matters of the Catholic faith, however, Archbishop Roach is considered moderate, a trait which gained national attention in 1978 when he rebuked a priest who surrendered his pulpit to feminist Gloria Steinem.

It enhanced life as a growing within yourself and a sharing in the life of others.” And that, indeed, is the simple gift of Christmas - a sharing in others’ lives because of Him who shared his life with us.

Over a year ago, things looked bleak for Zelma and her family. Her husband had broken his arm and couldn’t work. Her baby was sick with bronchitis and needed medical attention. Without ready cash, it was difficult to manage. A friend told them about “The Place.” It was here that they found work to tide them over and knowledge of a clinic that offered help for their child. Together, Zelma and her husband cut and hauled wood at “The Place.” Zelma later became a part-time worker, assisting in the craft shop and helping the sisters. One day, as she was balling yarn for weaving, she watched another woman working on the loom and asked if she could learn the technique. What followed was a marriage of talent and opportunity. Zelma’s handsome wall hangings, placemats and rugs now adorn the walls of “The Place” side by side with the skillful work of Sister Nancyann. Her pride in what she does is enhanced by a quiet confidence in her work. ^jb/oican f C(true of 'C(moprachc rv rl Office Hours: 1 ^ A Monday Wednesday 1 rid ay 1 /TW j 9:00 A.M. lo 1:00 P M. 2:30 P.M. to 6:30 P.M.

Bailey Smith’s reported remark that Jewish people have “funny-looking noses.” Mr. Smith is president of the Southern Baptist Convention. He made the remark in jest, he said, in a sermon at his church in Del City, Okla., near Oklahoma City, in late summer. He had stirred another controversy earlier with a remark during a religious assembly in Dallas that God does not hear Jews’ prayers. Meanwhile, despite the controversy, an Oklahoma City rabbi said Mr. Smith’s latest comment has drawn Christians and Jews closer together. The comments - which Mr. Smith said he made in late August - did not draw public attention until mid-November after a copy of the tape was obtained by a rabbi, who gave it to a reporter in Texas. Mr. Smith later said he made the remarks teasingly and that he apologized to those he offended. The news editor of the Baptist Press, Dan Martin, suggested the flap over Mr. Smith’s statement on noses was exaggerated. “I felt like it was reaching for a story on that one,” he said of the media reaction. But in a news statement Hyatt said that Mr. Smith’s statements reflected “the kind of latent anti-Semitism that exists in this nation.” “As a Catholic and a Christian I find his comments repugnant, outrageous and dangerous. They must not be allowed to go unanswered,” he said. Hyatt said Mr. Smith “in no way speaks for the Christian community as a whole. “Indeed, his attitude toward Jews, if his remarks are an indication, is not only anti-Semitic and anti-Christian as well, but it violates the spirit and teachings of Jesus,” Hyatt said.
