Sr. Jane Paris —
(Continued from page 1)
basically unavailable to the people of the Hinduran mountain
communities, a non-sacramental Church has evolved.
“Delegados de la Palabra” - delegates of the Word -
celebrate scripture services in rural areas, nurturing the
“communidades de base” (base communities) we in the
States have heard so much about.
Such celebrations are held in rustic surroundings and
are “not neat or orderly,” Sister Jane said with affection.
“There is a warm, familial atmosphere” with lots of
children usually playing on a dirt floor.
Although the living conditions of the people are rough
and unsophisticated, “their attitude of prayer is
something we (in the States) don’t know enough about,”
she claimed.
In addition to training % and encouraging the
“delegados,” whose status is similar to that of the
diaconate in U.S. churches, Sister Jane disseminated
information on nutrition, hygiene and diet. She also
helped to procure funds from relief agencies for the
poorest villages.
One of the most remote of the many villages the sisters
pastored was one hour by car - and three and a half hours
by mule!
At the end of one of her journeys, Sister Jane found
21-month-old Rosie awaiting her. The smaller of a set of
twins, Rosie weighed only 11 pounds as she approached
the end of her second year. She was so weak that she
“couldn’t cry,” Jane recalled. Rosie was taken down the
mountain to the sisters’ home, a local goat provided milk
rich in butterfat, and the child thrived.
Sister Jane reacted “like a proud mother” when Rosie’s
progress was assured and she could be returned to her
family.
This interest in grass roots ministry eventually led Jane
Paris to the Honduran border, where thousands of
Savadorans fleeing the violence of their homeland were
housed in crudely assembled refugee camps.
Most refugees had escaped their country by night, living
in caves, going without food for weeks on end before
reaching the border. Refugee Catholic catechists told tales
of torture “just because they were catechists,” Sister Jane
related. “They” - who had escaped with their lives -
“were the lucky ones.”
But once across the border, she explained, safety was
not guaranteed. People were taken from the camps in
military raids, returned to El Salvador, and shot,
frequently with the complicity of the military government
of Honduras.
“When Fort Benning trains Salvadoran soldiers, this is
what we’re talking about,” she pointed out.
In addition “disappearances” abound, Sister Jane said.
“These people are in the process of getting lost” - moved
around from camp to camp.
“I found the bureaucracy (at the camps) astounding,
the organization atrocious and most of the personnel
uncooperative, unhelpful and indifferent,” Jane had
written in a newspaper account of her brief tenure at the
refugee sites. “There were great power games going on
among agencies at the expense of people’s lives. Concern
for the refugee was lost in the camp.”
During her stay in Honduras, Jane Paris did not feel
herself in personal danger, although she was only five
miles from the place where the Oklahoman missionary,
Father Stan Rother, was killed.
She is, however, concerned for her missionary friends
across the Honduran borders -- in El Salvador, Guatemala
and Nicaragua - and has strong feelings about American
involvement in Central America and the human rights
violations that prevail there.
“We can’t keep supporting regimes that are treating
people the way they are,” she stated emphatically. “We
can’t talk about Russia or Poland when we’re doing worse
- it’s blindness and hypocrisy.”
Our strongest weapon in the struggle against the
contradictions and inequities that form the backdrop of
Central American life is “keeping informed,” Sister Jane
Paris feels.
She’s doing her part - can we do ours?

People who would like family or
individual counseling now have the
opportunity to meet with counselors at
some of the parishes in the Atlanta
metropolitan area.
The counselors are working under the
auspices of Catholic Social Services,
setting up appointments during evening
hours at the parish locations. The hope is
that the outreach to parishes and the
evening hours will help people who
cannot, because of work or other
situations, make a daytime counseling
appointment or reach the Catholic Social
Services offices on West Peachtree Street.
Mary Ellen DuVarney, program
director for Family and Youth Services at
Catholic Social Services, has been
available for counseling sessions on
Wednesday evenings at Corpus Christi
parish in Stone Mountain for about a
year. The program has evolved and now
also involves five other counselors at
different locations and times. At St.
Jude’s Church in Sandy Springs, Karen
Shaw is available on Monday afternoons
and evenings and Thursday afternoons.
Van Waddy is available Monday evenings
at the Church of the Holy Spirit on
Northside Drive in Atlanta. Bilingual
counseling in Spanish is available
Thursday evenings by counselor Angel
Lopez at the offices of the Latin
American Association in
Atlanta.Counseling is available at Holy
Family parish in Marietta on Thursday
evenings with counselor Margaret Perez
and counselor Diane Huey works Friday
evenings at Holy Cross Church.
The hope is that the different parish
locations will be convenient for people in
a wide area surrounding the parishes and
anyone may make use of the services.
Individual, family and couple counseling
are available on a sliding fee basis.
Those interested in the counseling
service should call Catholic Social
Services at 881-6571. Counselors will
return calls and set up appointments for
the evening hours.

Mother Teresa Addresses Graduates
BY LIZ SCHEVTCHUK
WASHINGTON (NC) -
Mother Teresa of Calcutta,
the diminutive foundress
of the Missionaries of
Charity and minister to
the poor and dying, told
Georgetown University
graduates May 30 that
they are being sent to be a
sign of God’s love in the
world.
The 193-year-old Jesuit
university’s 1,449 new
graduates “are being sent
to proclaim the good news
of love, of peace, of joy,”
Mother Teresa told the
crowd, estimated at
10,000, filling the front
lawn of the university.
Under skies that were
alternately patched with
sun and gloomy with rain
clouds, she told the
graduates that just as Jesus
went into the world to
serve so must they.
“What you have been
given is not for you only,”
she said. The graduates
should proclaim God’s
love by the lives they live,
by the joy they share, the
joy of loving Jesus, the
1979 Nobel Peace Prize
winner said in the
commencement address.
She also cited the
importance of prayer,
which she said helps one
to have a clean heart and
to see God.
Those young people
who are in love with
someone are sharing
“God’s gift to you,” but
when contemplating
marriage should love each
other “with a clean heart”
and give to each other “a
virgin heart, a virgin
body,” merging their
hearts together in God’s,
she said.
And, she added, quoting
an American saying that
brought gentle laughter to
the audience, “Remember,
‘the family that prays
together stays together.’”
