BISHOP RYAN RETIRES: ADELAIDE PRIEST NEW BISHOP

FATHER LEONARD FAULKNER (pictured) has been appointed by Pope Paul VI as the new Bishop of Townsvine, Queensland.

He replaces Bishop Hugh Ryan, who has resigned his See at the age of 79. Bishop Ryan was consecrated at Bendigo on October 18, 1938. The Bishop-Elect, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Faulkner, of Prospect. South Australia, was born in Prospect in 1926. He is the eldest of ten children. Ordained in Rome on January 1, 1950, he was the first student to be ordained from St. Francis X avier's Seminary, Magill, South Australia, and is the first bishop to come from the seminary. Other colleges attended by the Bishop-Elect were Corpus Christi College, Weribee. and Propaganda College, Rome. He was appointed the administrator of St. Francis Xavier Cathedral, Adelaide, in 1957, and held the post until the end of last year. He then became chaplain to the Lay Apostolate Liaison Committee and diocesan promoter of vocations. He has twice been diocesan Y.C.W. chaplain, a position he held at the time of his appointment. In all, he was chaplain for periods adding up to ten years. No plans are announced .about his consecration at this stage. Two of his brothers are Christian Brother:. They are Brother P. A. Faulkner, a science teacher at St. Bernard's College. West Essendon, Victoria, . and Brother G. G. Faulkner, at present in AdelaAe. Brother G. G. Faulkner is just back from Rome where he did a course in theology and mripture. He has been detailed to India, but has not been able to get a visa and is unsure where his -next posting will be.

IN a surprise move the State Government has granted financial help to independent primary schools commencing next year. P remier Brand, as Treasurer, presented the budget to the Legislative Assembly last Thursday, the last before the State general election in 1968. THE

Bishop Fulton J. Sheen Discusses . .

EING bad becomes monotonous, but trying to be good is a struggle.

LETTING oneself go is sliding down a hill; gravity does the work. Furthermore, there is a decreasing pleasure in the repetition of sensations; that •is why one has to pass from one kind of psychedelic drug to another so as to find an equal stimulus. But the business of trying to be good,

or what older writers called developing the spiritual life, is working against gravity. Because many become discouraged, we here set down some laws. Nothing is as fatal to goodness as routine, because goodness is evolutionary If it does not climb, it falls. Very often one gets into a habit of following certain exercises such as reading the Bible, or the Imitation of Christ, and saying certain prayers, all of which become as habitual as ordering the same dessert at meals. Love disappears when slavish system takes the helm. This is what happened to the elder son in the parable of the Prodigal. The former protested against the banquet,

the music and the fatted calf for his brother. In defence, he argued that he had stayed at home and kept all the commandments. That was the trouble; that was all he did. His conventional morality meant only that he was vegetating, not living; his religion never made him warm and happy, or glad at the conversion of a sinner. He took everything for granted, and to this kind of person even God can become a bore.

l F FOR GRANTED MARRIED life, too, becomes conventional. An old Vermont farmer seated on the back porch with his wife, said: "I do not think, Ellie, that in the last thirty-five years I have told you that I love you." The husband took the burdens of housework for granted, and the wife took the hardships of earning a living for granted. Rarely are there any tiny exchanges of affection; "The petty pace creeps on from day to day" as if the chase were over, and one had bagged the game. Instead of sounding new depths, there were only the same platitudes, because all stories have been told and old jokes dared not be repeated. So-called religious people often end up in the same emptiness and meaningless-

The Business Of Being Good ness as the married, especially when in neither there is deepening. But how to get out of this tattered sameness? The answer—no one ever rises to a higher love without a death to a lower one. As the plant has to die to itself to live in the animal, so the first ecstacies of marriages are only promises of richer love. They are the advance agents of heaven, telling hearts that real happiness lies ahead.

BREAK ROUTINE IN the spiritual order, one also has to break the routine; die to the monotony of certain habits, the taking on of new challenges, more acts of self-denial and, above all, a more total dedication to the poor and the afflicted. There are no big plains in the spiritual life, but only momentary clearing. It is an uphill fight; for a moment there is a levelling off, but then comes the pushing through thorns and

brambles to a higher plane. Perhaps the growth in goodness something like art. First there is the ilispiration, the flash, the intuition, ttl beautful image, but after that cornes n thousand and one automations, et huetti: counted touches of the brush to the choosing of colours related to one' another as the honeymoon to the mar. r iasgoem . Some just enjoy the emotion and the flash of goodness, but shrink from that long process ahd theof sculpturing, oii 0 f h polishing hacking chunks of selfishness. That is why dis, cipline is the inseparable companion of artistry and sanctity. Discipline alone makes discipleship. Emotional religioa is of the glands not of the heart. Few are the moments in life in which one has a sense of the presence of God but there are many when one has a sense' of His absence. Our reason alone knows more about what God is not, than what He is; that is why we say He is "time, 'space epsisr,i';uandr etahlem, less," o in like, gr the spiritual eater are the moments of uneasiness than ec.. stacy; the closer we get to the light, the more we see our failings and imperfes_ tions. Every failing, every wrong, every deviation from the due order of things, creates an uneasiness within our soul. The very emptiness, the void, the brokenness we feel on the inside, is the finger of God; even despair of one's oars worth can be creative. "Out of the depths I have cried to Thee, 0 Lord." There are treasures in darkness, did we but dig into the depths of our despair.

Parents, married friends, priests and religious too often miss the point that unmarried Christians—and those whose married life is terminated—are not embarrassed or ashamed of their single state, and are quite capable of fulfilment and stabilty i.vihout an assurance that marriage is just around the corner. The single person is above all a total person, capable of enjoying life and relationships with other persons, and is not in need of worrisome busybodies who are sometimes a great deal less secure.

One of the first things that everyone must recognise is the implication of the present trend. Recognising the reality clarifies the fact that the single person— male or female—is not an oddity, and that the rest of the married population does not have some obligation in charity, if not in justice, to do all possible to "marry her off." Unfortunately, this

NOT OUT OF PLACE

CONTRARY to popular misconception., the unmarried person is happy to socialise with married friends, is willing to take part in family social gatherings, is not inept with or afraid of children, is able to judge possible friends from phonies, and generally doesn't feel out of place unless made to. The single person often has keener insights about friendships and is less possessive or dominative. The consequence of a clearer perception is the realisation that the single person has a great deal to give of himself or herself. Being asked to do a favour, even such seemingly unromantic thing;

like baby-sitting or errand-running or typing (the usual request of clerics) is not insulting to the single person.

need. More than likely, she is better able to handle the situations she finth herself in than those who worry about her. The important thing is the ability to love, freely and responsibly,

In fact, single persons usually have a clearer perception of someone else's need but a certain reluctance to interpret themselves for fear of invading privacy. T heir generosity, independence and competence make single people an important part of the population, and challenge us to seek areas of activity where they will be able to use their talents and time for the greater good of larger numbers of people. Too often the offer of voluntary service is met with suggesions of time-killing trivia or lost in the shuffle because no one is prepared to think it out. This is the face of an awareness on the part of the federal government that many of its education and welfare programmes are doomed to failure without a large amount of voluntary service to back up the professional staff.

We should have learned by now that all the rules and regulations and extreme safeguards are useless without a strong value system. The single person who is loved and accepted by friends and relatives is no more endangered by hedonism than anyone else. The single person is also maturing by living and hy loving and preserves an ability to set the demands of the moment in the context of his or her overall plan of life. As a final note, we have to ree, that single persons are less concel'i.. about their way of life than many or their friends and relatives.

SAINT URSUL

To supplement its study and action groups, the J.O.C. convention approved a plan to survey young workers' conditions and the extent of J.O.C. influence among other labour leaders. It also decided to hire a professional editor for its national organ. "Juventud." -Juventud" has not been allowed to appear for several months because of a law reciliiring t hat all publications be directed by journalists legally registered with the government's Ministry of Information.

Innumerable legends have grown around the story of St. Ursula and her fellow countrywomen from Britain who suffered martyrdom at Cologne by the Rhine River about the year A.D. 451. Attila and his Huns were retreating from Gaul after having suffered defeat. Before crossing the Rhine they captured its most important city — Cologne — which was an important bulwark of Christianit y then and in later centuries known as the "Rome of the North." Among those they seized were Ursula and her companions. They were returning to Britain after a pilgrimage to Rome. The Roman Martyrology states that they suffered at the hands of the Huns on account of their constancy in religion and in defence of chastity. They were the first victims of the barbarians' fury. Shown is the Franciscan church and a central square in present-day Cologne which has arisen anew from the ashes of World War II. Cologne and its citizens still honour St. Ursula after the passage of over 1,100 years. by ARTHUR O'LEARY

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Christ's mission is our mission: to search out and to save what was lost. Who have we tried to seek out up to date? SCRIPTURE READING: Luke, 19: 1-10. INSTRUCTION: In the large crowd Zacchaeus, being only a little man, climbed a tree to see Our Lord pass. Jesus looked up, saw him and told him to come down. He obeyed Our Lord and together they went to Zacchaeus' house. Zacchaeus was converted: he returned what he had stolen and gave of his goods to the poor. Jesus forgave this man and his household. He. the Son of Man, had come to save people just like Zacchaeus who were lost in sin. ROSARY (One Decade Only). FINAL PRAYER AND BLESSING: As for first day.

CHRISTIAN COMMUNITIES IN MISSION LANDS UNTIL a short while ago, the Church appeared to some people as an or4a nised group of people rather closed in on itself. However, this idea has now changed somewhat, because the Council laid special stress on the aspect of spontaneous life in the Church. which leads her to openness towards all the peoples of the earth so that she may be understood and loved by them. We can say that every spiritually renewed Christian community should feel the duty of rising up in order to raise others, of sanctifying itself in order to sanctify others„ and of living the Gospel more fully in order to be more capable of spreading it among the nations. That is why the first contribution which every Christian. every neophyte, should make towards the Church's missionary work is sanctification both of himself and of the community of which he is a member.

SEVEN YEARS' PROGRESS IN YENDI MISSIONS IN 1960, when the Divine Word Missionaries, led by Father Charles Erb, took over the Yendi Mission. in NorthEastern Ghana and part of the diocese of Tamale, there were only 400 Christians in the 5.900 square miles that the Mission comprises, and the only mission buildings were a very small wooden chapel, a four-room residence and a school with 90 pupils. Today there are 3.500 Catholics and catechumens in the area and a number of new mission buildings are throbbing with activity. In 1960, the mission staff comprised only two priests. Today there are five priests and three Brothers, including the first American Divine Word Brother to take vows, while two new priests from Poland are due to arrive soon. One of the first two missionaries had soon opened a clinic on the verandah of the priests' residence—nearly a hundred mothers and their babies came there every morning for treatment for all kinds of ailments.

Competence

By FATHER W. J. FOLEY GOVERNMENT HELP The Government promised to pay the teachers if the missionaries opened schools. So, today, instead of the single mission school in 1960, Yendi mission has 23 primary and two middle schools with their 120 teachers all paid by the Government. Of the new buildings in Yendi town itself., the first was a convent for three African Sisters of the Immaculate Heart who now look after the clinic. Next came a church dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes, to hold 1,100. Then followed a two-storey rectory. In the northern part of the mission, at Saboba. St. Charles Lwanga Church is being built. Nearby St. Joseph's Technical School provides a t wo-year course in carpentry and masonry. The teaching staff, includes three laymen. two German and one African. At Sunson, further south, next to a retreat house is the St. Martin de Porres Catechists' School. which has already produced 17 qualified catechists. There are also nine chapels in various parts of the mission, five of them attached to Catholic youth centres. Recently, the Maria Goretti Girls' School was opened. The present curriculum includes sewing, knitting, embroidery, religion, English, writing, child-care and personal hygiene. Cooking and typewriting will come later. The missionaries have also provided water, a rare commodity in Northern Ghana, for 22 communities in the Mission. It should be added that before Father Erb left Rome for his new Mission in 1960, the late Archbishop Peter Sigismondi, Secretary of the Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith. gave him $500. a gift from Pope John. With it the missionary bought a film unit ( van, generator, projector and films), with which he and two of the Brothers have given over six hundred film shows throughout the Tamale diocese, where many of the people have never seen a movie-film before. As Father Erb remarks: "Our programmes have won us many friends, if not converts." This film-van, named after its donor. has become so well known that when it enters a town, the children crowd round and shout: "Pope John is here."

The infants were listening breathlessly to the story of Noah's Ark. Sister summed up her description of the Ark by saying: "And it floated on the waters." Immediately a hand shot up and a small voice enquired: "What kind of an engine did it have?" "Everyone of God's creatures has a purpose. Now what do we learn the mosquito?" from asked the teacher. "How easy it is to be stung," said a voice. One day a man's hat blew off and, before he could recover it, a dog had chewed off the rim. The man was furious, but the woman who owned the dog said calmly: "It serves you right." "Oh," said the man, "is that your attitude?" "No, dear." said the woman, "it was your 'at 'e chewed."

(d)--In the part taken by families as such in the life of the Church community? Generally speaking, no, but in some parishes—a few—yes. Part of the problem here is that Catholic family-type movements are fairly new in Australia. (e) — In relations between youth and adults in parish life? Adults who are involved in some apostolic work have more -understanding and greater tolerance towards youth, since they Stave more opportunity to discover the good being done by young people involved in the apostolate. (f)—In the welcome extended to strangers (migrant workers, students, tourists, etc.)?

(b)—A greater awareness of the place of the diocese in the life of the Church? No; the diocese is still seen as a basic unit only vaguely associated with other dioceses. (c)—A greater awareness of the role of the Bishop and the relations which should exist between pastor and faithful? To a very small extent, yes. 2 — Have there been experiments in dialogue, in your country, of the type of meetings organised by the bishops in some dioceses before, during or after the Council, in order to consult the faithful on matters dealt with by the Council? With what results? What difficulties were encountered? This question is not clear. If it means have the bishops sought dialogue as a post-conciliar policy in order to learn from the witness of the layman, the answer is no, except in unusual cases. If it means do the bishops have a greater sense of the role of the laity and the need to assist the laity in their apostolate, the answer is yes. Many laity feel that since the Council the bishops will not only allow them more initiative but give them more support. 3(a) —Have any lay people, men and women, already been called upon to sit on the pastoral councils in your country? Pastoral Councils are in the process of being formed in several dioceses and where they have already been formed laity sit on them. Where a Lay Apostolate Liaison Committee exists, mutual help follows, especially when overlapping of functions can be reduced. (b) — Have the results been positive (to the extent to which you can form an opinion on the matter)? Yes. (c)—What has been the reaction of the faithful generally to these new structures? Extremely favourable, but their function is often misunderstood as being primarily concerned with material assistance. (d) —What relationships have been established between these new bodies and the lay movements? It is too soon to answer this question fairly. In some cases, the lay movements as such are represented on the pastoral council. (e)—Have there been any new undertakings in the field of socioreligious research? Only occasional studies by individuals. (f)—Has the collaboration of lay people been involved? Only as required by the individual undertaking the study. 4—Are there lay people working in the Diocesan Chancery Office? The term 'Chancery Office' is not used by Australin laity. There are laity employed in positions of responsibility in dioceses, usually in connection with education or the lay apostolate.

C—The Universal Church

1(a)—In your experience, have the laity since the Council a deeper sense of the mystery of the Church? Those few who have made a specialised theological study of the decrees. especially "Lumen Gentium." have this sense.

especially among older people. (c)—A greater awareness of the fact that all members of the Church are co-responsible in bringing Christ's message to the world? To some extent, but not in a manner which has materially affected the behaviour of the laity as a whole. Those who are members of adult and youth apostolic groups do have an increasing awareness of their responsibility in this matter. 2—Have the Council directives concerning the missionary activity and collaboration of the laity been given any concrete expression in new ways? No; the decree on the Mission ary Activity of the Church is not well known. But the Council seems to have given much greater impetus to the lay missionary movement. (a)—In the field of lay missionary activity? Yes, especially in the case of individuals, who may perhaps have been interested in this field by virtue of an interest in the missions apart from the Council. (b) —In mutual help between one diocese and another? No, although the 'Project Compassion" appeal is on a national basis. (c)—In mutual help between lay groups in more prosperous c ountries and those in developing countries? Whilst lay groups are becoming more aware of this problem, this awareness seems to spring from factors other than the Council. There is little activity evident to give effect to this awareness. (d)—In the welcome extended to Christians (students, workers, etc.) coming from mission territories? Asian students are in most dioceses welcomed, but not fully incorporated into the life of the Australian Churches. Asian workers do not come to Australia. (e)—In information about the the missions? No. Australia has for many years been conscious of Pacific missions: the effect of the Council would be limited to heightening this awareness. (f)—In contacts with believers of other religions? With unbelievers? Yes. The Council has given rise to greater charity and tolerance towards other Christians and nonbelievers as well as among Catholics themseves.

There is, in particular, a ten. dency to seek a vision of a total wlahyeraeploas3,trolbaotdeieseffort. r Further were se up p clerical initiative, the initiative now seems to be passing more to the laity themselves. Relationships between lay apostolate bodies in Australia have always been very good, since the Council they have if anything improved. Use of the more general term "Lay Apostolate," and the consequent de-emphasising of the words "Catholic Action" has been welcomed, for the words are offensive to non-Catholics in Australia, and presumably in other English-speaking lands. (b) — Have new organisations been set up (for example, family or professional groups) or have there been changes in structure, method or field of activity, as a result of the orientation given by the Council? Lay organisations have increased, but whether as a result of the Council or not it is difficult to say; see answer in the preceding paragraph. The encouragement given by the Council to lay groups already in existence to reform themselves and to expand their activities cannot be exaggerated. No doubt there has been some change in the activity of almost every lay group as a result of the ideas in the Council documents, but it would be impracticable to give a detailed itemisation. 3(a)—Have there been any de. velopments in collaboration and moreoreco-ordination between m legitimatewith n merits, due irteys?pect for their

feel at a loss discussing the Bible with a Protestant. They consequently shy away from discussing theo!ogy with them. 4—What do you think has begli underlying the attempts made at ecumen'cal dialogue and collaboration? A recognition that it was unreal to regard as a matter of practice most Protestants as people in bad faith , seems to be the most common factor. In various cases, there are other causes which are generally not profoundly theological in origin. The fact that Australia is a "pluralist democracy" with, especially in recent years, a continual influx of migrants, has led to a growth in the understanding of views of people coming from different traditions. The Australian Catholic likes and respects his Protestant neighbour, but tends to have little respect for his religious views, which ordinarily are part-theistit,. part-agnostic. but primarily secularist; in the rare cases of the t heologically strong Protestant or Jew. the Catholic will treat hia views with respect, even with reverence. 5—Have you any suggestions to make for the future in th:s field? It would seem that the lines of development already being followed will need to be developed before there is any improvement in this field. Because of Australia's position in relation to Asia, this problem should be given priority. 6—Have the changed attitudes and the concrete developments in the Ecumenical field had any wider repercussions in the attitude. adopted by Catholic lay people? Yes, because of the loss of the sense that Catholics are, by virtue of their Catholicism, a more virtuous people.
