HOLY YEAR: 'OPERATION FERVOUR' V ATICAN CITY (NC). — Pope Paul VI has given the 1975 Holy Year the code name "Operation Fervour," calling on Christians everywhere through their fervour to make the Holy Year "an hour of grace for souls, for the Church, for the world." Speaking at a general audience on September 26, his 76th birthday, the Pope recalled that God has been helpful to men who reached out for Him. "Do Penance, for the kingdom of God is at hand," the Pope said "If we wish to make the Holy Year truly mean a phase of authentic Christian rebirth — we ought to arrange to celebrate it through a preparation of spiritual and moral energy. "We could subtitle it, in modern parlance Operation Fervour." The Holy Year, the Pope concluded, is not just a monetary ac. tion but an ongoing effort to reach the goals he has established, the renewal and reconciliation of all mankind.

"Owah," wailed a group around me like a Greek chorus. The wreck which had been our morning came back to me with a nauseating feeling. But I had to rescue her from the mob before I could do anything, about the larger problem. Tears glistened in her eyes as one little boy persisted "did you hear what she said, Sister?" "Yes I did, but why fuss, she was only telling you how she felt about going to Mass. She doesn't know enough to love or hate it yet." The children formed a group and began to share experiences. "It's too long." "I can't see unless we sit up the front." "Mummy smacks me when I wriggle." These were common expressions. "Well," I suggested, "What if we have a Mass in our classroom just for you." This suggestion was greeted with wild excitement. The next four weeks were ones of intense preparation. We worked from experiences which are a common part of their life — celebrating special occasions as members of a family. Gifts were explained as being signs of our love for each other. We then extended our discussions to the parish family and ways in which we show our love for each other and celebrate together, especially during Mass. They painted a mural and learned songs and discussed ways in which they could give themselves to God the Father at Mass. I told them the story of the last Supper in terms which they could understand — of Jesus having a party or celebration with His friends. They were spellbound. The core of the mystery was explained in very simple terms. We come as God's family to Mass to give Him a present as a sign of our love — we give Him Jesus and ourselves. And because God the Father loves us He then invites His family to come to His table to receive Jesus in Communion. The big day finally arrived with readings prepared and explained, an offertory procession of things which they could share and of course some folk hymns well rehearsed. "But you forgot the balloons," shrieked Bernard, "you can't have a celebration without balloons." Balloons were hastily dispatched to eager little hands and after much puffing and blowing, eventually they were fluttering and dancing in the breeze as they hung from the ceiling. Father arrived full of enthusiasm; he had

been tremendous during the period of preparation and had sat in on discussions with the children and really understood their level of language and concepts. The Mass was a tremendous religious experience not only for the children, but for him and me, too. The little ones sat on a mat around the table and were awe struck. They sang this time too, but it was only a way of expressing their joy at taking part in this mystery. Father then invited us to give a sign of our love for each other and as they quite spontaneously hugged each other and me too, I prayed that they would take something from this special experience which would help them through the wriggling, unable to understand and see experiences which lay ahead of them.

RELIGION

The following Pastoral Letter on Christian educat 110be en released by the bishops of W.A. and will i01 be read in all churches of the archdiocese on Sunday, 14.

During the 1971-72 two-year period, 22,629 Catholics left their home parishes and in the same period only 11,200 Catholics were listed as entering new parishes. What happened to the 11,429 missing Catholics? For 20 years there was a booming apostolate here and Catholics grew from 12,944 in 1948, to 302,802 in 1968. But in the past few years a fresh phenomenon has caused anxiety. In 1969 there were 305,793 Catholics on the books, but by 1972 there were only 301,677 despite the fact that each year adult and infant Baptisms outnumbered deaths by many thousands, and relatively few have left the country. When reporting on the situation of the Church in Taiwan, -at the August meeting here of East Asian bishops, Archbishop Stanislaus Le Kuang of Taipei, noted the following difficulties: • A shift from an agricultural to an in.

dustrial society. • Materialism, migration and urbanisation. ,41 Lack of adaptation by the Church to the present situation. • Lack of young vocations. 11 Poor instruction of those already baptised. • Low Mass attendance and indifference. From a predominantly agricultural economy, Taiwan has developed a predominantly industrial economy. There is relatively full employment and prosperity, with the favourable trade balance increasing yearly. People are moving from the rural areas to the industrial centres and the cities and many of the Catholics among them apparently lose contact with the Church in the process. • Figures published in The Record recently showed that in 1971 parishes estimated the Catholic population of the Archdiocese of Perth to be about 145,000. The Commonwealth Census figures for that year recently published now reveal that the number of people declaring themselves Catholics within Arch diocesan areas was at least 215,000.

Undoubtedly the most impressive external characteristic of the Australian Catholic Church during the past one hundred years has been its schools. Until relatively recently almost every parish had its school established even before it was possible to erect a church. This was due to a conviction that without Catholic schools the Church would lack its nursery for the faithful of the rising generation. This convicton was forcefully urged in and out of season by the bishops of Australia and is supported in our time by the powerful endorsement of the Second Vatican Council and is realized by the dedicated co-operation of thousands of religious assisted by the generous contribution of the majority of the faithful.

Necessity of Christian Education Times and methods change and change again as inevitably as a pendulum swings from side to side but the need for Christian educatioa remains. "So it is", declares the II Vatican Council, "that while the Catholic school fittingly adjusts itself to the circumstances of advancing times, it is educating its students to promote effectively the welfare of the earthly city and preparing them to serve the advancement of the reign of God. Therefore the Catholic school retains its immense importance in the circumstances of our times too." (Declar. on Christ. Ed. No. 8). No less than in the past do we, the Bishops of Western Australia, insist upon the importance of Christian education in our schools and upon the unique service given in this regard by the network of our Catholic schools. Where there are Church schools there the standards of Christian commitment and practice ought to rise; where they are wanting there inevitably will be stagnation and decline. Statistics, the cold but convincing historical distillation of human effort, prove this and history has the habit of repeating itself.

Continuation of Catholic School System In the future years our catholic schools system will expand to serve the growing catholic population. It cannot be expected that these schools will always be directed by religious orders, indeed lay directed schools have already been established. This gives the schools a new character but let there be no doubt that they will continue to have the same religious standards, ideals and instruction as in the past. Special training facilities for our own lay teachers are planned and we have great confidence that many of our young catholic teachers will wish to offer their services in catholic schools. To those who may say that lay run schools are little different from the secular state school we would point out that their plannnig, supervision and aims are most definitely under the direction of the Church Education Authorities, and we see them as much involved in the overall mission of the Church as have been our schools in the past.

Difficulties of Development Two factors, one quite tangible, the other much less so, have made the development of Catholic schools more difficult in the past two or three decades than ever before. The first is the rapid growth of the numbers of children since the war and the ever escalating cost of their education; the second, the much changed attitudes of many people, including children, to authoritative direction and to catechetical instruction which have called into question past well tried and efficient methods and have required changes which many teachers have not found easy to assimilate. Neither of these two factors has been either avoidable or necessarily a cause for apprehension. They are, however, developments which have required much painful re-adjustment.

Parental Responsibility

The teaching of religion too has become orientated ' to the personal behaviour and experience of the pupil than was rly the case. These new methods, which have so much to commend are not without an inbuilt danger when they are applied to religious lion.

These are easily available to IN* who might wonder what should be the basic content of their pa uction. We could mention "My Way to God", "The Australian Cathhi/Catechism'', "The Credo of the People of God" by Pope Paul VI, the k1. laeral Catechetical Directory" and "The Renewal of the Education of Notwithstanding these and other similar we recognize that some k oliers feel uncertain regarding the amount of doctrine suitable to children Afferent age groups and attainments. Therefore we propose issuing a K!libus as soon as possible which should aid our teachers, parents and all i s concerned with the religious education of our young people. This ipippbasis which we consider necessary upon the doctrinal content of ilkous education by no means implies criticism of those who are stied in or are experimenting with, new inductive methods of instruction. r ;ifact, under many circumstances, the newer methods have very much ocommend them. "The office of education belongs in a unique way to . because she has the responsibility of announcing the way )1iChurch Isalvation to all men, of communicating the life of Christ to those lb believe, and of assisting them with ceaseless concern so that they la grow into the fullness of that same life." (Declar. on Christ. Ed. A 3).

1-operation of Parents All the. .hopes and expectations, however, which we, the Bishops of ern Australia, repose in our schools depend largely on the help and eration of the parents and teachers of the school children. Stressing vital role of parents in the Christian education of their children, we la do no better than quote the authoritative declaration of the 11 can Council: "Since parents have conferred life on their children they lie a most solemn obligation to educate their offspring. Hence, parents ilk be acknowledged as the first and foremost educators of their children. Air role as educators is so decisive that scarcely anything can compenallt for their failure in it." (Declar. on Christ. Ed. No. 3). c lo the role of Christian parents in the education of their children does 0 toease when they have decided to send their youngsters to a Catholic 4 , 1.

Because of lack of places we have seen in the years since the war an increasing number of children unable to be accommodated in catholic schools in certain areas. This led to the development of teams of catechists to follow our children into the state schools to give them religious instruction. The amount of time permitted was small and the efforts made by these priests and lay volunteers called for much sacrifice and dedication. This, combined with weekend catechism classes, was a new field of catholic apostolate undertaken to compensate for the lack of the religious advan- ratatitude of Teachers danger tages to be found in the catholic schools.

WHAT'S BEHIND THE SUNDAY MASS LAW

Paradoxically in this era of liturgical renewal which should make the Mass more meaningful to the faithful, a recently published Gallup poll indicates that in seven years from 1964 to 1971, attendance at Mass, declined from 71 per cent to 57 per cent of Catholics in the United States. Explanations for this decline range all over the theological spectrum. On one hand it is said that the Mass is still not 'relevant,' that liturgical renewal is hardly off the ground in the average parish. On the other hand, new emphasis in theology are blamed, as by the irate pastor who wrote: "When they say, 'Jesus is a man, the Mass is a meal," why go? You can buy for a few cents, more of a meal than you can receive at Mass.

ROLE IN LIFE At the heart of any discussion of Mass attendance, however, is the basic issue: the role of the Mass in Christian life. The reason the Church teaches that Sunday Mass is a serious obligation is because participation in the Eucharist banquet is certainly an important matter for Catholic Christians. But, why is the Mass so important? A constructive theology of Mass attendance might be summarized under three principles: 1. The Mass most fully realizes the unity of Christians in the Body of Christ. 2. The Mass most adequately fulfils the priestly function of the laity. 3. The Mass involves each Christian in most perfectly glorifying the Father.

PRINCIPLES First principle: The years since Vatican II have produced an expanding social consciousness of Catholic Christians, but the social dimension of common worship seems to be declining. Yet the corporate notion of the Body of Christ demands corporate worship just as seriously as it demands social action. Jesus willed by his death to "gather into one the children of God who were scattered abroad" (Jn 11:52). Church Fathers like St. Augustine easily grasped the Mass as a "sign of unity" and "bond of love." Thomas Aquinas succintly noted: "What the sacrament immediately signifies and effects, is the unity of the Mystical Body."

• By Father DONALD McCARTHY in the New Zealand "Tablet". Father McCarthy is o faculty member of Mount St. Mary Seminary of the West in Norwood, Ohio. His article is published by arrangement with "Our Sunday Visitor". The whole thrust of Christian hope is toward final union in the "great multitude which no man could number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb" (Ap 7:9). No one expects to be alone with God in heavenBut Christ provides the Mass as an anticipation of that reality of the family of God in heaven.

"FOREGATH ER1NG" As Fr. Bernard Haring notes: "The Eucharistic celebration is the foregathering of the sacred assembly around the risen Christ, who sits on the throne at the right of the Father, and the most intimate communion with him in commemoration of his death until he comes again." The Mass does not bring us to heaven, but it really brings heaven to us. Already now we are united to Christ. The reality of Christian life in Christ clearly implies an external manifestation of union with him in the Sacramental banquet of his own legacy. The liturgical renewal has laboured mightily to communicate the importance of frequent Communion and the joyful dimension of the Mass as a 'celebration' since it commemorates not only the death but the resurrection of Jesus.

AMBIGUITY When the phrase "going to Church" is used an obvious ambiguity enters the discussions of Sunday Mass. Association and connotation immediately bring some building to mind. But the whole theology of worship centres on "Church" as the community of faithful, the "people of God." The necessity of Mass is the necessity of going to Christ in the midst of his people, whether indoors or outdoors, in Church, school hall, or private home. Therefore the "horizontal" union of Christians at Mass is the base of a privileged kind of "vertical" relationship with God. The second principle: Of a constructive theology of Mass attendance mentioned above maintained that "The Mass most adequately fulfils the priestly function of the laity."

Contemporary Catholic theology has recovered from the shock of Reformation theology which exalted priesthood of the laity at the expense of ministerial priesthood. Hence liturgical renewal has re-emphasized the priesthood of the laity. And clearly the most adequate expression of lay priesthood is found in participation in the Mass. Every Christian is ordained for priestly worship in Baptism. The Vatican Council spoke of this as a baptismal right, and duty of Christian people, the "chosen race royal priesthood, holy nation, and purchased people" (1 Pet 2:9).

GIVING THANKS "The faithful should give thanks to God; by offering the Immaculate Victim, not only through the hands of the priest," the Vatican Council says, "but also with him, they should learn to offer themselves too. "Through Christ the Mediator, they should be drawn day by day into ever closer union with God and with each other, so that finally God may be all in all." The declining Mass attendance indicates that just when the role of lay priesthood has emerged more clearly significant numbers of the laity are abandoning the role itself. Since Baptism initiates this role and Confirmation strengthens it, the catechesis of these two Sacraments offers the obvious occasion to teach the importance of Sunday Mass. "Once a priest, always a priest" has been a Catholic slogan for centuries. While those Christians who neglect Sunday Mass still maintain their Baptismal identification with the priesthood of Christ, their own dispositional unity with him is surely at least jeopardisized.

LAY PRIESTHOOD Actual functioning in the lay priesthood ordinarily implies for Catholics external participation in the Sacrifice of the Lamb. The third principle: About Mass attendance set forth above speaks about the Mass involving Christians in most perfectly glorifying the Father. The glory of God, or kapod Yahweh, a profoundly bibli-

cal notion, continues to be the ultimate meaning of the Mass. To give glory to God means a fitting response in adoring recognition of the majesty and holiness of God. To the God of kabod there must be given kabod in return. The Old Testament tells the tale of God's call for faithful worship, so often left unheeded by his chosen people. Christians have inherited from their Jewish forebears the role of giving glory to God, but as belonging to the Body of Christ. Every Mass gives kabod to the splendour of God by renewing the work of the Lamb. "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and divinity and wisdom and strength and honour and glory and blessing — To him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb, blessing and honour and glory and dominion forever and ever," (Ap. 5:12ff).

CALL TO FAITH The Vatcan Council document on liturgy pinpoints the source of much contemporary difficulty with Mass attendance: "Before men can come to the liturgy they must be called to faith and conversion." Not until "faith and conversion" have taken deep root in the Christian soul can the Mass fully involve the worshipper in the "work of glory." Yet the Mass offers Christians not only an expression of faith but contact with the saving Word of faith. As Fr. Bernard Haering says: "Here truly is the holy place! Here God works! Here the Holy One lays hold on me, He who heals, saves and sanctifies!" The aforementioned three theological principles about attendance at Mass do not immediately solve the problem of the ordinary Christian who finds that he "gets nothing out of the Mass." Even the most creative celebration of the Mass will still follow a familiar pattern and "familiarity breeds contempt." In addition, each person comes to each Mass with a differing degree of interiority and a variable awareness of the faith dimension of that particular Mass.

Father Kilian neatly analysed McDonnel l,ost the emotional satisfactionproblelnl at fis article "Liturgy i and the of Experience," ust 16, 1969).

A renewed and constructive theology of Mass attendance must? restore the lustre of this "peat of great price."

Catholic pupils win Science Talent Search awards

Dear Boys and Girls, Last week we talked about the prayers of thanks that we all can say by ourselves so many times during the clay and in so many places. These are our private personal prayers, but there are other special prayers that we say with others. A t Mass we are all together saying out loud the same words. I hope you say these prayers with a s trong voice so that others can hear you. Even when the priest prays out loud he is praying with us; our ears and our voices are very important a t Mass. The ceremony of baptism also has prayers which are said out loud by the parents and al l present, even though the tiny baby may not be able to understand. The words spoken by many people on such occasions are special to God. I am sure many of you have been to a confirmation ceremony. There you have heard the Bishop pray with a loud voice for all the people present and all the people have prayed loudly too, both with words and songs. Even when we go to the priest in order to ask God's forgiveness for our sins, there are prayers we say out loud and the prayer of the priest over us at t he end is said out loud. God can hear prayers whether we say them in our hearts or whether we say them out aloud with others. There is something particularly good about praying with our friends and hearing their voices praying with and for us. Write and tell me of some of the prayers you have said out aloud for others, at Mass, or at school. God bless you all, AUNT WIN, P.O. Box 186, Victoria Park 6100.

When Father Michael Szupper arrived to say Mass at a student complex three weeks ago he found the doors locked. Two university officials then gave him a statement ordering him not to say Mass on university property and threatening "possible arrest and legal prosecution". Father Szupper said that the students had a legitimate request for Masses at the were which dormitories more than a mile from the Newman Centre. The university would not run a shuttle service between the dormitories and the centre on Sunday mornings, and the Masses at the Newman Centre were already overcrowded
