An ecumenical papal journey M AINZ Germany. Pope John Paul I I has made his journey into the seat of European Protestantism an ecumenical encounter, confessing "guilt" to his Evangelical counterparts but stopping short of intercommunion between Catholic and Lutheran churches. "Let us not sit in judgement on each possibility to gather around the one table of the Lord with one mind and one faith," the other, but confess our guilt to each Pope added. in a one-hour meeting said he ther," o I n his address, Pope John Paul recalled how with Protestant Church leaders. in 1510 Martin Luther had travelled to Rome "It was the first such meeting in 400 as a pilgrim in search of answers to his quesyears of church disunity. tions. And the Pope said: "Today I come to But in the Mainz meeting he told seven council members of the Evangelical (Lutheran) Church that intercommunion must wait until full unity was achieved. A bout 47 percent of West Germany's 61 million population are Protestant, predominantly Lutheran. About 45 percent of the population is Catholic. "We are called together to strive for the full unity in faith through the dialogue of truth and love," he told the Lutheran leaders. "It is only the full unity which gives us the

Bishop Edward Lohse, head of the Evangelical Church of Germany, said that his church hoped for a different approach from Catholics. "We welcome everybody to our services and do not turn away from the table of the Lord Christians of other confessions," the Bishop said. "We await with patient hope the expression of open invitation on the part of your church that we are welcome as guests and friends at

Later Pope John Paul met members of other Christian churches. He discussed the common responsibility of all Christians for the divisions and said that a "common service and witness" was needed to heal the breach. The Pope underlined the need to clarify fundamental issues first, before tackling concrete changes. The Pope and West German Protestant church leaders yesterday agreed to form a mixed ecumenical committee to study questions that divide the two churches. Protestant officials quickly welcomed the decision as an important step, although neither side expected quick results from the committee. Bishop Lohse, Chairman of the Evangelical Church had earlier expressed a hope for inter communion. The Pope also took special note of the Jewish community in Germany.

Archbishop Goody is celebrating this year the 50th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood that took place in Rome on December 21, 1930. On Monday night more than 200 priests from Perth, Bunbury and Geraldton dioceses concelebrated Mass with him in St. Columba's church, South Perth, and afterwards at a jubilee dinner Bishop Quinn made a presentation of a painting to the Archbishop Goody to mark the event.

scheduled when Orthodox Jews complained that the earlier appointment would force them to travel on the Sabbath. Pope John Paul said that the meeting had a special significance because of "the persecution and attempted elimination of Judaism in this country." But the Pope has not limited his attention merely to inter-church relations. By the time the Pope left Mainz, he had addressed a series of major issues: Global hunger, the quest for peace, Christian unity, scientific freedom, the "painful division" between East and West Germany, abortion and family rights. The visit to West Germany gave the Pope an opportunity to reiterate his stands on the world situation. "We are reaching more and more the limits of economic growth," he told workers and their families at the Mainz-Frankfurt airport. "Even if we do not want to developments will force us to be less demanding and to manage without some of the material things of life in order to share the limited goods of the earth peacefully with as.k many people as possible," he said. In Cologne, Pope John Paul issued a stern warning to governments which threaten the rights of families. "State and society bring about their own downfall if they no longer really foster and shelter marriage and the family and set other, dishonourable ways of living together on the same level with them," he told more than 300,000 people at an outdoor Mass outside Cologne. In his homily the Pope also condemned abortion and extramarital sex.

With Eric Jumper, an Air Force Academy aerodynamicist, Jackson discovered the three-dimensional relief four years ago with sophisticated imageanalyzing equipment. Jackson said that up close to the shroud a person can see only amorphous stains and can't tell to what part of the body the stains correspond. He said the iron particles could have come from the decomposition and abrading of blood stains. Hemoglobin, a protein in human blood cells,-contains iron. ‘. Father Otterbein asked: "If it were painted, where are the brush strokes?" and "How can the negative photographic image the shroud provides be explained?" Samuel Pellicori, an optical physicist at the Santa Barbara Research Institute in Goleta, Calif., who has been analyzing hundreds of microscopically magnified photographs he took of the shroud in 1978, said the image is so delicate that it had to be the result of natural chemical changes caused by a crucified body's secretions and burial oils.

MODERN CHINESE VERSION OF BIBLE The Bible has been published in a modern Chinese Version by the United Bible Societies. Today's Chinese Version Bible is the result of eight years' work by a t eam of Chinese translators. The book is the first major Chinese translation of the entire Bible since the traditional Union Version appeared in 1919. "This new translation has the potential of reaching a thousand million people", comments United Bible Societies' Translations Co-ordinator, Dr I Jin Loh, who was responsible for directing much of the work on the Today's Chinese Version. The new Bible is "a c ommon language t ranslation at a level both young and old can understand in a language all Chinese can c omprehend. Its reception has been most encouraging", Dr Loh said.

Mrs. Marie Travers (nee Ehlers) is the secretary of the Diocesan Pastoral Council. Born at Victoria Park, she was educated at St. Joachim's Primary School in that suburb and at St. Joseph's. V ictoria Square. Before her marriage to Paul Travers she was a ledger machinist in the Public Works Department. The couple have five daughters and a son ranging in age from 15 to 29 years. Mrs. Travers is a former State president of the Majellans and she was on the East Victoria Park Parish Council ( Our Lady Help of Christians Church). She is currently a member of the Friends of Royal Perth Hospital.

I find that my work as a member of the Friends of the Royal Perth Hospital, which is celebrating its 21st birthday this year, is: rewarding. Among my tasks is taking magazines and other reading matter round to patients. Women in the organisation who used to live in the country concentrate largely on country patients. They perform a number of services for them, including shopping. The hospital work is a change for me from my Other outside activities, although I find that the number of these is decreasing as the years go on. My time nowadays seems to be largely occupied in looking after a home and family and baby-sitting when called on for my four grandchildren. Still, I suppose that's what grandmothers are for. I once had ambitions to take up cakedecorating, but I think it's a bit late for that now. Another aim was to work for Stella Mans at Fremantle, but Inever got round to it and I wouldn't have the time now. This is a pity becauseIbelieve sailors do a great job and Father O'Shea at Fremantle deserves all the help he can get.

I drove past him, feeling a little guilty, so I changed my mind, went back and picked him up. He had just finished his work as a chef at a nearby restaurant and missed his bus, so I drove him to his destination. I told him 1 was a Catholic priest and we chatted about some of the people he knew in our parish. The incident set me thinking about the number of hitch-hikers there are around. There are hitchhikers in families, at work, in the Church and at the local meeting places. A hitch-hiker is a person looking for a lift to get somewhere. We have to become those people who help others get to their destinations by our love, concern and thoughtfulness. You may have a 'hitch-hiker' in your family — a younger brother or sister who wants to seek attention, but you are too busy to talk with them. You have just driven past an opportunity to put Christianity into practice. There are elements of the Good Samaritan in all of us, but because of our pre-occupations, lack of listening powers and laziness, people cannot find us and we do not want to find them. Our parish is full of "hitch-hiker" people — those who come to the

They have not got their arm out Jesus called his disciples to come indicating a need, but they want and follow Him. someone to say "hullo" "Are you Jesus calls every young person to new here?" or "welcome to our be a friend to others. parish".

Carilla and Karragullen churches are celebrating their 25th birthdays next weekend with Mass at 5 p.m. and history will be re-told at a barbecue gathering to follow the Mass. Carilla became first known as far back as 1918 when the soldier settlers were allocated blocks which were developed as orchards and vegetable gardens. Mass was said occasionally in the local hall and it was not until 1955 that the parish was established with the arrival of Italian Oblate Father Abramo. Churches were built at both Carilla and Karagullen and four Italian Ursuline Sisters opened a school with 60 pupils.

This would seem to be the way to prevent in the future a repetition of the enormous blunder the media made, taking half a sentence out of context, and reporting the Pope's remark as something 'new' and sensational.

What the Pope really said was: "Man can commit this adultery 'in the heart' also with his own wife, if he treats her only as an object to satisfy instinct", and "the riches of the perennial call to the communion of persons, the riches of deep attractiveness of masculinity of example, as Christ spoke in the same vein only and femininity" must not be reduced to "mere satisfac- by way of example. tion of the sexual need of the body."
