CHARISMATIC GROWTH WELCOMED PERTH, WA: JANUARY 28 - FEBRUARY 3, 1982 TELEPHONE: (09) 328 1388

The phenomenon of the extraordinary growth of the Charismatic Movement over the past 20 years took most } people in the Church by surprise but it should not have NUMBER: 2276 done so, Archbishop Goody told a near -capacity crowd in PRICE: 30 cents the Perth Concert Hall at the opening of the three-day Charismatic conference. The archbishop said: "Being wise in retrospect, the spirituality of the Charismatic Movement clearly fills a human need felt by many in this exceedingly secular and materialistic society in which we live.

•

" Another, but aberrant, sign of the same need led to the dabbling in Eastern esoteric mysticism by large numbers during the same period. "By God's grace, there were some — initially in the United States of America — who felt this need and were ready and able to turn it towards Jesus Christ and, undoubtedly led by his Holy Spirit, established Catholic Charismatic Prayer groups in the 1960's. "These burgeoned enormously and today encompass many hundreds of thousands, even millions in almost every country of the world today.

HAVE YOUR SAY

Record A USTRALIA'S BLESSINGS? Australia Day comes and goes each year in a faint mist of apathy through which sporting, political and other personalities are asked to say a few words to boost the national spirit. The blame for the apathy could be laid on Captain Cook who ought not to have landed during the summer doldrums which make f lag raising and drum thumping sound like hard work. He in turn would pass the problem of the n ational lethargy to the inventor of the long weekend which is becoming longer and longer and which seems to be the principal i ncentive to celebrate anything. On the surface of it the country's national day would seem to be one of those paraspiritual causes ideally suited for dumping in t he lap of the churches which presumably have nothing else to pray or preach about. However, the urge to link the earthy struggle of a nation or state with the divine plan is not necessarily in harmony with prayer that is built around the Incarnation and Redemption of the Risen Jesus Christ. Hopes are expressed from time to time that Australia could figure more prominently in the liturgy at this time or on the Feast of Our Lady Help of Christians, but the question remains that on a national day we are not sure just what we are praying about. Saint Paul, in fact, would appear to have been thinking on a different line. He found that national frontiers and divisions were the opposite of what should happen in the Church. There would be no longer Greek or Roman, all would be one in Christ, he said. Yet the Church has flourished much because of national impetus, and the sometimes mixed blessing of national expansion. R ome was both the persecutor and carrier of the Church; missionaries found amazing new paths through the expanding British Empire a nd the oppressions of Ireland have proved to be a great missionary blessing to the Church overseas. Thoughts and aspirations on the occasion of our national day are rather too dominated by ruminations about the Aboriginal question, much as it is important that we come to grips with the problem as it is today and not merely indulge our guilt with verbal bloodletting. It could be reasonably asked whether a ny one group of people has a God given right to be anywhere, — including Abraham's descendants who muscled into Canaan. Australia is not just about the First Fleeters landing in Botany Bay. It is also about the wave after wave of migrants who have come to these shores for two centuries — most, thank God, by invitation, others like Vietnamese, Poles and World War II exiles, as r efugees pleading for help. The true prayer for Australia Day is for a grace of thanksgiving, to appreciate that the Hand of God has spared this country from many of the physical and aggressive disasters that are still tearing other countries apart. If we truly believe all mankind, and not just ourselves, to be God's family we must be vigilant before shutting our minds, and our doors and pockets to any person seeking entry, including the unborn.

It was said that the southern European groups lived self-contained lives in shanty towns, refusing to have any truck with the Australians or treating them with condescension while taking their jobs.

"Most of them were young men," John says, "and many of them were newcomers from the Eastern States. "Their actions soured for many a long day the great spirit of friendliness that had characterised the Goldfields." On his return to Perth John joined the finance section of the newspaper. After he had completed a correspondence course in accountancy, he was made finance editor in 1948 — a position he occupied with distinction until his retirement in 1970. He can look back on a career that included his being in charge of the parliamentary press gallery during the war when he was manpowered out of the army, developing close rapport with the government of the day and men who were to become the State's leaders, the encomiums he earned from the Senate select committee "as one of the few perceptive critics during the Poseidon boom," articles he wrote accurately predicting the iron ore boom when the subject was ignored by all others, and a host of other journalistic triumphs. But the self-effacing septuagenerian's interests now are confined largely to his family and his church activities. ,

YOUTH FORUM

Course brought purpose! others. Course co-ordinators Sr Mary Berry and Sr Assumpta welcomed the idea of young people attending. The students found that the different units

The Maranatha course, a pastoral care course initially designed for religious brothers and sisters, was opened to lay people for the first time at the beginning of 1981. Colin Alica, Catholic Parish Youth movement full time worker, Mi-Mi Johnson, then full time worker for YCW and Ema Dos Santos Hospital kitchen assistant YCW Cloverdale, were the first young people to take part in the course. After a discussion with a priest about the need for lay people to be responsive to God's call to lay ministry, and hearing about the course from him these young people were encouraged to attend the 12 month Maranatha course. Lectures were held 9-3 on Friday and Monday. They agree that there is a need for training and knowledge in order to s hare faith with

enabled them to be in touch with various aspects of the Church's mission. Ministerial Spirituality revealed that being active can be fruitful if it grows out of daily

encounter with Our Lord. A training in how to share the Good News by witness and teaching came in Faith Education. Liturgy allowed them to

appreciate the rituals of the Mass, and they saw liturgy as a dynamic communication of community with God. Pastoral Care and Psychology allowed

for self-discovery as well as being open to other peoples' pain. Church history gave' an appreciation of where we have come from, where we are now and where we are going as a church.

The course allowed young and old to be present to each other, to share hopes, experiences, pains, faith and love. It brought unity and purpose as baptised members of Christ's Body. "I took on the Marantha course sure of its need but unsure of my role in it," Ema Dos Santos said. "I enjoyed the sense of d oing something active for God and as the year went by Irealised that it was easier for me to be active rather than spend time with God who loves and wants to heal me," she added. "I discovered a deeper awareness of working for God rather than doing God's work," Mi-Mi Johnson said. She believes there are many areas in which to serve God and one's brothers and sisters.

Accidents to older children who have been injured from falls from windows usually result from horse-play on beds or furniture placed close to windows, which bread and the child falls through. The problem is not limited to children living in flats and two-storey homes. During the summer months, when homes of all types have windows open, this tragic accident is as likely to happen in a suburban or rural home as in the city. A child does not have to fall far onto concrete to receive serious injuries.

What you can do.

There are several things you can do to keep the tragedy of a window fall from your home. * If you must open windows in a room where a small child will be sleeping or playing, open them not more than four or five inches. If you fear the child can raise the window higher, you can secure it at the desired height with a "window burglar lock," available at hardware stores. You can also create your own device, such as a piece of broomstick or wood placed between the top of the raised window and the top of the window frame. For windows that are opened with the turning of a handle, it is a good idea simply to remove the handle and screw it back on only when you need to adjust the window.

The Australasian Oaks, at Adelaide's Morphetville Race-course, will be run over a distance of 2,000 metres. All fillies will carry 55 kg, with the field limited to 18 starters. The first three place winners in the VRC and SAJC Oaks and Derbies, The West Australian and Australian Derbies, and the New Zealand 1,000 Guineas and Derby will automatically be accepted into the race if the horses nominate. The telecast will include a multi camera presentation of the Daily Doubles on each day of the carnival, plus a comprehensive look at events leading up to the main races. The two races in Seven's exclusive coverage include the $50,700 Bloodhorse Breeders Stakes and the $50,000 Queen of the South Stakes.
