Character of Church When we look at the Church, the Archbishop said, "We are in the presence of a fact whieh simultaneously manifests two aspects: one of identity, preser­ vation, coherence, sharing of life, fidelity, presence the Church as symbolized in the endurance of stone; and a second aspect: movement, transmis­ sion, projection in time and space, expansion, dynamism, eschatological hope-the Church as symbolized in the moving, living growing body of Christ."

C-entenary of Lourdes Coincides

With Unity Octave 50th Jubilee

GARRISON (NC) -' By "hap­ py coincidence". the centenary of the apparitions of the Blessed Mother at Lourdes and the gold­ en jubilee of the Chair of Unity Octave are observ~d this year, it was pointed out by Father Titus Cranny, S.A., of Graymoor Monastery here.

Father Cranny is national di­ rector of the Octave, observed annually from Jan. 18 to 25. The eight days of prayer are for the . intention of the union of Chris­ tendom and for the ·conversion of Jews and non-believers.

"It is singularly fitting that the two anniversaries should coincide for reunion will be realized principally through the prayers and love of Our Lady whom St. Augustine called Mother of Unity," Father Cran­ ny said.

He . pointed out th'at Father­ Paul James Francis, founder of the Octave, had a marked devo­ tion the Blessed Mother, es­ pecially as the patroness of Christian unity. . Father Paul founded the Octave while' his community, the Society of the Atonement, were membe"rs of the Anglican church. A '·year after he founded the prayer movement, his community in a ~dy was received into the Church.

Guardian or Unity, "Our Lady has ever been the leader and guide· in bringil).g lIOuls to God," Father' Cranny said. "Pope Leo XIII <:alled her 'the most zealous guardian of unity.' St. Pius X said that . there is no surer or easier way of uniting men with Christ than Mary.' Father Paul said that the prayer of Christ 'that all may be one' was so often repeated by Our Lady. Indeed the military victories of the past -- at Bel­ grade in 1456, Lepanto in 1571 or Vienna in 1683 - :. are expres­ sions of the power of Mary in overcoming the forces of evil and of uniting souls with God." Father Cranny said that as the Mother of all men it is the func­ tion of the Blessed Mother to unite men with her Son and added .it is a "discredit to her

to

that some feel that Marian devo­ tion is an obstacle to reunion."

Age of Mary The Catholic knows the charge that the Blessed Mother impedes reunion is not true, Father Cranny said. He observed: "It is a mother's duty to keep her children together; or, if the~' are separated, to bring them to­ gether again. For as love of Mary increases so will the apost-' olate of unity. It has often been said that our era is the Age 'of Mary. Surely; at least it is the beginning of this age of which . the saints have spoken.".

Father Cranny said that as a development of the Unity Oc­ tave, the Church has blessed the League of Prayer for Unity at the Graymoor Monastery. here.

He explained: "It is a pious union of prayer and good works for unity under the patronage of Our Lady of the Atonement, whose feast is July 9. It is the . wish of the Holy Father, ex­ pressed a short while ago. that the Octave be as widely observed as possible and that" the Unity League under Our' Lady in­ crease in membership day by day. For devotion to Mary is the unfailing means of promo­ ting the cause of Christian unity."

LONDON, (NC) - A Trap'" pist monk has left here to visit the United States, on a tour dur-" ing which he hopes to interest American retailers in perfume made by the monks of his mon­ astery. .

Father Eugene Boylan, O. C.' s. 0., prior of the Trappist Ab~ bey of Our Lady and St. Samson, on Caldey Island off the W.elsh' coast, took with him' hundreds of sa,mples of the perfume, made from lavender and wild flowers.

After being harassed by the lack of money for the operation of the mona!iterY,'the monks hit upon the idea of perfume, using the wild flowers and lavender, which gro'w profusely on the island.

Father Boylan will spend six weeks in the U. S. He says, if he is able to sign enough con­ tracts fO! the perfume, the pro­ ceeds will be a substantial help towards operating the monastery this coming y.ear.

The~ are the judges of the community, the arbiters wh. decide that this was rig'ht and that was .wrong. They take particu­ lar pains to make life unpleasant for thei, pastor.

If he asks for money, he Is charged with worldliness; if his church falls to pieces. he is a poor financier.

If he has bazaars. he is bleeding the people; if he doesn't, there is no social life in the parish.

If he preaches more than five minutes. he is long-winded; if his sermon is short, he hasn't prepared for it.

If he calls on his parishioners, he is considered a bore; if he .oesn't, he is high-hatted.

If he gesticulates during his sermon, he is trying to be dramatic; if he confines himself to the beatitudes, he is condemned for his platitudes.

If he owns a car, he is too worldly; if he doesn't, he alwayS arrives too late on sick calls.

If he gives advice in the confessional, he is consuming time; If he doesn't, he is not a good director.

If he starts Ma'ss on time, his watch is fast; if he starts late, he is holding back the congregation.

The critics keep the pastor'» hands full - of everything except money.

Advises Worried .Parents Abnormal Ch'ild Is Blessing

By Rev. John L. Thomas, S. J:

St. Louis University

We've looked forward to having a large family, but now our youngest child shows signs of being seriously re­ Uirded mentally. The doctor says it's too earl~ to pJ;edict the full extent of the trouble. My wife is heartbrQken and st;rted worrying about h-av- cialist, since the ordinary physi­ . th· ch 'ld 'I don't cian cannot ,be expected to give mg ano er ~. advice in so specialized a field. know what to thmk. Why do You ask why such things hap':' such things happen. pen. You really mean, why does

* *" *

Few things cause parents mor~ suffering than the discovery of soine serious abnormality in their children.

The child is an extension 0 f the m s "e I ves.

They look for­

ward with pride to its normal d eve lopment.

The discovery that their fond hopes will not be realized is both painful and humiliating.

Almost unconsciously they ask why this should happen to them.

Is it the result of heredity? Have they somehow fail~d in the pas~?

What will others think? Why IS God sending them this cross?

Will they have to put the child hi an institution? Will a specialist be able to help?

These are normal questions under the circumstances. No , doubt, you and your wife have , already raised them. Your hearts are heavy. You. are probably more puzzled and worried than you want to admit. What should you do?

Requires Loving Care First, you must exa!'fline your own attitudes and feelings. This child, like your other children, is a blessing f.rom God, an immortal soul CO,nfided to your loving care and destined for happiness in Heaven. The Creator knows that it will require special protection and care, but it is His child as well as yours. Accept it humbly and gratefully from His hands as a sacred trust confided to you..

Hence it would be unbecoming as Christians to feel ashamed of this gift. Neither should you indulge in the strange superstition that God is punishing you.

The child is a blessing; only an unchristian attitude can make it appear anything else.

Opp~rtunity to Develop Second, you must be practical and realistic. There is nothing to be gained 'by running to a dozen different specialists. Put, the child under the care of a competent one ~nd follow his advice.

He will tell you what to expect and how best to serve the child's needs.

Later on, special training may ~ required.

Unfortunately, some parents of retarded children, either through false pride or poor judgment, do not give them the opportunity to develop their full potential. Such parents would be surprised to see the , gains their children would make

God permit them to happen, don't you? Parents ask the same question at the death of a child.

The answer is the same: We do not know. the mind 'o( God. His ways are not our ways:. But the Christian knows that "for those who love God;, all things work unto good."

New Contraception Methods Im,moral

NEW YORK (HC) - U~, S. troops abroad are "very keenly aware of their responsibility to, their country and their people at home," His Eminence Francis Cardinal Spellman said on his return h "le after a 25,000-mile trip by air.

After landing at Idlewild air­ port here, the. Archbishop of New York said he had found troop morale "excellent" when he visited military installations in Anchorage, Alaska; Japan, Korea, Okinawa, Formosa, the Philippines and Germany.

As Military Vicar for Catholic. in the U. S. Armed Forces, the Cardinal had made his seventh annual Christmas trip to visit with American troops in the Pacific area.

Cardinal Spellman, who stopped over in Rome on his re­ turn journey, said he found His' Holiness Pope Pius XII in "won­ derful health."

Newsmen informed the Car­ dil'!al that while he was off on his trip he was called a "capital­ ist spy" by the communist press.

"Goody!" the Cardinal re­ sponded with a laugh. "I will have to call on Gen. McAuliffe foran answer to that."

The Cardinal referred to Gen. Anthony C. McAuliffe, who, while in comman<l of surrounded U. S. forces at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II, responded "Nuts" to a German demand for surrender.

Newsmen asked about a recent suggestion from Moscow to send an Ambassador to the Holy See. The Cardinal replied: "Certainly conditions now are not favorable for a rapprochement between Moscow and the 'Holy See."

Pope's Gift to U.N. GENEVA (NC)-His Holiness Pope Pius xn has contributed $2,000 to the United Nations Refugee Fund, it was announced here by Auguste R. Lindt, UN High Commissioner for Refugees.

Mr. Lindt said that the Pope had asked that the donation be used to help refugees from com­ munist China now stranded in Hong Kong.

Harvard Prize CAMBRIDGE (NC) - Presi­ dent Nathan M. Pusey of Har­ vard University has announced that a $~,OOO prize will be awarded to the author of the best book on the history of reli­ gion to be accepted and' pub­ lished by the Harvard University Press qUl'ing the next four years.

Rocket Warning WASHINGTON (NC) -Ama­ teur rocketeers have been warned here' not to be carried away by their experiments, be­ cause these 'rockets eould be bombs.

A joint statement signed by all nine faculty. members of the departments' of, chemistry and chemical engineering of the Catholic University of America sounded a warning to youthful investigators in the fi~ld of sci­ epce and to their teachers.

Church Support

A subject of conversation in many parishes around this time of year is the parish report. In many places it was read last Sunday. The pastor gave the congregation the figures on parish income and expenditures.

It might be remarked in passing that never is there a more attentive group of listeners than when the report is read. And woe be to the poor person who lets out an undisciplined cough just as some particularly vital figurl;ls are given. , Just as man is made up of body and soul, so the Church is physical aild spiritual also. A man's soul-is the more important part of his nature, but he must eat and' work and live and take a productive place in society. The body cannot be disregarded.

The Church is above all an organism, a continuation. of Christ in th'e world. It is the Mystical Body/of Christ and all its members are united to Christ; the Vine~ -by a real bond.

But the Church is an organization, too. It has its material side. It requires buildings: churches, schools, convents, rectories, hospitals, homes for the young and the aged, welfare buildings, special schools.

The Church is pependent upon her members to pro­ vide the material assets to carryon the w.brk of, Christ.

It is an all-inclusive work-religious, soCial, educational.

It is car~ied on by the priests and brothers and sisters who' have given not their means but their lives to God. It is supported by an active Catholic laity taking an intelligent vital role in the life of the Church. 'And it is a work that needs funds. , It was the custom of the Hebrews to give one-tenth of their income for the support of religion. This custom of tithing is still carried on amolJg some religious groups today. " It would be interesting to see how JPany per$ons give not one-tenth but even one-hundredth of their income to the support of the Church. , It is no accident that the collection in church is taken up at the Offertory. Many persons think that this is just an unnecessary interruption of the Mass. They forget that' the sacrifice proper begins with the Offertory. . That at the Offertory they are presenting the material for the sacrifice to the priest and ultimately to God. And so the monetary' offerings made at the Offertory are part of their 'gifts to God, their offerings to be joined to the great offering of Christ to His and our Father in heaven.

What should be the standard of support for the Church? ' One rule of thumb is for a person to give a little bit more than he thinks he can afford. The result would be a real gift, a sacrificial gift.

In the Old Testament Book of Tobias this principle is given: "If thou have much give abundantly: if thou have little, take care even so to bestow willingly a little: For thus thou storestup to thyself a good reward 'for the'day of necessity." , Each parish is a family of God. As in a human' family, love and appreciation are measured in terms, of -interest and sacrifice. And the greatest happiness lies in 't~e giving.

New Bedford Girl Delegate Continued from Page One Mary's ventures as a Junior Achiever included the manufac­ ture and sale of a "magic me­ ringue mix," costume jewelry, and a window cleaner. She is .till active in the group and will .erve as a counselor to younger members at a national conven­ tion to be 'held in Ihdianain' August.

Youth Award .....

Two years ago Mary 'was named outstanding Junior Daughter of Isabella for the year, and also placed as a finalist for the National Catholic' Youth Award, a presentation' made by the 'National Council of Catholic Youth. Now a junior at the Uni­ versity of Massachusetts, she has been awarded a yearly renewed , Junior Achievers' scholarship.

Her college activities present a breathless picture too. She's house chairman of her dormi­ tory, a member of Pi Beta Phi, active in the campus Newman Club, and an enthusiastic marcher in the college drill team. CurrenUy she's absorbed in preparations for the annual Win­ ter Carnival held by the Uni­ versity.

Time to Sightsee In Mexico for six days, Mary was chiefly occupied with con­ vention sessions but there was time for sightseeing as well, and one of her most cherished memories is of the trip she took to the shrine of Guadalupe. "The devotion of the people to Our Lady is unforgettable;" she says.

She was interested, too, to learn that scientific 'analysis of the cape displayed at Guadalupe as the one on which Our Lady im­ printed her image showed that its gold color came from butter­ fly wings, while its red was ob­ tained from rose-leaves. ' Delegates from all countries of Latin America and from many parts of Europe were at the study session. They were ad­ dressed by the Apostolic Dele':' gate to Mexico, Most Rev. Luigi Raimondi, and by Most Rev­ erend Miguel Dario Miranda, Arcpbishop Primate of Mexico, among many other dignitaries.

The convention closed with the imparting of a blessing to all participants from His Holiness, Pope Pius XII. Convention Sessions Most of the convention ses­ lions were carried on in French and Spanish, reported Mary, but with the aid of interpreters, the English speaking members were able to follow the proceedings.

"I derived most benefit from informal meetings with other delegates," she said. "Meeting girls and women from so many other countries gave me a real

feeling of the universality of the Church and the many problems facing those active in the lay apostolate." She will, report on her impressions to junior and senior groups of the Daughters of Isabella in' the New Bedford area. Interest in the activties of the Daughters is a tradition in the Manniniffamily, incid~ntally, Mrs. 'Manning holding office as a vice~regent the organization. ' .' '

In.an a?dtess to the Ci';cinnati MedievalIsts, Father James Van, der Veldt, 'O.F.M., of the Cath­ olic. Uni.versity of: America, Washmgton, D. C., said the.

Church adopts an attitude of "~xtreme caution" in 'evaluating. stigmata.

He cited the case of Theresa Neumann of Konnersreuth, Ger­ many, widely known living ,stig­ matic..

"I have heard her speak Ara­ maic,"he said, "but this might . ' be attributed to telepathy. There are instances ,where persons ~o­ were ignorant of foreign lan­ guage were enabled through tel­ epathy to speak it."

F at h er Van der Veldt ad­ . ml·tte d th at t h e ' ' spiritual fruits" of There,sa Neumann's stigmati­ zation have been remarkable­ including the conversion of nonCatholics and extreme skeptics.,' Nevertheless he continued there is no, universal agreement about her "mystical" ,life.

About Theresa Neumann's long fast, during which she sup­ posedly has eaten no food except the' Eucharist for 25 years, Father Van, der Veldt acknowl­ edged that it would require a

causes may not be entirely su­ pernatural. "God almost al­ ways works through secondary causes," he explained. "And it is reasonable,to hold that He al­ low these natural causes to pro­ duce the stigmata.

"He can first produce a state of, ecstasy, which is always a strongly emotional condition" . mo t'IOn an d 'In thOIS -way se t in the natural causes which result . th e Sigma . ta • ' ill ~'The mind and the soul, you might say, become stigmatized supernaturally, and from there on ,the process is all natural; the natural psychosomatic forces are set' in motion to 'produce the wounds" .

S uperna t ura l 'In terven indicated, he said, if there are definite signs of miracles, if the stigmatic has a highly developed mystical life, and if the stigmati­ zation "produces spiritual fruit."

Father Van der Veldt pointed out that of the 35~ persons in history known to have been marked by stigmata, about 60 ' have been canohized. "But even canonization does not .prove that the stigmata were of supernat­ ural or~in," he added.

Tolstoy's Convert Granddaughter Says Russians Religious a~ Heart.

ST. ANTHONY'S HIGH SCHOOL: Senior class offi­ cers of the New Bedford High School are, left to right, Caroline Leroux, secretary, Jacqueline Boucher, treasurer, Viviane Pothier, assistant treasurer, Claudette Jenkins, vice-president, and Russell Bessette, presiqent.

Superior Court Judge Opposes Effort to Tax Private Schools SANTA MONICA (NC) - Su­ perior Court Judge Stanley Mosk, president of the Los An­ geles Jewish Community Coun­ cil, told a Masonic club here that taxation of nonprofit, private Ilchools was not justified either by the morality or economics of the situation.

Judge Mosk later issued a Iltatement in Los Angeles to leaders and members of the Jew­ ish community noting that the Jewish Community Council had decided to take no formal stand on the taxation issue.

"However," he said, "as indi­ vidual citizens, we should study the issue. It is my conviction that once having studied the measure objectively, we undoubtedly will want to do all in our power to resist the taxation of an impor­ tant segment of our state's edu­ cational facilities."

Freedom of Education The jurist, who is a candidate for state attorney general, de­ parted from his prepared talk on "The Courts and Little Rock" here to discuss the school issue in California before the Masons.

"The freedom of education which we see so clearly in Little Rock also applies to freedom of our schools right here in Cali­ fornia from burdensome and dis­ criminatory taxation," Judge Mosk said.

An initiative proposal is on the November, 1958, ballot in Cali­ fornia. It is designed to reim­ pose property taxation on the ltates private, nonprofit elemen­ tary and secondary schools by amending the California consti­ tution to prohibit specifically the granting of tax exemption to these schools.

California was the last of the

48 states to exempt private IlChools. The legislature passed an exemption statute in 1951, but it did not go into effect until 1956 because of lengthy court battles.

"I hope you gentlemen will give some serious and deliberate thought to the proposed ballot measure, and realize the con­ troversy stirred up by pro­ ponents is not justified by either the morality or the economics of the situation," Judge Mosk told his audience.

Joins Committee In his statement released later, Judge Mosk said the Jewish Community Council had decided to "take no formal stand on a controversial state constitution­ al initiative amendment" be­ cause it "'has maintained har­ monious and villued working re­ lations with a wide number of leaders within the Christian faith." He added that personal conviction had ~ed him to accept

an invitation to join the organ­ izing committee of Citizens United Against Taxing Schools. . "Particularly do I deplore the fact that some of the support for the ,constitutional amendment which would tax church-related schools stems from religious in­ tolerance," he declared.

"Literature put out by one committee of sponsors of the tax initiative reeks of anti-Catholic propaganda. American consti­ tutionalism and religious bigotry are utterly. incompatible," he said.

His statement pointed out that the taxation would affect not only the state's 643 Catholic schools, but its 390 Protestant, 339 non-sectarian and four Jew­ ish schools.

Gift to Hospital INGLEWOOD, Calif. (NC)­ Employees of North American Aviation have donated $10,000 to Daniel· Freeman Hospital con­ ducted here by Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet.

The money' will be used to purchase addit'ional equipment and to aid construction of a new hospital wing. Sister Anne Lucy, administrator, said the employ­ ees had contributed $18,000 to the hospital in the past three years. .

In 1924 Marie left Russia for Czechslovakia, where she re­ ceived much of her higher edu­ cation and remained until com­ ing to the United States in 1940.

While studying at the University at Prague, Miss Tolstoy became attracted to the writings of St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aqui­ nas.

"Although I later studied many religons-the great religions of the world-it was always the writings of these theological giants that remained uppermost in my mind," Miss Tolstoy said.

When she asked a Jesuit priest-friend 'in Prague why he didn't try to convert her, he told Marie, "When you are will­ ing and capable you will become a Catholic." ­ Becomes Convert His prediction proved true. In 1950, while teaching at the sum­ mer school of the University of Michigan, Miss Tolstoy ap­ proached the local parish and requested instructions ill" the Catholic faith. Soon afterwards she was baptized.

While in Nashville, Miss Tol­ stoy told a local reporter that she saw the world losing its balance between culture and science.

Morocco Priest-Artist Urges

Greater Public Interest in Art

WA.SHINGTON (NC) - A priest-artist from Morocco sug­ gested here ,that the public should snap out of its apathy toward works of art.

Father Victor Isotta of Rabat, Morocco, who is giving a two­ week exhibition of his paintings at the Catholic Universtiy of America, said people generally seem w be ,'too lazy to study . paintings."

Father Isotta is on a month's vacation from his duties as chap­ lain of hospita.ls and prisons in Rabat. A Swiss citizen, he was born in Lugano in 1906 and or­ dained in 1936. He is an assistant priest at St. Joseph's Church in Rabat, where he has been sta­ tioned for six years.

Father !sotta worked his way through college in Bellinzona, Switzerland, by playing piano in a motion picture theater in the days of silent movies. "You know," he said, "when there was a love scene I played real 'dolce,' and when the horses were gal­ 'lopping across the screen I played clippety-clop, clippety­ clop."

After being ordained in the San'Carlo Seminary in Lugano, F~ther Isotta was attached W parishes in Bar' and Milan, Italy.' He studied art at tpe College of St. Gall in Switzer­ land and had his first one-man show In Ba~i. In 1954 he exhib­

ited his paintings, in the. stak' gallery in Rabat. Subsequently. he showed his work in several galleries in Morocco.

Since the abstract style oj painting is not easy to compre­ hend, Father Isotta was asked how the Arabs looked upon bi~ artistic work. ' Arabs Like Abstract "Abstract painting appeals to them," he said, "because the~' like a great deal of· color and geometric design, and do nol care at all for concrete figures Actually, an article of the Mos­ lem religion forbids them to have realistic representations in their art."

"Abstract paintings seem tv 'reach' t~em," he continued. "An Arab will stand in front of ~ painting for as long as a haU­ hour, without uttering a word, You can understand this when you observe them watching tht' sun set, sometimes for as lonl; as two hours.

What about the American atti­ tude toward art? he was asked.

"I hesitate to express any def­ jni~e opinion," he replied. "since this is my i\rst visit to thif country. It seems to' me thai American men are too busy with their jobs, and it is the women who are more interested in th{ arts, social life and charitable works."

of Lay Apostles

Continued from Page One "She meets with obstacles undergoes shocks and persecu~ nons. She finds loyal followers, makes 'conquests, knows triwnph; and she goes forward, suffering al1 d growing, praying and working, teaching and doing gQod. "She hastens on toward an end which draws her as though it were close at hand, and sus­ tains her so that she knows neither fatigue nor disillusion.

She hastens on, in the hope of' a day ,when the mysterious Christ she bears .will finally reveal Himself, - and will take , her unto Himself in the beati­ tude of eternal life. ' "This mission is therefore like a journey ~n which the Church lives and grows and continu'es the work of redemption, and although it has all the striking and apparent marks of a great human phenomenon,' it is not merely human.

"It is, as it. were, a continued incarnation of Christ, and so its starting point, its life and dir,ec­ tion are governed by a mystery, which is precisely the indwelling presence oi Christ."

The Archbishop pointed out ill inspiring language how the mission of Christ flows over into the mission of the Church.

He said that the mission of a lay apostle must be to share in the mission of the Church. The apostle must continue and safe~_ guard and exercise the mission

of Christ. The basis for the apostle'~ mission must be ortho­ doxy and a mandate. , Fixed Dogmas The apostle must be an apostle ,at. dogmas that are fixed, truths that are unchanging. There is a temptation in .modern life to throw off all restraints, not to be bound by specific dogmas.

Many persons try to be apostles' in this way and while they may be sincere and motivated by 'a fragment of moral teaching or 80me other in.spiratiori, they are apostles of themselves and not of Christ. The apostolate must be a continuation of Christ, not a human mission.

Union with Christ is guaran­ teed by union with His truths, whole and inviolate.

Not Free Lance The Archbishop further pointed out that, "the apostolate ill not a free lance affair but an organized militia, a collabora­ tion; and it will be all the more' perfect the more deeply it is imbued with a spirit of hierarchy and community, and the mor~ closely it is united to those whom 'the Holy Spirit has'placed ... as bishops' to rule the Church, of God." There must be discipline in the apostolate; anyone who wants to be an apostle must b.e subordi­ nate to ecclesiastical authority.

It is impossible to be an apostle of the Church unless one is united to and guided by and under the authority of the BISHOP. The Christian mission is essen­ tially religious. It considers man from thes'tandpoint of' his ulti-

mate end. It is a gospel, "good news," which interprets the world as God sees the world, and invites men to judge things in the same light. .

"The Church is the continua­

tion of Christ, her mission is to bear Christ, she must give birth to Christ in the life of the world.

She makes us one body with

Christ."

Problems The Archbishop concluded by reminding his listeners that in the rapid change world there can be, perhaps, reforms not in principles, b'ut in unessentials.

These reforms must be .intro­ duced and carried out by those in authority: "~et' no one do any.:. thing without the Bishop in, those matters 'pertaining to the.

Church,'" (St. Ignatius of An­

tioch) A lay apostle is, then, a person who understands the mission of Christ in the world, Ii mission carried 'out in and through His' Church, a mission that individu­ als share in by their own activ­ ities only when they act under the' Bishop and guided by his directives. Then they are truly sharing in the Church's and Christ's mission'.
