Marria'ge, But was the second maneuver

by Senate President Robert Travaglini in as many months to recess the Constitutional Convention without taking up the marriage amendment a flagrant disregard for the will of the people?

Or was it to insulate incumbent lawmakers from reaction by voters until two days after state ano national elections on November 9?

The answers depend on whom' you ask.

"The Protection of Marriage Act was next to last on the legislature's 21-item agenda for the ' Convention, and after four-and-ahalf hours legislators had only finished with the first 10," reported, Edward'F. Saunders Jr., executive director of the Massachusetts Catholic Council.

"Although Travaglini has said publicly four days prior to the Convention that he hoped all 21 items would come up for a vote, he also was skeptical that they would'," recalled Saunders.

The MCC is the, public policy voice of the four Catholic bishops of Massachusetts, who have supported the amendment, which in essence, would ban any same-sex marriages in the Bay State in the future.

"Wednesday was a disappoint'ment. But the vote on the Amendment is still viable and will be on the calendar for November 9," said Saunders. "We need to take a deep breath, and gear up for November 9 and continue to hound our legislators and make our views known."

Saunders said "the issue of protecting legislators whose votes on this volatile issue is considered by some as 'crucial to their political futures ... may have somehow played in the decision to adjourn," he said candidly, "but we're not sure."

However, Kris Mineau, president of the MassachusettS Family Institute, was more adamant, accusing the legislators of sidestepping the issue.

"Trying to get legislators back two days after an election is really asking for the moon. I think that is really disingenuous to pick that date," Mineau told VoteOnMarriage.org.

To get on the 2008 statewide ballot, the amendment must twice .win the backing of 25 percent or 50 - ofthe state's 200 lawmakers; once during the current session and again during the session beginning nextJanuary.

Rep. Phil Travis, D-Rehoboth, a firm supporter of the Amendment, and in the minority which voted to stay and keep working, said, "They (representatives and senators) walked away to vote themselves back into office. The majority decided to duck the issue again."

Rep. Robert Correia, D-Fall River, a veteran of the political wars, who is seeking a 16th term in the House, and who also voted to stay and work on the agenda, said the decision to adjourn, "Is complex and involves many issues

... depending on who you are and what side you're taking."

Did the vote reflect uneasiness on the part of incumbents to make a controversial decision when reelection this fall was on the line?

"Absolutely," asserted Correia.

"It was part of the mix. But there is more." .

He said that while it was "a long and tedious day," legislative leaders, including Travaglini and House Speaker Salvatore Dimasi, "have not hidden their views.

They are absolutely not in favor of the Marriage Amendment. Opponents of the amendment didn't

want a vote to take place July 12, journment "in one way teflects that coming on the. heels of the state the 50 votes needed t6. move the Supreme Court's ruling that we 'Amendment are there.t could vote on it.

Navarro-Valls On July 11, Pope Benedict acceded to Joaquin Navarro-Valls' "oft-expressed, readiness" to retire from the position of the director of the Holy See Press Office and de facto papal spokesman.

PopeJohnPaulllin 1984 gave this Spanish layman the mandate and IeS9urces to bring the Vatican's press relations into the communications age. In addition ,to a thorough modernization ofthe offices ofthe Sala Stampa, Navarro and his Polish boss thoroughly changed the way the Holy See handled the news. Prior to Navarro's appointrtJ.ent, the traditional Vatican approach was, basically, the less said about something, the better. Navarro brought a whole new openness to media relations. He saw his task as notjust responding to queries - sometimes curious, sometimes hostile - posed by reporters from various world news outlets, but to inform the world, with positive enthusiasm, ofall that the Church was doing in service of God and mankind. He proactively wanted to take ,the bushel basket off the Church's good works and let their light shine for the whole worldto see. His press strategy is the one consciously adopted by this newspaper, as can be seen in the way we try to cover news stories,' as well as features like the Person of the Week.

Navarro was also an icon ofa new type ofChurch leader. He was not a priest or religious, but a thoroughly formed layman. He was a specialist in internal medicine, a psychiatrist, and ajournalist. As a lay celibate member ofOpus Dei, he took all the same courses in philosophy, theology, Scripture and canon law that priests do. All that training proved providential and useful when, after a Stint as Vatican and eastern Mediterranean correspondent for a Spanish daily, he was tapped by John Paul II. Navarro was supreq1ely capable of translating the dense thoughts of papal encyclicals into journalistic sound-bytes intelligible to the modern world. He was deft and factual in relaying medical.information about an often-ill pope, especially during the later years. And his psychiatric background, he often joked, was great preparation for dealing with members of the Vatican press corps.

He was more than a "Renaissance man," but a thoroughly 21steentury lay 'Catholic, whose example will remain both archetypal and inspirational.

On to November 9 - and 7 There wasjustifiable outrage last week when Massachusetts legislators, by a vote of 100-91, pusillanimously adjourned the Constitutional Convention. The original vote on the Marriage Protection Amendment (MPA) was s~pposed to occur on May 10, but legislative leaders delayed it until July 12. Now they have postponed action until November 9. ' .

All sides agree that had a May 10 or a July 12 vote been taken on the Marriage Protection Amendment, it would have safely surpassed the 50 of 200 votes necessary to send it to the 2007 legislative session and closer to the 2008 ballot. This new four-month delay, like the original three-month postponement, was agreed upon not because legislators have no time in $e next 120 days to take up what remained <?n the Convention agenda, but because it was pushed by MPA opponents 'in the hope that it will change the outcome.

Same-sex marriage activists were delighted with the delay, declaring that it would give them time to try to change the votes of legislators currently in favor ofgiving Massachusetts citizens the final say on the meaning ofmarriage. They have stated that they believe that their commitment to defeating the MPA will prove greater than the resolve ofMPA supporters. In a game ofperseverance in the day-t<Hlay grind oflobbying politicians and the public, they are convinced they will triumph. That's wh짜 the first challenge for MPA supporters after last week's Beacon Hill chicanery is to prove this supposition wrong, by recommitting themselves to the long-haul and to match and exceed the dogged day-today exertion of the gay lobby. ' Also happy with the delay were the 100 Machiavellian legislators who thought, in adjourning until two days after legislative elections in November, that they would thereby insulate themselves from the electoral consequences of , a controversial and potentially politically-damaging vote. If they're going to cast a vote displeasing to the majority within their districts, so the misanthropic logic says, better to do it tw.o days after an election - when voters will have almost two years to forget it- than in the months immediately leading up to an election. But this cynical strategy will succeed only if voters permit it.

They can make the scheme backfire on the legislators by turning the November 7 election into what these legislators are afraid of: a referendurn on their position on the MPA. If that occurs, then these two delays may prove very beneficial. For decades, supporters of traditional morality in the Bay State have relied almost exclusively on a lobbying strategy to defeat harmful measures. When Billy Bulger was Senate president and Thomas Finneran was speaker of the house, these tactics generally succeeded, as these leaders were able, sometimes almost single-handedly, to derail noxious legislation. But with Robert Travaglini and Sal Dimasi at the helm, that approach is no longer viable.

If supporters of traditional morality in the Commonwealth want to prevent future disgraces like May 10 and July 12,they need to develop an electoral strategy to replace or at least complement the lobbying one of yesteryear. That strategy should begin this year.

By their actions in May and July, state legislative leaders in support of same-sex marriage have shown they fear that a vote ' against the MPA before the election would come back to haunt theni in November.

Moreover, by trying to derail the MPA before it can 'get to the people in 2008, they have also shown that they believe the majority of their fellow citizens will vote to eliminate same-sex marriage, like citizens of 19 other states have, if given the chance. If November 7 is made a referendum on the MPA, then these indications imply that in most districts of the Commonwealth candidates who support it will have the upper' hand.

MARy's EDUCATION

FUND DINNER IN MASHPEE LAST WEEKEND. (ANCHORIJOLIVET PHOTO)

"LET THEM EVER SING FOR JOY" (PSALM

5:11).

Toward the top An'annual reunion of seminary classmates landed me in Colorado last week, for a challenging adventUre in hiking. The goal was to climb one of the!"fourteeners" - those mountain peaks in the' U.S. that exceed 14,000 feet in height. And the target chosen was the Mount of the Holy Cross, named for: the distinctly-shaped ' cross of snow that remains on the face of the mountain after the spring melt. These reunions are always a welcomed time of communal prayer, priestly fraternity arid outdoor adventures, but this year's turned out to be one of great spiritual lessons, as well.

The first day involved a shorter hike, beginning from 10,000 feet, ascending 1,700 feet to cross the first pass, and then descending 900 feet on a steep, zig-zag path, to set up camp by a creek.

Throughout the descent, the summit loomed off in the distance, seemingly unreachable. At this point, the only problem was the heavy packs we carried on our backs, with all of the necessary supplies. These packs weighed us down, and slowed our progress, as do many unavoidable burdens in life that must necessarily be carried and endured.

With dark, threatening clouds moving closer, we pitched tents, and began to wonder what the night would bring. I suppose we could have survived a bad storm, but we knew we were only amateur hikers and campers, and we began to worry a little about what might happen, as we sent up more than a few prayers. How true the same is on the pilgrimage of our lives, as we face the unknown, with occasional signs of danger, that cause us to turn to God for help.' .

The next morning, we rose ~3!ly.t9 begi~ our ll~cent t,othe

summit, but before heading out, we celebrated holy Mass in the beautiful cathedral of God's creation, overlooking the valley between the mountains. Just as in the adventure of our lives, our Lord's real presence in the Eucharist was true food for the "journey.

Our patron for the hike was Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, the young Catholic layman from north~rn Italy in the, beginning of

the 20th century' - a great outdoorsman, witQ a special love for the mountains that was surpassed only by his love for the poor, from whom he contracted , polio, ending his life at age 24. , Blessed Pier Giorgio's motto was "verso l'alto!," or "toward the , top," signifying, not his love for climbing mountains, but his desire to climb the heights of sanctity. As our stamina waned throughout the hike, each of us called upon Blessed Pier Giorgio for courage and assistance.

During the final ascent of almost 3,000 feet, with the weather threatening once again, and the Sl.!.mmit always seeming so far away, each of us voiced our increasing doubts that the goal , could be reached. We were running out of time and energy, with p~n, exhaustion, cold and thirst setting in and tempting us to give I,lp the fight. We thought of the analogous obstacles that always surface in life and in our efforts to be faithful to Christ, but we alsQ thought of the power of

hope, and the grace of perseverance that God promises to those who are faithful, and we continuedon.

Toward the top, the path faded away, leaving only large boulders to be surmounted by sore hands and feet, with the summit now completely out of sight. As many saints have known, even those who are faithful can sometimes find themselves plummeted in darkness and confusion, seeking the way to Christ, and. struggling to persevere.

But finally reaching the peak, and standing at the top brings a joy and sense of achievement that is hard to describe. We know it will be the same at the end of our pilgrimage, if we persevere in faith, to reach the summit of heaven. We know that then, we will not think of the pains and struggles involved in getting there, but only of the one whose perfect love abides and fulfills.

"A life lived by faith resembles more an expedition up a mountain than a quiet evening spent reading in front of the fire." These are the words of our Hoiy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, and they are the words that came to mind during our climb" of the Mount of the Holy Cross., Although we all might welcome the thought of a peaceful, pleasant, and comfortable evening, without trials or challenges, we know that being' faithful to Christ is much more of an adventure and an upward climb that requires faith, hope, love and final perseverance. It is an adventure that often requires us to put into the deep, trusting that God will lead us and bring us to the end.

Of course not. He was sitting next to a human Citronella candle. As long as I was out there, no one became a target.

I know in the large scheme of things that God knows what he's doing. But for the life of me, I can't figure out why he created things like mosquitos, ticks, and, I know this is going to upset a few good friends, cats.

But I do have a good sense why he created me - quite simply, to entertain mosquitos, ticks and cats.

Despite the itching, "tick checks" each night, and the sneezing when cats are around - and they always seek me out to rub against my ankles - it's nice to know God put me here for a reason.

Those in authority have a great responsibility toward their subjects, yet they are also subject to the tempta- ' ~ion of abusing their prestige, and promoting them.. selves in the process.

The Book of Wisdom admonishes: "Terribly and swiftly shall he come against you, because judgment is stern for the exalted.

For the lowly may be pardoned out of mercy, but the mighty shall be mightily put to the test" (Wisdom 5:5-6).

Today, Jeremiah , (Jeremiah 23:1-6) condemns harshly the politicalauthorities of his day, .because they ruined the sheep entrusted to them. Then he promises that one day the Lord will provide, from the' hoqse of David, a wise and JUSt king, who will be a true shepherd of his people.

I'n his Gospel, (Mk 6:3034) St. Matthew shows us that shepherd. He is Jesus of

In Mark (5:30-32), the Apostles report to Jesus all they had done and taught, and Jesus invites them to '''come away by yourselves to a .deserted place and rest a while .... Then they went off in a boat by themselves." Mark is teaching us that all who offer any ministry in the Christian community should do it with an extreme generosity: "they had no . opportunity even to, eat."

happens today: Jesus' disrqiples work tirelessly, engage ill innumerable activities, ~uggest all kinds of activities.

Sometimes,however, they ac.t on their own impulses and . ioeas, forgetting to conform, , with the community, or, worse still, with the word of the Gospel. This happens because there is neither patience nor courage to stop a while to pray and reflect with Christ on what has been done, or needs to be done.

Leisure time is important. The Rule of St. Benedict has advised society for 1,500 years to live' according to the threefold rhythm of prayer,'.work and recreation.

Yet Jesus' suggestedrest only lasted while he and his llisciples crpssedthe lake in the boat, because the crowd Jr"hastened on foot from all the towns, and arrived at the place .Iibefore them"(Mark 6:33-34).

Those in the boat represent the Christian community reflecting and confronting their own ministry with the Lord, before returning to the midst of the people.

This community, bearer of a word of hope and of salvation, is anxiously awaited , by the crowd: "Jesus was moved with pity .for them, for they'were like sheep without a shepherd."

Mark, therefore, has Jesus reassuming the image ' of a shepherd. The master , sat down and began to teach them many things; he dialogued with them, understood their concerns, and, with God's patient endurance, he taught them about his and our Father. ' Remember, Jesus-themaster-shepherd, knows our human nature well, and knows exactly how it works.

Since the Second Vatican Council, an exclusive club of diocesan priests have found themselves inviting the bishop' to dedicate a brand new church.

These include: Msgrs. Chris · Broderick (Sf. Pius X), Ron · Tosti (Christ the King), John Moore (St. Mary), Fathers Dan Freitas (St. John of Ood), John Hogan (St Julie), Ernie, Blaise (Notre Dame), Tom Mayhew (Mount Carmel), George Harrison (St. John' Neumann), Jack Andrews (St. Joan of Arc) and Marcel Bouchard (Corpus Christi). · Let's not forget St. John the Baptist Church, Westport. The · rarest member of the club ' would be right now Father Joe ,Powers.:- two churches (St. ,Mark and St. Elizabeth Seton).

Any priest who builds a , .church has earned his Purple Heart. Nationally, heart attacks among priests who have ' 'recently built churches run ' , high. There is much stress.

Father Dan Freitas and thenDeacon Arnie Medeiros actually lived in a rectory as it was being moved to provide space for a new church. Every morning they woke up at a . different address. Talk about the Pilgrim Church.

Next up to 'build a church is Father Henry Dahl and St. Peter's'faith community in Provincetown. There is talk of Father Mike Nagle building on Martha's Vineyard. Rumor also has it that Father Jack Andrews may be building his second church on the Cape.

EWTN anniversary cel~bration in Philadelphia draws 4,OQO' ,

,

PHILADELPHIA (CNS) Father Richard John Neuhaus, a speaker at a Philadelphia celebration for the 25th anniversary of the { Eternal Word Television Network, called the event a "remarkable occasion" marking a milestone for "a most improbable adventure."

The priest, who is ,editor of the monthly magazine First Things, called,the founding ofEWTN by Mother Angelica "a high adventure," and said the nun made herself "a vessel of what God can do beyond our imagination."

The recent celebration drew more than 4,000 people from the Philadelphia region arid from around the country to the Liacouras Center at Temple University.

Other speakers included Father Benedict Groeschel, a Franciscan Friar of the Renewal, as well as Marcus Grodi, Raymond Arroyo and Scott Hahn. They all had audience members on their feet, askCARDINAL J~STIN Rigali ing questions and shouting answers to the speakers' questions. of Philadelphia delivers his .

Father Groeschel, noted author and EWTN program bost, spoke ,before the closing Mass cel:1 ebrated by Philadelphia Cardinal Justin Rigali: I ' He said the Catholic Church has been pulled apart by arguments and battles between Catholics on opposite sides on such issues as liturgy, liturgical practices and different applications of , Catholic teaching.

I But the Church should not be " a place where the faithful expect I to feel comfortable because their preferences are the accepted pref; erences, he added.

The Catholic Church follQws Jesus Christ, and so each Catholic must follow Christ, "even when he leads me where I do not wish to I go," Father Groeschel said. "We I: must renounce our own wishes to Ii follow him.
