Bp. Gracida opposescapital punishment
ir.nn j.U« «»o+ aryA Qrt far
TALLAHASSEE ,Fla. -(NC)-"Do unto others as theydid to someone else is not partof our Christian heritage,"Bishop Rene Gracida ofPensacola-Tallahassee said ina statement opposing thedeath penalty.
"Killing people who killpeople to prove killing peopleis wrong is not only poorlogic, but it is counter-productive to the true end ofsociety," he said.
"Murderers must bedealt with justly," he said."But justice is not served bythe brutal and barbaric ac-tions of a firing squad,hangman's noose or electricchair, or even by moresophisticated forms ofvniino. "cited the parable of the womanat the well in which Jesuscame to the defense of anadulteress and said "Thosewho are without sin cast thefirst stone."
"Christ could have cast astone, but he did not," BishopGracida said. "Is it reasonableto think that Christ wouldhave served on the firingsquad of Gary Gilmore?''
Gilmore, who wasexecuted in Utah in January
1977, was the first, and so farthe only, persons executedsince the Supreme Court's1976 decisions upholding theconstitutionality of somecapital punishment laws.Florida has a number of in-mates on death row and someface execution in the nearfuture.
Bishop Gracida said thatwhile society has the legalright to use the death penaltyto protect itself, the practice iscounter-productive from apractical viewpoint and highlyquestionable from a moralviewpoint.
"The poor and thepowerless are all too oftenexecuted while the rich andinfluential person guilty of thesame crime escapes with a1<<rk+ eon+onop " }<<> W"** " W ostandard of justice.
"A society that allowsitself to demean its moral lifeby destroying respect andreverence for human lifesentences itself ultimately tothe death penalty," BishopGracida said.
He said society shouldnot "coddle criminals." But,he said, "crimes of sicknessand passion are not deterred bythreats of capital punish-ment."
Your gift can helpa priest make it
Dear Friends in Christ:
We are all aware of the importance of providing priestsfor the future needs of the Archdiocese of Miami. Yourpersonal concern is manifested in your continuing efforts tofoster vocation's in the parish and in your willingness toassume the heavy responsibility of educating ourseminarians.
By means of a Parish Burse (Investment) of $50,000, theArchdiocese is able to educate a seminarian for the years ofhis seminary training. Such a Parish Burse remains per-petual; as soon as one candidate is ordained, another can beassigned to benefit from the interest it continues to earn. Inthis way, each person enjoys the unique opportunity ofsharing year after year in the prayers and spiritual service oftheir priests.
A complete Burse is usually reached by .many donationslarge and small. While few people can afford the full cost of aBurse, many thousands of people have contributed towardthe completion of a Burse by their donations to this annualcollection or by bequests in their Wills.
The annual Parish Burse Collection will take placeSunday, April 29, 1979. I again call upon your generosity insupporting our seminarians who will later serve you aspriests of the Archdiocese.
Thanking you in behalf of your future priests andasking God to bless you and your loved ones, I am.
Very sincerely yours in Christ,Abp. Edward A. McCarthy

St. Augustine Bishopretires because of ageWASHINGTON -
(NC)- Bishop Paul F.Tanner, who was the U.S.bishops' voice on a number ofpublic issues during his 10years as general secretary ofthe bishops' conferences, hasresigned as head of theDiocese of St. Augustine, Fla.
Archbishop Jean Jadot,apostolic delegate in theUnited States, announcedApril 21 that Pope John PaulII had accepted theresignation, which wassubmitted because BishopTanner is approaching themandatory retirement age of75. The bishop will serve asapostolic administrator of thediocese until a successor isnamed.
BISHOP TANNER, thelast general secretary of theNational Catholic WelfareConference and the firstgeneral secretary of its dualsuccessors, the NationalConference of CatholicBishops-U.S. CatholicConference, had been bishopof St. Augustine since March1968.
Born Jan. 13, 1905, inPeoria, 111., he studied for thepriesthood at KenrickSeminary, St. Louis, and St.F r a n c i s S e m i n a r y ,Milwaukee,where he wasordained on May 30, 1931. Helater pursued graduate studiesat Marquette University and
the Catholic University ofAmerica.
In the Milwaukee Arch-diocese, he was a parish curate,high school religion teacher,CYO director, CCD director,and head of the CatholicAction program. He alsoserved as director of CampJerome, arch diocesan CYOcamp, and was residentchaplain and professor ofreligion at St. Mary's Con-vent, Milwaukee.
His work at the NationalCatholic Welfare Conferencebegan in August 1940 with hisappointment as assistantdirector of the NCWC'sCatholic Youth Bureau. Twoyears later he became directorof the youth department andin 1945 he was namedassistant general secretary.
When he was appointedNCWC general secretary inJanuary 1958, Bishop Tannerbecame the first in that postto have come up from thevarious offices of assistantd e p a r t m e n t d i r e c t o r ,department director, assistantgeneral secretary and generalsecretary.
As NCWC generalsecretary, Bishop Tannerspoke out against the use ofpublic funds for birth controlprograms and addressed avariety of other issues, in-cluding abortion and theUnited Nations. More than 30
years ago, when- he wasassistant general secretary, hewrote about the "currentdiscussion of church-staterelations in the UnitedStates," a subject of renewedinterest to the bishops today.
"The generality ofAmerican Catholics arescarcely conscious of the veryreal fear and haunting terrorthat scourges the souls ofmany sincere Protestants onhearing" the slogan,"separation of church andstate," he wrote. "Thus, theagitation of the last few yearsover the 'separation of churchand state,' while headlined inProtestant circles, has beennoticed only slightly inCatholic publications."
Pope promoteskid apostolate
VATICAN CITY -(NC)— On the occassion ofthe International Year of theChild, Pope John Paul IIexpressed a special concern forthe missionary apostolate ofchildren to children. The popepraised Catholic HolyChildhood Associationsaround the world for theirspiritual and material help tochildren.

Priest Psychotherapist helps the hurt
"...says all depression
is caused by how people
talk to themselves about
situations in their lives."
Father Mike Flanagan talks with kids in a 'rap session.'
By GERARD E. SHERRY
A priest as apsychotherapist ?
Yes, that is FatherMichael Flanagan, S.P., of theDivision of Family Services inthe Central Catholic ServiceBureau of the ArchdiocesanCharities. He is one of a staffof eight counselors, most ofwhom are social workers withdegrees. There are two part-time psychiatrist-consultants.The priest's own training is inpsychology counseling.
WHAT TYPE of peoplego to him and the Bureau forcounseling? All kinds, ac-cording to Father
Flanagan-Christians and non-Christians.
"Most of the people whocome, come because they arehurt", the priest said. "Ispecifically deal with peoplewho are depressed. I have a lotof training in counselingdepression. People comebecause they are hurting intheir marriages, they wanthelp in dealing with theirchildren, they want help indealing with themselves,learning more about them-selves and being able to cope.
"Depression is a state oftension and anxiety to such adegree that it interferes withyour normal daily function.
It's a little bit different thanordinary sadness or ordinaryfrustration. It goes to a degreethat it interferes with yourdaily functioning. Thisparticular state of depressionaffects people obviously in allwalks of life.
"I 'm an Adlerianpsychotherapist. Alfred Adlerhad the answer, I think, todepression. His answer wasthat if there is no chemicalimbalance in the body, alldepression is self-caused. Histheory is further expanded byAlbert Ellis, the psychiatristin New York City whodeveloped what he calledrational-emotive behavior
April Mental Health MonthBy Fr. Mike Flanagan, S.P.
Do you worry a lot? Areyou constantly edgy, irritableand upset? Do you fear newsituations and meeting newpeople? Do you mistrustothers? Do you have a poorself-image? Do you get moodyor depressed without knowingwhy?
If you answered "y e s" *°any of these questions, youwould most likely find coun-seling helpful. Tension, stressand anxiety are so prevalenttoday that some psychologistrefer to our times as "TheAge of Depression." It is wellknown that most hospitalbeds are taken by mentallydisturbed people.
The Mental Healthprofessionals, psychologist,social workers, guidancecounselors, etc., dedicateApril to making the publicaware that your emotional
health is important to thecommunity and that help isavailable. Rational-EmotiveTherapy is one therapy amongmany that can teach you tolive happily and withoutdepression and worry. Whenyou know how to thinkrationally, then depressionand worry cease. Most peopledo not know that worry andguilt are caused by howpeople talk to themselvesabout events in their lives. Askillfull R.E.T. counselor isable to teach clear thinking ina relatively short time.
Just as differentmedications affect people invarying ways, so too, differenttherapies. You may berestored to better mentalhealth via Gestalt therapy,primal therapy, transactionalanalysis or whatever. But beassured that there is plenty ofhelp available.
The Mental HealthAssociation of Dade Countywill host a community Day ofMental Health at Miami DadeSouth Campus on April 27from 8 to 4:30 p.m. Amongthe 50 seminars are"Menopause: Myth andStigma," "A Child's Death:How Can a Family Cope?","Human Sexuality."
More information isavailable by calling 379-3642.
The Archdiocese ofMiami reaches out to thecommunity, too, and serves itin the mental health area byproviding the Family ServiceDivision of the CatholicService Bureau. A staff ofskilled therapists docounseling, train parishconsultans, teach parentseffectiveness and facilitategroup discussion.

therapy. He says alldepression is caused by howpeople talk to themselvesabout situations in their lives.
"SO, IF A MAN'S wifeleaves him, and he is severelydepressed, then the depressionis caused not by his wife'sleaving him, but what he istelling himself about what itmeans that his wife has lefthim. 'I'm no good. I blew it. Imust be a louse. It's terriblewhat's happening to me.' He'smaking an unfortunate anda too bad situation an awfuland terrible one."
Father Flanagan saidthat some people think thatthere is a difference betweendepression and a guiltcomplex, "but there reallyisn't."
"Guilt is also caused byhow one talks to himself aboutwhat he's done. So, if a personcommits a bad act, andrecognizes that the act is bad,that's one thing. But then, ifhe says that because hecommitted that bad act—I amno good. I'm a terrible per-son.. I'm not worthy to beloved-that's what causesguilt. One can change his badbehavior without necessarilyfeeling guilty about it. A lot ofpeople believe that unless I'mguilty, I'm not going tochange my behavior, andthat's not true.
"It's really not a matterof telling people about theirproblems. It's working withthem so they can workthrough their own difficultiesand problems, and usually in abad marriage situation, thereare two things that can bedone. One is if it's feasible toreduce their problems - to split.If they're here and they say
'No, we don't want to split,but we want to learn how tocope with each other,' I try towork with them.
"I GIVE THEM a lot ofreadings, and so on, and try topoint out to them that manyof their problems-much of thepain that they are goingthrough-they're causing tothemselves. So, if this lady ismarried to me and she nagsme or she hassles me, that's afact. What she's doing is afact-but, if that upsets meand drives me up a wall, I dothat to myself by what I tellmyself.
"She shouldn't nagme-she shouldn't speak to methat way-she has no right totalk to me that way. It'sterrible what she's doing.'And, after a lot of practice, thehusbands and the wives starttalking to themselves in adifferent way. 'It's really o.k.that my husband uses thisfoul language, or that he hidesbehind the paper and doesn'ttalk to me. I don't like thefact, but I don't have to makethat fact a terrible, unbearableburden.'
"It is all a matter ofdegree. Depending upon howmuch work these couples do,they can reduce the problems.If a woman is always nagging,and it is pointed out to herthat this is working againsther relationship - that she isreally not getting out of themarriage what she wantsto-with practice she canreduce the intensity of thenagging and the frequency ofit, and so can the man.".
Father Flanagan saidthere are three main reasons

sifying of God's Word; It Is by making the truth publicly known that we recommendourselves to the honest judgment of mankind, as In God's sight. (2 Corinthians 4:1-2)
'Our God Is A Consuming Fire'The fo l lowing is an extract of remarks
made by Executive Editor Gerard E. Sherryin a Welcoming Address to the Membersof the Catholic Press Association of theUnited States and Canada meeting in FortLauderdale this week.)
The Council Fathers made it clear inall of their documents, but more especiallythrough the decree on the church in theModern Wor ld that through the chemistryof a burning match, to the atomic blaze onthe surface of the sun, to the final thrustof a space rocket, to the intense spiritualfire of the Holy Spirit, there is a definiteand real continuity.
St. Paul knew little chemistry and lessnuclear physics. But when he wrote "OurGod is a consuming f i re" (Heb. 12:29), heexpressed a profound truth. Fifty days afterthe Resurrection on Easter Sunday, tendays after Our Lord's Ascension, the HolySpirit came down upon the Apostles in theform of "wha t seemed to be tongues off i re." Today what w e editors need aboveall else is vital contact w i th this same fireof the Holy Spir i t -an intense contact thatwi l l raise to the burning point our owngenerosity and charity, and so enable us torekindle the world's rapidly-cooling embersof fai th, love and hope.
This is how it was with the first Apostles.Once they had been set on fire by the HolySpirit, they could not help communicat ingthat fire to others. These others in turncommunicated it still further to the ends ofthe earth. Have we editors ever approachedthe Holy Spirit close enough to be burned?Have we opened chilled hearts to Histransforming flame? Are w e on fire w i thHis charity? Our Lord said, " I t is fire that Ihave come to spread over the earth. "(Lk.12:49) To test whether or not w e are onfire spiritually, w e ought to observe whataffect w e have on our readers. Do they setdown their papers transformed, eager topass on the flame?
Do w e bring the warmth of divinecharity to the poor, to the under privi legedand the under-paid-to the minorities andmigrants exploited in the city and in therural areas? Do w e burn w i th a Catholic(universal) desire to help rather than merelycritic i-ze the Pope, our bishops, our priestsand religious and laity.
In general, are our Catholic neighborsbetter persons for having come into contactw i th the Catholic Press? If so, then w e our-selves have indeed been touched by the fireof the Holy Spirit, for again it is not ourf lame, but that of the Spirit that they feel.
But if w e f ind that the Catholic readeris not changed f rom his contact w i th us,then it is t ime to take the spiritual tem-perature of the Catholic Press and to startlooking for all possible contacts w i th theSource of the new fire.
This points to the fact that there mustbe an on-going reexamination of the pur-poses and goals of the Catholic Press.This reexamination must involve not onlythe editors, but also their Bishop publishers,.
pastors and competent laity.The primary task of the Catholic
newspaper is to present news and viewsand information, v iewed f rom the angle ofthe whole man. Our product differs f romthe secular newspaper because for us, thebest techniques in journalism are not theonly things to be considered. Whi le it isnecessary to have these techniques to havea good newspaper, the Catholic newspaperis not good merely by having them.Something more is necessary-viewing theformat ion of public opinion f rom the visionof fai th. As far back as Pius XXI , dealt w i ththis was in a talk in 1950 on publicopinion wi th in the Church. He said:
"The Church is a living body, andsomething wou ld be lacking to her life ifexpression could not be given to publicopinion wi th in it. For such a lack, bothpastors and the faithful might be to blame.Here the Catholic Press can render usefulservice...
"The Catholic writer must know howto guard himself against mute servility aswel l as against uncontrolled crit icism. Wi tha f i rm clarity he should contribute towardthe format ion of a Catholic opinion wi th inthe Church, this is particularly true today,when opinion vacillates between an illusoryand unreal sprirituality and a defeatist andmaterialistic realism.
"Keeping itself f rom these t w oextremes, the Catholic Press must exerciseamong the faithful its influence upon publicopinion wi th in the Church. It is only in thismanner that it wi l l be able to avoid theideas which are false by excess or defectregarding the role and possibilities of theChurch in the temporal order, and in ourdays particularly, on the social questionand the problem of peace."
Much of the tensions that exist wi th inthe Church today can be mit igated in largemeasure through positive action by editorsof the Catholic Press. There are differencesand w e ought t o try and compose them.W e ought especially avoid a deliberatepublicizing of the sensational merely tobolster our positions.
Moved not by any outside pressuresf rom anyone whatsoever, but solely by thedesire to maintain the "bond of peace andlove," w e must undertake an examinationof this whole problem of tensions; of theLiberal vs. Conservative debate; of thedispute between so-called Right and Leftw i th in the Church. If w e make an objectiveexamination and study of the problem, Ithink we will f ind little malice in the majorityof our readers. W e wil l probably also f indthat there is little need to change toomuch in our editorial conduct or direction.From my o w n observations, I have arrivedat the conclusion that the heart of thematter in relation to tensions wi th in theChurch lies in the area of ignorance ofsome basic principles.
W h e n I say ignorance, I do not meanstupidity, which implies an inability to learn.All that is wrong is that some of our fel low
Catholics just have not studied the principleswhich underlie the Catholic approach tomany questions, the source of the Catholicapproach-doctr ine, papal encyclicals andHierarchial guidance, have not been madeavailable, in manageable ways, to this levelof readership. This is the main reason w h ysome editors are at pains to publish Churchdocuments in their entirety. Still, the furthertask of breaking open these doctrinal andPapal packages remains to be done. W emust try to do this in editorials and otherarticles.
W e must at tempt to present in ournewspapers and magazines healthy andpermitted diversity (outside of faith andmorals) whi le still retaining the paper'seditorial identity or personality. Wha t isimportant is that our readers are not"chea ted " through editorial pride or pre-judice of essential news, information orinstruction.The Catholic editor must give agood example when expressing the freedomwhich he so rightly demands.
Whi le these are troublesome t imes forthe Catholic Press, they are also t imes ofopportuni ty to produce a product wor thyof the New People.
The freedoms of the Catholic Presscarry with them tremendous responsibilities.And one of the reasons for our presentdecline can be traced to some abuse ofthese freedoms. All of us are touched byit. Al l of us must accept some responsibilityfor confusing liberty w i th license. Therehas also been the spectacle of public"b raw l i ng " by some editors in disputesw i th their Bishop-publishers. Nothing ismore demeaning to authority and nothingis more hurtful to authority, than to be madethe scapegoat for some of the personalinadequacies from which we editors (amongothers) suffer.
I don ' t think anyone has any morescars than I have in crusading in and outof the Catholic Press for what I havebelieved to be right and just. But I do notnow think that there ever should be a t imewhen w e should use "scatter g u n " tacticsto publicize real or imagined suffering ofabuses of authority. There was a t ime whenI was perhaps tempted to think differently.I don't think it's a question of onemel lowing. I think it's a question of onelearning.
What I am getting at is that the Fathersof Vatican II settled an awful lot for Catholiceditors and gave us, as wel l as the rest ofthe members of the People of God, a life-t ime of work in reform and renewal, per-sonal and collective. The bishops w h o leadus have assumed awesome responsibilities,the documents of Vatican II have createda heavier burden for bishops in their ministryof service.
I think it 's t ime that at least editorsquit sniping at those in author i ty- i f for noother reason that it's hurting us more in theeyes of the majority of the People of God.

Resurrection has something for everyone
Bv MSGR. JAMES I . WALSH.
All during these weeks theChurch insists we reflect on the truthof the resurrection of the Lord.
It sounds like a cliche, it hasbeen said so often, but Easter makeslife worth living. There is a freshnessto the thought, however, when theimagination tries to construct aworld in 1979 without the reality ofthe resurrection.
Let's say, for example, that theRoman soldiers had handed to theRoman authorities a mere routinereport with a bored joke about thestrain of guarding a tomb; that thePharisees never had reason to stopgloating for the rest of their lives;that the apostles faced each un-welcome dawn with the settledfeeling of despair and disillusionmentas they were forced to return to theirboats.
THE HUGE stone remainedbefore the tomb as immobile as Mt.Thabor. The people, who had puttheir trust in Christ, turned back totheir drab, meaningless lives withenduring bitterness and cynicism.The cross remained what it alwayswas-an instrument of torture and asymbol of disgrace, and no onedreamed of associating it with lovenor of linking suffering to happiness.
Who can imagine what the worldwould be like now —two millenialater?
No. Even the atheist should begrateful to the fact of theresurrection, as he mocks Christiandoctrine, because he has been livingoff its substance, warmed un-consciously by the fire of its eternalhope, enjoying a civilization madepossible by its ideals.
It is indeed Easter which makeslife worth living. These last coupleweeks peoples of all nations havelifted up their hearts with joy andgratitude. Why? Because the soldiersdid see the tomb burst open as Jesusemerged; the Pharisees did indeedstop their strutting and once againset about plotting against Jesus,nowtrying to kill the fact of his victoryover death; the apostles were indeedroused from their grief at the sight ofthe risen Lord.
Therefore as the centuries rolledon, uncounted millions of people inevery part of the world found a new,valid meaning in life, a reason forhope, a sure direction to followthrough life. They came to embracethe loathsome cross lovingly . Theylearned to turn pain and oppression,trials and heartaches into super-
natural assets in imitation of theirredeemer. They believed in this sofirmly they willingly gave their lives.
THE FACE of the earth beganto change as men, women andchildren shaped life in this worldtowards residence in an eternal homeand expressed their love and longingin works of mercy and trasures of art.
At the basis of it all was theunshaken belief that Someone had atlast come back from the grave. Christhad kept his promise. He conqueredthe enemy man had never defeated —death. He threw open the mysteriousdoors of death and showed the clearway to another world and anotherlife.
History tells of the impact thisfact made on the pagans. To themdeath was the supreme tragedy —the end of all things. With goodreason they buried their dead withfaces towards the west — as if theyhad seen their last sunset. When lifewas intolerable, death had no betterpromise than annihilation.
Now this dreaded doom wasproved by the Lord to be a fable. Toall the homeless of earth, Jesus of-fered a kingdom of lasting happinessand membership in the family ofGod.
The new religion preached as itsfoundation the fact of theresurrection. This was the basis of allfaith. On this the teachings of Christrested. On this belief the Church wasbuilt. An empty tomb, angelicwitnesses, transformed apostles inthe upper room, hundred ofprivileged ones who saw Jesus in theforty days after his return. Theyheard his voice, saw him eat, touchedhis wounds. He was the same Lord —and yet different. He was glorified.
To the unbelieving, theresurrection remains a stumblingblock. Each new generation alwayshas its cynics who try to explain itaway — often with the kind of"proof" that demands more faiththan the Risen Jesus does.
However, to the believers thiscrowning mirable of his mortal lifehas lost none of its power. In our timethe Church is stressing the wholePaschal Mystery of the sufferings,death and resurrection of ourRedeemer. To the well disposed, itgives as much hope as the apostlesreceived. To the weary and sad andsuffering, it offers the same comfortand assurance the early Christiansreceived.
Local man authors population study.By DICK C0NKL1N.
If you ever give a pro-life talk toa group of high school or collegestudents you can expect a livelyquestion and answer session. One ofthe subjects that is sure to come up ispopulation, and the claims by somepeople that abortion is needed toprevent a "population explosion" inour country. In reality the reversemay be true, since the Americanbirthrate has dropped off sharplysince 1973, plunging below theoriginal "zero population growth"goal.
An important study onpopulation has been published by theUnited States Coalition for Life,which was written by a South Floridaman, Col. Robert X. de Marcellus, ofPalm Beach. He is theInspector General of the FloridaArmy National Guard and in civilianlife is an advertising and marketingexecutive and a mutual fund director.He is married and has six children,ages 4 through 16. He is a brother ofPalm Beach County pro-life leaderRoland de Marcellus.
ALTHOUGH HIS paper, "ThePopulation Slowdown — A Challengeto the Military", was written to drawattention to the impact of the fallingbirthrate on our nation's defensecapabilities, it also projects someeffects upon the various groups thatmake up our population, as well asthe impact on social securitybenefits, taxes, and labor produc-
tivity.People who study population
trends, called demographers, are ableto study the birth and death ratesamong various "subgroups" in thepopulation, and use these trends topredict some conditions in the future.For example, over the last centuryFrance moved from a nation with thelowest fertility rate to one of thehighest. One of the reasons given forthis was the high birthrate of family-oriented Catholics while others in thepopulation had fewer children. Thusthe Catholic minority became themajority over a period of time.
It is expected that the number ofyoung people in the population basewill remain fairly constant, while thenumber of people over 65 will in-crease sharply — over 40 per cent in25 years. The Social Security Ad-
ministration expects that, within afew years, expenditures for old agesurvivors will exceed taxes comingin. New sources will have to be used
De Marcellus, in his observationof the high rise in the number ofabortions, said that other factors,such as the ability to predict the sexof the child (many parents wouldabort one of the unwanted sex) wouldcause this rate to climb even farther.(Not mentioned, but sure to become afactor, is the recent introduction ofhome pregnancy test kits and Up-john's research on a do-it-yourselfabortion drug.)
A study of population trendswill define the "replacement level" asthe average number of children perfamily needed to maintain a stablepopulation. That number is always2.0 , ideally, since two children
will replace their parents. A fertilityrate that is less than 2.0 will even-tually cause a decrease in thepopulation. (Technically, slightlymore than 2.0 children per couple isneeded to allow for children who diebefore they replace themselves withoffspring or are infertile.)
Col. de Marcellus used NewYork City as an example of the effectabortion can have on the population.Right after the Supreme Court rulingthe "white, non Catholic" fertilityrate dropped to 1.0, lowering thecity's overall rate to 1.6.
High school and college studentsshould be particularly interested inthis study when the subject comesup. But it should be recommendedreading for anyone not yet convincedthat the abortion mentality is havinga negative effect on our society.
Our God is consuming fire(Continued from P age 6)
Furthermore, our posit ion as modernevangelists give us the oppor tun i ty toconstruct ively assist the hierarchy indisseminat ing the Good News in all itsmanifestat ions.
Editors have a special obl igat ion toloyalty, inspired by charity, and in greaterunderstanding of the post-Conciliar role ofbishops. W e must never be subservient,but w e do need t o extend that spiri t of
service and concern wh i ch should be thehallmark of the Amer ican Catholic Press.
If w e treat our editorial vocat ion as apart of the general Christian apostolate; ifw e can rekindle the spirit of object iv i ty;if w e can refind the courage to defend andpropagate essential truths, then our currentdecline wi l l be arrested. Our readers wi l lthen support us wi l l ingly because w e wi l lhave become a service, essential to theirSalvat ion.

Msgr. Egan said the firstpriority is caring about the Churchbecause in the midst of conflict, all ofus tend to become angry, "maybeeven to forget about the commongood of the Church itself."
"SECONDLY, IT is importantto do what Pope John Paul II did inthe opening sections of his firstEncyclical," he said, "remind our-selves that we need the Church, careabout it, and be prepared tosubordinate some of our own per-sonal needs and concerns to itscommunal well-being. Why? Notbecause the Church as anorganization is so special, butbecause it represents, it is, the livingpresence of Christ in the world. TheChurch is important because eachperson in important; the Church isimportant because it knows, trulyknows that every person is of fun-damental worth, possesses thatamazing dignity, that human historyhas meaning and human life haspurpose.
"Getting all that straight, youand I can return to the fray, to thenitty-gritty of Church work, knowing
that we have some clear priorities.We can evaluate proposals for actionin the Church on the basis of thatquestion. Do they contribute to thebuilding up of the Church as acommunity of faith and to thepromotion of its evangelical missionof redemption and liberation?
"So, let's turn the key, let'sdetermine here and now that we aregoing to learn about and talk aboutthe social mission of the Church. Weare going to teach it in ourpublications. We are going to apply itto our communities, that we aregoing to begin to examine the greatissues confronting the Church andthe world in light of our faith whichincludes the social teaching of thePopes, Vatican II and the Synods.The times are alive with promise andperil; we can, we must, make adifference."

Hispanics creating Church model——\By ARACELI CANTERO
Voice Spanish Editor
A new model of theChurch is emerging amongSpanish speaking Catholics inthis country and such a modelis not being created by an eliteof theologians.
It is the result of aprocess of reflection by thepeople at the grassroots leveland one where the voice of themigrant worker counts asmuch as that of thesophisticated professional.
At least this is theopinion of the handful ofpeople who make up theAdvisory Council, of theSpanish Speaking Secretariatwhich functions under thisnation's bishops.
HEADED BY PabloSedillo Jr., the Secretariat isthe only structure of its naturedirectly connected to theNational Council of CatholicBishops (NCCB), and it isunder direct collaborationwith them that, in the fewyears of its existence, thisbody has managed to raisenational awareness about thepastoral needs of Spanishspeaking Catholics, and abouttheir potential as evangelizersand leaven of their ownpeople.
"We are building our ownpastoral model, and we aredoing without relying onexternal forces," says FatherEdgar Beltran, a pastoralexpert from the nationalSecretariat.
From his post inWashington, D.C., Fr. Beltranhas followed the life of theHispanic groups around thecountry. He has also visitedthem and responded to theirhunger for expertise in thebuilding of 'Basic EcclesialCommunities' (Comunidadeseclesiales de Base), where thepeople can share their faith ina more personal way.

Family programsare on the move
By Mimi and Terry R e i l l y ^
So what is happening to:
families in the Archdiocesethese days?
What is happening in ourparishes, specifically instrengthening family life thesedays? From what we arehearing at the Family Enrich-ment Center, we'd say plenty.Over forty parishes haveinstalled Parish Family LifeCouples, trained by theCenter.
These couples promotefamily awareness, projectsand programs in theirparishes. Programs from"Evening for Parents",Family Celebration Days,
Parish Marriage PreparationEvenings, Family Nightmonthly meetings, andmonthly anniversay Masses,are but a few things going onin our parishes for FamilyLife.
AT THE CENTER itselfthe Bereaved Parentsorganization continues tomeet the 1st. Sunday of eachmonth. A group of BereavedParents for Spanish speakingis beginning Holy Saturdayand will be hosted by LittleFlower in Coral Gables.

and they will forward thenames for reservations here atthe Family EnrichmentCenter.
The Center ran two pilotprograms this year. The first,done in the fall, trainedmarried couples as "MarriageMinistry teams", to work inabout a dozen parishes. Thecouples underwent 50 hours oftraining, put on by our DadeCatholic Social Service Office.The couples are now helpingother couples in their parishwho may be experiencingsome marriage difficulties.Don't we all? How reassuringto know there are trainedcouples to listen to us and helpwhen we ask.
THE OTHER pilotprogram introduce thisspring, trained people to teachparents how to teach theirown children about sex. Asparents we need all the helpwe can get in sharing withour children about sexuality.Living ina cockeyed world andhaving negative attitudesconstantly, bombarding usand our children on T.V. andin the movies makes this taskvery difficult. These days it isso hard to share the truebeauty of sex within thesacrament of matrimony.This fall this course will beoffered in your parishes.
A course called PositiveParenting has been done invarious places in the Arch-diocese this school year andhas been warmly received bythe people who attended.Natural Family Planningclasses have also been offeredin a number of locations in thearchdiocese. Yes, lots ofthings are stirring around ourdiocese for strengtheningfamilies.
COME ANOTHER fewmonths 1980 FAMILY YEARwill arrive. Last May inChicago the United StatesBishops voted unanimouslyfor a pastoral plan for familiesin the United States. Part ofthe plan is to celebrate 1980 asFamily Year. Come Novemberall the parishes in the countrywill receive idea kits to helpcelebrate the year within theparish and within the familiesthemselves. Of course as anArchdiocese we have hopesand dreams to make 1980 andthe years to follow a continouscelebration of Family values.
Calvin Coolidge back inthe twenties said, "Look tothe hearth stones, there liesthe hope for America". Withstrong family life our countryand our church will flourish.Let's all stay committed tothat goal!

"I THINK IT ISgenerally agreed upon bypsychiatrists, psychologistsand marriage counselors, thatif there's trouble in the sexualarea, that's more of a symp-tom than a cause.

Father Flanagan saidthat faith is an important partof family and marriageproblems, but he only bringsit up if they bring it up.
"If they bring up religion,if they mention God, then Iwill use it as an issue incounseling," he said.

Archbishop McCarthysaid, "I mourn the death ofAbp Furey. I had come toknow and admire him duringthe years I served with him inthe southwest. He gave the
inspiring example of a bishopwho had totally embraced hispeople. He loved and wasproud of his archdiocese andhis state. He served withenthusiasm and optimism andjoy. In that same spirit, mayhe now be enjoying the eternalhappiness which the Lord hasprepared for his good andfaithful servant."

First permanent deacons to be ordainedSt. Mary's Cathedral will be the
setting for the ordination of eighteencandidates to the Order of ThePermanent Diaconate. The ordainingprelate will be the Archbishop of
.Miami, The Most Reverend EdwardA. McCarthy, on Sunday, April 29that 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
The Candidates, eleven Angloand seven Hispanic, represent thefirst class of Ordinandi of theProgram which was begun by the lateArchbishop Coleman F. Carroll inMay, 1977.
Since the covening of the firstclass in October 1977 for spiritualformation, both at St. John VianneyCollege Seminary, Miami, oneevening a week, and at St. Vincent dePaul Seminary, Boynton Beach, oneweekend a month, October throughApril, the Candidates have un-dergone a regimen of training andformation not too different from that
of candidates for the priesthood, butin a much more modified form. Theregular seminary staff, and a numberof priests involved in pastoral workthroughout the Archdiocese, havecomprised the faculty.
The Candidates, upon ordinationfor the most part, will serve part timein a variety of apostolates in theirhome parishes in close cooperationwith their parish priest and hisassociates. They are all married withresponsabilities to their families andtheir full time occupations which takeprecedence over their life-longcommitment to the Church throughthe Permanent Diaconate.
Inasmuch as the Program is nowof three years' duration, the or-dinandi will be required to undergoan additional year's post ordinationformation, beginning in September1979. Including the ordination class,there are twenty-eight candidates
now in the program, eighteen in thesecond year and ten in the first year.An additional number of men are nowin the final stages of consideration foradmission into the program thiscoming September. The program willthen have reached its full com-plement of candidates for a completethree year program.
The Candidates who will beordained on April 29th at theCathedral, are:
Jose AIonso,Commercial Artist,St. Brendan Parish; ManuelCanovaca, Office Manager, St.Timothy Parish; Norman Carroll,Chiropractor, St. Anthony Parish; -Diego Chavez, Plant Manager, St.John Bosco Parish; AnthonyD ' A n g e l o , M a n u f a c t u r e r sRepresentative, Visitation Parish;Jose Garcia, Executive Manager, St.Brendan Parish; Tom Gato, SchoolPrincipal, St. James Parish; Jorge
Gonzalez, Medical SalesRepresentative, St. Agatha Parish;Manuel Gonzalez, Co-owner, Marula>St. John The Apostle Parish; GeraldHumphreys, Director, AmericanMedicorp Management Services, St.David Parish
Louis Johnson, Lieutenant,Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office,St. Luke Parish; George Mickwee,Banking Executive, St. MauriceParish; Walter Moncsko, Swim-ming Pool Contractor, St. PeterParish, Naples; Ray Ortega, LeadMaintenance Engineer, St. BenedictParish; Rodolfo Padron, President,American Export Trading, St. JohnBosco Parish; Wilbur Rollins, At-torney, St. Louis Parish; RichardShaw, Insurance Agent, St. TimothyParish; Richard Tourigny, SeniorBuyer, Pratt and Whitney Aircraft,St. Luke Parish.
Hispanics are creatingChurch model
World Rosary march slated
(Continued from Page 11)Administrative Committee ofthe NCCB, created a specialTask Force to study theEncuentro conclusions and seethat they would become in-tegrated into national policy.
"Thus the vision ofHispanics that emerged fromthe bottom up, becomes policyat the national leveli," saysSedillo.
"But our role does notend there," he adds. "Thestructural process at the leveJof committees is somethingvery slow which does not
interest the majority of thepeople at the grassroots. Ourtask is to keep the people inconstant reflection so thatmore and more Hispanics getinto the process, and becomeactive participants,"
Most dioceses in thecountry have now establishedan office for HispanicCatholics, and these are linkedto the National Secretariatthrough one of the fiveregional directors in thenation. Regional directors aswell as the heads of RegionalPastoral Centers, and the
heads of national apostolicmovements, meet periodicallywith Sedillo and his staff, andmake up his advisory body."We share about what isgoing on in our areas... and wereflect about the image of theChurch which is emergingamong our people," saysFather Ricardo Ramirez, whoheads the Mexican AmericanCenter in San Antonio. Hebelieves this is the beginningof deep theological reflectionfrom "our Hispanic per-spective in this country.Something never donebefore," he adds.
The International RosaryMarch, which is observedthroughout the world on thesame date and at the samehour, will take place in WestPalm Beach on Sunday May6th at 3 p.m., from"Pfovidencia Park" (acrossfrom Good SamaritanHospital) to St. Anne'sChurch.
This year the generalintention of the march is :"worldwide humility."
This march which wasstarted only 3 years ago, hasnow spread to all the con-tinents. Here in the States, itwas held last year in over 150cities with 120,000 peopleparticipating.
What is significant isthat this march is held at the
same hour around the world:our 3 p.m. Eastern StandardTime means 10 a.m. in Alaska,7 p.m. in Spain, 8 p.m. in Italyetc. Thus people marching andreciting the Rosary feelspiritually united all aroundthe world.
This march in West PalmBeach is sponsored by severalparish groups with the ap-proval of the local Ec-clesiastical authority.
All people, Catholics andnon-Catholics, are cordiallyinvited to participate and toassemble in the ProvidenciaPark around 2:30 p.m., onSunday May 6th. All thosewho wish to volunteer theirservices in organizing themarch, please contact Mrs.Connie Showen 832-1561.

La persona antes que los intereses politicosCIUDAD DEL VATICA-
NO (NC) — "La persona huma-na nunca debe ser sacrificada aintereses politicos nacionales ointernacionales," dijo JuanPablo II ante la Junta de Di-rectores del Instituto Interna-cional para los Derechos delHombre.
Senalando que la doctrinade la Iglesia siempre ha sidoclara sobre el aspecto, el Paparecordo que Pio XII "in-cansablemente urgio a los ca-tolicos para que colaborasenactivamente con los hombresde buena voluntad en las orga-nizaciones destinadas a prote-jer los derechos humanos, ta-les como Las Naciones Unidasy otras honorables institu-ciones."
El Papa alabo a su antece-sor por causa "considerable
progreso en la reflexion de laIglesia sobre el caracter in-violable de la persona, la dig-nida de las familias, las prerro-gativas y los limites de la auto-ridad publica, los derechos delas minorias etnicas, el de-recho a la publica expresion deopiniones, el derecho a la liber-tad politica, los derechos delos refugiados, presos, perse-guidos.. y el derecho al cultode Dios, privado o publico."
El Papa dijo que sus suce-sores Juan XXIII y Pablo VIhabian desarrollado aquellasideas y seiialo que el compro-miso de la Iglesia en la defensay la promocion de los derechoshumanos "brota del Evange-lio, donde se puede encontrarla mas profunda expresion dela dignidad del hombre y lamas urgente motivacion paralos esfuerzos en la promocion
de sus derechos.""La Iglesia, Ustedes ya lo
saben," dijo el Papa, "concibesu tarea dentro del marco de sumision de servicio a la plena
salvacion del hombre, redimi-do por Cristo, como he presen-tado en mi primera enciclica"El Redentor del Hombre," di-jo el Papa.
El trabajo por los derechoshumanos, dijo el Papa, debeser ocasion de una mayor uni-dad entre los hombres debuena voluntad.

Eduque a un seminarista diga si a colecta del 29Queridos amigos en Cris-
to:Todos nos damos cuenta
de la importancia de proveersacerdotes para las necesida-des futuras de la Arquidiocesisde Miami. La preocupacionpersonal de ustedes en estesentido ha quedado bien de-mostrada en sus continuos es-fuerzos por promover las voca-ciones en la parroquia y en suaceptacion de la pesada res-ponsabilidad de educar anuestros seminaristas.
Por medio de los interesesde un Fondo Parroquial por lacantidad de $50,000.00 es po-sible educar a un seminaristadurante los anos que toma sueducacion en el seminario. Es-
te Fondo Parroquial para elSeminario se establece a per-petuidad; tan pronto se ordenaun candidato, se asignan a otroseminarista los beneficios queel Fondo produce. De esta for-ma, cada persona que contri-buye al Fondo tiene la oportu-nidad de compartir ano trasano en las oraciones y el minis-terio de sus sacerdotes.
Un Fondo para el Semina-rio usualmente se obtiene me-diante donaciones que puedenser grandes o pequenas. Aun-que hay pocas personas quepodrian costear un Fondocompleto, muchos miles depersonas si pueden contribuirpara completar un Fondo me-diante sus donaciones a estacolecta anual o tambien
pueden dejar una cantidad des-tinada a este fin de su testa-mento.
La Colecta Anual para elFondo Parroquial del Semina-rio tendra lugar el domingo 29de abril de 1979. De nuevoquiero hacer una llamada a lagenerosidad de ustedes paraque ayuden a la educacion denuestros seminaristas, loscuales en el futuro les servirancomo sacerdotes de la Ar-quidiocesis.

Al menos esto es lo quepiensa el punado de personasque forma el Consejo Asesordel Secretariado Nacional His-pano de la Conferencia deObispos de la nacion.
"Nos reunimos comoequipo para profundizar y ana-lizar las implementacion de lasconclusiones del II EncuentroNacional de Pastoral Hispa-na," dice Pablo Sedillo Jr. di-rector del Secretariado Na-cional
"Queremos establecer unavision comunitaria de Iglesiaque responda realmente a lasnecesidades pastorales delpueblo hispano. Y no es quenosotros seamos los unicos areflexionar, sino que tratamosde que el pueblo continue refle-xionando a nivel de base,"

Anteriormente, la aten-cion prestada a los hispanoshabia sido mayoritariamentede tipo social.
"Estamos creando un mo-delo pastoral propio, y lo esta-mos haciendo sin depender defuerzas externas," dice elpadre Edgar Beltran, asesorpastoral del Secretariado Na-cional.
Desde su puesto enWashington, D.C., el padreBeltran ha seguido la vida delos grupos hispanos en todo elpais. Tambien los ha visitado,respondiendo al hambre quehan ido expresando por sabermas sobre los procesos para laformacion de pequenas comu-nidades de base, donde la gen-

El Vaticano condena escritos de teologoCIUDAD DEL VATICANO
(NC)— La Congregacion Vati-cana para la Fe y la Doctrinaha condenado las ideas expre-sadas por el teologo dominicofrances Jacques Pohier, sobrela resurreccion de Cristo y lavida despues de la muerte.
En una declaracion hechapublica el pasado 3 de abril, lacitada congregacion vaticanadijo que el libro "Quand je disDieu" (Cuando yo digo Dios)del padre Pohier, contiene afir-maciones "que manifiestamen-te no estan en conformidad conla revelacion y el magisterio dela Iglesia".
El Vaticano habia ya ini-ciado un contacto con el padrePohier a traves de sus supe-
riores. El sacerdote dirige ungrupo de investigaciones teolo-gicas en el Instituto Catolicode Paris. El Vaticano dijo quehabia invitado al teologo "aretractarse publicamentesobre las opiniones expresadasen su libro y a expresar su ple-na adhesion a la doctrina de laIglesia".
El padre Pohier no dio su-ficientes clarificaciones a lademanda, segun informo lacongregacion vaticana.
Segun el Vaticano, entrelos errores mas evidentes de laobra en cuestion, deben notar-se la negacion de las siguientesverdades: "la intencion porparte de Cristo de dar un senti-do redentor y sacrificial a supasion; la resurreccion corpo-
ralde Cristo y su permanenciacomo sujeto real al final de suexistencia historica, la exis-tencia eterna, la resurreccion yla vida eterna con Dios comovocacion del hombre y la ma-jer. Tambien la presencia deuna verdadera doctrina en laEscritura, con sentido objetivo;reconocible por la fe y que elmagisterio de la Iglesia con laasistencia del Espiritu Santopuede determinar como auten-tico".
"A estos errores se anadeny mezclan toda una serie deafirmaciones peligrosas," dicela Congregacion Vaticana,"tan ambiguas y de tal natura-leza que dan lugar en la mentede los fieles, a incertidumbressobre articulos fundamentales
de la fe", dice.La declaracion esta firma-
da por el cardenal Franjo Se-per, Prefecto de la Congrega-cion para la Doctrina, y por elarzobispo Jerome Maher, susecretario. En ella se afirmaque el mismo Juan Pablo II laaprueba y ordena su publica-cion.
El Vaticano, en su declara-cion, llama la atencion "sobrela gravedad de los errores men-cionados y sobre la imposibili-dad de considerarlos materiaopinable para los teologos".
Es la primera vez que des-de el Concilio, el Vaticano haceuna condena publica de estacategoria sobre la obra de unteologo.

Despues de 8 anos de viday mas de 5,000 personas encontacto con el Movimiento,los Encuentros Familiares yatienen hogar.
Encontrar una casita quepudiera albergar los suenos ylas realidades dp cerca de 1,000familias hispanas de la archi-diocesis, fue tarea larga. Almenos asi lo cuentan Julio yLuisa Alvarez, el matrimoniocoordinador de los EncuentrosFamiliares, al escribir el ba-lance anual en la revista delMovimiento:
"El ver convertido en unahermosa realidad la adquisi-cion de nuestra casa de ejerci-cios espirituales, tras dos anosde planeamiento, busqueda,desaliento en algunas oca-siones, y en fin, trabajo in-tenso, hace que este se convier-ta en quizas el acto cumbre de1978",dicen.
"Gracias a Dios y al es-fuerzo de muchos, contamoscon un sencillo hogar que nossirve de oficina, centro dereuniones y Casa de EjerciciosEspirituales", anaden.
"Yo he sentido claramentela mano de Dios en todo esto",dice el padre Florentino Az-coitia S.J., Director Espiritualdel grupo. El pasa gran partede su tiempo en la casa, dedi-cado a la orientacion y direc-cion espiritual de los matrimo-nios y tambien de los jovenes.Ademas organiza periodica-mente retiros espirituales, detres dias, para los diversosgrupos, segun las edades.

Hispanos: pueblo de Dios en marcha(VienedelaPag. 1A)te puede compartir la fe de mo-do mas familiar y personali-zante.
Tanto a traves de las visi-tas del padre Beltran como porel dialogo constante de PabloSedillo con los obispos de cadadioeesis, el Secretariado ha idoestableciendo una red de co-municaciones que ha dado lu-gar a toda una estructura sur-gida de la base, con oficinasdiocesanas y regionales y tam-bien Institutos pastorales parala formacion de lideres y pro--iocion de encuentros. De estemodo el pueblo hispano ha pa-sado de una etapa de concien-cientizacion a un proceso deprofundizacion sobre su pro-pia identidad como Iglesia.Durante menos de diez anos,los catolicos hispanos han vi-vido dos Encuentros Naciona-les de Pastoral, el ultimo deellos conto con un proceso departicipacion activa de mas de1000,000 personas.
Realizado en Washington,D.C. hace dos anos el SegundoEncuentro fue la culminacionde un proceso de reflexion enlas diocesis , en el que partici-paron tanto los campesinos co-mo los intelectuales. Durantemeses antes de las reuniones,cada comunidad, parroquia omovimiento apostolico recibio
materiales de trabajo sobreseis temas. La reflexion de losgrupos fue recogida a niveldiocesis y redactada en formade documento que fue luegovotado a nivel region por dele-gados elegidos por las comuni-dades. Los documentos re-gionales se recopilaron a nivelnacional por un grupo de ex-pertos que crearon un docu-mento de trabajo para el Segun-do Encuentro al que asistierondelegados de toda la nacion, yen el que se votaron unasconclusiones.
Al terminar el Encuentro,el episcopado nacional creo uncomite de obispos para estu-diar las conclusiones y lograrque sus contenidos pasaran aintegrarse en los respectivosdepartamentos de la Conferen-cia Episcopal.
"De este modo, la visioncreada por los hispanos desdela base, va pasando a norma."Dice Pablo Sedillo.
"Pero nuestra labor noacaba ahi, anade." El procesoestructural a nivel de comiteses algo lento que no dice nadaal pueblo. Nuestro papel eslograr que mas y mas genteentre en nuestro proceso dereflexion y se conviertan enagentes activos," dice.
Casi todas las diocesis conpoblacion hispana ya han es-

taDiecido una oficina de pasto-ral que se mantiene en con-tacto con el Secretariado Na-cional a traves de uno de losseis directores regionales de lanacion. Los directores regiona-les, asi como directores de losInstitutos Pastorales, coordi-nadores de movimientos apos-tolicos y organizaciones na-cionales, se reunen periodica-mente con Pablo Sedillo y suequipo y todos forman el Con-sejo Asesor del SecretariadoNacional. El grupo reflexionaen equipo sobre el proceso ensus regiones, y planifica enconjunto para la continua par-
ticipacion de las bases.Para el padre Ricardo
Ramirez, Director del CentroCultural Mexico Americano,MACC, el proceso hispano sedesarrollaa dos niveles:por unlado la reflexion del pueblosobre su realidad y su fe, y porotro la de los teologos o ex-pertos que elaboran un es-quema hacia una eclesiologiadesde esa realidad y que facili-tan que el pueblo siga refle-xionando.
"Pudiera pensarse que setrata de manipulacion desdearriba, pero de hecho es unproceso de mutualidad: tiene
que darse algun tipo de estruc-tura para que pueda darse laparticipacion de la base. Luegoha de existir un grupo— ennuestro caso el Secretariado ysu equipo—que pueda refle-xionar sobre lo que hablo elpueblo, dandole direccion, pa-ra luego volver a la profundi-zacion en la base. "Es un pro-ceso siempre abierto hacia elfuturo, nunca terminado ocerrado."
De ahi, quizas, que los ca-tolicos hispanos de esta nacionhayan querido definirse como"Pueblo de Dios en marcha."
Religiosas hispanas: evaluen su hispanidadEl proximo domingo
seis de mayo la Iglesia ce-lebra la Jornada Mundial deoracidn por las voca-ciones . Presentamos a con-tinuacion una reflexi6n dela coordinadora nacionaldel grupo HERMANAS

EDUCACION
<,Y que requisitos tenemosen cuanto a la educacion?Muchas de nuestras jovenes nohan tenido las mismas oportu-nidades que nosotros. Debe-mos darnos cuenta de su nivelde educacion. Yo creo que exis-ten las vocaciones entre losque no pueden leer muy bien yque ellos pueden predicar porsu manera de ser muchas vecesmejor que nosotros, que tene-mos mucha educacion. Segiinlo que se yo, no existen progra-mas de formacion que sean al-ternativas para nuestra gentehispana que quiere entrar enlas congregaciones de reli-giosas.' Pero juntos tenemoslas posibilidades de de-sarrollarlas.
El hecho de que no existanmuchas ahora no quiere decirque no puedan existir! Nuestrodesafio es de tratar de de-sarrollarlos y de traer anuestras jovenes hispanas aque compartan en nuestra vidaque debe ser "religiosa". Po-
demos empezar como empezoCristo, con una invitacion.^Cuantos hemos invitado a unjoven hispano o a una jovenhispana a que "venga y vea"lo que es la vida religiosa o lavida sacerdotal? ^Cuantas ve-
ces les hemos dado la oportuni-dad de reemplazarnos en el tra-bajo que estamos haciendo?Nos gusta nuestro trabajo y aveces es dificil dejar que otrapersona (laica o religiosa) nosreemplace.
iVivimos una vida senciliao hemos acumulado muchascosas? iTenemos demasiado?<,Es verdad que necesitamostodo lo que tenemos? iEstamosviviendo con los pobres de latierra? o <,nos hemos dejadoasimilar a la vida americanaque necesita tantas cosas ma-teriales?. icomo es nuestra ma-nera de ser? iy nuestra vida es-piritual? ^nuestras horas deoracion? iCuando y como reza-mos? iCreemos en Dios o ennosotros mismos?
Son preguntas que hagoporque son las cosas que vennuestros jovenes y ellosquieren rezar y participar enuna vida sencilia basada en lavida del evangelic Tenemosque ayudarnos los unos a losotros a profundizar nuestrasprop ias vocaciones y a vivirverdaderamente lo que profe-samos ser—cristianos, muje-res y hombres comprometidosa vivir como Maria la virgen,obediente a la voluntad deDios y comprometidos a res-ponder a la Palabra de Dios.(Tornado del boletin informati-vo: Entre Nosotros)
