AFRICA’S GOOD NEWS - Integral Evangelization In Africa
If we are Christian we are evangelists in one way or another. This new booklet by Fr Sean Wales, C.Ss.R. will help us un-derstand some of the implications of evan-gelization and guide us in our personal calling to spread the Good news of Jesus. Available after Mass at Southern Cross Table or in Repository and also from of-fice during the week. R50

THIS WEEK’S EDITORIAL: Responding to lies
Just a thought
TWIN PILLARS
Peter and Paul. The twin pillars of the Church were never separated either in the
ancient liturgy of the iconography
To Peter was given the responsibility for guiding and strengthening the other apos-
tles and for building up the Church. There couldn’t be a more urgent task in the new
community of faith and yet it was given to one who was, apparently, not only unpol-
ished but impetuous and unsteady in his own commitment –to the point of denial!
Paul started off (as Saul) persecuting the believers with a zest which left no one in
any doubt about his hostility to Jesus and his disciples.
Yet God used both these men –with their limitations- to do great things for the Peo-
ple of God. Jesus prayed for Peter and then showed his confidence in him by en-
trusting the Church to his guidance and care. When Paul was en route to Damascus
to further the persecution of Christians, Jesus appeared to him in a moment of dra-
matic conversion which transformed Paul into the greatest missionary in our tradi-
tion.
Yet their human limitations remained; when they met in Jerusalem the intensity of
their enthusiasms led to differences of opinion. In the power of the Spirit this
meeting of the two pillars led to a vital decision about the very meaning of the Gos-
pel and how it is to be lived in different cultural settings.
It was in Rome, where they were both martyred, that they were finally united in
that love which they strove to promote. In order to avoid stagnation the Church of
Peter and Paul must reconcile stability and movement, the overall view of the whole
body and the particular intervention of a charism. The Preface of their feast puts
it succinctly:
Peter, our leader in faith,
Paul, its fearless preacher.
Despite our limitations and failures, we too are called to take the lead and to preach
the good news with our lives. We have today’s saints to inspire us in that calling.
Happy feast day!
Fr Sean Wales,C.Ss.R.
