NAPLES | With small American flags waving, beaming smiles and a few tears, 51 men and women from 24 different countries were sworn in as naturalized U.S. citizens during a June 11 ceremony in Naples. The new citizens proudly swore their oath of fidelity to the United States and joined in singing patri- otic songs and reciting the “Pledge of Allegiance” as a citizen for the first time. Adnir Melo of Brazil said the cer- emony was the culmination of a 10- year dream coming true. He imme- diately began wearing a pin with a U.S. flag on it and had trouble keep- ing his emotions under control.

This year, the students thought outside of the box. Way outside. In addition to the outreach to the nursing home residents, the students filled three Shelter Boxes with tents, blankets, wa- ter purification systems, stoves and tools for victims of natural disasters around the world. And thanks to an anonymous donor who added a box, four boxes are ready to be deployed when the next typhoon, earthquake or tsu- nami strikes. Each box costs $1,000 to fill, and during February, Epiphany Cathedral School Principal Mi- chelle Kroll issued a challenge to the school to raise enough mon- ey for one box. That challenge amounted to a little more than $100 per class for the kindergar- ten through grade-eight school. “I wasn’t really sure we could raise $1,000 all by ourselves,” said first-grade teacher Lisa Col- lins, the initiator of the service project. “We are a relatively small school.” The day after setting that goal, Kindergartners from Epiphany Cathedral Catholic School in Venice show off a Shelter Box which they helped buy with money they raised during Kroll announced that an anony- the school year.

Was the 1970s a decade that lived up to that lofty expectation as a “decade of remedy?” It certainly was a dynamic decade — from Watergate to Vietnam, from the legalization of abortion to the birth of a test tube baby. But it was also a time of change for the Church as well.

Instead he inaugurated his papacy with a Mass at the beginning of his ministry as supreme pastor.” Sometimes referred to as the “smiling pope,” Pope John Paul I also retired the papal sedia gestatoria — the portable throne.

As a living, breathing or- ganism, the Church can look upon the decade with some tears.

The one about religious freedom deals with a message by Pope John Paul II with an implied criticism of communist-ruled states, such as Poland. An editorial on divorce and marrage harkened the headline about marriage policy. The privacy headline served a story suggesting the dangers of S.I.N.

Throughout our 75th year we will publish a “look back” page where we delve into our archives and check out how a topic, event or decade was covered.
