Both the UK and US Governments continue to maintain a 'we will neither confirm nor deny the existance of nuclear weapons' regarding these bombs that are stored on a base officially named as 'RAF Lakenheath' but which is in reality a British base occupied and controlled by America and unaccountable to the British public and Parliament. I enclose an item from the June 98 Nuke Watch Newsletter which may be of interest. SENATOR 98 A joint US/UK Nuclear Weapon Exercise called Diagonal Glance will take place at the RAF Locking near Weston Super Mare in Sept 98. The senario to be played will involve a US plane carrying nuclear weapons crashing while on route to the US from RAF Lakenheath. Stages of the exercise will also take place in MOD Whitehall and at AWE Aldermaston. At present over three hundred UK military personnel will be active during this week long exercise.

This has been an impressive gathering of members of the Franciscan Family worldwide, together with the respective Ministers General. The Chapter commemorated 800 years of Franciscan presence and history in the Church, ever since the approval of the first Form of Life written by Saint Francis and presented to Pope Innocent III in the spring of 1209. This issue of our Franciscan Review is dedicated in a special way to this event. It is important for all Franciscans, especially younger Franciscans in formation, to appreciate our roots and our history, in order to love our Family that has been one of the greatest achievements of the Catholic Church. I was talking to some of our young friars from the Holy Land Custody of the Friars Minor who took part in this Chapter of Quarterly journal of 88 Mats. Like many others of their age they returned enthusiastic and Franciscan culture published enriched by their experience. They told me that they appreciated since April 1986 the talks given by prominent Franciscan leaders and scholars, as well as the special audience given to them by Pope Benedict XVI at Computer Setting: Castel Gandolfo.

  • Franciscan Youth Today
    FRANCISCAN YOUTH TODAY XIII General Chapter of the OFS Sao Paolo, October 28, 2011 Ana Fruk, Presidency councilor for YouFra 1. YOUFRA AS AN ANSWER TO THE CHALLENGES OF OUR TIME When I was preparing this report, I was thinking about what the most important issues are for YouFra today. While I was reading different texts to prepare myself, I found words of blessed Pope John Paul II which he spoke during the Vigil for the Feast of Pentecost in 1998 and which also express a very clear call for Franciscan Youth: “Thus we see an urgent need for powerful proclamation and solid, in-depth Christian formation. There is so much need today for mature Christian personalities, conscious of their baptismal identity, of their vocation and mission in the Church and in the world! There is great need for living Christian communities! And here are the movements and the new ecclesial communities: they are the response, given by the Holy Spirit, to this critical challenge at the end of the millennium. You are this providential response.” Keeping in mind this last sentence: “You are this providential response”, I thought of the responsibility that Franciscan youth has towards the Church and society in which we live. Reading different documents of the OFS on YouFra, I see this same message is recognized by the OFS. That is why in the past several years the attention has been given to YouFra and its development. Here I would like to say a few words on several issues about YouFra which mostly coincide with the Conclusions of the last General Chapter held in Hungary – formation, presence in the world, communication and emerging fraternities.

"While we feel it's necessary for Pax Christi USA to publicly denounce India's decision to test nuclear weapons, we're also compelled to cry out against the hypocrisy and culpability of the other nuclear weapons states' continued reliance on nuclear deterrence," says Dave Robinson, program director at the Erie-Pa.-based headquarters of Pax Christi USA, the national Catholic peace orga nization. Quoting from a joint statement of Pax Christi International President Godfried Cardinal Danneels and World Council of Churches General Secretary Rev. Dr. Konrad Raiser, issued from Geneva just two weeks before the Indian tests, Pax Christi condemned the doctrine of nuclear deterrence and expressed "grave concern" over India's apparent embracing of "this morally corrupt" doctrine. "The choice", states Pax Christi USA, "is between a nuclear-weapons-free world for all, and a nuclear weapons free-for-all.
