XVIII No. 50 'Prayer, Penance necessary in Lent' Dearly Beloved in Christ: I am sure you have heard it said that the more things change, the more they remain the same. This is preeminently true of Lent, which is once again upon us with its age-old stirring of the. desire in our hearts to become ever more Christlike. In none of its essentials has Lent really changed; prayer and penance continue to be its clarion call. First let me say how firmly convinced I am that we would seriously delude ourselves were we to discount the necessity and importance of bodily mortification as we prepare to celebrate the Paschal Mystery. Although Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are the only days of obligatory complete fast and abstinence, a Lent without some restriction on what we eat and drink — except, of course, in the case of the ill and elderly — would hardly qualify as Lent at all. Accordingly, I urge that the traditional abstinence from meat be kept on the Fridays of Lent. In addition, I may be permitted the observation that simply not eating between meals would constitute penance of a high order for most Americans, adults and children alike. "During Lent," the Second Vatican Council declared, "penance should be internal and individual but also external and social." If fasting and abstaining are mainly internal and individual, there are other A special carnival arranged by Miami's Council of this toddler from investigating a nearby main.

Miami, Florida /THE VOICE / Friday, February 18,1977 I Page 3 Missionary attacks continue in Rhodesia SALISBURY, Rhodesia—(NC)— Authorities here said black nationalist guerrillas attacked another Christian mission in Rhodesia, stealing money and burning buildings, the day after terrorists killed seven white Catholic missionaries in another part of the country. Authorities also said a bomb threat forced a mission school for girls to close. No casualties were reported in the attack on a Scottish Reformed mission at Nyashanu in southeast Rhodesia, but the terrorists set fire to several buildings and took between $5,500 and $7,000 in cash. An Anglican-run school for girls in Bonda, 18 miles from the Mozambique border, suspended classes for its 300 students after it received a letter threatening to bomb the school. The Rhodesian government has launched a full-scale manhunt for the 12 terrorists who on Feb. 6 attacked St. Paul's (Catholic) Mission at Musami, about 35 miles northeast of Salisbury, and killed three Jesuits and four Dominical nuns. Facing charges by guerrilla units that Rhodesian government forces posing as guerrillas are behind the at- tacks, the government announced that it has ordered its troops to take the killers alive to prove that they were guerrillas.

There was cotton candy for them —and the canine poacher under the table, of dubious ancestry, with a sweet tooth —and Crackerjack, and drinks and cookies. And there were games of skill, pitching the ball of bean bags with a "winner" every time. The magic man was there too, to the delight of the noisy crowd. And to some real young, enough was enough.

BY MARY MAHER Restoring the meaning of Biblical words is one of the big tasks of our day. Many words such as the one we speak of here, "holiness," have been dislocated from their origins. They have picked up historical meanings which are alien to them. As we begin thinking of holiness we might ask ourselves: How do I image holiness? What mind

pictures do I have of holy men and women? Do they seem to share the same humanity which I do? Or are my images of them surrounded with pictures of removal from the rigors of daily life which I know?

But I thought on: Who to promise that men and women them perhaps would be culled out of has time to be holy—isn't that could achieve holiness on their own power given it by God.

The new rite of Penance is the last in a series of reforms of the sacraments begun by the Second Vatican Council. This new rite contains three forms: • Rite for Reconciliation of Individual Penitents • Rite for Reconciliation of Several Penitents with Individual Confession and Individual Absolution • Rite for Reconciliation of Several Penitents with General Confession and Absolution In each of those forms the word Reconciliation occurs. The use of this word for the sacrament of Penance comes as a new thing for most Catholics. What is its significance? Iii the biblical-Christian view, sin is a rejection of a relationship of love which God offers us. One who sins becomes The New Rite alienated from the relationship with God and the Church. If we view sin in this way as a state of alienation, then it seems rather natural to consider salvation in terms of reconciliation, that is, the repair or re-establishment of the love relationship that has been rejected by sin. It is through baptism that we are first and primarily brought into relationship with God in the new covenant of Christ Sin is conquered and new life con- ferred. This reconciliation is confirmed and furthered through the other sacraments of Initiation, Confirmation and the Eucharist. The role of the sacrament of Penance, then is located in a second stage, for it deals with the reconciliation required for sins committed after baptism. In fact, the sacrament of Penance was often described by the early Church Fathers as a "second baptism." Why': In the sacrament itself, the word "reconciliation" describe instrument of conversion, the whole process which takes revealing us to ourselves in our place. In it, God and man come alienation from him and calling back together again in peace and us to trust in his mercy and harmony. In the four basic parts power to heal and forgive us.

It is not going soft on sin, it is meant, rather, to Penance services may be celebrated in each parish provide a genuine Church structure for reconciliation at least several times per year. These services, in which with God in the Church. some may have already participated, consist of hymns, prayers, readings, a homily, and a common Rite of Reconciliation examination of conscience and petition for forgiveness. for Several Penitents There is opportunity for individual confession privately with General Absolution with a priest during the service. The new Rite of Penance also includes a service . These services are intended to take seriously that where general absolution is given and there is no telling we are a Church.

We adhere to the Lord only insofar as we adhere to one another in the Church. The Church's power to forgive sins goes even beyond this sacrament, even beyond the priests delegated to grant absolution. We are called upon to pray for one another at all times—for our continual conversion, for the forgiveness'of our sins. Penitential works can be done with and for other sinners. We may be called on to offer advice or counsel or fraternal correction in our work-a-day world. Often the most effective word which reveals an entanglement with sin is spoken not from the pulpit, /but by one who walks along the same path in life.

Sf, para decidir si lo que vamos a hacer es bueno o malo, hemos de formar nuestro jucio del que seremos responsables, pero no es nuestro juicio lo que hace que tal acci6n sea buena o mala. Su maldad o bondad la determina Dios mismo. Nosotros, hemos de esforzarnos en lo posible, por conocer la voluntad de Dios, segiin El nos la ha revelado. Como cristianos somos miembros de una comunidad de fe que es la Iglesia, la cual nos habla en nombre de Dios. Por ello hemos de escuchar la voz de la Iglesia. Tambien hemos de ejercer nuestra propia responsabilidad para vivir segun la voluntad Dios. Y eso es lo que quiere decir "seguir la propia £Q me dice Usted de 'reconcillacion"? conciencia"—una conciencia que tiene un juicio bien formado £No se dice ya 'penitencia' o 'confesion'? sobre lo que es la voluntad de Dios. A trav6s de los siglos, este sacramento ha ido recibiendo diversos nombres. A veces decfamos "voy a confesarme" porque lo que mas "Y el pecado mortal...^existe aun? nos preocupaba es el tener que 'confesar' los pecados. El t£rmino "RECONCILIACION" subrayala acci6n de Dios en el sacramento. Si. Entendemos que el pecado es herir o romper nuestra amistad Para la mayoria de los catolicos "penitencia" significa "algo duro con Dios. Pecado mortal es aquel por el que deliberadamente que hacer" o "lo que el sacerdote manda hacer para despu6s." ;Sf, claro!

Habra un nuevo lugar—una capilla para la reconciliaci6n en cada iglesia. Se puede permanecer sentado y hablar cara a cara con el sacerdote. S61o Dios sabe eso. Pero si podemos afirmar que aquellos que hacen un esfuerzo sincero por vivir cristianamente, no estan viviendo en pecado mortal, o separados de Dios. Pero hemos de "No s6 si me interesa que el sacerdote me preocuparnos no s61o por evitar el pecado mortal, sino tambien reconozca.
