Weekly Bulletin 12 July 2020 In the care of the Augustinians Cnr White & Wanganella Sts 2 King Street Parish Priest: Fr Dave Austin OSA 12th July 2020 [email protected] Parish Office: 9949 4455 15th Sunday Ordinary Time (yr A ) www.northharbourcatholic.org.au PASTOR’S PERSPECTIVE – ’Imagine… a Middle Class of Holiness!’ Dear Friends, Today’s Gospel of the Parable of the Sower helps us to reflect on our responsibilities as Church, as families, Parish and School Communities, and as Augustinians. God the Sower is almost wasteful in scattering the seeds wildly but then God’s love is like that. The parable could apply to the many areas of our lives where our openness to the Spirit varies – times when we are very receptive to God’s grace, times when we’re perhaps a bit shy, and times when we resist strongly. Life knocks us around – certainly our recent experience - but thankfully Jesus’ parables turn reality on its head. A seven-fold return was considered a good harvest but Jesus says otherwise, ‘Imagine… imagine the kind of seed that can produce up to a hundredfold in spite of the difficulties involved!’ Keeping our faith fresh is an engaging task at any time and we must ‘imagine’ and ’keep sowing’! Comments from parishioners ‘returning’ to our churches reflect relief and fresh energy that we can now gather again. Some of you may find spiritual support in a favourite ’app’. Pope Francis’ homilies and reflections can be found on the Vatican News App or the Click to Pray App. I find Laudate particularly helpful because it has a remarkable menu which includes the Prayer of the Church, the Daily Readings, prayers and devotions, the Order of Mass, the Catechism, 2 versions of the Bible, major Vatican documents from the Popes and Vatican II, and even the Code of Canon Law – in case I ever need it! Liturgy nourishes our faith! Even in the current ‘Ordinary Time’, for Christians the ordinary is rarely ordinary! Our Sunday journey is ‘ordered’, our ‘weekly Easter’, the most basic feast of our liturgical cycle. Sunday liturgy should bring us to life as we read from a particular Gospel, each with a different approach. In 2020, we read from Matthew and are invited to listen to those who proclaim the Word and to receive the Word in our hearts. Ordinary Time is not ‘time off’, never routine, but a time to journey with the Lord and reflect on how well we are living out the mysteries we celebrate in the festive seasons and how welcoming we are of others - How do we create a hospitable atmosphere as we gather? How do we welcome visitors and strangers? Do some go home sad? Some years ago, Pope Francis spoke about everyday holiness: To be sure, the testimony of faith comes in very many forms, just as in a great fresco, there is a variety of colours and shades; yet they are all important, even those which do not stand out. In God’s great plan, every detail is important, even yours, even my humble little witness, even the hidden witness of those who live their faith with simplicity in everyday family relationships, work relationships, friendships. These are the saints of every day, the ‘hidden’ saints, a sort of ‘middle class of holiness’, as a French author said, that ‘middle class of holiness’ to which we can all belong… Let us all remember this: one cannot proclaim the Gospel of Jesus without the tangible witness of one’s life. In our day, we need to listen to those who rarely come and seek to understand them. Thankfully, our God never deserts any of us and his grace continues to work in all. Ordinary Time can be a very rich time and lift us ‘out of the ordinary’! CATECHIST HELP FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2020 We are in need of some parishioners to fill in for our regular Catechist teachers (who are in the vulnerable group for Coronavirus) until the end of this year. If you think you can help out our Catechists, please ring Ursula on 0423 595 204. The times of classes needing teachers are: Kindergarten Seaforth PS: Wed 1:10-1:40pm Year 4 Seaforth PS: 11:45am-12:15pm Kindergarten Manly Vale PS: 9:00-9:30am Year 5 Balgowlah PS: 10:30-11:00am SUNDAY MASS ARRANGEMENTS Numbers in our churches are now being determined by the size of the church and the 4 sq m rule: Sunday Masses – REVISED number limits as follows: - St Kieran’s – 140 per Mass - St Cecilia’s – 80 per Mass NO Bookings required – All persons attending must SIGN-IN on arrival. Hygiene and Social Distancing - Please use the hand sanitiser and observe the marked seating (tick) and correct spacing. Families can sit together; If you are unwell, please stay at home. All are urged to follow medical advice. PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL NOMINATIONS—’The Church is open!!’ ‘Buildings are closed, not the Church. We are the Church… and we remain open in faith, hope and love!’ This important statement a few months ago heralded a new awareness among us as the spread of Covid-19 increased – a new awareness as Church! This was a call to action…. Well, it’s time again - time for action! We need nominations for membership of the Parish Pastoral Council for 2020 onwards. The PPC and its members serve the Catholic Community of North Harbour through Our Parish Mission to witness to and to proclaim the word of God and to pray and celebrate the Liturgy in word and sacraments so that we may be of service to others and form a community of “one mind and one heart on the way to God.’ (St Augustine). The PPC promotes our Parish Vision to be a community which is welcoming, friendly and hospitable; open to change, willing to learn, grow and collaborate; served by the rich diversity of our talent and ethnic composition; paying particular attention to the needs of families and youth; celebrating both socially and liturgically; striving to be Christ centred while reaching out to others Like to know more? Talk to a member of the PPC or one of the Augustinians. The Parish Office can arrange for a PPC member to contact you. NOMINATIONS PROCESS - Parishioners are invited to nominate a fellow parishioner to the PPC. Forms to facilitate this are available in our churches. Please give prayerful consideration as you reflect on this important duty and speak to the person beforehand. PLEASE RETURN THE ORANGE FORM TO THE PARISH OFFICE NO LATER THAN MONDAY 13 JULY 2020.

  • How the Catholic Church Sexual Abuse Crisis Changed Private Law
    CARDINAL SINS: HOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SEXUAL ABUSE CRISIS CHANGED PRIVATE LAW MAYO MORAN* ABSTRACT For several decades now, the unfolding of the Catholic Church sexual abuse crisis has been front-page news. It has wreaked havoc on hundreds of thousands of lives, cost the Church billions of dollars, and done irreparable harm to a once-revered institution. Along the way, it has also helped to transform the all- important private law of responsibility. When the crisis began to break in the early 1980s, the few survivors who sought legal redress faced a daunting array of obstacles. Limitations periods alone had the effect of barring almost all child sexual abuse claims. Immunities also helped to shield the Church. Private law itself was generally hostile to institutional liability, particularly where the harm resulted from the criminal act of an individual. All of that has changed. Among the catalysts for change within private law, the Catholic Church sex abuse crisis looms large. The scale of the crisis and the universal nature of the Church were certainly both important factors, but so too was the Church's response. From the initial impulse to cover up instances of abuse to choices made in the legal and political arenas, it appeared willing to do almost anything to protect itself. Yet the Church had traditionally bene®ted from special treatment precisely on the ground that it was not an ordinary, self-interested legal actor. The tension between the Church's mission and its approach to covering up abuse began to attract notice. Courts and legislators were prompted to act.

  • A Successful Provocation for a Pluralistic Global Society. The
    POLITICS & SOCIETY BRIEFING PAPER A successful provocation for a pluralistic global society The encyclical Laudato Si’ – A Magna Carta of integral ecology as a reaction to humanity’s self-destructive course Christoph Bals A successful provocation for a pluralistic global society GERMANWATCH Brief Summary This background paper explores the potential relevance within a pluralistic society of the important encyclical Laudato Si’ issued by Pope Francis in June 2015. It considers whether the encyclical documents a reflected faith that accepts the primacy of science in secular knowledge as well as the primacy of democratically elected governments, human dignity, and human rights in the political sphere. Laudato Si’ presents a paradigm shift from the im- age of the dominion of mankind over the rest of creation to universal fraternity with even weak and marginalised people as well as fellow beings threatened with mass extinction. The Pope carefully double codes the paradigm shift in scientific and theological terms. On this basis, the background paper explores whether this encyclical could provide new stimuli with- in a pluralistic society. The Pope presents it as a counter-strategy to strictly utilitarian ap- proaches, in which people experiencing social exclusion – the weak members of the ecologi- cal environment – are threaten to slip through the net. The encyclical therefore calls for the protection of common goods such as the environment and the climate and insists on finan- cial commitment for those affected by climate change. The background paper concludes with a discussion of whether religion can help to motivate the necessary collaborative action in a pluralistic society or what functional equivalents for this task might look like.

A dissertation by Daniella Zsupan-Jerome Director: Jane Regan, PhD ABSTRACT Internet-mediated communication is undoubtedly shaping our culture, especially the way we access, gain, produce, share and understand information. The Internet, a vast resource of content is also taking form as a social communication network, where online content mediates the presence of people animating this network, who are accessing, contributing to, sharing and connecting over information. This movement toward the social web has significant implications for the way we go about communicating, sharing knowledge and making meaning as a whole, giving way to an overall more participatory culture, both on and offline.
