  • Parish with a Mission by Geoff Pryor
    Parish with a Mission By Geoff Pryor Foreword - The Parish Today The train escaping Wellington darts first into one tunnel and then into another long, dark tunnel. Leaving behind the bustle of the city, it bursts into a verdant valley and slithers alongside a steep banked but quiet stream all the way to Porirua. It hurtles through the Tawa and Porirua parishes before pulling into Paremata to empty its passengers on the southern outskirts of the Plimmerton parish. The train crosses the bridge at Paremata with Pauatahanui in the background. There is no sign that the train has arrived anywhere particularly significant. There is no outstanding example of engineering feat or architecture, no harbour for ocean going ships or airport. No university campus holds its youth in place. No football stadium echoes to the roar of the crowd. The whaling days have gone and the totara is all felled. Perhaps once Plimmerton was envisaged as the port for the Wellington region, and at one time there was a proposal to build a coal fired generator on the point of the headland. Nothing came of these ideas. All that passed us by and what we are left with is largely what nature intended. Beaches, rocky outcrops, cliffs, rolling hills and wooded valleys, magnificent sunsets and misted coastline. Inland, just beyond Pauatahanui, the little church of St. Joseph, like a broody white hen nestles on its hill top. Just north of Plimmerton, St. Theresa's church hides behind its hedge from the urgency of the main road north. The present day parish stretches in an L shape starting at Pukerua Bay through to Pauatahanui.

  • (LOL) July 2021
    When he had finished eating, he said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep water LAUNCH OUT LETTERS (LOL) and let down your nets for a catch”. Luke 5: 4 July 2021 Welcome to the July 2021 issue. In this month’s issue we have Vicky Raw leading the reflection for the last Sunday Gospel on the feeding of the 5000. I am moved by her emphasis on the power of ‘littleness’. Jesus underpins this in the other parables (i.e. mustard seed, salt, yeast, children, etc.). We are a Church built on little acts of love. For a change,Bridget Taumoepeau on her regular section, succinctly unpacked the Eucharist. This came as a response to the controversial stand of some American bishops to ban Joe Biden from receiving the Holy Communion. Another issue that is in the news is the production of the movie about the Christchurch massacre. This points to the need to foster greater interfaith understanding. Timely enough we have Nick Polasheck, the Catholic representative of the Abrahamic Council share what he has learned from the Jews and the Muslims. Kevin Crighton shares his journey after graduating from Launch Out. It was not a bed of roses; a meandering path of finding his calling within the church. In the end, as in most cases, it found him. July LOL is a tapestry of the different changes and challenges that we are facing as people of God. The theme that weaves the articles together is service—as the heart of our calling, service great or small, service as Pope Francis puts it, “the only authority we have”.

More than 105,000 views in the first year! Please support Catholic Women Preach! From the Executive Director's Desk Several decades ago, I served as Executive Director of a domestic violence prevention agency and shelter offering women services intended to support them as they worked to end the abuse they suffered in their relationships. Women came into the shelter with one, two, three, or more children in tow. Women came into the shelter with bruises, both physical and emotional. Women came into the shelter crippled by a deep sense of shame. They had internalized messages from their abuser, family, friends, pastors, and society and they blamed themselves for their abuse and neglect. When they entered the doorway of the shelter, they became part of our lives and we became a part of theirs, if only for a short while. We sought to support them, shield them, defend them, offer them choices that would empower them, but most of all, we sought to honor them by letting them know in practical ways how deeply they were cherished, respected, and admired. In turn, their courage inspired us and taught us what it means to live and love with purpose in the midst of a war zone. Today, many women are braving the patronizing, demeaning, and destructive taunts of others as they declare their resistance to abuses they have experienced at the hands of too many men in power.

  • Media Statement from Cardinal John
    4 October 2019 Bishop Charles Drennan resigns as the Bishop of Palmerston North Cardinal John Dew, the Metropolitan Archbishop of New Zealand, today announced that Bishop Charles Drennan has resigned as the Bishop of Palmerston North. Bishop Drennan tendered his resignation to Pope Francis following an investigation into a complaint of unacceptable behaviour of a sexual nature. The complaint was made by a young woman. Pope Francis has accepted the resignation. Upon receiving the complaint, the New Zealand Church’s independent investigation body, the National Office of Professional Standards (NOPS), contracted an independent, licenced investigator to undertake an investigation under the oversight of Cardinal Dew. Bishop Drennan stood aside from his duties. Both Bishop Drennan and the young woman participated in the independent investigation. The young woman has been informed of his resignation and the Church is in ongoing contact with her. The Church is committed to giving continuing support to the young woman, her family and those around her. “The young woman has requested that details of the complaint remain private,” said Cardinal Dew. “It can be confirmed that Pope Francis has accepted the resignation. In the eyes of the Catholic Church, Bishop Drennan’s behaviour was completely unacceptable, and it fully supports the young woman for coming forward to NOPS,” said Cardinal Dew. The clergy, staff and church leadership of the Diocese of Palmerston North have been told of the acceptance of Bishop Drennan’s resignation and provided with guidance and resources to help them to support parishioners and other members of the Catholic community. The wider Church of New Zealand will also be advised and supported.
