August, was accused by law­ makers of fostering a climate of violence that culminated in the assassination Tuesday of Vice President Luis Argana. There were no suspects in the slaying, which prompted allegations of plotting from across Paraguay's political spectrum and accelerated attempts to impeach Cubas. Cubas’ resignation capped a nearly weeklong crisis that plunged Paraguay into politi­ cal turmoil, severely testing its fledgling democracy. More than 50,000 people crowded the square in front of the congressional building to celebrate Cubas’ resigna­ tion, waving Paraguayan flags and setting fireworks burst­ ing in the nighttime sky.

■ L e t te r t o t h e E d it o r ■ L e t te r to t h e E d it o r We Are Pax Christi Notre Dame

Tomorrow, the Stations of the Cross will be walked on this campus. This ritual is central to Christian tradition and still a powerful reminder of the violence indicted on Jesus and on his body today. , We reflect on what it means that this man, who is the very life of God, is mocked, tortured and executed. We rem em ber that he refused to meet the violence of his attackers with vio­ lence of his own. Indeed, the redemption won by Christ came through suffering, not through punishing. It came through the Cross, not through the sword. It came through turning the other cheek, not an eye for an eye. Such a way of life seems foolish, even dangerous. Rut the Stations of the Cross them­ selves rem ind us how dangerous discipleship really is. When the Notre Dame campus walks with Jesus tomorrow, we can ask ourselves a few questions. Do we take up the Cross, even in a world that so often says to put up our guard, or our gun, or our missile? Do we put our Catholic education at the service of Christ's mission, even in a culture that counsels strategic self-interest? Do we turn the other cheek in daily life as a more courageous, more responsive, and more practical Unjust Termina approach than retaliation? Each question is really the same: do we ignore the uncomfortable teachings of Christ and see in him only what we want, or do we take the nonviolent Jesus serious­ Architecture Professor Devalues ly and shape our lives by his? We believe that the call to shape our lives as followers of Christ can bring joy, life and passion. And that is why we have restarted at Notre Dame an organization that is rich in Catholic Quality of Rome Program and tradition and was once a vital part of this campus. That organi­ zation is Pax Christi, and we are working to resurrect it at Notre Dame. We invite you to be part of this effort tomorrow, Violates Notre Dame Family before the campus Stations of the Cross.

Abortion, euthanasia and capital punishment demean the lives of countless individuals in our society. Gather with us in Eucharistic Adoration to pray for an end to the culture of death.

Jesus is licre w illi us in the Eucharist to give us answers— answers

that w ill lead us to truth, happiness and peace. In this culture o f

death, it is easy for people to become weary and indifferent to God

and His gift of life. People often fall short of their obligation to care

for and nurture the spiritual and physical lives o f themselves and otil­

ers. Eucharistic Adoration gives a person the opportunity to nurture

his own spiritual life, as well as the spiritual lives o f others

(through prayer for them.) Prayer also protects the physical

lives of those endangered by abortion, euthanasia and

other forms of violence. It is only through the grace which

comes- from prayer that others' hearts can be changed from seeking death to loving life. Christ gives us the strength to press

on in our battle for life. In order to be Christ-like in our service

to preserve life, we must be filled w ith His life through prayer. We ask you to join us in prayer for life at Eucharistic Adoration.

What is Eucharistic Adoration? God is present to us in many ways in our world, but He is especially present to us in the Eucharist. As Roman Catholics, we believe that Jesus Christ, who lived 2000 years ago, is truly present in the Eucharist. In Eucharistic Adoration, the Host is placed in a monstrance, in order for us to be able to come and pray. Jesus is always hidden in the tabernacle, but in adoration He is exposed so that we can come and kneel before Him, face to face, and speak with God. When Jesus is exposed like this, He can never be left alone. Thus, people sign up to be responsible to come and pray with Him for a certain amount o f time (usually l/ 2- 1 hour) every week.

"I make a holy hour each day in the presence Why should I go? o f Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. A ll my If Jesus were to come to the JAGG, wouldn't you come and stand in line for hours just sisters of the Missionaries of Charity make a daily to talk to Him for a minute? Even if you weren't Christian, wouldn't you be at least interested in this God so many people talk about? Well, Jesus is truly present here on holy hour as well, because we find that through campus—in the Eucharist. IN ADORATION YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO our d a ily holy hour our love fo r Jesus becomes AND SPEAK WITH GOD FACE TO FACE. You can confide in Him, plead with Him, question Him. And if you sit quietly enough, He w ill inspire you with answers. more intimate, our love for each other more understanding, and our love for the poor more What do I do when I am there? compassionate..." When you enter the chapel, you should genuflect as a sign of reverence to Jesus. It is — Mother Teresa common practice during Adoration to genuflect on two knees, instead of just one (like you do whenever you enter a chapel.) You can stand, sit, or kneel— whatever helps you pray. And then you pray. There are many ways to pray: you can do spiritual reading; you can pray a rosary; you can sit in silence; you can even just talk to Jesus— like you would to a friend. The most important thing is that you love I lim and allow Him to love and strengthen you.

What does the Church think? "Lvposilion of the Blessed Sacrament, whether in a pyx or a monstrance, is a recognition of the wondrous Presence o) Christ in the sacrament and stimulates us to unite ourselves to Him in a spiritual communion. It is, accordingly, eminently in harmony with the worship which we owe Him in spirit and truth..." —I’osl-Conciliar (Vatican II) Document, S.C.D.W.
