PAGE FOUR FROM THE PASTOR January 2020 Word of Life “They showed us unusual kindness.” (Acts 28:2) After two weeks adrift, 267 shipwrecked people finally reached the shores of a Mediterranean island. They were soaking wet, exhausted and terrified. In their near brush with death, they had experienced their powerlessness against the forces of nature. Among them was a prisoner heading toward Rome to undergo the judgment of the emperor. This isn’t one of today’s news stories. It happened to St. Paul the Apostle, who was being taken to Rome, where he would crown his mission as an evangelizer through the witness of martyrdom. He was sustained by his unshakable faith in divine providence. Despite being a prisoner himself, he managed to support and to encourage all his companions in their misfortune, until they ran aground on a beach in Malta. The people of the island welcomed them and lit a huge bonfire so that they could gather around it and warm themselves. The islanders then looked after them during the winter for about three months, after which they gave them all they needed to continue their journey safely.

  • The Catholic Educator
    The Catholic Educator Quarterly Journal of the Catholic Education Foundation 5th Annual Conference on The Role of The Priest in Today's Catholic School July 16-19, 2019 Seton Hall University See informational brochure on pp. 136-138 Volume 24 – Spring 2019 1 A Word From Our Editor An Analysis of a Debacle For the past several days, my phone and email have been hyperactive as I have been asked by dozens of people for my “take” on the firestorm surrounding a group of students from Covington Catholic High School following the March for Life in Washington, D.C., last Friday. I have been contacted because most know that I have spent my entire priestly ministry in Catholic education, actually beginning to teach high school while still a college seminarian; honesty compels me to say I have some degree of expertise and competence in this area. Not without reason, then, am I often introduced at Catholic school events as “Father Catholic Education.” So, what did/do we know? It is somewhat like “A Tale of Two Cities.” Scenario A: A group of high school boys disrespected a Native American man with a drum. Scenario B: Act One: The boys, fresh from the March for Life, go to the Lincoln Memorial and wait for their bus to take them home. While there, they are confronted by a hostile, vile group of black supremacists who hurl at them anti-Catholic, anti-white, anti-gay and anti-American slogans – even calling the two black boys from the school “niggers”. This activity goes on for nearly two hours.
