VATICAN CITY (CNS)—Pope Benedict XVI appealed for an end to ethnic violence in Kyrgyzstan and urged the interna- tional community to provide humanitarian aid to the civilian population in the Central Asian country. The pope’s appeal came after several days of clashes between ethnic Uzbeks and Kyrgyz Pope Benedict XVI left hundreds dead and hundreds of thousands displaced. Addressing pilgrims at the Vatican on June 20, the pope pleaded for an end to the conflict and the re-establishment of peace and security in the country. “I invite all the ethnic communities of the country to renounce any provocation or violence, and I ask the international community to work so that humanitarian aid can quickly reach the stricken populations,” the pope said. “To the relatives of the victims and to all those suffering in this tragedy, I express my Troy Kunkel, center, puts his arms around James Hood, left, and Liam Mitchel on June 17 during Bishop Bruté Days at the Future Farmers of America heartfelt closeness and assure you of my Leadership Center in southern Johnson County.

Organizations such as the Knights of Columbus and the Serra Club of Indian- apolis provided meals at it. The evidence that Bishop Bruté Days is bearing fruit is also seen in its continued growth from year to year. Fifty-nine junior high and high school- aged boys attended this year. They came from 22 parishes and seven in the archdiocese. Parishes in the Cincinnati Archdiocese and Lafayette were also represented. Some of this growth came about Father Thomas Kovatch, right, pastor of St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross Parish in Bright, chats on through word of mouth.

Bishop Bruté Days. Nine participated this year. Sean Gallagher Photos by One of the newcomers was Joe Bandenburg. “A bunch of people told me that it was really awesome,” said Joe, who will be a high school freshman in the fall. “I just thought, ‘OK, well I’ll go and see if I want to become a priest.’ It’s really fun.” The growth is also due in part to priests like Father Thomas Kovatch, pastor of St. Teresa, who openly encourage young men in parishes to consider the priesthood. “I always tell them that if you’re a young guy, you have to think about if God might be calling you,” said Father Kovatch, who also attended Bishop Bruté Days this year. “It doesn’t mean that you’re going to go to the seminary. But you have to be open to it. So these guys are taking that step. They’re open to it.” The growth of Bishop Bruté Days is also sustained by the fact that young men like Troy Kunkel keep taking part year after year. “I love coming back and seeing all of the seminarians and all of my buddies,” said Troy, a member of St. Mary Parish in Greensburg, who will be a high school junior in the fall. “It’s just a great time. I like to hang out with Father Bob [Robeson] and all of the priests. They’re all great guys.” Troy said that he is actively thinking about becoming a seminarian. “In order to become a seminarian, you have to have peers that share your same views so they can teach you more about your faith and you can teach them more about your faith,” he Above, Msgr.

That’s why I’m here—to pray about it.” At 23, Bishop Bruté Days counselor Matt Tucci is 11 years older than Tommy.
