9/11Memories of Attacks Still Linger for Fire Department Chaplain WWW.THEFLORIDACATHOLIC.ORG | Sept. 13-26, 2019 | Volume 80, Number 21 Memories of attacks still linger for fire department chaplain ALLYSON ESCOBAR Catholic News Service9/11 BROOKLYN, N.Y. | Msgr. John Delendick, a longtime New York Fire Department chaplain who is currently pastor of St. Jude Church in Brooklyn, remembers Sept. 11, 2001, vividly. At the time of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, Msgr. Delendick had just finished cel- ebrating Mass at St. Michael’s Church in Brooklyn where he was pastor. He jumped in his car and drove as close as he could get and then walked to the scene. When he got to the twin towers, he ran into other fire department colleagues, including first deputy commissioner William Feehan, who was later killed in the collapse. He also gave absolution to a police officer who ran to him amid a dark cloud of debris and smoke, asking the priest to hear his confession. He also recalls learning that his colleague and fellow fire chaplain, Franciscan Father Mychal Judge, was among the first known victims of the South Tower’s collapse. “That day, I don’t even know the order of what all happened ... Someone just handed me (Father Judge’s) helmet and told me he was killed,” he told The Tablet, newspaper of the Diocese of Brooklyn. The hardest thing of that day, he said, was people asking him if he had seen their friends, fathers, brothers and sons -- firefighters and first responders at the scene -- and not knowing how to respond. It wasn’t until after returning from ground zero that the priest and many families would realize that their friends and loved ones had died. Msgr. Delendick didn’t get back to his parish until 2 a.m. Sept. 12. As fire department chaplain, in between celebrating memorial Masses for the fallen, Msgr. Delendick would visit “the pile” at ground zero in the months that followed, accompanying fami- lies in their search for loved ones. That first year after 9/11, he doesn’t remember how many funerals and memorial Masses he said. “It’s just, you get so many of these funerals, and it just gets to you after a while. … I love the job, but I also hate it,” he said. Every year since the at- tacks, the New York Fire Department remembers and honors the heroes, especially those who have died years later from illnesses attributed to 9/11. This Sept. 6 the department added the names of 22 firefighters and recovery workers to the New York Fire Department World Trade Cen- ter Memorial Wall inside its Brooklyn headquarters. One victim of a 9/11 illness honored on the memorial wall was Lt. Timothy O’Neill, a Catholic who died in April after battling pan- creatic cancer for two years. O’Neill worked for several months at ground zero during the cleanup efforts. “My husband risked his life, and he paid the ultimate sacrifice 18 years later,” said his widow, Paula O’Neill. “It was a complete shock because he never had any symptoms, but then one day he went for a CT scan. … He always thought he would get sick after breathing in everything, sometimes without a mask. He just didn’t really talk about it, and we never expected the severity of the cancer.” With the help of the federally funded September 11th Victims Compensation Fund, O’Neill was able to be re- ceive treatment for his cancer from his Florida home. “I still have firemen to this day calling, crying to me,” Paula said. At the Brooklyn ceremony, Father Joseph Hoffman, pastor of St. Barbara in Brooklyn, who also is a New York Fire Department chaplain, read a Bible passage which said: “The Lord God will wipe away the tears from all faces.” The priest said that working with the fire department is “like serving another par- ish” and he is honored to work with these men and women. n Clockwise from top, Franciscan Father Brian Jordan, standing with laborers and emergency workers Oct. 5, 2001, blesses a 17-foot-tall cross formed by steel beams that was recovered from the rubble of the World Trade Center.

We can ship sup- plies up to the Carolinas and/or to the Baha- mas. Depending on the weather, we may also allocate staff.” After Hurricane Michael, Catholic Chari- ties sent Ken White, director of Agape Mis- sion Markets in Polk County, to assist the state emergency management specialist for the Florida Catholic Conference in determin- ing logistical distribution of supplies. Tester is prepared do so again, if necessary. Additionally, seven locations throughout the diocese are being prepared to be collec- tion sites for donations. “We are working on the logistics with each parish to help them with the collection pa- rameters they can manage best and then we’ll be sharing those lists on our website,” Tester said.

El crecimiento en equidad exige algo más que el crecimiento económico, aunque lo supone, requiere decisiones, programas, mecanismos y procesos específicamente orientados a una mejor distribución del ingreso, a una creación de fuentes de trabajo, a una promoción integral de los pobres que supere el mero asistencialismo. Estoy lejos de proponer un populi - smo irresponsable, pero la economía ya no puede recurrir a remedios que son un nuevo veneno, como cuando se pretende aumentar la rentabilidad reduciendo el mercado laboral y creando así nuevos excluidos. We can no longer trust in the unseen forces and the invisible hand of the market. Growth in justice requires more than economic growth, while presupposing such growth: it requires decisions, programmes, mechanisms and processes specifically geared to a better distribution of income, the creation of sources of employment and an integral promotion of the poor which goes beyond a simple welfare mentality. I am far from proposing an irresponsible populism, but the economy can no longer turn to remedies that are a new poison, such as attempting to increase profits by reducing the work force and thereby adding to the ranks of the excluded.

That first expression of generosity begot another, and another, leading to the creation of the Alive in Hope Foundation. Eleven years later, $23 million has been distrib- uted in support of the Catholic community in Brooklyn and Queens. One act of love calls forth another, creating ripples of hope for generations to come. Giving Today, Impacting Tomorrow 1 DearDear Dear Friends in Christ, “Do not be afraid of Christ. He takes nothing away, and He gives you everything. When we give ourselves to Him, we receive a hundredfold in return.” Benedict XVI Rooted in deep faith, summoned by hope, and impelled by charity, we join together and sustain the commandment of love. It was clearly love for our Church and its future that led a group of visionaries and caring individuals to form the Alive in Hope Foundation eleven years ago. They recognized that creating a foundation that would gather gifts and grow them over the years would provide for the ministerial needs of our Church. In order to have a sense of the divine and the eternal in your life, you must be a hope-giver to others—not only by how you treat others in your interpersonal transactions but in the way you give your tangible gifts away.
