Padre’s Corner Most Holy Trinity June 16, 2019 In part two of my Iceland reflections on life and faith, the journey shifted to the more rural part of the country called Vik. Farming is a must for family survival, with stores hours away. This was a typical way of existence for most ancient human communities, before the advent of capital cities such as Reykjavik for purposes of economic and social coherence. (Reykjavik was famous on October 11-2, 1986 for the midway meeting point for peaceful negotiations between President Ronald Reagan and Soviet Union General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev.) Undeniably the beauty of Iceland was further explored at the Skogafoss Waterfall, as well as the beach called Reynistjara with its black volcanic sand. The Skogar Folk Museum, near Vik, was particularly revelatory. There was a technology department, featuring old telephones and Morse code machines plus a 1927 Ford car. An 1855-built fishing boat evoked similarities with what Jesus and His disciples moved about with. An outdoors trail on the museum grounds allowed one to enter late 1800’s cottages and small farms, built to withstand the harsh winter elements of snow and ice. There were rooms for sleeping, cooking, guest provisions, tool storage, and even for lambs to provide warm clothing with their sheared hair. Another beautiful part of the outdoor museum grounds was the Skogar Church, evoking a simpler time of living where faith and existence were intricately linked. (At the Reynistjara beach, there was a once used Lutheran Church again producing distant memories of Jesus teaching His followers along seacoast settings. Sadly, the holy house is now quaint tribute to a past celebrated no more.) The museum church was described in these words: “The church was consecrated in 1998. The exterior is new, but the interior is largely original, from the church of Kalfholt, built in 1879. Windows from the church of Grot, 1898. Bells date from 1600 and 1742. All the church furnishings are old, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. Altar piece from Asoltsskali Church (1768). One chandelier was first in Steiner Church and later in Eyvindarholar Church, the other (16th century) was from the beginning in Eyvindarholar Church.” I spent some serene moments in this once sacred setting. As a priest and pastor, I am deeply concerned about how the overall dynamics of declining religious observance will impact all faith groups including Catholicism. Will what I saw in Iceland and elsewhere, where quaint church building sit largely unused in a lonely state, be one day the future fate of the United States? The current trends suggest the yes affirmative. A few years ago I visited a Episcopal Church in Northern Westchester County, pastored by a former Catholic priest. His attendance numbers were abysmal, yet typical of nearby parishes as well in his denomination. People may still be spiritual, but connecting to church worship is not in the realm of importance generally speaking. Reflecting on this growing indifference, a friend of mine texted me while in Iceland: “It will take some catastrophe like 9/11 to drive people back to church. Jesus rising from the dead isn’t enough for some. History is the road map. How many great nations and societies went the path of turning away from God, thinking it fully, only to meet their own destruction? No one gets to the Father except through Me.” I know we are called to be optimistic, because ultimately God is in charge. But, we must also be students of history. One must still remain resolutely confident, in the midst of the world’s foibles and spiritual indifference. We must look to the past, at times when the faith was deeply immersed in the lives of its people despite similar struggles to today of evil laws like abortion and economic injustice. The “French Sailors Prayer” written centuries ago in the early days of maritime history, call out: “Lord, be with me, my boat is small and the ocean is so great.” Those fears in a stormy world are akin to what the first followers of Jesus faced thousands of years ago, the people of Iceland faced in harsh winter conditions of the late 1800’s anchored by their Lutheran faith with the Catholic vestiges of images dedicated to the Madonna and Child plus the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and what we all face today in times crumbling to political correctness and moral teaching indifference.

The Catholic elites, both the governing class of Christian Democrats and the clergy, paid attention and esteem to football because, on the one hand, they considered this associative form of sociability an efficient instrument of pastoral mediation and, on the other hand, as a means of implementing political projects.

  • One of the Greatest Spiritual Writers of Our Time Was Carlo Carretto. He Was 78 Years Old When He Died in 1988 - on the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi, 4Th October
    One of the greatest spiritual writers of our time was Carlo Carretto. He was 78 years old when he died in 1988 - on the feast of Saint Francis of Assisi, 4th October. As a young man in Turin, he was a very militant member of "Azione Cattolica". His zeal even came to the attention of the Pope who invited him to work in Rome! In 1954 this great activist stunned everybody by burning his diary and his address book, before setting off for the Sahara Desert where he joined the Little Brothers of Charles de Foucauld. For ten years he lived the desert life of silence, solitude and prayer, before returning to Italy and settling in Umbria where thousands of people sought his counsel and direction. His books on prayer and contemplation, which have helped so many people - perhaps his most famous being "Letters from The Desert"- continue to be published and read today. In 1984 he wrote his "Spiritual Testament", which ends with an extraordinary "love letter" addressed to the institutional Church. In this letter he says: "How much I criticize you, my Church, but yet how much I love you! You have made me suffer more than anyone. And yet I owe you more than I owe any other person. I should like to see you destroyed. But I need your presence. You have caused me so much scandal. And yet you alone have taught me to understand the true meaning of holiness. Never in the world have I seen anything more obscurantist, falser, more hypocritical, more compromised.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 T \* £ $ > £ S F O i ^ o ; 2 o 7 Abstract The powerful hold of the Italian Christian Demo­ cratic Party on post-war government entitles it to recogni­ tion as, in many ways, the most successful party in Western Europe. At the same time, the party is unique in having mass support whilst being identified with the political 'centre'. This study focuses on the relationship between these two aspects of Italian politics. The thesis starts by examining the importance of spatial terminology in analyses of Italian politics and proposes that 'the centre' has two distinct, if not unrelat­ ed, meanings. Drawing on this idea the thesis seeks to show that the evolution of the Italian party system can be under­ stood through an analysis of two strategies which have dominated the Christian Democratic Party: the centre politi­ cal strategy and the centre party strategy, each rooted in a different understanding of the centre.
