St Mary's Cathedral Special Christmas Edition Our Cathedral The Newsletter of St Mary’s Cathedral, Perth, Western Australia Issue 8 - December 2013 Print Post Approved PP609481/000029 Embrace the Spirit of Christmas at St Mary’s Cathedral A Christmas Message Most Rev Timothy Costelloe SDB Archbishop of Perth Dear Friends, In a recent and in some ways rather startling interview which Pope Francis gave to a magazine in Italy, and which has been translated into many languages since, the Holy Father offered a very beautiful and very challenging image for an understanding of the role of the Church in today’s world. I see the Church,” he said, “as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars! You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else. Heal the wounds, heal the wounds … And you have to start from the ground up”. The Pope also adds in this same interview that “the thing the Church most needs today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful. It (the Church) needs nearness, proximity… I have been personally very moved by these words and am trying to take them to heart as a programme for my own role as Archbishop of Perth. At the same time I would like to offer them as words of advice and encouragement to all of us. Particularly as we celebrate the great feast of Christmas I would like to suggest that the very best gift we can give to others, both family and friends, is the healing of wounds and the warming of hearts. We live in a beautiful world but it is a world, and a society, that is also deeply wounded. We carry some of those wounds in our own hearts and, even more tragically, we can be the cause of pain and suffering for others, even those we love the most. Sometimes it is in our own families that wounds most need healing and hearts most need warming.

St Catherine’s, Bedford Avenue, Subiaco Christmas Day - 8.30am Mass 12.00am Midnight Mass Preceded by Lessons and Carols St Francis Xavier, Windsor Street, Perth 10.30pm – 11.30pm. Christmas Day - 9.30am Mass 2 from the Archbishop Christmas is a time when we remember that God has come near to us in Jesus, precisely to heal our wounds and warm our hearts. In the new born baby lying in the manger we see what it means to say that God loves us and that love is expressed in closeness, as love always is. God wants to be so close to us, in fact, that he becomes one of us, sharing in everything that is ours as human beings, except sin of course, and in turn inviting us to share everything that is his. The early Christians, reflecting on this, used to say with great boldness that God became one of us so that we might become one with God. This is why, in the Gospel of Matthew, the new born child is given the name “Emmanuel”, a name which means “God is with us” (Matthew 1:23). As this little child, born in the stable of Bethlehem, grows up and begins his life’s work he will describe that work in this way: “to bring good news to the poor, to proclaim liberty to captives, to give sight to the blind, to set the downtrodden free, and to announce a year of favour from the Lord” (Luke 4:18-19). This is what it means, of course, to heal wounds and warm hearts. The four gospels are full of stories in which Jesus does precisely this. Sometimes he heals physical wounds, as when he restored the sight of the man born blind (John 9:1-40). Often he heals the deeper, spiritual wounds, as when he forgave Peter after Peter had denied him three times (John 21:15-17). In both cases, and in so many others, he warmed hearts that had grown cold and hard through fear, rejection, suffering or despair. Because we, as Christians, are followers of Jesus, we too are called to heal wounds and warm hearts just as he did. The giving of gifts at Christmas can be both a sign and a practical way of bringing warmth and healing into people’s lives. It all depends of course on whether the gifts we give really are an expression of what lies in our own hearts. If we want to be close to others, if we want to bring wholeness and joy to their lives, if we want to set them free from whatever is oppressing or troubling them, and we express this through our gift-giving, then we are the healers God is calling us to be. And of course, because it is what lies in our hearts rather than what lies under the wrapping paper that really matters, we will want to be and try to be “healers of wounds and warmers of hearts” not just on Christmas Day but every day. This is my wish and prayer for all of you at Christmas. May it be a time of deep happiness, of reconciliation and peace, and of joyful hope for the future. A happy and holy Christmas to you all.

Every Sunday, we see the Church Universal as it were. People of all ages and of all nationalities come to worship here. During lunch time on Sundays my assistant priests and I often share with the Archbishop, stories of the variety of people we have met as we stand at the front doors to greet them after the Masses. We welcome people from South American Countries such as Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela as well as people from the USA, Mexico and Canada. We see travellers from Africa and Europe – countries such as Italy, England, Ireland, Germany and France, as well as so many people from Asia - the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Korea, China, India and so on. This is the Church ‘Catholic’. Regardless of where we live, how we live, the language we speak, the colour of our skin… United by Faith, we are indeed ‘One Catholic Family’. Everyone is welcome at St Mary’s Cathedral. We welcome people of all religions, all faiths, to join us in peace and friendship. Christmas at St Mary’s Cathedral is perhaps one of my most favourite times of the year, as thousands come to honour the birth of Jesus. It is truly uplifting to welcome so many people from Perth, interstate and around the world, all of whom come to embrace the real ‘Spirit of Christmas’. It’s lovely to see the families who come to each of our Christmas Masses – Mums and Dads, Grandmothers and Grandfathers, Aunts and Uncles, Brothers and Sisters, friends and loved ones.

  • Plenary Wrap-Up – May, 2011 the Following Is a Record of Proceedings
    Plenary wrap-up – May, 2011 The following is a record of proceedings and discussions which took place at the Plenary Meeting of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference between May 6-12, 2011. The Mass of the Holy Spirit was concelebrated on Friday 6 May in the chapel of Mary MacKillop Place, North Sydney at 7am. The President of Conference, Archbishop Philip Wilson, was the principal celebrant and preached the homily. The President welcomed the Apostolic Nuncio, Archbishop Guiseppe Lazzarotto who was warmly greeted. As is customary for each Plenary, religious leaders from CRA (Catholic Religious Australia) were present as observers for all of the sessions. These leaders were Sr. Anne Derwin rsj (Sister of St Joseph); Fr Timothy Norton svd (Divine Word Missionary); and Sr Marie Duffy rsm (Sister of Mercy). In a particular moment, the Bishops remembered fondly but with deep sadness their brother Bishop Joseph Angelo Grech, who died suddenly late last year (28 December) of a blood disorder. His contribution to the life of the Australian Church was recognised, and the Bishops reflected on the difficulty of losing such a talented individual on many of their commissions. The following changes to Commissions were approved: Bishop Peter Elliott retire from the Bishops Commission for Pastoral Life due to commitments to the Personal Ordinariate; Bishop Julian Porteous be seconded to the Bishops Commission for Mission and Faith Formation; Bishop Christopher Prowse be seconded to the Bishops Commission for Pastoral Life; Bishop Christopher Prowse

  • Irish in Australia
    THE IRISH IN AUSTRALIA. BY THE SAME AUTHOR. AN AUSTRALIAN CHRISTMAS COLLECTIONt A Series of Colonial Stories, Sketches , and Literary Essays. 203 pages , handsomely bound in green and gold. Price Five Shillings. A VERYpleasant and entertaining book has reached us from Melbourne. The- author, Mr. J. F. Hogan, is a young Irish-Australian , who, if we are to judge- from the captivating style of the present work, has a brilliant future before him. Mr. Hogan is well known in the literary and Catholic circles of the Australian Colonies, and we sincerely trust that the volume before us will have the effect of making him known to the Irish people at home and in America . Under the title of " An Australian Christmas Collection ," Mr. Hogan has republished a series of fugitive writings which he had previously contributed to Australian periodicals, and which have won for the author a high place in the literary world of the. Southern hemisphere . Some of the papers deal with Irish and Catholic subjects. They are written in a racy and elegant style, and contain an amount of highly nteresting matter relative to our co-religionists and fellow -countrymen under the Southern Cross. A few papers deal with inter -Colonial politics , and we think that home readers will find these even more entertaining than those which deal more. immediately with the Irish element. We have quoted sufficiently from this charming book to show its merits. Our readers will soon bear of Mr. Hogan again , for he has in preparation a work on the "Irish in Australia," which, we are confident , will prove very interesting to the Irish people in every land.

  • The Founding and Establishment 1986-2014
    the founding and establishment of the university of notre dame australia 1986-2014 Peter Tannock November 2014 The Objects of The University of Notre Dame Australia are: a) the provision of university education within a context of Catholic faith and values; and b) the provision of an excellent standard of – i) teaching, scholarship and research; ii) training for the professions; and iii) pastoral care for its students. I have written this brief monograph as a personal account of some of the people and events associated with the founding and establishment of The University of Notre Dame Australia. It reflects my memory of, and opinions about, the main issues and challenges faced by the founders, and the milestones in the University’s progress, since it was first conceptualized in 1986. This monograph is a contribution to the University’s celebrations of 25 years since the passage of its founding Act through the Parliament of Western Australia in December, 1989. A subsequent complementary monograph, containing select records and photographs relevant to this story, will be published. I should like to acknowledge the great contribution of Leonie Peacock to the preparation of this publication. Peter Tannock Vice Chancellor Emeritus The University of Notre Dame Australia November 2014 1 The University of Notre Dame Australia Origins: 1986-1992 The idea of establishing a private Catholic University in Perth, Western Australia emerged in the second half of the 1980s. It arose from the realisation by the Archdiocese of Perth and the Catholic Education Commission of Western Australia that there were inadequate means of providing special training for the substantial numbers of lay people who would be needed for future service at all levels in the State’s extensive and growing Catholic school system.
