Dernancourt Catholic Parish Dernancourt Catholic Parish Church of Saint Pius X In the Pastoral care of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate 1 Avoca Street, Dernancourt PO Box 85, Dernancourt SA 5075 Telephone 8261 2428 Email [email protected] Web www.oblates.com.au Parish Priest: Fr Mathew Raj OMI 4th Sunday of Easter Year B Sunday 25th April 2021 Weekly Reflection The fourth Sunday of Easter is also called Good Shepherd Sunday. In each of the three lectionary cycles, our Gospel is taken from the 10th chapter of the Gospel of John. In Cycle B, we hear the middle verses of this chapter. Unless we consider this chapter in the greater context of John’s Gospel, we will miss the radical nature of the statement Jesus makes when he declares himself to be the Good Shepherd. This chapter of John’s Gospel follows Jesus’ healing of the man born blind and the rejection of this miracle by the Jewish leaders who question Jesus’ authority to heal. Jesus responds to this challenge by calling himself the Good Shepherd. He is criticizing the leadership of the Pharisees and the other Jewish leaders. The Pharisees and other Jewish leaders are so angry that they attempt to stone and arrest Jesus (see John 10:31, 39). This controversy with the religious leaders continues until Jesus’ death. In the portion of the chapter that we hear proclaimed today, Jesus describes his relationship with his followers as similar to the relationship between a good shepherd and his sheep. As a good shepherd will risk and lay down his life in order to protect his sheep, Jesus willingly sacrifices himself for the sake of his sheep. Jesus contrasts the actions of the good shepherd with the actions of the hired shepherd who abandons the sheep in the face of danger. In the verses following Jesus' teaching, we learn that the Pharisees and the other religious leaders understand that Jesus is referring to them when he describes the hired shepherds. The concern of a good shepherd for his sheep is part of the shepherd’s job. Jesus says, however, that the actions of the good shepherd are based upon the relationship that develops between the shepherd and the sheep. This is at the heart of the difference between the good shepherd and the hired shepherd. The good shepherd knows the sheep and therefore acts out of love. For the Good Shepherd, this is never simply part of a job; this love-in-action is integral to his identity. As with so much of John’s Gospel, one hears in this passage John’s particular focus on Christology. As the sheep are known by the Good Shepherd, the Father knows Jesus and Jesus knows the Father. There is an essential unity between the Father and the Son. The freedom with which Jesus acts when he lays down his life is rooted in the unity that he shares with his Father. In this context, Jesus also refers to others with whom he shares a relationship. By this reference, John probably understands the eventual inclusion of the Gentiles in the Christian community. Our modern ears hear this as a reference to Christian unity. The work of ecumenism is to restore unity among all Christians so that we form one flock under one shepherd, as God desires.

  • Royal Commission Into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse: Case Study 50
    Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse: Case Study 50 7 February 2017 The second day of the Royal Commission’s Catholic “wrap up” hearing was held today in Sydney. The Commission today heard from Father Thomas Doyle OP, a US Priest with significant experience in the Church’s handling of child sexual abuse, Dr Michelle Mulvihill, psychologist and former Sister of Mercy, Professor Neil James Ormerod, Professor of Theology at ACU and Father Francis Maloney SDB, Senior Professorial Fellow at College of Divinity, Victoria. Testimony of Father Thomas Doyle OP Background Father Doyle spoke about his studies and his work as a staff canon lawyer within the Papal Nuncio’s office in Washington DC, including his role in assisting the selection of Bishops. Father Doyle went into some detail about his first encounter with child sexual abuse and its cover up. He spoke of local police contacting the office in 1982 to say that a retired Bishop had been caught with a couple of teenage boys, but they would cover it up. He went on to reoffend. He also said that they were contacted by another man who said that a Priest rumoured to be a nominee for Bishop had abused his wife’s nephew, and so the nomination was withdrawn. He explained that the issue came to a head in the mid 1980s, when the Diocese of Lafayette, Louisiana informed them that they had entered into confidential settlements with a number of families, and that another was planning to sue the Diocese. Father Doyle wrote a report for the Pope, and a Bishop was appointed to investigate the matter, but Father Doyle said the Bishop was only interested in avoiding the scandal.

The title comes from The Chronicles of early Melbourne by ‘Garryowen’ [Edmund Finn], published in 1888, and refers to the area north of the Reilly Street drain. These essays relate to that area. North Fitzroy has not had the same attention from historians as the southern part of the suburb, though less than twenty years separate the two areas, and it is older than most other suburbs of Melbourne. It is hoped that this publication will encourage research on other topics relating to North Fitzroy.

    A speech delivered by Mr Gary Lockwood – (President of the Australian Society for the Study of Labour History Adelaide Branch) at a meeting of the Florey Sub Branch of the ALP on Monday 21 st February 2011. Ladies and Gentleman fellow members of the ALP ...Comrades Thank you your introduction and I must say I am very proud to be the President of the Australian Society for the Study of Labour History (Adelaide Branch) and I would have greatly appreciated the opportunity to tell you more about a very fine Labour Organisation/History Organisation – how important it is, and what it does. But contemporary political times, has led me to take on another subject. In November 2010 I attended the Annual General Meeting at Sydney University of what is quite an academically orientated organisation – it is the peak history recording body of its type in Australia – highly held on an International base and historians long to have their works published in ‘Labour History’ – a publication that is produced twice yearly and this year on the organisation 50 th Anniversary...issue number 100 will be released. But it is about issue number 99 that I want to talk to you about ...because I have chosen an article in this issue to highlight the subject matter that I hope will be of interest to you all. I was at the Annual General Meeting of Labour History at Sydney University and just before the meeting commenced this ‘freshly off the press’ edition of Labour History arrived – someone handed me a copy and said ‘Oh Gary – you might just as well have your SA copy – it will save postage’ – I took it and sat down.

The Mass will celebrate a significant milestone in the life of Adelaide's Catholic community - the 50th anniversary of Archbishop Faulkner's ordination as a priest in Rome on January 1, 1950.

  • Michael Costigan*
    VATICAN II AS I EXPERIENCED IT Michael Costigan* A memorable Roman autumn Autumn is an enchanting time in Rome. By October the relentless heat of July and August, from which many of the Romans themselves flee, is only an uncomfortable memory. The days are shorter, often blessed by cloudless skies, with mild sunshine enhancing the golden glow of some of the ancient and modern buildings, especially in the late afternoon. The Romans, including the Pope and his court, have returned, the number of tourists has declined, the schools and universities are open for business and hot roasted chestnuts are on sale at street corners – or used to be in my day. After living through nine Roman autumns as a seminarian and student- priest between 1952 and 1961, I welcomed the chance in 1963 to experience one more of those magical seasons, probably my last and certainly the most memorable of all. I was there that year for the second of the four autumnal sessions of the Second Vatican Council, as a priest-reporter commissioned to cover the event for the Melbourne Catholic Advocate, of which I was the Associate Editor, as well as for three other Australian Catholic weekly newspapers. With the Australian Catholic Historical Society marking the 50th anniversary this year of the opening of Vatican II by making that event the theme of several of the monthly papers scheduled for 2012, the Society’s President suggested I help to set the scene by painting a picture of what it was actually like to be at the Council. My writings and diary My memory of the 77 days I spent in Rome during that autumn is aided by the voluminous reports I mailed back to Australia and by a pamphlet subsequently published by the Australian Catholic Truth Society with the title Vatican Council Survey, in which I summarised those reports.1 In addition, I kept a rough diary in an exercise book in which, usually before retiring late at night, I noted my daily activities in and around the Council.

    RHesiS: Newsletter of the Religious History Society 2010 RHesiS Newsletter of the Religious History Society No. 12 March 2010 RHesiS, for those without a copy of Liddell and Scott to hand, is the classical Greek word for speech or declamation. The Religious History Society exists for the following objects: to promote the study of all fields of religious history to encourage research in Australian religious history to improve means by which the long-term supporters and individual subscribers of the Journal of Religious History can enjoy a more direct involvement in the work of the Journal. Religious History Society – President’s Report 2009 This has been an important year for the Religious History Society. In December 2008, the Society experimented with a new format for its regular meetings. Since our first meeting in Sydney in 1998, the Religious History Society has held six conferences in association with the Australian Historical Association on themes which have ranged from ‗Millennium‘ (1998) to ‗Religion and Globalization‘ (2008). These meetings have drawn the widely scattered members of the Society together and also attracted strong interest from the mainstream participants in the AHA‘s biennial conference. From 11–13 December 2008, the Society held its first workshop in association with the University of Newcastle‘s Research Group for Religion and Intellectual Traditions (RECER) on the theme: ‗Church and State‘. This was held at the Newcastle City Hall and featured keynote addresses by Frank Lambert of Purdue University and Stewart Jay Brown of the University of Edinburgh. The first day was devoted to issues of church and state in the old world with the second day devoted to the colonial and post-colonial approaches particularly in Australia.
