He said he believes that the willingness to accept the Israeli state, ex pressed earlier this year by Palestine Liberation Organization leader Yasser Arafat, signals a new opportunity for peace. Patriarch Sabbah rejected claims that the PLO is a Moslem extremist group. “ There are many Christians in the Palestine Liberation Organization,” he said.

Earlier actuarial studies pointed to two alarming facts that would have a serious impact on the ability of congregations to care for their retired members: 1) Religious women were living con siderably longer than the average American woman; and 2) Congregations have had a serious decline in the number of active members. The collection which was taken last year was truly an overwhelm ing success. Across our nation, Mi $25.4 million was collected. In the Diocese of Pittsburgh the total amount collected was PASS 863a $863,394.46, representing the largest single collection ever taken in the Diocese of Pittsburgh. Of this amount. $ 100.000 was kept locally for the Retirement Fund for Religious which was established in our diocese several years ago. I am pleased to report that $549,225.97 was returned to religious congregations with motherhouses within the Diocese of Pittsburgh. As we prepare for this year's appeal. I call to your attention that the Collection for Retired Religious will be taken at all Masses celebrated for the 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Tim e, Nov. 19. It should be noted that once again this year $100,000 will be retained for our local Retirement Fund for Religious. The remainder of this year's collection, less the actual administrative costs of the appeal, will be forwarded to the national office where it will be distributed according to a carefully determ in ed formula. The Collection for Retired Religious is scheduled on the weekend immediately prior to Thanksgiv ing. In the spirit of that great holiday, our support of this appeal will be a sure sign of our gratitude for the faithful religious who have served the Church so well for so many years. As they turn to us now for assistance, let us be certain not to disappoint them. The success of last year's appeal is a clear indication of the affection the Catholic people have for those who serve In religious life. It is most encouraging to know that through your generosity many Religious throughout our nation will be assisted and that substantial assistance is being provided for the Religious who have served so faithfully within our own diocese. With prayerful best wishes, I am
