SHEEN ', • * * _ .— Most of ui who have the Faith are resigned to God's Will in the suffering and trials which come to us against our own will. A had cold, temporary unemployment—these we \offer op\ because we can do nothing about them. But do^we-over-go^rat M our way in search of a Cross? In addi- tion to patiently accepting what we cannot control, like rain the day of a wedding, do we ever actively look for someone else's burdens to carry? For this is precisely what the Word of God enjoins: \Bear ye one another's business.\ We consent reluctantly to being victimized, but do we ever will to be a victim—especially for others? What does being a victim mean? It means taking on suffer- ing which we never deserved in order that someone else who may have deserved it may go free. Our Lord was the Perfect Victim. He did not deserve steel in His Pure Flesh, nor thorns and thistles, the curse of the earth, fashioned into a crown of thorns. He bore our griefs and Himself carried our sorrows. We deserve steel in our hands because of our greed, rivets in our flesh because of our prodigal wanderings, thorns on our brows because of our evil thoughts and a lance in our sides because of our trivial loves. But He took them all on Himself as if He deserved them. He willed them; He courted them; He asked for the bitter dregs of a cup we were to drink. He was our Victim! Belief that in a democracy everyone is entitled to as much' education \as he may for any reason desire\ is filling schools with students who have neither the interest nor the capacity for advancement, Father Gannon said. \Private schools have admit- ted hopeless material because of tuition or the influence of parents. Public schools have been compelled by law to keep a lot of sullen hulks around, whose only definite desire was to be elsewhere,\ he said. \If we were to find an ade- quate teaching staff for our enormous student body, we should have to comb the entire earth. Real teachers are not bom every day.\ The pain of a leper crawling to Mass on knee stumps should hurt our own legs; the plight of two families living in one room'by shifts should make our hearts feel cramped, our eyes feel sleepless; the hunger of a child In Vietnam should make us get up from the table a little hungry that we may \bear his griefs.\ Those of us who are priests should feel millions of pagans pulling at our chasubles for. prayejs to know the light of Christ as we approach the altar each morning. This, my dear friends, is the basis of aid to the Holy Father and his Society for the Propagation of the Faith. We deliber- ately will to be victims for Christ's sake; we seek little crosses of self-denial, such as giving up an extra dress or fashion mag- azine or cocktail, in order to lay those few cents in the hands of the Vicar of Christ for the poor of the world. We deserve much more suffering for our sins than these people, and they deserve much less hunger and thirst Who will heed this Christ-appeal? The rich? The com- fortable? The benefactors of the tenth dormitory on a col- lege campus? Perhaps, but the \poor in spirit\ will, and that you are, otherwise you would not have read this plea. Remember what you give to the Holy Father goes to his Society for the Propagation of the Faith for all missions and all missionary societies In the world. God Love You for your victimhood!

Not Time to Talk Rome ^«- is w i New York— (NC) - A Protestant spokesman has ex- pressed optimism about develop- ment in Christian unity, but cautioned that Non-Catholics are not yet ready to discuss union with Rome. Dr. Claud D. Nelson noted that even those Protestants and Orthodox Christians who are ac- tive in unity movements \are not yet aware of what they must do to unify themselves.\ : Thus, he said, they \are cer- tainly not ready to discuss union with Rome.\ Dr. Nelson, a consultant on religious liberty to the National Conference of Christians and Jews and the National Council of Churches of Christ, made his comments in an article in the November 11 issue of America magazine, published by the Jesuits. i The article is a \dialogue\ betwen Dr. Nelson and Father Thomas F. Stransky, C.S.P., an American Paulist priest on the Rome staff of the Secretariat for promoting Christian Unity. 1 COURIER-JOURNAL C Friday, November 24,1961 ' £11 I III MINI Mil Ill in To Sponsor Card Party AQUINAS MOTHERS CLUB will sponsor a card party Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 8:15 p.m. at Doud Post, 8M Buffalo Rd.
