From The Pastors Desk...
Because of the Gospel that is proclaimed on the
Fourth Sunday of Easter it is ofen referred to as
Good Shepherd Sunday and is ofen an occasion for
menton to be made, in a partcular way, of the need
to pray for and foster vocatons to the ordained
ministries of Priest and Deacon.

This is always something worthy of prayer and
discernmentand maybe even the odd suggeston to
something you think might ft the bill of these
specifc vocatons in the life of the local Churchyet I
thought I might update you on where things stand in
our Diocese at this point in tme.

As you will read elsewhere, our Diocese is about to
ordain a deacon, Peter Street, as part of his journey
towards priesthood. This will be frst ordinaton of a
transitonal deacon in about seven years! It is a
joyous occasion to be sure, but there is some more
good news.

The Diocese had two men start their seminary
formaton this year in Sydney, another will begin his in
Rome later in the year, and yet another will begin his
formaton in Brisbane either mid-year or in 2015. It is
looking likely that at least one and maybe two will
begin their seminary formaton in 2015 as well.

This all looks very promising I think you would agree.

The bad news is that before all of these men fnish
their formaton and are ordained, the number of
priests stll actve in ministry in our Diocese will almost
halve through retrement. God forbid any of the
currently actve priests should take ill and have to
cease ministry early, although that is entrely in Gods
hands.

This dire situaton cannot be solved by simply invitng
more priests into our local Church from overseas
(although that too is being considered as part of a
short term soluton)if the Diocese is going to be
sustainable in terms of parish life going forward local
vocatons need to be fostered. The ability to place a
priest in every parish of the Diocese is already under
strain, and we cant simply ordain men and
immediately make them parish priests.

So on this Good Shepherd Sunday, as we hear the
Gospel proclaimed in our midst, perhaps we might
resolve to contnue to pray for and foster vocatons to
the ordained ministries of the Church, so that we can
contnue the mission of making the Good News of
Jesus known to the wider world.

Receiving Communion
So that we might receive Communion in a ft and
proper way, please be aware of the following:

When we process forward to receive Communion,
we have been asked by the Australian Bishops to
adopt a common and unifed gesture of reverence
before doing so. In Australia that gesture is a bow
of the head and shoulders (GIRM, 160). Any other
form of reverence, including a genufecton, is no
longer permited, and you are asked to refrain from
doing so.
When the minister of communion presents the
Host or Chalice to you, they say The Body of
Christ or The Blood of Christ. Please ensure that
you respond with Amen.
Communion by self-intncton (self-dipping) is
never permited, since we receive Communion and
never take Communion. Please refrain from this
inappropriate acton.
We regret that we do not have the physical
facilites to ofer communion while kneeling, and
respectully ask you to refrain from kneeling to
receive Communion while part of the procession,
since this is contrary to the nature of the
Communion procession itself. Your cooperaton in
honouring this request is very much appreciated,
and we thank you for your consideraton.

Yes to the Challenge of a Missionary
Spirituality
Today we are seeing in many pastoral workers,
including consecrated men and women, an inordinate
concern for their personal freedom and relaxaton,
which leads them to see their work as a mere
appendage to their life, as if it were not part of their
very identty. At the same tme, the spiritual life
comes to be identfed with a few religious exercises
which can ofer a certain comfort but which do not
encourage encounter with others, engagement with
the world or a passion for evangelizaton. As a result,
one can observe in many agents of evangelizaton,
even though they pray, a heightened individualism, a
crisis of identty and a cooling of fervour. These are
three evils which fuel one another.

At tmes our media culture and some intellectual
circles convey a marked sceptcism with regard to the
Churchs message, along with a certain cynicism. As a
consequence, many pastoral workers, although they
pray, develop a sort of inferiority complex which leads
them to relatvize or conceal their Christan identty
and convictons. This produces a vicious circle. They
end up being unhappy with who they are and what
they do; they do not identfy with their mission of
evangelizaton and this weakens their commitment.
They end up stfing the joy of mission with a kind of
obsession about being like everyone else and
possessing what everyone else possesses. Their work
of evangelizaton thus becomes forced, and they
devote litle energy and very limited tme to it.

Pastoral workers can thus fall into a relatvism which,
whatever their partcular style of spirituality or way of
thinking, proves even more dangerous than doctrinal
relatvism. It has to do with the deepest and inmost
decisions that shape their way of life. This practcal
relatvism consists in actng as if God did not exist,
making decisions as if the poor did not exist, setng
goals as if others did not exist, working as if people
who have not received the Gospel did not exist. It is
striking that even some who clearly have solid
doctrinal and spiritual convictons frequently fall into
a lifestyle which leads to an atachment to fnancial
security, or to a desire for power or human glory at all
cost, rather than giving their lives to others in mission.
Let us not allow ourselves to be robbed of missionary
enthusiasm!
