The precept of Christian charity, f~eding the hungry, clothing the naked, seeing the image and likeness of Christ in the stumped and gnarled dere- licts of humanity- dividing with our dying neigh- bors-doing good to them that hate you and speak all that is ~vil aga inst you- is not a mere theory, but the concrete practice of doers of the word. Charity in word and deed is the high est form o f Catholic action. By this shall all men know that you are Catholics. _ The Vicar of Christ, too, trudging the Way of the Cross has been cut off from the major re- sources of his support. Had mankind listened to his pleading on assuming the Chair of Peter three years ago, there would have been no war. Three sad years of heart-rending struggle tnark_ the be- ginning of his pontificate. Even today his hands of mercy reach out to suffering humanity. To sustain our beloved Father of Christendom and to express devoted loyalty, Catholics t h rou~h- out the world unite this coming month to offer him a spiritual bouquet to commemorate his Silver Epis- copal Jubilee: We will do the thing right and add to the spiritual a substantial gift representing per- sonal sacrifice. These are times when we must think of others. * * * A Native Priesthood While our hearts are touched with the suffer- ings of those across the seas, we cannot ~eglect the spiritual welfare of our own ~ar-fl~ng D1oces:, stretching across 35,000 square mtles here m Southern California. To provide for both the pres- ent generation and generations yet unborn, _we must build up now a native priesthood and give ample opportunity to our own youth to develop a vocation that in time will bring them to the altar of God. T.~o- t"""h,...,.is_ e_n-.d a Jun ior Sem inary was built and started last year in Old Town, San Diego, with eight promising seminarians enrolled. Others must follow to prepare themselves courageously for the work ahead. The great foreign missionary sem- inary of Maryknoll beg-a11 with six students. It now enrolls over 300. Your faith in action will be revealed in your support of St. Francis Junior Seminary. Your generosity places you on record as a generation willing to g1ve to the young a chance for the future. * * * Our Home Parish It has been falsely said that charity begins at home. This trite expression was never true. Selfish- ness begins at home and often stays there. But not- withstanding the many calls that come from far and near, our own parish must continue to func- tion and to stand ready at all times to give you spiritual aid. In this newly formed Diocese most of the parishes labor under heavy burdens. Besides the regular overhead .for maintenance, your pastor must meet interest and principal for the bank lo:tns. He must keep up the property, you demand it. Now because it would be impossible for your beloved pastor to follow up this intensive .cam- paign with a separate appeal for his parish, it appears to us but just and practical to include it in this four-point program, which is so arranged to do away with the necessity of multiple appeals. We have cons· tently refused to permit a number of extra ·collections in the D10cese, although the causes were worthy. We now unify and coordin- ate many scattered efforts into this one plea which includes four urgent needs. Who can say what the future has in store for us? Perhaps an all-wise Providence may demand untold sacrifices from us before the world learns its bitter lesson. In another year we may have nothing to give. Now a plain dutv is before us. Will we shirk it? •Praying the Divine Benefactor to enlighten, to guide and reward you, I remain, with blessing, Your devoted servant, * * * Our Holy Father 25 Years a Bishop. .. 1shop Buddy 1n Easter Servic .
