COVID -19 Deaths, MSC US.

We offer our sympathies and consolation to the US Province on their three deaths this week. And sympathy to the Spanish, French and Belgian Provinces for their losses.

Fr Jim Miller writes: This past week we lost three of our MSC community here at Sacred Heart Villa to the Covid-19 virus: Brother George Farkas died on May 29, followed by Brother Joseph Tesar who died on June 2 and finally Father Jack Paul who died in the last hour of June 2. Although this is a great loss for our community and USA MSC Province, we are comforted that they now rest in the arms of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, whom they served so diligently in their lives.

Their obituaries reveal an extraordinary variety of ministries over almost 7 decades.

BROTHER JOSEPH K. TESAR, MSC

Brother Joseph Keith Tesar, MSC died on Tuesday, June 2, 2020, at 8:40 PM, at Manor Care Nursing Home, Bethlehem, PA. He was 87 years old.

He was born in Denver, Colorado on December 29, 1932 and was adopted by Stephen and Mary (Connor) Tesar, both now deceased. He received his primary education at St. Mary’s in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and at St. Francis de Sales in Denver, CO, as well as St. Michael’s in Galena, Illinois. He also spent a few months each at schools in Clinton, Iowa, and in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.

In 1947, he entered the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart Mission Seminary in Geneva, Illinois, where he completed four years of secondary education and one year of college. In 1952, he entered the novitiate of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart in Youngstown, Ohio and made his first profession of vows on September 14, 1953. He continued studies at Sacred Heart Seminary, Shelby, Ohio and made his perpetual profession of vows on September 14, 1956. He continued studies in Shelby until 1959.

Br. Tesar’s first assignment was to the MSC community in Youngstown, Ohio, where he did kitchen and house work, in addition to maintenance, from 1960 until 1962. He then transferred to Sparta, Wisconsin, where he continued this work in 1962-63. In 1963, he returned to Youngstown, where he remained until 1970. During that time he was also involved in social work in the wider Youngstown community.

He was then appointed to the vocation department, first at Geneva, Illinois from 1970-73, and then in Watertown, New York, from 1973 until 1975. The following year he devoted to special studies, at the end of which he was appointed as a hospital chaplain as a member of the MSC community in Reading, Pennsylvania, where he lived until 1979. In that year, he moved back to Watertown, NY where he began and managed the Christian Care Center there for the disadvantaged. He continued in that role until 1989. During that time, he ministered as a prayer leader and counselor for people who came to the Christian Care Center needing help.

In 1989, his ministry took on a whole new dimension. He headed for the overseas missions in Papua New Guinea (PNG). In November 1989, he became a member of the community at St. Joseph Vocational Training School, Fissoa, on the island of New Ireland. He engaged in renewal ministry there with students and families. In January 1992, until 1995, Br. Joe assisted in a two-year formation program for diocesan seminarians at Tuias Spirituality Centre on New Ireland. In 1994, he became the director of this program. One year later, in 1995, he was appointed to coordinate the Charismatic renewal in the diocese of Kavieng. He gave workshops at various parishes and published a periodic newsletter about the Charismatic renewal. Later on, he once again directed candidates for the priesthood in the diocese of Kavieng during their year of discernment at the Tuias formation centre.

Later, after the year 2000, Br. Joe moved to the archdiocese of Rabaul. He directed pre-novices and novices there for a short time. He then went to Chanel College, a secondary school and seminary, where he was a spiritual director. He also provided spiritual direction to other people during his time there. In 2006, he returned to the USA and was assigned to the Aurora, Illinois community. He assisted in spiritual direction there, as well as in volunteer work at Hesed House, assisting the homeless and disadvantaged.

The Chevalier Family’s First Friday Justice and Peace Focus for June: Human Trafficking.

And an Australian Perspective.

We might not want to believe it, but human trafficking and slavery happens in Australia. Slavery is not an historical artefact, but a tragic reality for millions of people around the world, including in Australia.

Recently, the term “modern slavery” has been used to contrast contemporary forms of slavery from historical slavery such as that seen during the transatlantic slave trade.

In practice, modern slavery is an umbrella term that is often used to describe human trafficking, slavery and slavery-like practices such as servitude, forced labour and forced marriage.

But slavery is timeless. It has always been about the commodification of the body of a man, woman or child, the theft of liberty and sometimes life.

40.3 million people live in slavery globally

71% are female
(women and girls)

Over 1,900 people in Australia are victims of modern slavery

Only 1 in 5 victims are detected in Australia

ACRATH - A Catholic Response by Australian Religious

ACRATH stands for the Australian Catholic Religious Against Trafficking in Humans. We are endorsed by Catholic Religious Australia – the peak body for 155 religious orders in Australia, representing over 5,700 religious sisters, brothers and priests.

Mission Statement

ACRATH is committed to working together towards the elimination of human trafficking in Australia, the Asia Pacific region, and globally.

Our Inspiration

“I have come that you may have life and have it to the full.” John10.10

“Nobody has the right to treat you as her or his slave and you should not make anyone your slave” – Article 4 United Nations Declaration of Human Rights

A site against human trafficking

Slavery exists today. It’s right here among us and happening under our noses. That’s right – Australia is a destination for trafficked people who are used for a variety of purposes!

We want to give them a voice. Our site seeks to tell their stories so that society here can make a stand against such human rights abuses.

A Cheerful Post - remembering Pope John XXIII

Pope John XXIII's anniversary was June 3rd (1963). He saw only one session of Vatican II. His successor, Paul VI, presided over the next three sessions.

Pope John was well-known and admired as a very humane Church leader - a humorous encourager in pandemic times like this.

"He was a man who let himself be guided by the Lord," Pope Francis has said. But the Italian Pope John was also guided by his cheerful disposition, his simple, peasant background and tongue-in-cheek, wisecracking Italian culture.

Here's a look at some of this soon-to-be saint's funny quips:

1. Visiting a hospital he asked a boy what he wanted to be when he grew up.
The boy said either a policeman or a pope. "I would go in for the police if
I were you," the Holy Father said. "Anyone can become a pope, look at me!"

2. "It often happens that I wake up at night and begin to think about the
serious problems afflicting the world and I tell myself, I must talk to the
pope about it. Then the next day when I wake up I remember that I am the
pope."

3. In reply to a reporter who asked, "How many people work in the Vatican?",
he reportedly said: "About half of them."

4. When a cardinal complained that a rise in Vatican salaries meant a
particular usher earned as much as the cardinal, the pope remarked: "That
usher has 10 children; I hope the cardinal doesn't."

5. When he went to visit a friend at the nearby Hospital of the Holy Spirit
in the evening, the nun answering the door said: "Holy Father, I'm the
mother superior of the Holy Spirit." He replied: "Lucky you! What a job!
I'm just the 'servant of the servants of God.'"

6. Not long after he was elected pope, Blessed John was walking in the
streets of Rome. A woman passed him and said to her friend, "My God, he's so
fat!" Overhearing what she said, he turned around and replied, "Madame, I
trust you understand that the papal conclave is not exactly a beauty
contest."

7. He once wrote: "There are three ways to face ruin: women, gambling and
farming. My father chose the most boring one.."

8. When he was cardinal and patriarch of Venice, the future pope was talking
with a wealthy city resident and told him, "You and I have one thing in
common: money. You have a lot and I have nothing at all. The difference is I
don't care about it."

9. When a journalist asked the then-patriarch of Venice what he would be if
he could live his life all over again, the future pope said, "Journalist."
Then he said with a smile, "Now let us see if you have the courage to tell
me that, if you could do it all over again, you'd be the patriarch!"

10. A Vatican official told the pope it would be "absolutely impossible" to
open the Second Vatican Council by 1963. "Fine, we'll open it in 1962," he
answered. And he did.

RIP, Bishop Des Moore MSC.

Steve Dives writes:

This is to inform you that Bishop Desmond Moore MSC died very peacefully at 4.30pm this afternoon.

He has been struggling these last few days but was kept comfortable and lovingly cared for by the wonderful staff at St. Joseph’s Nursing Home, Kensington.

From the past - with Cardinal Ribat

He has had many visitors these past few days including his niece, many MSC and Chris McPhee this morning.

We will hear stories of his wonderful missionary work in Papua New Guinea as we share memories of him in the days ahead.

From the past, OLSH 2017

 Des was from Adelaide, born in 1926, ordained in 1957, Socius to Fr Butler in 1958, missionary in Eastern Papua, episcopal ordination in 1970. Next month he would have celebrated his Golden Jubilee of being a bishop.

May Des now rest in peace and share in the Glory of Christ’s Resurrection.

Superior General, Abzalon's letter last week, a covid-19 Province-wide update 

Just before the letter a piece of coronavirus news. Congratulations to Deacons Michael and Ace who were ordained in the Philippines last Saturday, Feast of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart. But the congregation numbers were limited, the ceremony was streamed on-line - and the first photos we have seen of a ceremony with anti-pandemic masks!

“Dear MSC confreres:

By this means we would like to report you about how the COVID19 situation continues within our MSC Society.

As we have all seen, the new epicenter of the impact of this situation has shifted from Europe to North and Latin America. People in countries like the United States and Brazil are facing very painful, challenging, unjust and very complex situations at all levels, not only talking about statistical figures, but about situations of health systems as well as political systems.  All countries in the Americas are facing this anguishing reality nowadays.  However, it is still very hard and challenging in Africa, Asia, Oceania and especially in Europe.

As of today, we have been informed about four MSC Confreres in Spain who recently have been tested positive for COVID19, three of them asymptomatic, and they have already recovered.

Brother George Farkas MSC sadly died from covid-19 on Friday, May 29th.  May he rest in peace,

Two elderly MSC Confreres are currently affected by COVID19 in the United States.

In Brazil there are two young MSC Confreres working in missionary areas, who have tested positive for COVID19 and we are confident that they will recover satisfactorily, there is another confrere in Brazil who is still waiting for a second test to confirm if he is still affected by the disease.

A sign of hope, our deacons: Ace S. Yu above and Michael Angelo Dacalos below.

Although in several countries, especially in Europe, we are taking steps towards the subsequent phases of the virus’ containment. It is our hope that everyone will continue to take the required measures; that we keep on taking care of the information that we share in order to avoid any false or wrong information. Likewise, we encourage you all to continue to accompany the People of God during these difficult times which affect the majority of the population throughout the world.

May the Feast of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, the following weekend, strengthen our communion in prayer and the possibility of generating the "antibodies" of compassion and mercy, so needed now to face these challenging times. May the sense of MSC Family continue to be alive among us. Blessings to all and take care yourselves.

Abzalon msc”

May 30^th, Feast of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart -  A Different Celebration in 2020

Greetings to the Chevalier Family and beyond on this patronal Feast.

Somebody remarked that with Pentecost Sunday, this weekend is the Feast of Our Lady of Pentecost – the words and image are there in the Acts of the Apostles, Mary with apostles and disciples in the upper room, anticipating, hoping for the coming of the Spirit.

This is covid-19 year and we extend our prayers to those infected with the virus. Our hearts to out to our US confreres who have the virus, Brother George Farkas, Brother Joe Tesar, Father John Paul. Below is a picture from the MSC house in Center Valley for praying for our confreres.

And a special OLSH prayer in times of Coronavirus.

Jules Chevalier invoked Mary with the title "Our Lady of the Sacred Heart" and the devotion to Mary with that title spread rapidly in all continents. A confraternity with that name was founded and reached 18 million members in 1891. The Congregation of Sisters founded by Father Chevalier are called "the Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart". The feast of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart is celebrated nowadays on the last Saturday of May.

The purpose of this devotion, according to Father Chevalier, is to honour Mary "in her relationship of ineffable love which exists between her and the Sacred Heart of Jesus."

This is a very rich mystery with many aspects, for Mary was the Mother of Christ and also his partner in the work of redemption. On Calvary Our Lord gave her as Mother to the disciple he loved, that is, to all of us, and Mary saw how the Heart of her Son was pierced and how blood and water flowed from it.

In John 7:37 Christ referred to his heart as the source of living water, that is, of the Spirit. The source was opened on Calvary, and when Our Lady prayed with the Apostles in the Cenacle, the Spirit was poured out over them and they started to preach (Our Lady of Pentecost): the Church came to life. As Mother of the Church Our Lady continues to obtain life for all of us. 

The National Shrine of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart

Artist, Richard Campbell

The National Shrine of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart is situated in the parish of Randwick in Sydney.  The website opens with a power point presentation of a wide range of images of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart. The site has prayers and articles on the devotion and the theology behind it.

National Reconciliation Week - an MSC acknowledgement.

This week has been National Reconciliation Week in Australia, with May 26^th being the 20^th anniversary of the 2000 Sorry Day with its walks in support of First Nation Australians, the memorable walk of thousands across Sydney Harbour Bridge.

This should be an important week for Missionaries of the Sacred Heart who have worked with aboriginal people in the Northern Territory since 1906, not only in Darwin, but in the Tiwi Islands, Santa Teresa and Alice Springs, Daly River, Wadeye/ Port Keats.

It is a challenge to look back at our history, strengths, weaknesses, challenges, including the Aboriginal ministry in western New South Wales, Wilcannia, Burke, and, more recently the Aboriginal Ministry in Sydney-based in Erskineville.

Patrick Dodson, ordained 45 years ago, 1975, the first aboriginal priest, not continuing in the priesthood but devoting himself to national reconciliation, often referred to as the ‘Father of Reconciliation’, is now a Senator in the Australian Federal government.

Quotes from Patrick Dodson:

Leadership is an elusive concept, hard to describe and impossible to prescribe. It is more evident in its absence, so that when leadership is needed, its lack is sorely felt.

We have much to contribute to the world; ways of knowing and being that are going to be essential to everyone's survival on our planet. As true citizens of Australia, properly acknowledged in our constitution, we can look forward not only to improving our own lot, but helping Australia contribute to the well-being of all the world's peoples.

For Aboriginal leaders, the social and moral obligation that comes with community leadership is life-long. Those who lead, who have authority, must care for and look after those who come behind.

These Australians hear the whispering in their heart and know it can only be silenced by coming to terms with the original owners of this beautiful and bounteous land. Many Australians of goodwill sense that a moment for national leadership has slipped past us and is gone.

In a climate of uncertainty and fear, without strong and visionary leadership, people panic.

A perspective from Andrew Hamilton SJ: “Seen through the lens of Sorry Business, Sorry Day and Reconciliation Week belong together and involve all Australians. It is an invitation to the whole Australian Community to do Sorry Business for the death and diminishment which Government policies brought to the Stolen Generations. The removal of children from their parents was bound up with death in its beginnings and its consequences. It developed from the conviction that Indigenous culture was dying out. It was designed to accelerate that process by assimilating the snatched children to their dominant culture. It brought death to the spirit of people separated from their families and culture and often untimely physical death to them and their descendants.”

Good God Choir - some background

Yesterday we posted Fr Norbert Becker MSC's hymn. Wikipedia revealed some MSC news of Fr Becker's centre.
