"No, when you have a party invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the

because repayment will be made to you when the virtuous rise again."

Dear friends,
For readers of 'Kiwicath News & Notes' in MSN Communities: you can read
the Australian bishops' statements on the plight of the Afghan asylum
seekers at:
http://www.cathtelecom.com/index.asp in its News Archive.
I'm story to say, this (Sunday) morning there's a technical problem with
two of the addresses of the NZ Catholic bishops' Website. Neither
http://www.catholic.org.nz nor http://catholic.org.nz were working. I
have written to the address administrators asking for an urgent fix. In
the meantime you can still reach the bishops' Web site at
http://www.catholic.org/newzealand
All God's blessings,
Mike Leon
