Nelson area artist Darryl Robertson has returned to New Zealand after
returning a piece of history to the Abbey of Monte Cassino. Seventy
years ago, when the New Zealanders were fighting in Cassino, a soldier
took a small 16th or 17th century statue from the abbey. The son of
the soldier asked Robertson to take the artifact back while he was in
Europe on another quest.

Mass Catholic mass in Palmerston North (full text)
http://www.stuff.co.nz/manawatu-standard/news/8999580/Mass-Catholic-mass-in-Palmerston-North
More than 2000 Catholics from Manawatu and Tararua area are expected
to congregate for a "Year of Faith" mass at Arena Manawatu in
Palmerston North tomorrow. Former Pope Benedict asked Catholics around
the world to mark 2013 as a year to celebrate and re-energise their
faith. Bishop Charles Drennan, who leads the Catholic Community in
Taranaki, Whanganui, Manawatu and Hawkes Bay, has invited people from
nine churches to assemble for hymns from 10am, with the Mass beginning
at 10.30am.

liability that could fall over in a significant earthquake, and will
cost millions of dollars to be brought up to an acceptably safe

Sunday night was nothing to write home about. The seats in economy
class were fairly uncomfortable, and the main course was a lukewarm
square of lasagna roughly the size of a Ritz cracker.
I'll say this for it, however: The in-flight entertainment was spectacular...

Sister Loyola Galvin, from the Home of Compassion in the Wellington
suburb of Island Bay, was named national NZ Gardener of the Year 2008
by NZ Gardener magazine, and interviewed twice on the programme in
2008. Filmmaker Jess Feast was inspired by those interviews to make a

Underway right now is the first comprehensive census of churches in
this country since early last century. The Mission Koru Report expects
to reveal a surprising growth in the number of churches and an
emerging diversity in both denominations and ethnicity. Associate
Professor Peter Lineham of Massey University is one of the researchers
behind the census and the author of articles on the history of the
Christian church in New Zealand. He discusses history, methodology and
changing paradigms with Spiritual Outlook producer Justin Gregory, who
asks him whether the census will reveal more about New Zealander than
just our church-going habits:

When 17- year- old Giuseppe Barnao left the volcanic island of
Stromboli in 1895, he was emigrating to a small, unfamiliar country
thousands of miles away – Nuova Zelanda. Giuseppe and his younger
brother Bartolo spent the rest of their lives in this country –
hardworking model Kiwis, founders of an iconic fishing industry and,
along with their families, respected by their local communities. The
colourful, sprawling story of how and why they planted their Italian
roots here is told by Vincent Moleta in his absorbing book Family
Business: An Italian Kiwi Story...

Father Tony Alex was not in the best place to ride out the big one. St
Gerard's Monastery is famous, beautiful – and earthquake-prone. Many
millions would be needed to bring it up to standard, as the building's
owners had warned only recently. But when the 6.5 magnitude earthquake
struck at 5.09pm on Sunday, St Gerard's ''didn't sway much at all'',
says Father Tony, the priest at
St Gerard's church.

I'm in Rio de Janeiro this week, watching Francis wow Brazil. The trip
has brought a little bit of everything: crowds so pumped up for the
pope they created security nightmares, protestors pushed back with
tear gas (they were mad at the government, not so much the pope),
Francis at his pastoral best at the Marian shrine of Aparecida, and a
powerful message of solidarity with the poor in a Rio slum. The mere
fact Francis is out of town, however, doesn't mean his problems in
Rome have taken a vacation...

A historic church building in Ngongotaha has been sold and will be
moved to Auckland, according to the previous owner. The Immaculate

put up for tender late last year.

Station XV: Episode 70 — Pastors, princes and Pope Francis (July 15 2013)

With the panel down on numbers and an early recording date, it's a
more concise episode of The 15th Station this month as James and Gavin
discuss some of the big stories of the month, including Pope Francis's
desire for bishops to be more pastor than prince, the idea of the
Church reclaiming the word "matrimony" as marriage is redefined in
various jurisdictions and we take a look at the first meeting of
arguably the two most important Christian leaders in the world — Pope
Francis and the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Francis in Brazil and a new scandal in Rome
http://ncronline.org/blogs/all-things-catholic/francis-risks-brazil-and-new-scandal-rome

Let's be clear: Francis' first overseas trip July 22-29 to Brazil for
World Youth Day almost certainly will be perceived as a runaway hit.
He'll likely draw large and enthusiastic crowds, his freewheeling and
warm style should play as well on the road as it does in Rome, and his
palpable concern for the poor should strike deep chords in a society
where social justice is an idée fixe. That said, every papal trip is a
journey into the unknown, and Francis faces some real risks on this
outing, a few immediate and short-term, others longer-term and harder
to evaluate amid the euphoria...

It focused on famous personalities linked to the state. One name I

many to be the first martyr of the Americas...

Catholic crisis pregnancy centre planned
A Catholic ''crisis pregnancy centre'' is set to open in Dunedin but a pro-choice group has concerns the centre will counsel vulnerable women against the ''evils of abortion''.

Reports draw more church abuse claims
The Dominion Post
Five people claiming they were abused in New Zealand Catholic schools and boarding houses have come forward after damning inquiries in Australia. The New Zealanders, all of whom now live in Australia, have alleged physical and sexual abuse while in Catholic institutions, mostly in and around the 1960s.

Catholic Communities of North Taranaki will gather at the TSB Stadium in New Plymouth this Sunday. Bishop Charles Drennan, Bishop of the Palmerston North Diocese, will celebrate Mass during which the Sacrament of Confirmation will be conferred on a group of young people from North Taranaki.

ALL THINGS CATHOLIC - John L. Allen Jr


Ferment in Nigeria; Syria; the Vatican bank; and sex scandals

Perhaps it's the curmudgeon in me, but I'm always drawn to news stories that seem to upend conventional wisdom, and I award bonus points if the story challenges both liberal and conservative biases at the same time. That quirk probably explains why I find recent developments in Nigeria's Ahiara diocese so fascinating...
