Film-makers Sir Peter Jackson and wife Fran Walsh have refurbished a
former Catholic chapel in Wellington, which was closed in 2002 due to
earthquake concerns. The Our Lady Star of the Sea Convent Chapel,

Church strengthening hinges on funding (photo)

Strengthening St Mary of the Angels church in central Wellington is
going to cost about $9.35 million. The French Gothic-style church in
Boulcott St, built in the 1920s, was closed after the 6.5 magnitude
quake on July 21 last year.

historic churches will simply disappear

JOHN L ALLEN'S COLUMN IN THE BOSTON GLOBE
Pope Francis vs. critics on sex abuse: Both sides have a point
http://goo.gl/Ncbkfr
In an extended conversation with the Italian paper Corriere della
Sera, the Pope Francis not only vigorously defended the Catholic
church's record on its child sexual abuse scandals, but also
complained that "the church is the only one attacked." While the pope
touched on many other points in the interview, from divorced and
remarried Catholics and birth control to some of the urban myths that
have grown up around him, it was his comments on the abuse scandals
that seemed most destined to spark reaction. It wasn't long in
coming...

Episode 77 -- Il Papa was on Rolling Stone (February 16, 2014)
Pope Francis continues to be a media darling, with Rolling Stone
magazine the latest publication to run a glowing piece on the Pontiff
as he approaches the one-year anniversary of his election. But, as
this article from The Week explains, there were quite a few errors and
exaggerations in the article. Pope Francis has also been in the news
with his appointment of his first group of new cardinals, and he's
also talked of the Internet -- our medium of communicating with the
world -- is a "gift from God". We find it hard to disagree with him.
James, Shannon, Don and Gavin also talk about the death of a New
Zealand bishop and a survey of Catholics in Germany and Switzerland.
Enjoy the show.

Cardinals try to manage expectations on divorce
http://goo.gl/e1VEOy
Rome - Pope Francis' maverick approach has aroused expectations of
sweeping change in Catholicism, and nowhere is that ferment more
palpable right now than on the question of whether believers who
divorce and remarry without obtaining a church annulment should be
allowed to receive communion and the other Catholic sacraments.

The Memorial Park project in Buckle St is good news for a dilapidated

empty, boarded up and full of history. The building will get a new

a four-day farewell for a man thought of as the "wise shepherd" of
