“…here was an old friend,
moving with determined dignity to greet Mother Hardey, strong featured
under her turban, wearing black mitts, earrings, silk shawl and a large
crucifix.” (from Second Sowing: the life of Mary Aloysia Hardey by Margaret Williams.) Can we call this friend an early associate?

Dear members of the Sacred Heart family,Today I want to share with you
some decisions we have made for the Society of the Sacred Heart in the
United States. These decisions address the urgent financial needs of
the Province which were identified nearly two years ago through an
actuarial study and I believe they will ensure the ongoing vitality of
the Society’s mission and ministries in the United States for years to
come. In the past year, with the help of consultants, we have
studied ways of providing for our members’ health care services,
especially for those who are retired.

Pope John Paul II will be remembered by historians as one of the great
leaders in the history of the Church and the world. Through years of
political and religious turmoil that marked his papacy in many parts of
the world, he remained steadfast in his promotion of human dignity and
human rights. We can never forget his constant reminders of God’s love
for the weak and poor, his opposition to violence, including the
violence of war in Iraq and the violence inflicted on those convicted
of capital crimes, his love of young people and theirs of him, and his
tireless efforts on behalf of peace.

Christian faith, in its beginnings, as we have just seen in the Easter
Scriptures, was not ever meant to be a private affair. Jesus, just
risen, appeared to Mary Magdalen in the garden and after calling her by
name said, “Do not cling to me, but go and tell my brothers [and
sisters] . . . !” Similarly, after the Transfiguration we see Jesus
correcting Peter whose instinct was to stay there in that holy place
and erect three tents. Jesus message again was “Go!” as he led the
three disciples back down the mountain to reconnect with the real life
of the community. God’s Word is to be made known, proclaimed, spread.
It is not to be guarded as a private treasure by a small “in-group.”
