Title:Description:Text transcribed from caption: SUGGESTED FOR USE WITH RNS WEEK IN RELIGION FOR DEC. 20. C-46533 THE CARDINAL GIVES A PARTY NEW YORK -- “Now what was it I wanted for Christmas?” seems to be what this young lady is thinking as she attends Cardinal Terence Cooke’s annual Christmas party in New York. The cardinal hosted the party for the children of the New York Foundling Hospital and other child care programs of Catholic Charities. Cardinal Cooke personally greeted all those in attendance to wish them a blessed Christmas and to express his gratitude for their generosity to the many youngsters who benefit from the proceeds of the annual affair. The party included entertainment by comedian Sam Levenson, the cardinal sang “Love Makes the World Go Round” solo and “Come All Ye Faithful” with Julius La Rosa, and Santa Claus was on hand with gifts for the children.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-45996 FILIPINO BISHOP DESCRIBES HIS PROBLEMS NEW YORK -- Bishop Felix Zafra y Sanchez of Dipolog in the Philippines stresses a point during a visit to Catholic Relief Services’ headquarters in New York. Commenting on the problems he faces in his diocese in Northwestern Mindanao, he described the Christian-Muslim conflict and the imposition of martial law by the government as among “the least of my concerns.” The 54-year-old prelate, the first and only bishop of the seven-year-old Dipolog see, heads a diocese of 3,600 square miles that includes some 350,000 Catholics. He has only 25 priests and 13 nuns to minister to the far-flung diocese. He cannot call any of his priests by phone, because there are no phones outside of Dipolog, where he is the pastor and only priest of the only parish in the small city. Bishop Safra said that he is most concerned with organizing farmers to “liberate” them from political exploitation, with establishing family life programs to offset government birth control efforts, with training lay catechists to enhance Christian life, and with “preaching Christian reconciliation” among all the peoples of the Southern Philippines.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-45698 HAPPY DAY FOR EIGHT YOUNGSTERS NEW YORK -- While Confirmation is normally not an unusual sacrament, it is for a group of eight students -- all of them brain-damaged or emotionally disturbed children -- as they are confirmed by Auxiliary Bishop Patrick Ahern of New York during a ceremony in St. Eugene’s Chapel of Sacred Heart Church in the Bronx. The youngsters are children at the Murray Hill Classes, a nonsectarian private school for children who have been excluded from public school because of the severity of their illnesses. The school rents the chapel from Sacred Heart Parish and uses it as a classroom building. Father Joseph Gleeson (right), associate pastor at the parish, is a volunteer teacher in the school’s released time religious education program. It was he who prepared the youngsters for Confirmation. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (CS-NY-6C-74-DS)Creator:Sheridan, Chris. (photographer), Catholic Church.
