Jack Frerker, a former NFPC staff member from Belleville, Ill.,resents the slippery memories of the younger clergy. "Few rememberor credit the NFPC's foresight and courage. ... Apparently theyassume (the advances NFPC fought for) are immemorial its"Moment of Truth" statement of 25 years ago. Instead, in aletter to Cardinal William Keeler, archbishop of Baltimore and presidentof the National Conference of Catholic Bishops, the board cited a recentuntitled "pastoral reflection" submitted by 12 bishops to theconference's Ad Hoc Committee A committee formed with the purpose of addressing a specific issue or issues, which theoretically is disbanded once its raison d'etre is finished  on Mission and Structure, headed byCardinal Joseph Bernardin of Chicago. (More than 40 bishops have sinceendorsed the reflection.)Instead of challenging the bishops, the NFPC proposed to join them inseeking "to find ways to have more open discussion in a climate oftrust ... by considering current issues in the church that we seem notto address openly."The bishop's laundry list was remarkably akin to the NFPC's1971 document. It asked to discuss issues such as the priest shortage,priests' morale, ecumenical issues, school funding, women andequality in the church, the relationship of youth and Hispanics to thechurch, sexual ethics, abortion, homosexuality in the priesthood,optional celibacy, and the like.The federation also wants improvements in Preaching, liturgy,relationships with the poor and with Rome.The remarkable aspect of Rice's polite letter to Keeler is thatthe long list had come from the bishops' mid-July letter, not fromthe NFPC agenda. The bishops and the priests are in the same pew.Toward the close of the four-day meeting, NFPC board members reportedon their respective regions. The bread-and-butter items remained,including retirement packages and burial allowances. Other issues rangedfrom the death penalty to pig wrestling as a parish fundraiser inWisconsin. But the tone had changed from hostility to helpfulness.Rice ended his reflection by urging priests to communicate. He quotedfrom an address by Australian Bishop Raymond Benjamin to the NFPC'sbrother conference in Australia:"If the church family is to not just survive, [url=http://www.marshawnLynch24jersey.com/game-jersey-29-seattle-seahawks-jersey...
