Local Catholic priest marks 50 years since being ordained – Bryan

He introduced a couple now married 33 years, inspired a family to become Catholic through his example and serves as a comfort to many as a chaplain at St. Joseph Health System.

Monsignor John Malinowski, known as Father John, will celebrate 50 years since being ordained for the Diocese of Austin with a mass and reception Saturday.

But it won’t be an event to honor him.

“My celebration is an act of thanksgiving to all-mighty God for 50 years of giving me the ability to be able to serve the people of this community,” Malinowski said.

Born in Chappell Hill in 1935, the oldest of six siblings, Malinowski has been a part of the Bryan-College Station community for 40 years. He served at parishes in Bellville, Austin and Belmead before coming to Bryan as pastor for St. Anthony Catholic Church in 1973.

Michael Patranella was a senior in high school and president of the Catholic Youth Organization when Malinowski came to St. Anthony. He has been an important part of Patranella’s life since then, having introduced Patranella to his future wife, Eagle display advertising manager Joanne Patranella, in 1979.

“He’s given everybody in my family sacraments of matrimony, baptism, first communion, confirmation and last rites,” Patranella said. “He’s really a stable block of granite that’s always been there for us. If anything ever happened to him, we’d have a big void in our lives.”

For the last four weeks, Malinowski has been recovering from major lung surgery, details of which he did not wish to discuss because he didn’t want people to feel sorry for him. He hopes to return to work in the next four weeks.

For the time being, other priest in the area, including Monsignor John McCaffrey, who served under Malinowski at St. Anthony, have been subbing as chaplains at the hospital.

“Monsignor has been my mentor, as he is truly a priest’s priest, who emulates the priesthood of Jesus Christ,” said McCaffrey, who is the pastor at St. Joseph Catholic Church.

“I am a better man, priest and pastor because of the 32 years that “Big” Monsignor John modeled his priesthood to me,” he added. “I am a richer priest because of the legacy that Monsignor John lives today and exhibits those things that matter the most, those things that remain and never wear out: faith, hope and love.”

Becky Scamardo, an administrator at St. Anthony who was Malinowski’s secretary during his time at the parish, was Baptist before working for the church.

“Father John is the reason we became Catholic … because of the way he lived his life and always put God and the church first,” Scamardo said.

But Malinowski’s role as chaplain means he serves people of all faiths, offering them support and spiritual guidance. He became a full-time Catholic chaplain at the hospital after retiring from St. Anthony in 1996.

“I’m called upon now to provide services for people of other denominations because they might not have an affiliation, so I’m not out promoting the Catholic faith,” Malinowski said. “I’m out promoting the healing ministry of Jesus Christ.”

Although Pope John Paul II conferred on him the honorary title of monsignor in 1985 and even celebrated Mass with him, Malinowski considers some of his biggest accomplishments to be the times he made a person’s stay at the hospital meaningful and provided the “healing power of the Lord’s presence.”

“I’m no hero. I’m a servant of the Lord. That’s all,” Malinowski said.

Woolwich heroine says Catholic faith inspired her to confront attackers

A mother of two who calmly confronted the Woolwich attackers on Wednesday has attributed her courage to her Catholic faith.

Ingrid Loyau-Kennet, a practising Catholic, told the Daily Telegraph: “I live my life as a Christian. I believe in thinking about others and loving thy neighbour. We all have a duty to look after each other. A whole group of people walking towards those guys would have found it easy to take those weapons out of their hands. But me, on my own, I couldn’t.”

Mrs Loyau-Kennet was travelling on the Number 53 bus through Woolwich in south east London on Wednesday afternoon when she saw a man lying in the road. She immediately got out to help him.

She said: “I took his arm to feel his pulse. There was blood on the pavement where he had been dragged and blood was pouring out of him. Suddenly this excited black man came up to me and said: ‘Get away from the body; don’t touch it.’ I looked up and I could see red hands, a bloodied revolver, bloodied meat cleaver and a butcher’s knife. OK, I thought, this is bad.”

After speaking to the first suspect, Mrs Loyau-Kennett asked the second suspect “if he wanted to sit down and give me what he had in his hands”.

Mrs Loyau-Kennet remained with the soldier, identified yesterday as Drummer Lee Rigby, despite an onlooker advising her to move away. She said: “I told her I wasn’t leaving; as long as I don’t see professionals here, I’m staying. He knows me; he knows I’m calm. I’m not afraid whatsoever. I’ll stay until something happens.”

In a statement on behalf of the Bishops of England and Wales on Thursday, Archbishop Emeritus Kevin McDonald of Southwark said: “The events in Woolwich yesterday have shocked us all. First and foremost, our prayers are with Lee Rigby, his family and friends.

“At this time it is vital for people of all faiths to show real solidarity in their rejection of violence and in their commitment to peace. In particular it is vital that we build on the excellent relations we have between faith communities in this country, not least with the Muslim community.

“The words of Pope John Paul II in 1986 resound more clearly than ever: ‘Dialogue between Christians and Muslims is today more necessary than ever. It flows from our fidelity to God and supposes that we know how to recognise God by faith, and to witness to him by word and deed.’ That spirit of mutual respect is vital for the future.”

Faith groups keep vigil on Boy Scouts’ Thursday vote on gay policy

Leaders of the Boy Scouts of America are set for a final vote Thursday on a proposal to end a ban on openly gay scouts while continuing the ban on gay adult scout leaders.

Some 1,400 local leaders convene as the BSA National Council in the Dallas-Fort Worth suburb of Grapevine this week.

Churches and religious groups, which sponsor almost 70 percent of the more than 100,000 scouting units in the U.S., are divided on the issue of gays — conservative faiths are girding for a potentially culture-changing decision.

Earlier this month, Baptist and evangelical groups backing the longtime bans held dozens of rallies across the U.S..

The conservative Family Research Council and a coalition of self-described “pro-family” groups opposing open homosexuality in scouting have sent out “urgent requests for prayer and action” in mass emails last week asking people to express that opposition at OnMyHonor.net.

Yet the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as the Mormon Church, which sponsors almost half of the faith-based charters (almost 421,000 boys and young men), recently shifted its position and now supports banning only openly gay adult leaders.

In the recent past, LDS, evangelical Christian groups, Baptist groups and the Catholic Church, have indicated there would be a mass exodus fromscouting if the 2.7-million-member organization permitted gay scouts and leaders.

But LDS leaders issued a statement late last month saying they had enjoyed a 100-year “strong, rewarding relationship” the Boy Scouts of America and were “satisfied that BSA has made a thoughtful, good-faith effort” to address one of the most complex issues.

“We appreciate the positive things contained in this current proposal that will help build and strengthen the moral character and leadership skills of youth as we work together in the future,” church leadership wrote April 25.

Local and national Catholic leaders have declined to comment on this proposal to deal with a difficult and sensitive issue until the vote is in, yet the National Catholic Committee on Scouting indicated Catholic teaching on homosexuality won’t be changing.

“The NCCS will respond to the outcome of the May 24 vote according to the truths of our Catholic faith and in conformity with the church’s teaching,” the group said in its last statement, updated May 15.

The Catholic Church, which sponsors almost 284,000 scouts and is the biggest sponsor in northern Colorado, teaches that those who experience same-sex attraction should be treated with dignity and respect, but all sexual acts belong within a marriage, which is one and one woman, the committee said.

The United Methodist Church, which sponsors more than 371,000 scouts, has not issued a denomination-wide statement on the proposed policy, but the United Methodist Board of Church and Society has called for discriminatory policies to be dropped

The United Church of Christ supports the policy change to “welcome all Boy Scouts.” The National Jewish Committee on Scouting also supports lifting the ban on gay scouts and leaders.

Rev. Peter Morales, president of the Unitarian Universalist Association, said the association has long opposed the BSA’s discriminatory restrictions against scouts and leaders.

The atheist orthodoxy that drove me to faith

Last Easter, when I was just beginning to explore the possibility that, despite what I had previously believed and been brought up to believe, there might be something to the Catholic faith, I read Letters to a Young Catholic by George Weigel. One passage in particular struck me.

Talking of the New Testament miracles and the meaning of faith, Weigel writes: “In the Catholic view of things, walking on water is an entirely sensible thing to do. It’s staying in the boat, hanging tightly to our own sad little securities, that’s rather mad.”

In the following months, that life outside the boat – the life of faith –would come to make increasing sense to me, until eventually I could no longer justify staying put. Last weekend I was baptised and confirmed into the Catholic Church.

Of course, this wasn’t supposed to happen. Faith is something my generation is meant to be casting aside, not taking up. I was raised without any religion and was eight when 9/11 took place. Religion was irrelevant in my personal life and had provided my formative years with a rolling-news backdrop of violence and extremism. I avidly read Dawkins, Harris and Hitchens, whose ideas were sufficiently similar to mine that

I could push any uncertainties I had to the back of my mind. After all, what alternative was there to atheism?

As a teenager, I realised that I needed to read beyond my staple polemicists, as well as start researching the ideas of the most egregious enemies of reason, such as Catholics, to properly defend my world view. It was here, ironically, that the problems began.

I started by reading Pope Benedict’s Regensburg address, aware that it had generated controversy at the time and was some sort of attempt –futile, of course – to reconcile faith and reason. I also read the shortest book of his I could find, On Conscience. I expected – and wanted – to find bigotry and illogicality that would vindicate my atheism. Instead, I was presented with a God who was the Logos: not a supernatural dictator crushing human reason, but the self-expressing standard of goodness and objective truth towards which our reason is oriented, and in which it is fulfilled, an entity that does not robotically control our morality, but is rather the source of our capacity for moral perception, a perception that requires development and formation through the conscientious exercise of free will.

It was a far more subtle, humane and, yes, credible perception of faith than I had expected. It didn’t lead to any dramatic spiritual epiphany, but did spur me to look further into Catholicism, and to re-examine some of the problems I had with atheism with a more
critical eye.

First, morality. Non-theistic morality, to my mind, tended towards two equally problematic camps: either it was subjective to the point of meaninglessness or, when followed logically, entailed intuitively repulsive outcomes, such as Sam Harris’s stance on torture. But the most appealing theories which could circumvent these problems, like virtue ethics, often did so by presupposing the existence of God. Before, with my caricatured understanding of theism, I’d considered that nonsensical. Now, with the more detailed understanding I was starting to develop, I wasn’t so sure.

Next, metaphysics. I soon realised that relying on the New Atheists for my counter-arguments to the existence of God had been a mistake: Dawkins, for instance, gives a disingenuously cursory treatment of St Thomas Aquinas in The God Delusion, engaging only with the summary of Aquinas’s proofs in the Five Ways – and misunderstanding those summarised proofs to boot. Acquainting myself fully with Thomistic-Aristotelian ideas, I found them to be a valid explanation of the natural world, and one on which atheist philosophers had failed to make a coherent assault.

What I still did not understand was how a theology that operated in harmony with human reason could simultaneously be, in Benedict XVI’s words, “a theology grounded in biblical faith”. I’d always assumed that sola scriptura (“scripture alone”), with its evident shortcomings and fallacies, was how all consistent, believing Christians read the Bible. So I was surprised to discover that this view could be refuted just as robustly from a Catholic standpoint – reading the Bible through the Church and its history, in light of Tradition – as from an atheist one.

I looked for absurdities and inconsistencies in the Catholic faith that would derail my thoughts from the unnerving conclusion I was heading towards, but the infuriating thing about Catholicism is its coherency: once you accept the basic conceptual structure, things fall into place with terrifying speed. “The Christian mysteries are an indivisible whole,” wrote Edith Stein in The Science of the Cross: “If we become immersed in one, we are led to all the others.” The beauty and authenticity of even the most ostensibly difficult parts of Catholicism, such as the sexual ethics, became clear once they were viewed not as a decontextualised list of prohibitions, but as essential components in the intricate body of the Church’s teaching.

There was one remaining problem, however: my lack of familiarity with faith as something lived. To me, the whole practice and vernacular of religion – prayer, hymns, Mass – was something wholly alien, which I was reluctant to step into.

My friendships with practising Catholics finally convinced me that I had to make a decision. Faith, after all, isn’t merely an intellectual exercise, an assent to certain propositions; it’s a radical act of the will, one that engenders a change of the whole person. Books had taken me to Catholicism as a plausible conjecture, but Catholicism as a living truth I came to understand only through observing those already serving the Church within that life of grace.

I grew up in a culture that has largely turned its back on faith. It’s why I was able to drift through life with my ill-conceived atheism going unchallenged, and at least partially explains the sheer extent of the popular support for the New Atheists: for every considerate and well-informed atheist, there will be others with no personal experience of religion and no interest in the arguments who are simply drifting with the cultural tide.

As the popularity of belligerent, all-the-answers atheism wanes, however, thoughtful Christians able to explain and defend their faith will become an increasingly vital presence in the public square. I hope I, in a small way, am an example of the appeal that Catholicism can still hold in an age that at times appears intractably opposed to it.

Area legal professionals form St. Thomas More Society

By Tim Johnson

FORT WAYNE —Catholic leaders of northeast Indiana met on Wednesday to complete the formation of the St. Thomas More Society of Fort Wayne, a private association affiliated with the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend, serving under the oversight of Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades.

After several months of planning, the society formally adopted its constitution and bylaws and elected its founding governors and officers. Father Mark A. Gurtner has been appointed chaplain by Bishop Rhoades.

“The society is a wonderful opportunity to honor and emulate St. Thomas More, the patron saint of attorneys, statesmen and politicians,” said Father Gurtner. “Indeed, his steadfast conviction in the face of death is a reminder for legal professionals to not forsake their private conscious for their public duties.”

Father Gurtner told Today’s Catholic of his duties to the society: “First not only have I been appointment chaplain, but as a canon lawyer, I enjoy membership in the society in my own right. I am also a founding member.”

“My duties as chaplain though will focus on the spiritual well being of the society,” he said. “I will offer Mass for the group periodically, seek to foster the spiritual life of its members, and be available as spiritual counsel for its members individually and for the group as a whole. I would also anticipate that I would serve to represent the society to the diocesan bishop and to represent the diocesan bishop to the society.”

The St. Thomas More Society is a Catholic professional association that promotes the mutual interaction of faith and culture in the realm of law and public policy. Any lawyer, member of the judiciary, canon lawyer, law professor or student at an ABA accredited law school residing, practicing, serving or studying primarily in the greater Fort Wayne area is eligible to apply for membership.

Magistrate Craig Bobay of the Allen Circuit Court and member of St. Jude Parish, Fort Wayne, said, “We hope to meet several times per year to discuss issues of faith and the legal profession, attend Mass together, pray together and help organize an annual Red Mass.”

“Catholic and non-Catholic lawyers and judges should join the society to explore the place for our Christian faith in the legal profession,” he encouraged.

Michael Barranda, an attorney with Burt-Blee-Dixon-Sutton and Bloom, LLP, and member of St. Vincent de Paul Parish, Fort Wayne, encouraged Catholics in the legal profession to consider joining the society.

“Legal professionals are required to take continuing education classes,” Barranda said. “In addition to fellowship, the society offers members educational opportunities that will strengthen both their faith and their practice.”

Father Gurtner added, “I would encourage those in the legal profession to join the society in order to seek even more fully to integrate their Catholic faith into their work. Also, membership in the society will serve to deepen their own faith because it will afford them access to special Masses offered for the society, will join them in the spiritual benefits of mutual prayer for each other in the society, will be a source of encouragement for the members to stay faithful to the tenets of the faith in the face of opposition, and will offer members continuing education in the faith and the legal profession through periodically-offered presentations.”

“Each of the founding governors is more than willing to speak with prospective members of the society,” Barranda noted. “Incidentally, we just happen to represent a great cross-section of the area parishes. Applications for membership are available through the Membership Chair, Chris Nancarrow.”

Attorney Tom Blee of Fort Wayne’s Burt-Blee-Dixon-Sutton and Bloom, LLP, firm, said the “society is being reenergized by Magistrate Craig Bobay and some associates with a new constitution, bylaws and a membership drive.”

Bobay told Today’s Catholic, “Bishop Rhoades has mentioned that a society existed in his previous diocese, and a few of us got together, and prepared a proposed framework for the group. We then presented it to the bishop, who gave us his blessing and encouraged us to identify people to make up an initial board of directors, and then plan to recruit members.”

Blee said in addition to preparing and hosting the annual Red Mass, a Mass for those in the legal profession, the society will arrange programs and activities related to the intellectual and religious growth of the members, as well as honor those professionals that represent the principles and ideals of St. Thomas More.

Blee said, “An essential goal of the group is to create a strong membership of attorneys, which will attract prominent speakers to the St. Thomas More Red Mass celebration, and promote the unity of the family, the dignity of the person and the justice of civil society — all traits exhibited by the life and death of this patron saint of statesmen, politicians and lawyers.”

Blee has been devoted to St. Thomas More since his admission to the law profession at age 45. He wears a St. Thomas More medal, and a painting of Thomas More hangs in his office. The painting is used at the Red Mass in Fort Wayne.

Blee said, “When something is demanded of me because of my faith — something which seems just too hard, or even unfair — I need only to think of St. Thomas More in his prison cell — and it doesn’t seem hard or unfair at all.”

The elected officers are president — Magistrate Judge Craig J. Bobay, Allen Circuit Court; vice president — Liz Brown, civil and domestic mediator; treasurer — Tom Niezer, Barrett McNagny LLP; and Judge Michael J. Kramer, Noble Superior Court.

Founding governors also include: Kathleen Anderson — Barnes Thornburg LLP, Michael Barranda — Burt, Blee, Dixon, Sutton Bloom, LLP; Judge Thomas J. Felts — Judge, Allen Circuit Court; Scott Hall — Hall Gooden, LLP; Judge Kent W. Kiracofe — Wells Circuit Court; Chris Nancarrow — chief deputy, Allen County Clerk of Courts.

Professionals interested in membership opportunities may contact Membership Chair Chris Nancarrow at cnancarr@gmail.com.

Korean Student Finds Catholic Faith, Inspires Others

Korean Student Finds Catholic Faith, Inspires Others

CUMMING—When Jinny Kim entered Pinecrest Academy, she was in a new school and in a new country, surrounded by people who measured success in a different way.

Kim, whose full name is Jin Sol Kim, was born and raised in a town near Seoul, South Korea. She had lived in the Philippines for a few years before arriving in the United States three years ago to finish her high school education at Pinecrest, an independent Catholic school of the Legionaries of Christ in Cumming.

Growing up in South Korea, she was surprised not everybody in America pursues money and material success and that young people are encouraged to explore their interests.

“The teachers and schools are more interested in giving the students a chance to do what they want to do in their life,” she said of American schools. “In Korea a lot of the students are … all pressed to focus only on study.”

One of three children of Kunhee Choi and Juhwa Kim, Jinny said her mother wanted her and her siblings to have a more diverse education focused not only on academics but also areas such as sports and leadership. She is the first one in her family to study in the United States.

As one can imagine, being in a new place without family, friends or anything familiar can be a stressful transition, and for Kim it was no different. The language barrier caused some initial difficulty for the teen, but over the last three years she has excelled, earning a 4.14 grade point average.

She first lived with a family friend in Georgia until a family situation caused her hosts to move to New York. That left her searching for a new place to live. After requests went out to the school community, Jocelyn Sotomayor, assistant principal, and her family, who are members of St. Brendan the Navigator Church in Cumming, offered to host Kim during her remaining time at Pinecrest.

Sotomayor said, “Jinny has transformed the lives of so many people around her, starting with mine. She is caring, determined and is always looking for ways to learn more, to learn new things. Quickly after she arrived at Pinecrest, she found her place within our school and certainly she found a home in our family.”

“They are my family,” said Kim of the Sotomayors. “We had happy moments, sad moments together, and I learned a lot of things from them. … They are just a part of me.”

Kim said she learned about the sacredness of marriage, the importance of family and also about the Catholic faith.

She became a Christian during her time in the Philippines. At Pinecrest, Kim noticed something different about the Catholic faith and was inspired by the devotion of the school community, so much so that she entered the Catholic Church two years ago.

“The first time I was inspired was at the Mass,” she said, noting that she just felt something different spiritually in a Catholic Church. “I can’t explain what it was … but it was beautiful.”

“All of my friends are really devoted and they practice their faith,” she said. “So I kind of started questioning what I was believing in … and got to know more about the Catholic faith, and then I converted.”

“After that, everything made sense,” she said.

Kim is planning to attend Gainesville State College in the fall. She also has a dream of serving this country through the military and hopes to participate in the Military Accessions Vital to National Interest program, which permits the enlistment of legal aliens with certain vital skills in the U.S. Army. Ultimately she would like to serve as an Army surgeon.

Her accomplishments already and the standards she sets for herself suggest she will reach her goals, a Pinecrest faculty member said.

“Jinny never settles for mediocre and always pushes herself to a higher level of understanding, of excellence,” said Elizabeth Hetzel, her English teacher. “But it’s Jinny’s incredible grace that I find most striking. Despite her many achievements, she remains humble and approachable.”

Jocelyn Christianson, high school campus minister, called her “a girl with a huge heart that she continually puts at the service of God and of others.”

“I always sense a great desire in her to do something to love more, whether it be for her family far away, for her friends and classmates, for the poor and neglected, or for God himself,” she said. “She doesn’t settle for what she has accomplished, but strives for higher. I know that whatever she does, she will excel in, because not only is she a hard worker, but she is moved from within and there is no stopping her once she puts her mind to something.”

Asked what advice she would give someone entering a new environment—whether it be high school or a new country—Kim said, “Define what success is for you and don’t let success define you. … Success is different for everybody.”

“And always try to be humble,” she added.
