The Weekly TImes - TWT - 8th May 2019

The Weekly Times - TWT - cheekily describes itself as a campaigning, crusading, truth-seeking, death defying, Aussie battler-aligned, one-eyed-Tiger-led news organisation dedicated to Sydney's north west.

Parish priest reflects on 100 years<br />

of Catholic life at St Kevin’s church<br />

SAINT KEVIN’S Catholic Church in Eastwood is celebrating a Centenary<br />

this year and Parish Priest Father Martin R Maunsell (pictured<br />

above) reflects on 100 years of Catholic life in this historic parish.<br />

What are the<br />

greatest milestones<br />

in the history of<br />

St. Kevin’s and the<br />

most significant<br />

changes?<br />

Without a doubt<br />

the implementations<br />

of the changing<br />

that happened from<br />

the Second Vatican<br />

Council that ended<br />

in 1965. This event<br />

opened the Church<br />

up to the times and<br />

culture that we are<br />

now living in.<br />

Also, the 23 years<br />

of Fr John Haseler<br />

as Parish Priest<br />

between 1966 until<br />

1989. He ‘enlivened’<br />

the parish in<br />

a way that has not<br />

happened before or<br />

since.<br />

Does St Kevin’s<br />

have a special charism<br />

or devotion?<br />

Not really, it has always<br />

been a parish<br />

that has been strong<br />

and constant in lay<br />

involvement.<br />

What has been<br />

your most memorable<br />

moment at St.<br />

Kevin’s?<br />

I have been here<br />

since January, 2014<br />

and it would be the<br />

100-year celebration<br />

Mass held in early<br />

March this year and<br />

the social gathering<br />

that followed.<br />

Has migration and<br />

multiculturalism<br />

changed parish life?<br />

Absolutely, up until<br />

30 years ago, it was<br />

a predominant Irish-<br />

Anglo parish. Now,<br />

it’s a great mixture of<br />

Anglo, Italian, Maltese,<br />

Chinese and<br />

Korean people and<br />

EMPLOYMENT<br />

This blessing is a curse<br />

POLICE are urging members of the Eastwood community to be<br />

aware of a blessing scam.<br />

“Blessing scams are elaborate frauds that are designed specifically to prey<br />

on elderly Chinese members of our community who maintain strong traditional<br />

cultural beliefs,” Ryde Police said.<br />

“Potential victims are approached on the street by members of the group committing<br />

the fraud, who convince these victims that they can cure an illness, or<br />

an evil spirit is following them and will harm members of their families unless a<br />

blessing ceremony is performed to remove the evil spirit.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> ceremony requires the victim to place all of their money and valuables in<br />

a bag to be blessed.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> bag is then given back to the victim, and they are instructed not to open<br />

it for several days or weeks and to not tell family members or the blessing will<br />

not work. “When the bag is finally opened, the valuables are no longer inside,<br />

and the suspects are long gone,” police said.<br />

Ryde Police are encourage people to be aware of the scam and warn friends<br />

and family members about the scam.<br />

influences.<br />

How important are<br />

St Kevin’s volunteers?<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are the lifeblood<br />

of the parish,<br />

especially in the liturgical<br />

and catechetical<br />

ministries where<br />

there are now over<br />

200 people who volunteer<br />

their resources.<br />

What is your first<br />

impression of St.<br />

Kevin’s?<br />

It Is a parish where<br />

there is much goodwill<br />

present that I<br />

have tried to challenge<br />

into active participation.<br />

What is your hope<br />

for the future?<br />

My hope for the future<br />

is to have more<br />

people involved especially<br />

people in<br />

their teens to the<br />

under 40 age gap.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re is a real challenge<br />

and weakness<br />

in that people of this<br />

age often do not see<br />

the Church as relevant<br />

to them.
