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 />

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.
