Editor's Desk
Continued from page 1A
his teaching them and through his
leading them.
Further, we stand firm in the
belief that part of the bishop’s
Leaching potential is the reflection
pf the life — the authentic Chris
tian life — which is apparent in
that part of the Church over
which he is the shepherd. The
Church of Raleigh, we believe, is
full of authentic Christian life,
and we are committed to reflect
ing this life.
Since the Church of the Raleigh
Diocese in every one of its 100
counties is the part of the Church
closest to us, the news of our dio
cese deserves as much attention
by us as do the happenings, for
instance, in the Dutch Church. In
many instances we believe that we
are being fairer to our readers by
carrying to them that diocesan
news which certainly reflects the
‘good news” of Christ’s message,
rather than by importing news
which is at best, a doubtful re
flection of the image which Christ
intends His Church to give to us
and the world.
In all truth our goal is to pre
sent to our readers the kind of
paper that will help them want to
call The North Carolina Catholic,
‘our paper” and be proud of it.
The question marks and periods
in this priest editor’s life are al
ways governed by that good.
Good points made by the editor
pf the Catholic paper for the Har
risburg, Pa. diocese. These reflec
tions are ours too.

stud the pending loss of a teach

self and a declining enrollment
were factors behind the decision
to close.
