SUMMARY:International Day of Unplugging
DESCRIPTION:In the USA\, the Reboot Network initiated the National Day of Unplugging to encourage people to unplug\, unwind\, relax and do things other than using digital technology\, electronics and social media for twenty four hours beginning at sundown on the first Friday in March. It builds on the Sabbath Manifesto which draws on and adapts the Jewish tradition of the Sabbath. \n\n\n\nAs Christians in Australia\, we can also reflect on the meaning for today’s world of the commandment to keep the Lord’s day holy. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church says: \n\n\n\nGod’s action is the model for human action. If God ‘rested and was refreshed’ on the seventh day\, we too ought to ‘rest’ and should let others\, especially the poor\, ‘be refreshed’. The sabbath brings everyday work to a halt ad provides a respite. It is a day of protest against the servitude of work and the worship of money. Catechism of the Catholic Church\, n 2172.\n\n\n\nDo we need rest and respite from digital technologies? Might we at times fall into servitude or even worship of social media? \n\n\n\nFind out more about the Sabbath Manifesto and the National Day of Unplugging here.

SUMMARY:International Women's Day
DESCRIPTION:Pope Francis is making small but significant steps towards greater inclusion of women in decision making and leadership roles in the Church. He has amended Canon Law so that women may be officially recognized as exercising the ministries of Lector and Acolyte. And he has appointed a woman as Under-Secretary to the Synod of Bishops – with the right to vote. This is a good day to pay attention to women’s contributions in our local Church too. Here is a list women theologians in Australia and New Zealand 160+ Australian and New Zealander Women in Theology You Should Know About  \n\n\n\nIn 2020 we marked the twentieth anniversary of the Australian Bishops’ response to research on the participation of women in the Catholic Church in Australia. The research results were published as Woman and Man: One in Christ Jesus (Harper Collins\, 1999) and the Bishops’ Social Justice Sunday Statement for 2000 was titled Woman and Man: the Bishops Respond. In 2019 the Office for Social Justice published a collection of essays marking these anniversaries. Titled Still Listening to the Spirit: Woman and Man Twenty Years Later\, the book was a collaboration with the Office for the Participation of Women. \n\n\n\nIn their foreword to the collection\, Archbishop Christopher Prowse and Bishop Vincent Long Van Nguyen acknowledge: \n\n\n\n… twenty years down the track\, women are still listening to the Spirit and seeking to engage the whole Church in a conversation about a more fulsome development of the participation of women in the Church\, for the sake of us all\, and for the sake of the Reign of God. There is unfinished business from the action commitments made by the bishops in 2000. There is also an opportunity to contribute to the communal discernment process of the Plenary Council 2020. This collection of essays enrages creatively with both of these elements of the present moment. Archbishop Christopher Prowse and Bishop Vincent Long\, Foreword\, Still Listening to the Spirit\n\n\n\nBuy Still Listening to the Spirit: Woman and Man Twenty Years Later here.

SUMMARY:2011: Fukushima Earthquake and Tsunami
DESCRIPTION:On this day an earthquake and tsunami in Fukushima Prefecture in Japan killed 18\,500 people. Damage to a nuclear power plant in this event caused widespread contamination and the displacement of thousands of people. Reflecting on these events\, the Catholic Bishops Conference of Japan called for the abolition on nuclear power: \n\n\n\nWe\, the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Japan\, appeal to all people who share our common home called Earth that we join hands\, rise together and act in solidarity to end nuclear power generation. For that purpose\, we turn first to the Catholic Church throughout the world\, seeking cooperation and solidarity. Then\, building on that\, we hope to develop a global solidarity that transcends religions\, races and nations. Catholic Bishops Conference of Japan

SUMMARY:2019: Death of Deacon Boniface Perdjert
DESCRIPTION:Deacn Boniface\, a respected Elder and the first Aboriginal permanent deacon\, passed away in 2019. As the national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Catholic Council’s tribute page for Deacon Boniface says: \n\n\n\nHis words and actions spoke loudly to the members of the Wadeye Community – of which he was a deeply loved and respected Elder – but also to the Catholic Hierarchy with whom he shared his wisdom on many official occasions.  http://www.natsicc.org.au/a-tribute-to-deacon-boniface.html \n\n\n\nOn the first anniversary of Deacon Boniface’s death we share for your reflection these words that he wrote in the later 1970s: \n\n\n\nGod did not begin to take an interest in people with the incarnation of his Son\, nor with Abraham. My people existed here in Australia thousands of years before Abraham. In all that time God was with my people. He worked through their culture. He was saving us despite human weakness. He was preparing us for the day when he would see the features of Aboriginals in the image of his Son. So i must recognize\, I must use the things of God that are in my culture. I mus use them in his service. If I do not do this\, my faith and my service are shallow. They are pretending. They belong to someone else\, not me. God has asked us t love him with wjhole mind\, heart and soul. So i must give myself to God as an Aboriginal. This is what God wants or he would not have made me what I am.  http://www.natsicc.org.au/a-tribute-to-deacon-boniface.html

SUMMARY:1941: Death of William Cooper
DESCRIPTION:William Cooper was an inspirational Aboriginal leader in New South Wales and Victoria in the early part of the 20th century and a founding secretary of the Australian Aborigines’ League. The league was created to lobby state and federal governments on behalf of Aboriginal people.  The powerful symbolic gesture of a Day of Mourning on 26 January\, along with a petition to the British monarch calling for Aboriginal representation in federal parliament\, inspired generations of activists working for justice for Indigenous Australians.

SUMMARY:St Isidore\, patron saint of the internet
DESCRIPTION:In 1997 Pope John Paul II declared Isidore of Seville the patron saint of the internet.  Isidore was a scholar with encyclopedic knowledge. In his writings he sought to collect\, systematize and synthesize all existing knowledge. \n\n\n\nSpeaking at a General Audience on 18 June 2008\, Pope Benedict XVI\, highlighted how Isidore combined contemplation and action.  He went on to quote Isidore: \n\n\n\nTherefore let the servant of God\, imitating Christ\, dedicate himself to contemplation without denying himself active life. Behaving otherwise would not be right. Indeed\, just as we must love God in contemplation\, so we must love our neighbour with action. It is therefore impossible to live without the presence of both the one and the other form of life\, nor can we live without experiencing both the one and the other. http://w2.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/audiences/2008/documents/hf_ben-xvi_aud_20080618.html \n\n\n\nPrayer Seeking the Intercession of St Isidore\n\n\n\nAlmighty and eternal Godwho has created us in thine imageand bade us to seek after all that is good\, true and beautiful\,especially in the divine person of Thy only-begotten Son\,Our Lord Jesus Christ\,grant we beseech Thee that through the intercession of St Isidore\, bishop and doctor\,during our journeys through the internetwe will direct our hand and eyesonly to that which is pleasing to Theeand treat with charity and patience all those soulswhom we encounter.Father\, we ask you this\, through Christ Our Lord.Amen
