The capacity to
change your life
2
by Christine Bell
What kind of insanity would possess a middle­aged woman
and mother of an 11 and 13 year old to boot, to uproot all
from a comfortable life in the suburbs of Auckland, New
Zealand and head for Radway, a tiny town in Northern Alberta,
Canada We’re talking maybe 150 people on a good day,
flat prairie land, ­30 C in winter – and a simple trailer for
accommodation. Some might call me crazy, the more discerning
might see the stamp of the Holy Spirit.
In this small community lies John Paul II Bible School ­ a
school that has the capacity to change your life. Sounds exciting
It is.
I attended the year’s course commencing in the fall of 2005
and ending June 2006. There were about 45 students in my
class, mainly 18 to 20 year olds from across Canada, with
Scotland, the USA, Togo and New Zealand represented.
So what happened there We grew and then we grew some
more! Dynamic teachers taught us about our Catholic faith,
what it is that we believe, and so importantly, why we believe
it. I came full of questions. We laughed, we cried, we
supported each other through the healing of past hurts (we
all have them!), we prayed, sang and worshiped Jesus, the
One who loves us beyond our comprehension and we even
had some of the rough patches in our characters rounded out
a little, with the help of sand paper – community living!
Yes, it all took some courage.
Admittedly, there were some initial reluctant starters. However,
on completion, a transformation had happened before
my very eyes. I witnessed several shy, timid young women,
embarrassed to stand and address the class at the beginning
of the year, blossom into glowing young women, confidently
able to share their stories of their journey and walk with Jesus
in Canadian schools during outreach in May. Truly, the
change was astonishing! I saw the guys treat the young
women with great respect and brotherly love and grow in
their passion for Jesus. The person who entered the doors of
JPII in the fall of 2005 was not the same person who left in
June 2006. Yes, this had been a Holy Spirit thing. I felt so
proud of these fine young men and women who were willing
to witness to Jesus in our hurting world, a world so desperate
for His love, grace and mercy.
The one thought that kept occurring to me throughout the
year was – I wish I’d had this opportunity when I was 18. It
would have had such an influence on so many of my important
life decisions that lay before me, as I left home and school and
started living in the real world.
Praise God that such an opportunity will be provided in New
Zealand this February, 2007. The Catholic Discipleship College
will open in Auckland, closely modeled on that of John Paul II
Bible School in Radway.
And if you think you can’t get your kids to go, that it just ain’t
cool, get down on your knees and pray. That’s where the power
lies. Would I send my own 2 kids Absolutely. And if they
didn’t want to go I wouldn’t discount a bribe! That’s how
important I believe such a school as this is for our young adults,
us “oldies”, our Catholic community and our nation. Call me
crazy if you like, but as one Mum put it, “My sole goal in life is to
make sure I see my kids in heaven!” After all, that’s what it’s all
about.

APPEAL
Dear Brothers and
Sisters in the Lord,
I am sure you must wonder what happens to your donation.
Let me outline a few of our costs. I don’t have to
tell you that young people have hearty appetites. Although
our cook, Candace Forcier is very provident,
every month we spend a minimum of $4,000.00 for food
and household supplies.
We bring in the finest teachers available.
In the last month we were blessed with teachings from
Father Scott McCaig, the priest in charge of the Companions
of the Cross in Ottawa, Father Terry Donahue,
Secretary to the Papal Nuncio, also in Ottawa, Mr. Jim
Murphy, the American who courageously carried a huge
cross across the United States from coast to coast,
Father Clare Watrin, well­known founder of the Live­
In Movement, and now a missionary in St. Lucia in the
Caribbean. These are just a sampling of the caliber of
teachers at the Bible School. As you can imagine,
stipends and air fares are quite costly. There there are
all those other costs, such as salaries, office supplies,
utilities, newsletter production, postage, vehicle
maintenance, gasoline, advertising and insurance,
taxes, etc. The list could go on and on.
Four times a year, I come to you and acknowledge our
poverty, our financial need. For some reason, our donations
are down considerably from last year. I know Jesus
told us in Chapter 6 of St. Matthew not to worry
what we are to eat, to wear, etc. Yet in my humanity, I
have come to battle hard against worry. Jesus foresaw
that one, too.
He reminds me all the time of his commandment:
“Which of you, by worrying, can add a single thing to
your life So I tell you, ­ Do not worry!
Your heavenly Father knows the things that you need.
Who among you would give his son a snake if he asked
for a fish”
So Lord, please help me to live by your Word and not by
the evidence of my senses. Help me to know that my sight
is often the enemy of my vision, your vision, Lord. It is
your plan that I learn to trust in you, as a child has trust
in his father.
Forgive me, Father, for all those times I failed to have
expectant faith in your overflowing abundance, full measure,
pressed down and running over. Help my unbelief,
Father. Help me to live every day not by bread alone, but
by every word proceeding from your mouth. Thank you
Father for providing for all our needs according to your
riches in glory!
I thank you, our friends, for all your open hearted generosity
and listening to my appeal for funds. I want to thank
you for being sensitive to the promptings of the Holy
Spirit, as he invites you to be sharers and companions
with us in our ministry to youth. God never forgets a
single thing. As you give to the Lord’s work, expect Him
to fill your storehouse with immeasurable and bountiful
blessings.
Sincerely in the love of Jesus,
Kilian O’Donovan

Treat to Me
By Coralee Grilz
Father Clare Watrin was our speaker the week of
Valentine’s Day. He is a man who is so kind, gentle, loving
and caring. I was journaling about how my grandfather
passed away on Valentine’s Day in 1984. It didn’t
really hit me until I was in the chapel praying. I felt in my
heart strongly from God that Fr. Clare is a vision of my
grandfather Arnold Tobin. Here is a poem that I have
written.
It is one day till Valentine’s Day.
On this day in 1984,
My grand­daddy Tobin
Passed away and I miss him lots.
There is a man here by the name of Father Clare
Who looks like you, grand­daddy,
Revealing to me what you looked like,
How you acted, and how sweet you really are.
Thinking of you today and what it must be like to be with
Jesus,
I really wish I could have got to know you.
But one day, I will be there to meet with you,
To reminisce about things that have gone on in your life.
My dreams and realities of what you were like
Have just come true!
When I first planned on coming to Bible School,
I thought I was just coming to a school. I had no idea
how much impact living in a Christian community
would have on me. I lived in university dorms for the
last two years prior to coming to JPII, so I figured it
would be the same experience. I didn’t expect the
entire community to become like my family away
from home.
Every one of the girls who go to school this
year seem like they really are my true sisters. Having sisters
is one thing I’ve always wanted, as I grew up in a family
with three brothers. That doesn’t mean the guys are left out,
though. They, along with all the staff, make up the rest of
our family. Whenever someone is missing even for just a
couple of hours, it is noticed. We recently had Spring Break
and I couldn’t wait to get back, simply because I missed
seeing everyone during those ten days.
Living in community as a group of Christians gives
us more than just family. It gives us accountability to the
faith. When I was living in the university dorms, I didn’t
really have a lot of Christian fellowship, and I certainly
wasn’t living with anyone who would hold me accountable
to the teachings of the Church. Most of the Christian friends
that I did have were not Catholic. I know that I will not live
in a community like this for all my life, but a year like this
one serves as a foundation for the rest of my life.
Since I’m from Wisconsin, the family I have here in
community helps me when I’m so far from home.
When the US Thanksgiving came along, the cooks made
me a Thanksgiving dinner and some of my friends decorated
a special table for me. One weekend, some of my
friends came back and chipped in to buy me an “Everybody
Loves an American” T­shirt. On that same weekend, someone
had bought a puzzle shaped like an eagle with landmarks
from the US on it. For my 22 nd birthday, the cook
made my cake shaped like a T­shirt and mixed frosting together
to make it look tie­dyed. She knew from all the tiedyed
shirts I have that I love tie­dyed things. My JPII family
has gone out of their way to let me know how much they
love me and are glad that I’m here.
Coming to JPII for the year is much more than classes
and outreach. Every year, the class bonds to form a family.
Everyone brings so much to the community. I’m so glad I
came this year.
The experiences I’ve had I will remember for a lifetime.

1 st JPII DVD Arrives
After much sweat and tears, we have in our possession the first DVD for our “Expanding the
Vision” pilot project. Jim Murphy, an inspiring teacher and great friend to the Bible School
shares insights about Praise and Worship, and how we truly are elevated to the heavens when we
worship God as He deserves. With the help of our test group, we desire to expand and improve
this new service of JPII. This teaching is great to share with family and friends. Perhaps the Lord
is leading you to gather as a small group. Respond with a whole­hearted “YES”.
Until May 1 st , any donation made to our school of $20 or more, we will return to you a copy of the
first DVD in Jim Murphy’s Praise and Worship Series. But remember – don’t keep it to yourself...
Share the flame with those around you,
and watch the fire burn!

Lenten Left N’Love
By Cara Schaffrick
For as long as I’ve been interested in the Catholic faith,
which has been only a decade or so, I looked on Lent with
suspicious shades. Advent has candles, special songs, and
to be honest, ended with Christmas.
Yet Easter’s divine seemed less glorious than the gifts I’d
have in tow in December. In fact, Easter and the Triduum
only got me out of school for two extra days. We went to
Church and on Thursday, we went to Church and school.
Easter was supposed to be the summit of the Christian Faith
and the Lenten season was a great grace, but I couldn’t see
why. Actually, my birthday always fell a couple of days after
Ash Wednesday, or even on it, which meant I couldn’t
even have cake on my
special day.
It wasn’t until recently that I learned the meaning of such
sacrifices. I don’t abstain from meat on Friday or banish
chocolate for 40 days because God is strict and unfun, but
because nothing here on earth is greater than my Father in
heaven, and therefore, nothing should be so great that I
couldn’t give up to please Jesus.
I helped out with a group of Catholic children in the Smoky
Lake religion class. Not to my surprise, they seemed wary
of the Lent idea just as I had been at their age. Having been
asked to share what Lent meant to me, I pondered the idea
and tried to think about what would make sense, especially
when I struggled with it on my own.
Fortunately, God bailed me out and the Holy Spirit whispered
a simple, yet vast concept. It has to do with our heart
and preparing for the celebration of Jesus’ death and triumphant
resurrection. The concept was ‘room’. How much
room do we have in our hearts Where God is infinite and
knows no boundaries, we can only handle so much at a time.
The idea that God’s love fills us so that we spill over is
beautiful, but are we allowing more room in our hearts for
Christ, or is there reserved space for something or someone
else So often I’ve examined my heart and realised a person,
unforgiveness, past wounds, or activities have taken
over.
space we rented out to other things in life Are we in a position
to accept Jesus into our hearts, His home The analogy I used
with the children in Smoky Lake was marbles in our hands.
If my hands are filled with marbles, any other thing added on
won’t stay. We have to let go of the marbles to properly hold
onto God’s gifts, to accept them.Conversely, if we hang on to
God and the fullness of His love, then we make it harder for
other things to creep in. How do we crowd out the leftovers
Reconciliation, giving up things we usually hang on to (such as
chocolate, caffeine, and, in my case, giving up the need to be
right), devouring Scripture, cutting down on the activities we
collect so easily, and attending daily Mass. God offers so many
ways in which we can draw closer to Him.
It’s time to trade in the okay for the best, and do some Lenten
cleaning. God keep us and lead us.

Our God is a jealous God and He doesn’t want us just a
little; He wants our entire hearts, with nothing held back.
Our Father longs to fill us with love and to shower His mercies
and graces into our hearts. Above all, Jesus wants to
offer Himself as a sacrifice for our souls, which He loves.
Come Good Friday, He’ll do just that, and then He’ll conquer
death on Easter Sunday. Will we let Him do that Have

Careful What
You Joke
About
by Stephanie and Erika Koch
Growing up on a large farm in
Saskatchewan, being homeschooled,
and spending most of our days
together, our brother and we were best
friends, each of us being two years
apart. We would joke about never being
separated and how wherever one went,
the other two would surely follow.
The day finally came when we had to
part, both of us girls going off to
John Paul II Bible School, and our brother
staying on the farm with Mom and Dad.
Over the next three years God seemed to lead us apart, down each
of our own paths. Though it was difficult to get used to the changes
in our lives and in our family, we were able to grow and experience
what God had in store for all three of us.
In March 2006, we ended up talking about the idea of the three of
us being at the Bible School in Radway that fall, our brother as a
student, and we as staff members. We didn’t think that would
ever happen. Little did we know what God had up His sleeve. A
month later, the two girls ended up applying as staff at the Bible
School for the following year. A few months after that, our brother
applied as a student. Now we find ourselves, all three of us, here
at the John Paul II Bible School in Radway, Alberta.
Being here at the same time has its challenges and joys, yet we
can really see how God had to lead us apart for a time only to
bring us back together again.
In addition, this will be one of our last years together. One of us
will be heading off to Ontario next fall to join an order of religious
sisters and the paths that the Lord has for the other two may
lead in different directions.
We are blessed to be able to share this year together and still remember
the days when we used to joke, saying, “Where one went,
the other two would surely follow.”

Laughter, Tears
and Good Times
by Kathleen Boskill
When you hear the words joy, laughter, fun, truggles, tears,
(good and bad), humility, honouring, honoured trials,
growth, hope, peace, and strength, what do they represent
for you For me, these words represent my year so far at
the John Paul II Bible School. This year has been a year of
incredible growth, learning and good times. I love being
around people who desire to learn and grow in the Catholic
faith. This year has been filled with good jam sessions,
singing or playing praise and worship music, dancing in
the kitchen and snowball fights outside. It has also been a
year of great learning, awesome teachers, and spiritual
growth. I found myself at John Paul II because I wanted to
learn more about my Catholic faith and to really understand
what I believe. I grew up in a strong Catholic family,
who encouraged me in the faith and taught me about
the faith. I knew there was richness to the Catholic faith
that I had found nowhere else. Even though my parents
taught me about the faith, I knew there was still so much
out there to learn. I had a desire to learn and understand
my Catholic faith better. This year here at John Paul II has
definitely helped me with that.

cont’d from pg. 7
‘Laughter, Tears, and Good Times’
I have been blessed with amazing teachers that have a
wealth of knowledge and a desire to share that knowledge,
as well as their love of Christ.
Not only have I gained more head knowledge being
here, more importantly, I have grown in my personal
relationship with Christ. I am amazed at, and stand in
awe of the greatness and humility of Christ. I have come
to know a God who knows the desires of my heart and
desires to grow in a deeper relationship. I have also
come to know a God who will carry me and who reaches
out His hand to me when I am struggling or having a
rough day. I know a God who will never let me down.
Since growing in this personal relationship with Jesus, I have an inner peace, joy and excitement about life. I know
that this only comes from a relationship with Jesus. I am really excited and looking forward to the rest of my Bible
School year, the continual growth in learning about the Catholic faith, and my relationship with Jesus. God has really
blessed my time here so far. He has blessed me with a joy and excitement about following and trusting in Him and
seeing where it all takes me. God bless.

Meeting the Challenge
by Rose Ann Mack
There comes a time when you know that you are closing one
chapter of your life and starting a new one. When I graduated,
I knew it was one of those moments. Deciding to come
to the Bible School last year was one
of the best decisions I could have made.
However, after an intense year of
searching, growing and healing, I
thought my time was done at the Bible
School. To tell you the truth, when people
would ask me if I would ever come
back for a second year, I would always
say, “Never.” Big mistake! After fighting
with the idea of coming back for
quite a while, I eventually realised that
God was more stubborn that I was, and
I caved.
I don’t think I could have been completely
prepared for what God was about
to do in my life. My thoughts were that
this year was going to be no problem,
since I had done so much growing and
healing my year at Bible School.
I thought that God was finished with me. Man, was I wrong.
I think God was saying, “Yes, I got her here again; let’s do
some major heart surgery!”
“ I can all
things
through
Christ who
strengthens
me.”
(Phil. 4:13)
Over the past six months God has been taking me on a very
emotional roller coaster. Continual healing has brought me
into a relationship with Jesus that is more intimate than I
could have ever imagined. Slowly letting
go of my own desires and learning to trust
in God has been scary at times but very freeing.
Being a second year student / staff member
has been a definite experience and has
given me opportunities to minister to others.
One chance that was given to me was to do
Children’s Ministry for the parish in
Radway. Teaching young ones about their
faith and watching them grow has definitely
sparked an excitement in my heart. With this
excitement in my heart, I spoke to someone
who had been on NET Canada, an acronym
which stands for National Evangelization
Team. Hearing about this evangelization
team helped me realise how deep my desire
to evangelise was.
Therefore, I am applying to NET Canada.
If God allows it, I will be travelling around
Canada this fall, evangelizing to youth and speaking to them
about all the great things God has done in my life. It will
certainly be a challenge, but, “ I can all things through Christ
who strengthens me.” (Phil. 4:13)

Hope of the
future
By Harvey Clement
The Bible School has had many visitors from far and wide. This
week we have with us Father Casmir Muobike from Nigeria. He
is a member of the Sons of Mary Mother of Mercy (SMMM), an
order of priests.
Word of God. He wanted to share with others the love of God
that was poured into him, so that they may experience it and
so draw closer to God. He wants to minister the truth about
the life and teachings of Christ to all. The one thing that brings
him the greatest joy is celebrating the Eucharist.
We are truly blest to have such a devoted, spirit­filled priest
sent to our Diocese of St. Paul by the SMMM. The harvest is
plentiful but the laborers are few. Pray to the Lord of the
harvest that he may send forth laborers into the harvest. “Not
by choice, but out of obedience and the opportunity to serve
the Lord and His church” said Fr. Casmir. Welcome Fr. Casmir.
His call to the priesthood began at about
the age of 8 or 9 years old. He really enjoyed
being an altar server, and was very
close to the parish priest – who he spent a
lot of time with, learning and growing in
the faith. This kind of bond with the parish
priest sparked in him the desire to become
a priest. So Fr. Casmir pursued that
burning desire he had for the priesthood;
he attended junior seminary, then secondary
education, did his novitiate, studied philosophy
for four years, and then a year of
pastoral experience. Following that, he
studied four years of theology and in his
third year – December 21 st , 2002 – was
ordained a deacon. The next year – July 12 th , 2003 – he was
ordained a priest and is now coming to his fourth year of being a
priest.
There are many things that spurred Fr. Casmir on in
his vocation such as his faithfulness to
his prayer life and indulging
in the
After being in Canada for just a couple
weeks he feels that there are many
challenges that lie ahead apart from
the “challenges” that have already presented
themselves – cold weather, culture,
food, etc. “‘But I can do all things
through Christ who strengthens me.’
(Phil 4:13) I will adapt.”
It has really been a blessing having him
here with us.
He celebrates Mass with us, and is
very passionate about the Word of God
and the breaking of the bread. He has
heard our confessions, pouring out the
mercy and wisdom of God. He has prayed with us, laughed
with us, served us, been served by us – just embracing our
community life.
Harvey and Fr. Casmir
Of the Bible School, Fr. Casmir says that, “It gives me great
joy seeing young people grow together in faith. I can see the
cooperation and mutual acceptance. The spirit of daily Mass
here is needed to bring us as one. Seeing the devotion those
young people have in their prayer life, just walking in and
finding them in the chapel…and the joy they have in all
the activities they do. This is a very wonderful place and
the world needs more places like this to give all youth
direction in the spiritual life, because the world is going
in the opposite direction and dragging lots of the youth
with it. Teach them while they are young, with the
proper direction needed. That is why there are so few
vocations to the priesthood and religious life, because
of the lack of proper direction, many are lost. Both
the church and the state depends on the youth. The
young people are the hope of the future. It is the
call of the church and the state to bring out, assist,
help, build more places like this.”
