EASTERN LINK The Catenian Association Strengthening family life through friendship and faith PROVINCE 21<br />

One Heart Many Voices Catenian Help Continued…<br />

Our assistance was recognised not only by the organisers but also by many <strong>of</strong> the delegates who<br />

indicated their sincere appreciation to us on many occasions. As with the Proclaim <strong>20</strong>12 Conference<br />

we were again clearly recognisable by our signature blue polo shirts. We also had our Catenian<br />

banner on display and received publicity in the conference booklet. In addition each delegate<br />

received one <strong>of</strong> our pamphlets in their conference pack. We were <strong>of</strong>ten asked who exactly we were<br />

and had plenty <strong>of</strong> opportunity to spread the word about Catenianism among people who showed a<br />

real interest in us.<br />

There were many excellent presentations at the conference and these can be accessed through the<br />

conference website at www.mohmv.com.au. The keynote speaker was Fr Steve Bevans from<br />

Chicago and his presentation was particularly thought provoking.<br />

Finally…<br />

The devotedness John Tweedie has shown to the brotherhood <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Catenians</strong> is a fine example <strong>of</strong><br />

what it means to be a leader. John not only made sure that there were enough brothers at cover all<br />

the days <strong>of</strong> the conference, he also made sure that all the positions were filled each day. Not<br />

satisfied with “she’ll be right on the day” every session’s need was covered. John leading by<br />

example also stood at doors, walked up and down the stairs (8 flights) numerous times to ensure<br />

that everything went smoothly.<br />

Why does this represent true brotherly love; because John was not seeking glory for himself but for<br />

God first and then the brotherhood in which we belong. This conference has among the delegates<br />

the clergy that can be influential in opening new areas to the <strong>Catenians</strong>. This has been a fine<br />

example <strong>of</strong> what the brotherhood can do and all brothers should feel that they are capable <strong>of</strong> doing<br />

the same.<br />
