CHURCH OBSERVES
 SUNDAY FOR SICK
Pentecost Custom lnaugu- rated 10 Years Ago; Ap-
 peal Successful

Pentecost Sunday again brings before the faithful of the Hartford diocese the cause of Mission Sun- day of the Sick. All who are sick or suffering throughout the state are urged to become active partici- pants in the great mission aposto- late of the church by offering up their tribulation for the success of mission work.
 The custom of designating Pentecost Sunday as Mission Sun. day of the Sick was inaugurated ten years ago.
 Through the diocesan Society for the Propagation of the Faith, di- rected by the Rev. Joseph M. Grif- fin, literature on Mission Sunday of the Sick has been sent to Con. necticut hospitals and institutions.
 His excellency, Most .Rev. Rich- ard J. Cushing. auxiliary bishop of Boston, in his leafiet on the sub- ject of Wasted Pain" says:
 "There is nothing more tragic In all the world today than wasted pain. Think how much suffering there is in hospitals, and among the poor and the bereaved. Think of how much of that suffering goes to waste! Yet life should not be a monotonouS round of daily duties Sanctify every second of the day glorify every practice of life, con. Secrate every pain, drink few drops of the bitterness that over- flowed the Chalice of dethsemane be c cooperator with Christ in the redemption of the human race."
 Then years ago, when the idea of enlisting the aid of the sick for the furtherance of the mission apostolate was first launched, doubt was expressed as to the feaS- ibility of such plan.
 That appeal, however, has brought an abundant response dur ing the intervening years. Now as we prepare to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the observance of Mission Sunday of the Sick we beg every one of our readers to cos operate In making this a banner year. If there are no sick in your immediate family you undoubtedly know some among your friends and acquaintances. Ask these to unite their sufferings with those of the Cruclfed Saviour on the Feast of Pentecost, June lst. in order that the Kingdom of Christ may extend throughout the world.

Special Collection
 Tomorrow For Pope
His Holiness Not Receiving Help From Every Nation
 Today; Bishop Pleas for Generous Offering

A special collection for His Holi- ness, Pope Plus XII, will be taken up at all Catholic churches of the city tomorrow.
 The Bishops proclamation re- garding Pentecost Sunday follows: Dear Father:
 Pentecost is the Feast of the Holy Ghost, the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity. He abides with the Church, guides and protects Her. He was promised to Her by our Divine Saviour to be with Her all days to the end of time. We can almost point to visible proof of His presence in the history of the Church. He is our comfort, consolation and joy. Today we ap- peal to His Divine Presence and call forth His Spirit of love and truth on a disturbed world.
 We pray Him in particular to strengthen and comfort our Holy Father, the gloriously reigning Pope Plus XII. He is 8 bright light in dark and threatening world. We listen to his voice and read his words as he appeals to the Father of Mercles to bring peace to the na- tiOns of the world. His heart is torn by the fratricidal war, his children bearing arms against one another.
 Hitherto, the Pope was able to receive help from many nations. Today, he is we'll nigh restricted to what we shall send him from our beloved land. He makes every ef- fort to lessen the frightfulness of war. His heart and his hand are softening the rigors of prison life and his every effort is to protect women, little children and the el- william population. It as our duty to Rlve him All khe help we can end

make him feel happy in the realiza- ton of our sympathy, prayers and financial help.
 Pentecost Sunday is a most fit- ting day to pray for His Holiness and to give generously to the cole lection for him. I urge all the mem. bers of my flock to make their of- fering to the Holy Father generous and heartfelt.
 This collection will be taken up in all the parishes of the Diocese Pentecost Sunday, June 1st.
 Invoking the blessing of God and the abiding Presence of the Holy Ghost among you, am
 Sincerely yours in Christ,
