ecfern Presented by The Class of 1959 Saint John College of Cleveland Photography by .' Eugene Spiegel Halle Portrait Studio Printed by : Wm. J . Keller Inc. J6 .405150Kafe 0 1548 OJEVVL WMCLVL The Lectern staff of 1959 has chosen as its theme the apostolate of modern woman as envisioned by the Beloved Pontiff of blessed memory, Pius XII. No one has written more eloquently regarding woman,s place in Christian society. In Godis design, it is only in the role of motherhood, whether it be physical or spiritual, that woman finds the completion of her feminine personality. She fulfills 'her mission of bringing the world back to Christ through the apostolate of truth, love, and action. This threefold apostolate the Class of 1959 has crystallized in the form of a symbol. The foundation represents the knowledge through which the intellect discovers divine and human truth. From this rises the towerlike structure of truth which is the strength of her activities. Knowing God and His truths inspires the haming love which emanates from the heart and manifests itself in action. The dove represents the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit as He aids in the development of woman,s perfection and the accomplishment of her mission. Action is symbolized by the hand selfiessly extended in universal charity. The intertwining of the apostolate is seen in the simplicity of a line which leads woman directly to her Author and which keeps her activities within the realm of her dignity. jn eAlarmong Wth girlltuaz Peafitied thoman comes from God. It is to God that she owes her character- istics, her earthly task and the eternal destiny which will crown the loyalfulfillment of her mission. Her personal dignity and the respect due her are motivated primaril y by the need to safeguard that spiritual mis- sion, and, therefore, ultimately because of her proximity to God? -T he Three Apostolates of Modern Woman . The basic truth which underlies the apostolate is the divine origin of man. Womanhs nature and capacities incline her to be in harmony with spiritual realities. She can perceive and interpret them in an effort to advance and restore faith in God. Before beginning her apostolate, the student prepares herself by developing all phases of her being from the Christian perspective. With the recognition of her dignity as an image of God, woman can establish her true status and make the world aware of God,s presence. jn Union Wilt CAPMt THow can you save others, ifyou do not bring Christ to them? and how can you bring Christ to others if you do not possess Him yourselves? iAll are yoursf said the Apostle of the Gentiles, iand you are Chrisfsf i, 0 Cor. 3:22-29. eThe T hree Apostolates of M odern Woman The Christian woman must be guided by the conviction that in order to bring Christ to others she must first possess Him. She comes to know Christ in the gospels and liturgy and to be truly united with Him through the medium of Divine grace. The sacraments insure her continuing union with Christ and furnish the necessary zeal to carry out her Divine mission. In Christian marriage, the relationship of the woman to her husband is similar to that of Christ to His Church. The sister unites herself to Christ by her act of consecration. The single woman is selflessly dedicated to the performance of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy. The student becomes aware of the necessity of her own spiritual development in furthering her apostolate in whatever state of life she may choose to serve. jhrough the Mrgin Mary The union between Christ and woman has as its greatest charm and most perfect fulfillment in the person of the Virgin Mary. hAnd the word was made fiesh and dwelt among ust Uohn 1:14; It was a woman whom the Power of the Most High covered with His Shadow. It was a woman from whom the Second Person of the Holy Trinity took life and blood. Mary proves to what heights woman can rise, in and through Christ? eThe Three A postolates of Modern Woman Through the Virgin Mary, God assumed human nature. It is from Maryts role in the Redemption that woman derives the greatest pride in her sex. The student finds in Mary her model of Christian womanhood and the inspiration to Virtuous living in Christ and through her apostolate fosters greater devotion to Mary. This devotion makes possible a better understanding of her own dignity and a more intense union with Christ. WM thue- je Motivating jorce thiving charity inspires good works and is absolutely required for the fullness of faith. The hrst token of the success of your apostolate will be your possession in abundance of this treasure of the love of God, which penetrates human love, develops it, and renders it sublime? eThe Three Apostolates of Modern Woman i. i i .g i ,9 d: 3 3 a mam 5g. he Charity is the motivating force of the apostolate. The deep love of God overiiows so that we see Him in others. This love is communicated to others before the gospel is made known. Love of God penetrates the soul to render the apostle selhess. The apostle must know the spiritual, moral, cultural, and material needs of her neighbor. People must realize that the apostleis devotion for others is inspired by divine love, and is not done for personal gain or social approval. It is in this love of God and our neighbor that the perfection of woman is attained. jn the gruice ihT he Christian educator cannot be satis- fied with letting nature do its work, or simply favoring it, as if he were a farmer dealing with the fruits of the earth. He, like the grace of God, with which he wants to be nothing other than the cooperator, corrects and elevates at one and the same time. He fights against the lower inclinations and works to make the higher ones develop? w-Ada'ress to Italian Catholic Union of Secondary School T eachers. The teacher aids in the intellectual and spiritual development of each child by her word and by her example. The pupil finds in her the essence of Christian womanhood demonstrated. The teacher utilizes man,s inclination toward good and strives for the perfection of the individual student. As a student, the future teacher learns to recognize the value of the individual as the possessor of the life-giving principle, the soul.

Each day is a means of sanctification for the nurse. She radiates to her patient the warmth of supernatural charity. The student learns that hers is a sacred ministry. She develops herself in all phases of her being in order that she may care for the whole patient . . . body, mind, and spirit. Again, the apostle keeps in mind her role as a woman. The sensitiveness of her person can help her to see the patient in the perspective of the family of mankind transcending the human limitations of personality, and differences of race, religion, and creed. 13th, ale ediadicaf guidance Vt is self-evident that the apostolate 0f the laity is subordinate to the ecclesiastical hierarchy; for the hierarchy is of divine institution. The apostolate, then, cannot be independent with regard to it? e-The Lay Apostolate For direction and guidance woman looks to the Church. It is from the head of the Church, Christ, through the ecclesiastical hierarchy that we receive the perfection of the members of the Mystical Body. Saint John College is unique in its location on Cathedral Square which it shares with Saint J ohn Cathedral and the Chancery Building of the Diocese of Cleveland. These buildings exemplify the varied services which Holy Mother the Church provides for her members. MOST REV. EDWARD F. HOBAN, S.T.D., PH.D., LL.D.

Students learn about children and classroom precedures through a variety of observations. An Introduction to Education and a Child Growth and De- velopment course under Miss Uprichard introduce the student to the child, the classroom, and the teaching and learning process. Through September Experience the student shares with the children the beginnings of a new school year. Oz Jdcfion Blocks of teaching meth- ods in the language arts and content subjects help the student of primary educa- tion to correlate teaching techniques on the profes- sional level and to integrate theory with practice in the classroom. A student teaches phonics under the direction of Sister Mary Electa. Sister Mary Concepta explains a procedure in teaching primary reading. A first grade science lesson can be a very exciting experience especially under the guidance of Miss Sullivan. Second graders review. with Miss Steigerwald the sacrament of Holy Eucharist. Blocks of teaching methods in the language arts and content subjects bring to the student concentrating in the teaching of the intermediate and upper grades :1 knowl- edge of sound teaching methods and techniques and opportunities to use them in classroom situations. Sister Immaculata shows a chart of the lan- guage skills included in a language arts program of the elementary school, and discusses with a student a recent book designed to appeal to the young reader. Sister Celine proves that measuring the frequency of vibrations can be an interesting experience for college students as well as for their future pupils. 46 Student teaching brings many happy experiences with children. Miss Rusyniak directs her fifth grade class in playing instruments and singing a favorite song. A very important aspect of student teaching is the daily conference with the supervising teacher. In arithmetic flashcard drill, pupils glance at their teacher to make sure that the responses they give to Miss Uxa are correct. 47 thnlightened faith makes you see Jesus Christ once again in each invalid, teaching you to lavish on him something greater and better than mere professional assistance: hthe warmth of supernatural charity, which is, without doubt, the first and best of hNursing . . .
