- Notes
- "It is sad to read about the demise of a diocesan newspaper ['Youth ministry newspaper "suspended"', Jan. 2012, p. 1]. The suspension of the diocese of Ontario's 'Dialogue' is nothing short of tragic. How will members of the diocese keep in touch ? How will the bishop communicate with his charges ? Mass mailings are expensive. Not only have they cut off the arm of communication, but also the feet of the future in vastly reducing outreach to youth. Without a viable means of keeping in touch, communities fall apart. The Internet is not quite universal enough yet to take the place of print media. Not everyone is computer-literate or has access to electronic media. The hierarchy appears to be closing its hands around the neck of a body already experiencing breathing difficulties. No one can say for certain where the Spirit will blow, but a cool breeze refreshes everyone". [Text of entire article.]
