Clergy’: Address

To the Reverend John A. MacDon- aid, Pastor of St. Patrick's Church, Grand River.

Reverend and Dear Father:-

In the midst of the Chorus oi Congratulations offered you on the Fiftieth Anniversary in the Priest- hood, it is befitting that a. word be spoken 0n behalf of your Confreres. They can more keenly ‘Pllfefiiatfi what such a period of ministry means, more especially if they have passed that mark themselves, or are approaching it.

Twenty-five ' years ago. some amons us were present to applaud your achievements up to that date. and to offer you a sincere wish that God might give you another twenty- five years. He did, and the years that intervened were not less fruit- ful than the former ones. Endowed as you were with excellent qualities, both physical and intellectual, the heritage of your Highland Parents. you were a giant among men. Im- bued with piety as well, you, from an early age, looked to the Priest- hood as your field of labor. Your ordination is summed up in terse words by the historian of the day: "The early days of 1885, saw the ordination of Reverend John A. MacDonald. On the 4th of January he was ordained by the Archbishop of Quebec."

Bonn in St. Andrew's Parish, you received your education at St. Dun- stan's College and Quebec Semin- ary. After ordination you were at- tached to the Cathedral Staff for a short time, and then appointed pro- fessor of St. Dunstanh. You touch- ed on pioneer days, but you left the imprint of solidity in studies to that Institution. The students of fifty years ago are becoming sparse, but the few of us who remain wish to tell you, after that lapse of time, how we valued your kindly manner and fervent enthusiasm in both

cese, Miscouche. Wellington was also attached to it as a mission. There you ministered to Acadians. Scotch. and Irish and endeared yourself to all. In the material administration, let the beautiful church, with its "turrets twain", and the Rectory built during your time, speak of your zeal. Truly you set a pace which has made your successors step quickly ever since. Mention might be made also of the fact, that through your tact and diplomacy, the Convent was approved of as a public school, thc first in the Pro- vince.

In 1904, you were transferred to Grand River, but Wellington re-

of mained under your charge. The love

and respect with which you are cherished in those Parishes speak eloquently of your never-flagging real. But above a.ll, your interest and care for the welfare of the Ind- ian Children bespeak the true Mis- sionary Spirit. You were appointed by Government as Indian lommis- sioner for this Province, a truly wise appointment, for every dollar con-

Indians, under your administration, reached its mark.

Nowadays we speak much of Ca- tholic Action. 1 think it is only a new name for what has sver been the objective of the Catholic Pastor, and you have been putting it into practice since the first clays of your ministry. You displayed zeal for religious instruction; but you were not less active for secular, as well as for those social features which bring forth the best qualities of hu- ma-n nature. - Exciting in these details of you life, we rejoice for another reason: that after a serious illness and op- eration, you are with us today in robust health. May it long con- tlnuel In conclusion, we offer you this small gift as a more tangible proof of our esteem.

Reverend Father:-

On this, the fiftieth armfvorsary of your ordination to the Holy Priesthood, we take the opportunity of expressing to you our sincere con- gratulations and good wishes. We have gathered together today in happy memory of that glorious ev- ent a half century ago, when you offered up to your Divine Lord your services in His great army. We can- not but imagine the great ‘joy that must be yours today as you go back in memory to that first occasion when your mind, illuminated by faith. saw your Redeemer and God quicken in life beneath your" finger tips at the words, "This Is My Body"—'“I‘his Is My Blood." Your heart must overflow at the recollec- tion of the blessed memories of the glorious event. An event that could not but inspire you with fervent de- sire to do, to think, and be, all that the Master commands of those upon whose souls I-Ie engraved the indel- ible character of His eternal priest- hood. And even if all the aspira- tions of that day have not been ful- filled, still the memory of those in- tervening years of joy and sorrow, of hope and fear, must be hallowed by the realization, that at the com- pletion of fifty years cf service you have left behind an example; that cannot fail to be a. source of inspir- ation to all those with whom you have been associated.

To the parishioners of Grand River you will always stand as a great man. and an ideal priest, whose cheery disposition and unfail- ing sympathy have helped us over the difficult places in the road of life, and‘ whose example of sacrifice and service will ever remain a bea- con light, that will help in no small way, to guide us to that teemal home, to the tank of which you have devoted so many years of your life.

Ever since the day that you first came among us, we have been bound to you by a golden chain of love, which has grown stronger as the years passed, and today, on your golden jubilee, our hearts overflow with gratitude to God for granting us the privilege of being your spec- ial care for so many years.

We feel that empty words and tokens are inadequate to express our feelings on this occasion, but we ask you to accept this small 11ft as a. token of the esteem in which you are

River, and we pray that that God to Whom you have devoted fifty years of loyal service, will reward you in the way that He knows best, for the sacrifices which you have made in our behalf.

Signed on behalf of the parlan- ioners of Grand River. Trustees, Joseph R. Maclntyre, John S. Mac- Kinnon and Frank Gillis.

Wellington

Dear Father John:- g,

When St. Peter beheld our Lord's transfiguration, ho said, "Lord! 1t is good for us to be here." It is likewise good for us to be here to- day too on this auspicious occasion, as representatives of Wellington Parish, to unite with so many oth- ers i.n honouring you, our once es- teemed pastor.

For many years you labored among us as our pastor and friend. In the fulfillment of your priestly duties towards us, you were as st. Paul says, “Constant in season and out of season." You have helped us much along the way of life, advis- ing us in our difficulties, and com- forting and encouraging us in our trials. “To live is to forget." runs the old adage. But how can we ever forget the many sacrifices you made in our behalf? We remember the times, too numerous to mention, you dmvemlles and hard ones too, to minister to our living, comfort our sick and dying and to bury our dud. Such things are not forgotten, and never can be by those for whom you

Dear Rev. Father:-

Golden Jubilee, we feel that we can not let the occasion pass without some little mark of commendation for the faithful manner 1n which you have ministered to us in the days that are past. the few feeble remarks that we may make can never compensate you for the many years of faithful service you have given us, a service, Dear Father, that we are fully aware was so freely and cheerfully given, al- though often, rendered under most severe hardship to yourself.

ted position, you have had to brave the elements in order to give us the benefits of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. We have been brought to look upon you, Dear Father, not only as our Spiritual Father, but as our Material Father as well, for in all our needs you were an ever present aid in us and none ever left your presence who had a reasonable re- quest withour your assistance.
