The public is in vite.!. as a "de-Christianized" coun try whichcan be won back to the church only through earnest, imaginative mission ary efforts. French bishops are not in dulging in over statement when they call modern France a "mission field." Al though 94 per cent of the people are baptized Catholics, surveys indicate that only about 20 per cent actually practice the faith. And this 20 per cept is drawn primari ly from the rural areas of the provinces and from the upper economic groups of the cities.

There is one parish which has not re corded a baptism, marriage or burial for 20 years. Many historical factors have contributed to the estrange ment of the French masses from the church. For cen turies before the French revo lution, the church was closely identified with the privileged classes. The revolution of 1789 was as much a revolt against the church itself as against the monarchy which it had supported. Although anti-clerical ism, in the sense of active hostility toward the church, has de clined markedly in recent years, many Frenchmen still regard the church as a bul wark of political conserva tism. This is a major handi cap in a country where po litical radicalism is strongly entrenched in the working classes. Another basic factor is that religion in France has tended to degenerate into formal ob servances as one Jesuit scholar put it, "There was more superstition than faith" - and hence was particularly vulnerable to attack by the militant atheists of the 18th century "age of reason." Church leaders know that this heritage of bitterness and distrust cannot be quickly overcome. They have em barked, with humility and de termination, on a long-range effort to show skeptical Frenchmen that Christianity is not an empty ritual nor a tool of the vested interests. One project on which much progress has already been achieved is the revitalization of worship. Liturgical reforms have made the celebration of mass more meaningful to French Catholics. There is heavy emphasis on the con gregation's duty to participate rather than sit as passive spectators. Literature Has Helped A massive output of schol arly literature, by both clergy men and laymen, has helped to restore religion to a posi tion of intellectual respecta bility. In fact, the most ob vious signs of religious revival in France today are among the intellectuals, particularly the students and faculty of great universities like the Sor bonne. t The church is also living down its reputation as a cita del of political atasd-pattism. To a degree that alarms many conservative Catholics, bish ops and priests are taking out spoken, liberal stands on such issues as the Algerian war and the socialization of in dustry. The hardest task is regain ing the confidence of the working, classes. The church has concluded that it will ac complish little by preaching to the workers, or urging them to come to mass. The first step is to send some dedicated Christians to live and work among the poor, to share their worries and con cerns, and give them a living example of Christian faith in action. 'Worker-Priest Movement This was the idea behind the "worker - priest" move ment in which young priests exchanged their clerical cos tumes for overalls and took jobs in factories. The Vatican placed restrictions on this movement in 1955 after re ports indicated that some of the worker - priests were en tering into their role so en thusiastically that they were getting infected with Com munist doctrines. But about 100 worker-priests are still in Paris factories, limiting their work to three hours a day to conform to Vatican rules. And Cardinal Feltim went to Rome last month, reportedly to ask Pope John XXIII for permis sion to expand the movement. , At Pontigny, about 75 miles southeast of Paris, Cardinal Lienart has set up a new sem inary to give special training to priests to work among un believers and lapsed Cath olics. This project, called the "Mission of France," now has some 300 priests at work in 80 communities of France, and 82 more in training. Laymen Being Drafted Christian laymen are also being drafted into missionary effort, not to preach but to demonstrate through their daily work the emphasis which their faith places on service to mankind. For ex ample, there is one organiza tion called Catholic Workers Action in which membership is limited to those who are "engaged in helping their brothers." Significantly, hold ing office in a trade union is listed as one good way of serving fellow man. Is all of this activity achieving any results? Car dinal Lienart's answer is that "Before the harvest can be reaped, the ground must be cleared and the seeds plant ed." "This has been done," says the Cardinal, "and the work is beginning to bear fruit." i MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or.
