Pastoral Message Dear St. Mary Parishioners & Visitors, Often I receive questions regarding the difference between diocesan and religious order priests. Perhaps the easiest explanation has to do with the vows and personal call of each priest. A diocesan priest takes his vows to the diocesan Bishop; he takes the vows of obedience and celibacy. A Religious Order priest takes his vows to his Religious Superior; he takes the vows of obedience, celibacy and poverty. As a teen -ager, I felt a call to the priesthood and to teaching. The Norbertines, who taught me in high school, offered me the possibility of fulfilling both parts of my calling. Over these next few months, I hope to share with you some of the charism of the Norbertine Order. Our Founder, St. Norbert, was born at Xanten on the Dutch -German border in 1080. He grew up in wealth and enjoyed a plentiful life in his early manhood. When Norbert was 20, his wit & charm brought him the attention of the Archbishop of Cologne. Norbert eventually became chaplain to the Roman Emperor. In 1115, Norbert underwent a conversion experience, often described similar to that of St. Paul. Eventually, Norbert settled in the valley of Premontre, France. On Christmas, 1120, the Bishop of Laon (France) vested Norbert and his 40 followers in the white habit of canons regular. (Canons are groups of priests who serve a cathedral or church. Canons Regular live in religious communities under common rules & vows.) The official title for the Norbertines is “Premonstratensian Order.” Norbert’s community at Premontre was an innovation, since it was the first to combine active parish ministry with monastic life. In 1123, Norbert battled a heresy that questioned the validity of the sacraments, especially the Eucharist. Norbert restored orthodoxy and eventually was appointed Archbishop of Magdeburg (Germany) where he died on June 6, 1134. We Norbertines continue to live together in community while ministering to the local people. Rather than the word ‘monastery’, we live in an Abbey. We elect our religious superior, an Abbot, to whom we vow obedience. The Abbey in De Pere is an outgrowth of Berne Abbey, Holland. Originally, we came to the Green Bay diocese at the invitation of the Bishop in 1893 to serve immigrants in the Peninsula. Shortly after, tutoring and schooling developed which resulted in sponsorship of Catholic high schools and St. Norbert College. Through out, Norbertines continued to serve in parishes. There are 52 members of St. Norbert Abbey. Of this number, small groups live in Chicago & Jackson, Mississippi. Two Abbeys have grown from ours; 1 outside Philadelphia & 1 in Albuquerque, NM. You can learn more about us at: norbertines.org (St. Norbert Abbey) & premontre.org (international). I am so happy to be with you. In Christ, through Mary, Fr. Dane Fr. Dane Radecki, O. Praem.

  • The Ruusbroec Institute and Its Library Establishment
    The Ruusbroec Institute and its library FRANS HENDRICKX Establishment The Ruusbroec Institute Library developed alongside the vision of its founders, led by Father Stracke († 1970), whose aim was to study the history of spirituality in the Low Countries. When Stracke received his doctorate in Germanic Philology from Leuven in 1903-1904 with a thesis on the lives of Christina of Sint-Truiden and Lutgardis of Tongeren, his mentor Louis Scharpé († 1935) encouraged him in his ambition to establish the Bibliotheca Ascetica Patrum Societaties Jesu Provinciae Flandrensis . This central library of the Order would provide the necessary resources and study materials for conducting research into the spirituality of the Jesuit Society in the Low Countries between the Counter Reformation and the eighteenth century. This was because the Bibliographie de la Compagnie de Jésus , assembled in twelve successive parts by Augustin and Alois De Backer († 1873 and 1883 respectively) and Carlos Sommervogel († 1902), was deemed to be in need of expansion and improvement with regard to the Jesuit writers of both the southern and northern Low Countries. However, since ascetic and mystical writings had often been overlooked and treated disparagingly in Dutch literary history books, and in light of the emancipation of Arm Vlaanderen (Poor Flanders) – Stracke's remarkable speech to the Katholieke Vlaamsche Wacht in Borgerhout on 13 November 1913 – the original plan, which was never actually realized, gradually transformed into a more general exploration of the Low Countries' spiritual history, beginning in the Middle Ages. Three Jesuits, all Germanics graduates of the Leuven Alma Mater – Desideer A. Stracke († 1970), Jozef Van Mierlo († 1958) and Leonce Reypens († 1972) – were the founding scholars of a new working community formed in 1925.

  • Glossary of Catholic and Norbertine Terms from Abbey to Xanten a Glossary of Catholic and Norbertine Terms
    From Abbey to Xanten A Glossary of Catholic and Norbertine Terms From Abbey to Xanten A Glossary of Catholic and Norbertine Terms As part of our mission at St. Norbert College, we value the importance of communio, a centuries-old charism of the Order of Premonstratensians (more commonly known as the Norbertines). Communio is characterized by mutual esteem, trust, sincerity, faith and responsibility, and is lived through open dialogue, communication, consultation and collaboration. In order for everyone to effectively engage in this ongoing dialogue, it is important that we share some of the same vocabulary and understand the concepts that shape our values as an institution. Because the college community is composed of people from diverse faith traditions and spiritual perspectives, this glossary explains a number of terms and concepts from the Catholic and Norbertine traditions with which some may not be familiar. We offer it as a guide to help people avoid those awkward moments one can experience when entering a new community – a place where people can sometimes appear to be speaking in code. While the terms in this modest pamphlet are important, the definitions are limited and are best considered general indications of the meaning of the terms rather than a complete scholarly treatment. We hope you find this useful. If there are other terms or concepts you would like to learn more about that are not covered in this guide, please feel free to contact the associate vice president for mission & student affairs at 920-403-3014 or [email protected]. In the spirit of communio, The Staff of Mission & Student Affairs When a word in a definition appears in bold type, it indicates that the word is defined elsewhere in the glossary.

  • St. Joseph Catholic Parish, Champion, Wisconsin
    St. Joseph Catholic Parish, Champion, Wisconsin 1862 – 2012 1 History of St. Joseph Catholic Parish, Champion In the 1850’s, times were very hard in the Country of Belgium. Over population had resulted in farms becoming smaller. The crops were suffering a reduction because of drought and diseases, including a severe potato blight (which lasted many years). Many farmers didn’t own their farmland, but depended on landlords for their income. Some of the workers depended on successful crops for their food, because for their labors they would receive a certain amount of a harvest. The peasants could not gain a decent living from the production of their land alone. So many of them found additional sources of income in rural industries such as distilling, brewing, sugar milling. Some home activities were cutlery, straw plaiting, and nail making. There was famine and epidemics of cholera and typhus, which caused many deaths. Some of the rural work force preferred to search elsewhere for more prosperous conditions. It is in this way immigration to the United States constituted a last hope. After Wisconsin became a state in 1848, the state government initiated a campaign to attract settlers. In 1851 a handbook called “The Emigrant’s Handbook and Guide to Wisconsin”, was circulated in Belgium. The campaign was advertised in European papers and urged people to move to Wisconsin, where land was cheap, along with freedom and opportunity. The major time period for Belgian Immigration was in 1855 and 1856, although many others came in later years. On May 18, 1853 the first Belgian Immigrants from Grez-Doiceau, in the province of Brabant, estimated at being 81 individuals, sailed from their homeland, heading toward the United States.
