In particular: 1. I have already chosen the collaborators that I will personally present to you and whom You will engage according to the specific tasks: they are experts in the various subjects and teachers of the various Roman Pontifical Universities. 2. My task will be very easy and attainable because I have as my close friends Cardinal LERCARO and the same Paul VI who is giving me the maximum confidence in everything, so he will never suspect my relations with You. I will do my best for the priest (… unreadable) to become Pontifical Master of Ceremonies: then all will be easier. 3. The Desacralization will have to proceed by steps: so I am beg - ging you to be understanding with me. We need to introduce Protestant and Orthodox elements in the Catholic liturgy with the excuse of Ecumenism: then the road is open to everything. All this takes time, but in ten years we will succeed. While I repeat my thanks, I assure you that I am already hard at work and soon I will come to see you. Hugs from Your Brother (signed: “Buan”) TO THE GRAND MASTER Giustiniani Palace (by hand) Letter of April 6, 1967 Grand Master, Dear Councilors, As I had promised, the road to Desacralization has now been opened with the official publication of the Instruction of the Sa - cred Music of March 5 U.S. As you could have seen, it is a very deliberate, ambiguous and de - vious document. Even though, in fact, certain traditional princi - ples are reaffirmed, virtually in passing and so as not to attract at - tention, I fought to highlight some points: 1. The prominent part of the people; 2. The vernacular language, before the official language; 3. The role of women, who may also form a Schola Canto - rum; 4. The various degrees of participation, for which it breaks up the preceding system, until no one can sing or partici - pate any more… 5. Freedom for the various kinds of composition and instru - ments. More could have been done but, as I told you verbally, there is the serious difficulty of the Congregation of Rites, whose secretary is my arch enemy: Antonelli. You should, through our Brothers Assistants at the Throne, to abolish that Con - gregation and put me in place of Antonelli. But of this, we will discuss verbally.

Beatification date: September 17, 2006 by Pope Benedict XVI SHORT BIOGRAPHY Born December 27, 1877 in Cividate Camuno, Brescia, Italy. Eldest of eight children, the son of Eugenio, an accountant, and Domenica Malaguzzi, a teacher. Nephew and god-son of Blessed Giuseppe Tovini. Attended elementary school in Breno, Italy, and was a good student. Moved in with Blessed Giuseppe in Brescia, Italy at age nine to continue his studies. He made his First Communion on November 14, 1886. Went to school in Romano Lombardia, Italy in 1889. Mose began to feel a call to the priesthood, but his father opposed it, and he put off the training. Attended high school in Celana, Bergamo, Italy, but had trouble with city life, and was abused by his fellow students. He returned home, and this time his father agreed with Mose's call to the priesthood. The boy moved back in with his uncle Giuseppe, and studied at the seminary in Brescia. Upon finishing the minor seminary, during which his uncle had died, Mose took off from school and joined the army. His personal piety even impressed his fellow soldiers. He reached the rank of sergeant, was discharged on October 31, 1898, returned home, and resumed his studies for the priesthood. Ordained in Brescia on June 9, 1900 at age 22. Assigned as chaplain of Astrio, Italy. He was soon sent to Rome, Italy to continue his studies, and by 1904 had degrees in mathematics, philosophy, and theology.

Mostrom All rights reserved 2018 iii ABSTRACT YVES CONGAR’S THEOLOGY OF LAITY AND MINISTRIES AND ITS THEOLOGICAL RECEPTION IN THE UNITED STATES Name: Mostrom, Alan D. University of Dayton Advisor: William L. Portier, Ph.D. Yves Congar’s theology of the laity and ministries is unified on the basis of his adaptation of Christ’s triplex munera to the laity and his specification of ministry as one aspect of the laity’s participation in Christ’s triplex munera. The seminal insight of Congar’s adaptation of the triplex munera is illumined by situating his work within his historical and ecclesiological context. The U.S. reception of Congar’s work on the laity and ministries, however, evinces that Congar’s principle insight has received a mixed reception by Catholic theologians in the United States due to their own historical context as well as their specific constructive theological concerns over the laity’s secularity, or the priority given to lay ministry over the notion of a laity.

  • ECHO of MARY Queen of Peace 142
    ECHO ECHO OF MARY Queen of peace 142 November-December 1998 - Info Our Lady's message of 25 Sept. 1998: Dear Children, I invite you today to become my witnesses by living the faith of your fathers. My Children, you seek signs and messages and do not see that God, with the rising of the sun each morning, calls you to convert and to return to the path of truth and salvation. You talk much, my Children, but you work little for your conversion. Therefore, convert and begin to live my messages; not with words, but with your lives. Then my Children, you will have the strength to decide for true conversion of the heart. Thank you for responding to my call. Be my Witnesses, and work at Conversion of Heart Our Lady once again speaks of living the faith, and of conversion of heart. Her plea to live the messages is mixed with a reproach for the way we talk too much of and live too little our faith. The message contains an unusual call to become Her witnesses of the faith. The way to do this is to live the faith of our fathers. Faith is accepting with all one's heart and life those promises of the invisible God Who revealed Himself in the person of Jesus Christ. Mary lived in the faith of the fathers, making it Her own. Let us look at Abraham's faith. He had no doubts when he offered in sacrifice his son of the promise, thinking that God is able to raise man even from the dead (cf.

  • The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler
    The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler Cardinal Alfons Stickler, retired prefect of the Vatican Archives and Library, is normally reticent. Not so during his trip to the New York area in May [1995]. Speaking at a conference co-sponsored by Fr. John Perricon's ChistiFideles and Howard Walsh's Keep the Faith, the Cardinal scored Catholics within the fold who have undermined the Church—and in the final third of his speech made clear his view that the "Mass of the post-Conciliar liturgical commission" was a betrayal of the Council fathers. The robust 84-year-old Austrian scholar, a Salesian who served as peritus to four Vatican II commissions (including Liturgy), will celebrate his 60th anniversary as a priest in 1997. Among his many achievements: The Case for Clerical Celibacy (Ignatius Press), which documents that the celibate priesthood was mandated from the earliest days of the Church. Cardinal Stickler lives at the Vatican. The Tridentine Mass means the rite of the Mass which was fixed by Pope Pius V at the request of the Council of Trent and promulgated on December 5, 1570. This Missal contains the old Roman rite, from which various additions and alterations were removed. When it was promulgated, other rites were retained that had existed for at least 200 years. Therefore, is more correct to call this Missal the liturgy of Pope Pius V. Faith and Liturgy From the very beginning of the Church, faith and liturgy have been intimately connected. A clear proof of this can be found in the Council of Trent itself.

  • The Washing of the Feet During the Evening Mass on Thursday of the Lord’S Supper ______
    The Washing of the Feet during the Evening Mass on Thursday of the Lord’s Supper _______________________________________________________________ On the authority of Pope Francis, the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments [CDWDS] issued a Decree and a Commentary on 6 January 2016 changing the rubric for the Washing of the Feet during the Evening Mass on Thursday of the Lord’s Supper. Here is the English rubric with the edits: The men who have been chosen are Those who have been chosen from amongst the people of God are led by the ministers to seats prepared in a suitable place. Then the Priest (removing the chasuble if necessary) goes to each one, and, with the help of the ministers, pours water over each one’s feet and then dries them. By the action of the Apostolic See, those chosen for the foot washing is open to all members of the People of God – boys and girls, women and men. Those chosen for the foot washing reflect all who make up the People of God, the disciples of the Lord. In the account of the Last Supper in the Gospel of John, the Good News proclaimed during the Holy Thursday Evening Mass, Jesus washes the feet of an unspecified number of disciples. Just as the “beloved disciple” is nameless so that it may be, in fact, every hearer who is the beloved one, the “disciples” are all of us as well. This mandatum , this love command to be of service, to be servants is given to each one of the baptized.
