  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • Romero: Person and His Charisma with the Pontiffs
    260914: Julian Filochowski Romero: Person and His Charisma with the Pontiffs. It is my intuition that ‘the annunciation’ is just around the corner; that is an announcement from Rome - not from the Angel Gabriel, but from the Cardinal ‘Angel’ (Angelo) Amato, Head of the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints – an announcement that our beloved Servant of God, Oscar Romero, will be raised to the altars during 2015. Oremus! Archbishop Romero is not only the most famous Salvadoran of our times, but also the most loved and simultaneously the most hated. Nevertheless it seems entirely fitting to me to adapt the words from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, “he was the noblest Salvadoran of them all”. Indeed today he is recognised as such, repeatedly acclaimed by President Funes as the ‘spiritual guide of the nation’ - with monuments and memorials in almost every town and village in El Salvador. He has been described as a national treasure. As a holy prophet and martyr, Oscar Romero is, I would suggest, a precious diamond, who adds a special redemptive lustre to the universal Church of the 20th century. For over 30 years, however, Archbishop Romero’s detractors inside the Church have tried to paint a picture of him as a rather cheap fake diamond - naïve, vain, manipulated, doctrinally heterodox and politically extreme. (In truth they feared Romero’s canonisation might be interpreted as the canonisation of liberation theology.) And they are still not finished - even though their curial leader, the Colombian Cardinal Alfonso Lopez Trujillo, has now gone to that great dicastery in the sky, with God.

    Archbishop with an Attitude Oscar Romerds Sentir con la Iglesia Douglas Marcouiller, S.J. BX3701 S88x Studies in the spirituality of Jesuits. Issue: v.35:no.3(2003:May) Arrival Date: 05/22/2003 O'Neill Periodicals 35/3 • MAY 2003 THE SEMINAR ON JESUIT SPIRITUALITY The Seminar is composed of a number of Jesuits appointed from their provinces in the United States. It concerns itself with topics pertaining to the spiritual doctrine and practice of Jesuits, especially United States Jesuits, and communicates the results to the members of the provinces through its publication, STUDIES IN THE SPIRITUALITY OF JESUITS. This is done in the spirit of Vatican Li's recommendation that religious institutes recapture the original inspiration of their founders and adapt it to the circumstances of modern times. The Seminar welcomes reactions or comments in regard to the material that it publishes. The Seminar focuses its direct attention on the life and work of the Jesuits of the United States. The issues treated may be common also to Jesuits of other regions, to other priests, religious, and laity, to both men and women. Hence, the journal, while meant especially for American Jesuits, is not exclusively for them. Others who may find it helpful are cordially welcome to make use of it. CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE SEMINAR Robert L. Bireley, S.J., teaches history at Loyola University, Chicago, IL (2001). Richard A. Blake, S.J., is chairman of the Seminar and editor of STUDIES; he teaches film studies at Boston College, Chestnut Hill, MA (2002). Claudio M. Burgaleta, S.J., is executive director of Estudios Pastorales para la Nueva Evangelizacion, in Oceanside, NY (2002).

  • Padre Rutilio Grande. Profeta Y Mártir De América Latina
    Nº 92 PADREPADRE RUTILIORUTILIO GRANDE.GRANDE. PROFETAPROFETA YY MÁRTIRMÁRTIR DEDE AMÉRICAAMÉRICA LATINA.LATINA. 2 INTRODUCCIÓN A 40 AÑOS INTRODUCCIÓN El 12 de marzo de 1977 en Aguilares, en el Salvador son acribillados a ba- lazos por los Escuadrones de la Muerte, Rutilio Grande, sacerdote jesuita de 49 años, y sus compañeros Nelson R. Lemus, de 16 años, y Manuel Solorzano, de 72 años. Es un momento en Centroamérica en el que están resurgiendo los movi- mientos sociales, en que está queriendo nacer un nuevo modelo de sistema de orientación socialista y cuando se están llevando a cabo procesos de luchas po- pulares, con la participación de muchos sectores de la población, en los que tam- bién se integran las Comunidades Eclesiales de Base (influenciadas éstas por la teología de la liberación). Rutilio, como salvadoreño, es consciente de las necesidades de su pueblo y se suma al proceso. Trabaja desde su parroquia en la concientización y también en la formación de líderes y de delegados de la palabra, dentro de su comunidad. Desde ahí denuncia las expulsiones, persecución y el silenciamiento de otros sa- cerdotes salvadoreños por parte de su gobierno. “Queridos hermanos y amigos, me doy perfecta cuenta que muy pronto la Biblia y el Evangelio no podrán cruzar las fronteras. Sólo nos llegarán las cubiertas, ya que todas las páginas son subversivas—contra el pecado, se entiende. De manera que si Jesús cruza la frontera cerca de Chalatenango, no lo dejarán entrar. Le acusarían al Hombre-Dios... de agitador, de forastero judío, que confunde al pueblo con ideas exóticas y foráneas, ideas contra la democracia, esto es, contra las minorías.

This October, we traveled to Rome with Jesuits from all over the world for the Society of Jesus’ 36th General Congregation (GC36). This historic meeting was the 36th time the global Society has come together since the first General Congregation in 1558, nearly two years after St. Ignatius died. General Congregations are always summoned upon the death or resignation of the Jesuits’ Superior General, and this year we came together to elect a Jesuit to succeed Fr. Adolfo Nicolás, SJ, who has faithfully served as Superior General since 2008. After prayerful consideration, we elected Fr. Arturo Sosa Abascal, SJ, a Jesuit priest from Venezuela. Father Sosa is warm, friendly, and down-to-earth, with a great sense of humor that puts people at ease. He has offered his many gifts to intellectual, educational, and social apostolates at all levels in service to the Gospel and the universal Church. One of his most impressive achievements came during his time as rector of la Universidad Católica del Táchira, where he helped the student body grow from 4,000 to 8,000 students and gave the university a strong social orientation to study border issues in Venezuela. The Jesuits in Venezuela have deep love and respect for Fr.
