  • Book IV – Function of the Church: Part I – the Sacraments
    The Sacraments The Catholic Church recognizes the existence of Seven Sacraments instituted by the Lord. They are: Sacraments of Christian Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist Sacraments of Healing: Penance (Reconciliation) and Anointing of the Sick Sacraments at the Service of Communion: Holy Orders and Matrimony Code of Cannon Law: Book IV - Function of the Church: Part I - The Sacraments The Sacraments (Code of Canon Law; Cann. 840-848) Can. 840 The sacraments of the New Testament were instituted by Christ the Lord and entrusted to the Church. As actions of Christ and the Church, they are signs and means which express and strengthen the faith, render worship to God, and effect the sanctification of humanity and thus contribute in the greatest way to establish, strengthen, and manifest ecclesiastical communion. Accordingly, in the celebration of the sacraments the sacred ministers and the other members of the Christian faithful must use the greatest veneration and necessary diligence. Can. 841 Since the sacraments are the same for the whole Church and belong to the divine deposit, it is only for the supreme authority of the Church to approve or define the requirements for their validity; it is for the same or another competent authority according to the norm of can. 838 §§3 and 4 (Can. 838 §3. It pertains to the conferences of bishops to prepare and publish, after the prior review of the Holy See, translations of liturgical books in vernacular languages, adapted appropriately within the limits defined in the liturgical books themselves. §4. Within the limits of his competence, it pertains to the diocesan bishop in the Church entrusted to him to issue liturgical norms which bind everyone.) to decide what pertains to their licit celebration, administration, and reception and to the order to be observed in their celebration.

  • Birmingham Overland Route
    Birmingham Overland Route By John Ashton Unprprd Birmingham Overland route CHAPTER VII Genesis of “The Charter” L. & N. W. Railway opened to BirminghamOverland route to IndiaA bold smugglerBull baitingVisitors to the Queen“The Boy Jones.” Probably nearly all my readers have heard of the “Chartists,” but it is equally probable that few know when the agitation commenced, and the reason for its existence. The “Charter,” as it was called, was the Radical outcome of the Reform Bill of 1832. For a time, after the passing of that Bill, the land had peace, for all reasonable reforms had been granted, but the demagogues were not going to be quietly annihilated, and an agitation for more trenchant reform was got up, and a mass meeting in its favour was held at Birmingham, on the 6th of August, and at it were inaugurated the principles of “The People‟s Charter,” as it was called. It is currently reported that this “Charter” was drawn up by William Lovett, a carpenter and cabinet maker, who took an active part in getting rid of the stamp tax upon newspapers; and it is very likely that it was so, for he drew up most of the petitions and addresses for the movement, and, in connection with it, he, the following year, suffered 12 months‟ imprisonment. He died Aug. 1877. The demands of this “Charter” were six, and they were familiarly known as the six points. They were: Universal Suffrage. Vote by Ballot. Annual Parliaments. Payment of the Members. Abolition of the Property Qualification. Equal Electoral Districts. The meeting was got up by T.

  • Solicitation in Confession
    WHEN BAD ADVICE IN CONFESSION BECOMES A CRIME The canonical crime of solicitation is likely more widespread than many may suppose. By Dr. Edward N. Peters All would agree that if a given piece of advice is bad in the confessional, then a priest's giving it to a penitent would be, at a minimum, a failure in pastoral care. Depending on circumstances, a priest's proffering of bad advice in confession might even, as a violation of charity or justice, be sinful. But, that the giving of bad advice in confession could be a crime under Church law would be startling. And yet, exactly this reading of Canon 1387 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law is required, I suggest, in light of sound canonical tradition and recent Roman curial norms. Canon 1387 states: "A priest who in the act, on the occasion, or under the pretext of confession solicits a penitent to sin against the sixth commandment of the Decalogue is to be punished, according to the gravity of the delict, by suspension, prohibitions, and privations; in graver cases he is to be dismissed from the clerical state." The image of solicitation that springs to mind here is, of course, that of a priest using the confessional to propose carnal liaisons to a female penitent.l To be sure, such reprehensible behavior is criminalized by Canon 1387. But neither the text of Canon 1387 (specifically the phrase, "solicits a penitent to sin against the sixth commandment of the Decalogue") nor the tradition behind the modern canon construes the crime of solicitation that narrowly.

  • A Priest's Prayer Before Hearing Confessions A
    Promemoria for the Confessor A PRIEST’S PRAYER BEFORE HEARING CONFESSIONS O Lord, give me wisdom to assist me when I am in the confessional, so that I know how to judge your people with justice and your poor with good sense. Grant that I use the keys of the kingdom of heaven so that I do not open it to anyone who merits that it be closed and not close it to one who deserves that it to be opened. Grant that my intention be pure, my zeal sincere, my love patient and my ministry fruitful. That I be gentle but not weak, that my seriousness be not severity, and that I not despise the poor nor flatter the rich. Teach me to be affable in comforting sinners, prudent in asking questions and experienced in instructing them. Give me the grace to be able to remove them away from evil, make me diligent in confirming them in good; that I help them to be better with the maturity of my answers and the correctness of my advice; that I enlighten what is dark, be wise in complex matters and victorious in the difficult ones; that I not delay in unnecessary conversation nor let myself be influenced by what is corrupt lest saving others I lose myself. Amen. A PRIEST’S PRAYER AFTER HEARING CONFESSIONS Lord Jesus Christ, sweet lover and sanctifier of souls, I pray that by the infusion of your Holy Spirit You purify my heart of all feelings or bad thoughts and make up with your infinite compassion and mercy for everything in my ministry that because of my ignorance or negligence could be cause of sin.
