LA SALLE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES GRADUATE PROGRAM IN THEOLOGY AND MINISTRY DISSERTATION Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation: Catholic School Administrators Mary H. Fitzgerald, SSND 6/19/2017 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Theology Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation: Catholic School Administrators Mary H. Fitzgerald, SSND Approved by Mentor: __________________________________________________________ Name, Institution First Reader: _______________________________________________________ Name, Institution Second Reader: _____________________________________________________ Name, Institution Abstract The study was designed with a goal of generating a template for Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation for Catholic School Administrators, which would have flexibility to adapt to cultural differences in various Catholic dioceses in the United States. The focus of the data gathering was the Baltimore Province, inclusive of the dioceses of: Arlington, Virginia; Baltimore, Maryland; Richmond, Virginia; Wheeling-Charleston, West Virginia; and Wilmington, Delaware. The need for such a template can be documented based on several recent studies by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate. These studies indicate that the personal perception of what it means to be Catholic is shifting. In many cases, people applying for administrative positions in Catholic schools today are less prepared in terms of knowledge of the faith, practice of the faith, and Catholic spirituality than those who came before them. To ascertain what the template for a formation program should look like, data was gathered to address three research questions: 1.Which statement more clearly reflects your understanding of lay ecclesial ministry? a. Lay ecclesial ministry is a privileged limited share in the ministry of the ordained. b. Lay ecclesial ministry is an intrinsic responsibility in the Church stemming from baptism. 2. How do our Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation Programs provide a solid, on-going support for continued growth in human, intellectual, spiritual, theological, faith and moral development? How are participants properly prepared to apply this development specifically to the practicalities of leadership in Catholic education? 3. What needs to occur to ensure that our ecclesial catechesis of the baptismal commission effectively assists us in recruiting Spirit-filled enthusiastic candidates for positions in Catholic school leadership? How do we best market our programs in Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation for Leadership in Catholic schools? What type of leadership succession plan do we put in place to pave the way for the Catholic schools of the next decade or next century?

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.

    Lay Ministry Formation Program 2016-2017 Diocese of New Ulm “The Risen Lord calls everyone to labor in his vineyard, that is, in a world that must be transformed in view of the final coming of the Reign of God; and the Holy Spirit empowers all with the various gifts and ministries for the building up of the Body of Christ.” Co-Workers in the Vineyard of the Lord Contact Information The Diocese of New Ulm 507-359-2966 Bishop John M. LeVoir: Lay Catholic have the responsibility by Baptism to: “Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope…” (1Peter 3:15). In the process of giving reasons for their hope, the laity evangelizes the culture. Lay Catholics are called to bring the gospel message of Jesus Christ to the public square. To a culture that increasingly tells us that there is no God and that religion is a private, personal mat- ter, we must answer in the negative. Instead, like the first Apostles, lay people are called to: “Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature” (Mark 15:16). The Lay Ministry program prepares the laity to an- swer this call. Information includes: Overview of Programs 2016-2017 Together in Mission Information and Application Online Learning Undergraduate and Graduate Study Lay Ecclesial Ministry Certification Financial Support Overview: Foundations is a stand-alone year of training, but can also serve as the first of a two year program of training in missionary discipleship.

  • The Mountaineer: Sept 30, 2019
    The United States Conference of Secular Institutes The Mountaineer August 2019 Volume 12, Issue 2 Dear Friends, Heart Speaks to Heart. This is the theme of our coming annual national meeting, obviously inspired by divine providence. Just a few days after our executive committee had chosen this theme, it was announced that Pope Francis had approved the canonization of John Henry Cardinal Newman. The cardinal’s motto was: Cor ad cor loquitor, that is, “heart speaks to heart.” Now the canonization date has been set for just a month after our national meeting; it will take place in Rome on October 13, 2019. One can almost feel the breeze of the Holy Spirit as he swishes by with his wisdom. Such “coincidences” are messages from God that we want to take seriously, so let us meditate a bit on the truth that one heart speaks to another heart. This is a beautiful definition of prayer, that deep connection between God and the human heart, sometimes a unity that needs no words. Once in a while we might be graced by the prayer of just relax- ing in the presence of the loving Father, feeling a bond that expresses the reality that we belong together, Crea- tor and creature, Parent and child, Mercy and misery. The smaller cannot exist without the greater. Our consecrated life can also be described as “heart speaks to heart.” When the Lord Inside this issue: called you to be his very own in a special, exclusive way, that was his heart speaking to your heart. Usually such a calling grows slowly, almost unperceptively, just as love grows between a man and woman called to marriage.

    CHAPTER VII: Parish Stability Assured With Fr. Cardinal After serving ten months as the administrator, Bishop deGoesbriand installed Rev. Herve Cardinal, another Breton , as pastor on October 22, 1857. Fr. Cardinal re- corded his arrival in the Annales. He remained until Au- gust 1871, providing to St. Joseph Parish its first lengthy period of stability. He had been ordained in Quimper, France; he was 46 when he came to Burlington. Fr. E.J. Hamon described him as a "Breton and Healer:' He became known as a healer because he tried to treat sick people and to give them medicine. This kept him very busy. People began to bring him their sick animals as well. This last ac- tivity came to an abrupt end when, in trying to treat the broken leg of a lamb, he broke another leg in the process. .... , ꞏꞏ.;:,,,. -- ꞏ - ꞏ - .. :- \ _;-,:ꞏz.•' ꞏꞏ . ꞏ ..ꞏ.'" ;- .. -- -.;; .. .)}t:-ꞏ t'f4. .:. 7 ,;t• .( . .• . ..,t iꞏ, ꞏ .. ꞏ.;, ''ꞏ ...: .. , ..', ,.; , .
