study of Church history and the fathers of the Church was in a sad state of neglect. A promising scholar from his youth in Tuscany, he devoted his energy to these two subjects, as well as to Scripture, in order to systemaze Church doctrine against the aacks of the Protestant Reformers. He was the first Jesuit to become a professor at Louvain.

His most famous work is his threeRvolume
Disputaons on the Controversies of the Chrisan Faith. Parcularly noteworthy are the secons on the temporal power of the pope and the role of the laity. Bellarmine incurred the anger of monarchists in England and France by showing the divineRrightRofRkings theory untenable. He developed the theory of the indirect power of the pope in temporal affairs; although he was defending the pope against the Scosh philosopher Barclay, he also incurred the ire of Pope Sixtus V.

Bellarmine was made a cardinal by Pope Clement VIII on the grounds that “he had not his equal for learning.” While he occupied apartments in the Vacan, Bellarmine relaxed none of his former austeries. He limited his household expenses to what was barely essenal, eang only the food available to the poor. He was known to have ransomed a soldier who had deserted from the army and he used the hangings of his rooms to clothe poor people, remarking, “The walls won’t catch cold.”

Among many acvies, Bellarmine became theologian to Pope Clement VIII, preparing two OBSERVANCES THIS WEEK catechisms which have had great influence in the Church.

MONDAY: The Exaltaon of the Holy Cross
The last major controversy of Bellarmine’s life came in 1616 when he had to admonish his friend Galileo, whom he admired. He delivered the admonion on behalf of the Holy Office, TUESDAY: Our Lady of Sorrows
which had decided that the heliocentric theory of Copernicus was contrary to Scripture. WEDNESDAY: Sts. Cornelius, Pope, and Cyprian, The admonion amounted to a cauon against pung forwardVother than as a Bishop, Martyrs

St. Robert Bellarmine died on September 17, 1621. The process for his canonizaon was SATURDAY: St. Januarius, Bishop and Martyr
begun in 1627, but was delayed unl 1930 for polical reasons, stemming from his NEXT SUNDAY: 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, wrings. In 1930, Pope Pius XI canonized him, and the next year declared him a doctor of the Church.
Catechecal Sunday

St. Robert Bellarmine devoted his life to the study of Scripture and Catholic doctrine. His wrings help us understand that the real source of our faith is not merely a set of doctrines, but rather the person of Jesus sll living in the Church today. St. Robert is the patron saint of catechists and catechumens.

ATTENDING CRHP CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE A Letter from the Continuation Committee

My name is Barb Applegate and I am on the Connuaon Commiee for Christ Renews His Parish. Christ Renews His Parish is a weekend for everyone. We have people aend from ST. PATRICK CATHOLIC CHURCH 20R80+ years old. Why do people aend? There are several reasons. Someone they know has done the weekend and has recommended it, someone has been relentless in asking Gretna, Nebraska them to aend, they are looking for a boost in their faith life and finally, they feel the Holy Spirit call them. Whatever the reason, we are delighted to have you. The weekend is about CHRIST RENEWS HIS PARISH faith sharing, learning more about our Catholic faith, and geng to know other Fall Weekends Planned in September parishioners. So why do people hesitate? Here are the most common reasons I hear:

“I can’t give up an enre weekend,” is a tough one for me as we are asking for only 33 hours. Think of the things we do that add up to 33 hours CHRIST RENEWS HIS PARISH that don’t help us grow in our faith. Just sit with that for a second. I will let you figure out Precautions for the Weekends what those things are. I love that people do other “things” to grow their faith. We offer many opportunies at our church to do this, which is fantasc. However, with COVID some We are very excited and blessed to hold the Christ other things are now postponed so CRHP may be the opportunity you are looking for.
