LXIV NO. 23 Colorado’s Largest Weekly 28 PAGES 25 CENTS Individual Confession Bishops asked to avoid abuses of generai absolution By Agostino Bono VATICAN CITY (NC) - Pope John Paul II has told U.S. bishops to promote greater individual Confession and to avoid abuses of general absolution. The sacrament of Penance is in crisis in many parts of the world because of “unwarranted interpretations’’ of the requirements for general absolution, he told a group of U.S. bishops May 31. The renewal process envisioned by the Second Vati­ can Council requires “the practice of integral and individual Confession of sins,’’ he added. The Pope said national bishops’ conferences must continuously promote better understanding of the re­ quirements for general absolution contained in canon law, the church’s legal code. “Sporadic efforts are not enough to overcome the crisis,’’ he said.

  • 2016-17 Annual Report
    1 1 2016-17 ANNUAL REPORT Students, Faculty, Staff, Neighbors & Friends of Chatfield: Chatfield College recently completed the 2016-2017 school and fiscal year. Many milestones were achieved, and a graduating class fifty nine-strong was launched with inspiring and motivating words from Chatfield alumna DeAnna Hoskins ’03. (See page 4 for a graduation feature. Better yet, go to www.chatfield.edu/commencementspeech to see a graduation slide show including the actual audio of DeAnna’s memorable and moving commencement address.) After the ceremony, graduates, families, friends, faculty, neighbors and staff were the first to see and experience the renovated and expanded Welcome Center. A year of messy and dusty construction culminated in a new dining and gathering space for everyone, reconfigured offices for the Site Director, Admissions staff and Financial Aid department, a comfortable waiting area, plus plenty of student-only seating and activity rooms to enhance the experience for St. Martin students for decades to come. (See photos on pages 8-9.) The Welcome Center project, like the opening of the award-winning Cincinnati Campus in Over-the-Rhine the prior year, was made possible by the loyal and generous members of the entire Chatfield family of donors and supporters who contributed to the “Building Community” capital campaign. That campaign, scheduled to last a half-decade (2013-2018), was completed a year early, in June, having achieved its lofty goal of $5 million in gifts and pledges. Thank you to all who invested in this campaign, and more importantly, invested in our students. The past year, like most, was not without challenges.

  • Directors of the Bureau of Catholic Indian Missions: 2
    Directors of the Bureau of Catholic Indian Missions: 2. Reverend Joseph A. Stephan, 1884-1901 Kevin Abing, 1994 Brouillet's successor, Father Joseph A. Stephan, was known as the "fighting" priest. Perhaps the sobriquet derived from Stephan's Civil War experience. More likely, however, the name reflected Stephan's personality. Whereas Brouillet favored negotiation and compromise, Stephan actively sought confrontation. As director, Stephan infused the BCIM with a "new and aggressive energy."1 Stephan's combativeness often served him and the Bureau well, but all too often, his stubbornness and volatile temper hindered the cause he served so faithfully. As Charles Lusk wrote, Stephan's "zeal for the Indians was unbounded and his courage great." But, Lusk mused, sometimes Stephan's "zeal might have been tempered with greater discretion."2 Joseph A. Stephan was born on November 22, 1822, at Gissigheim, in the duchy of Baden. His father was of Greek descent, and his mother was probably Irish.3 As a youth, Stephan attended the village school in Gissigheim and later served an apprenticeship in the carpentry trade at Koenigsheim. Apparently, the life of a carpenter did not suit Stephan for he eventually joined the military, eventually becoming an officer under Prince Chlodwig K. Victor von Hohenlode. To further his military career, Stephan studied civil engineering at Karlsruhe Polytechnic Institute and philology at the University of Freiburg.4 While studying at Freiburg, disaster struck. From some unknown cause, Stephan was struck blind for two years. Similar to Saint Paul, Stephan turned to God during this trial. He reportedly pledged to become a priest if his eyesight returned.

  • Archbishop's Letter
    Happy 200th Birthday Archbishop Lamy! Archbishop Michael J. Sheehan, People of God, October 2014 The founding bishop of Santa Fe was Jean-Baptiste Lamy. He was born on October 11, 1814 in Lempdes, Puy-de-Dôme, in the Auvergne region of France. The Archdiocese of Clermont in France is celebrating his 200th birthday with several events this month. I have appointed Msgr. Bennett J. Voorhies, pastor of Our Lady of the Annunciation in Albuquerque (he is also dean of Albuquerque Deanery B) as my representative as he is fluent in French. Archbishop Lamy completed his classical studies in the Minor Seminary at Clermont and theological coursework in the Major Seminary at Montferrand, where he was trained by the Sulpician fathers. He was ordained a priest at the age of 24 on December 22, 1838; he asked for and obtained permission to serve as a missionary for Bishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio. As a missionary, he served at several missions in Ohio and Kentucky. Pope Pius IX appointed him as bishop of the recently created Apostolic Vicariate of New Mexico on July 23, 1850; he was only 36 years old. He was consecrated as a bishop on November 24, 1850 by Archbishop Martin Spalding of Louisville; Bishops Jacques-Maurice De Saint Palais of Vincennes and Louis Amadeus Rappe of Cleveland served as co-consecrators. After a long and dangerous journey by horse and wagon train, he finally reached Santa Fe. He entered Santa Fe on August 9, 1851 and was welcomed by Governor James S. Calhoun and many citizens.
