FROM THE BISHOP on an additional mystery or on praying for a particular intention. Since my arrival in Spokane, I have encour- aged the faithful to pray a sixth decade of the rosary for vocations to the diocesan priesthood and religious life. The Church in the United States also marks October as a month dedicated to the protection of human life. The first Sunday of the month is observed in parishes as Respect Life Sunday. This celebration always falls close to the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary — Oct. 7. All of these themes tie together intimately: the rosary, the protection of human life, and vocations. Our Lady is mother to all and, as she told the visionaries at Fatima, SIXTH in the end, her Immaculate Heart will triumph. DECADE So this October, let us renew our devotion to the OF THE rosary and to praying for the unborn, the infirm and all those threatened by the culture of death. I also ask that when you pray the rosary, please pray a sixth decade for vocations. If we seek renewal in the life in the Church, we must pray for vocations to the priest- hood, consecrated life, and holy marriage. In Mary our mother — whom we were entrusted to by Jesus while he hung on the cross — we find our truest advocate for life, for faith, and for the mission of the Church. If we turn to Mary, we can be sure that her Immaculate Heart GETTY IMAGES/SPUKKATO will triumph here in Eastern Washington and through- out the world.

The rosary that most of us are familiar with praying is known as the Dominican Rosary. As originally developed, it consists of three sets of five mysteries, with each mystery containing a decade (or set of 10) of Hail Mary prayers, totaling 150. The rosary allowed many of the faithful in Western Europe who could not pray the 150 Psalms contained in the Liturgy of the Hours — the community prayer of priests and nuns — to align their prayer with the daily prayer of the Church. According to pious tradition, the Blessed Virgin Mary gave the rosary to St. Dominic. In BISHOP THOMAS 2002, St. John Paul II advocated adding a fourth set of A.

  • Chinese Catholic Nuns and the Organization of Religious Life in Contemporary China
    religions Article Chinese Catholic Nuns and the Organization of Religious Life in Contemporary China Michel Chambon Anthropology Department, Hanover College, Hanover, IN 47243, USA; [email protected] Received: 25 June 2019; Accepted: 19 July 2019; Published: 23 July 2019 Abstract: This article explores the evolution of female religious life within the Catholic Church in China today. Through ethnographic observation, it establishes a spectrum of practices between two main traditions, namely the antique beatas and the modern missionary congregations. The article argues that Chinese nuns create forms of religious life that are quite distinct from more universal Catholic standards: their congregations are always diocesan and involved in multiple forms of apostolate. Despite the little attention they receive, Chinese nuns demonstrate how Chinese Catholics are creative in their appropriation of Christian traditions and their response to social and economic changes. Keywords: christianity in China; catholicism; religious life; gender studies Surveys from 2015 suggest that in the People’s Republic of China, there are 3170 Catholic religious women who belong to 87 registered religious congregations, while 1400 women belong to 37 unregistered ones.1 Thus, there are approximately 4570 Catholics nuns in China, for a general Catholic population that fluctuates between eight to ten million. However, little is known about these women and their forms of religious life, the challenges of their lifestyle, and their current difficulties. Who are those women? How does their religious life manifest and evolve within a rapidly changing Chinese society? What do they tell us about the Catholic Church in China? This paper explores the various forms of religious life in Catholic China to understand how Chinese women appropriate and translate Catholic religious ideals.

  • To Pray the Rosary for Vocations
    TThhee HHoollyy RRoossaarryy ffoorr VVooccaattiioonnss The Holy Rosary is an ancient form of prayer in the Church that dates back to the early Middle Ages. Through this meditative prayer, we join our prayers with those of the Blessed Virgin Mary in asking God for what we need. It is a powerful prayer, indeed. This guide is meant to assist those who pray to focus their prayer of the Rosary for the intentions of Vocations in the Archdiocese of Baltimore. As you pray and meditate on the mysteries, please remember to pray for those who hear God’s call to service in the Church as priests, deacons, bishops, consecrated men and women and holy husbands and wives. Pray that you know your vocation and follow it with generosity and joy. And finally, know that in making this prayer your own you are united not only with Mary and the angels and the saints, but with fellow believers everywhere. Pray the Master of the Harvest to send laborers into His vineyard! How to Pray the Rosary On the crucifix, pray the Apostles’ Creed: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son Our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and sits at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.

  • Praying for Vocations: a Meditated Rosary For
    PRAYING FOR VOCATIONS: A MEDITATED ROSARY FOR VOCATIONS TO THE PRIESTHOOD AND CONSECRATED LIFE By Monsignor Peter Dunne And Vicki Herout INTRODUCTION In the Mysteries of the Rosary, we contemplate the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. But, if we look carefully with the eyes of faith, we may also see the life of a vocation to serve the Lord in His Church unfolding in the rhythm of the mysteries, following the path of the life of Jesus. In the Joyful Mysteries, we first see the seed of vocation appearing, the “infant” vocation, and we pray for its nurturing in devout homes, parishes, and schools. In the Luminous Mysteries, the Mysteries of Light, we contemplate the vocation as it takes its first steps into the light of the Church, and we pray for prayerful discernment. In the Sorrowful Mysteries, we call to mind Jesus’ words, “…unless a grain of wheat falls to the [earth] and dies, it remains a grain of wheat, but if it dies...”1 We pray for young men and women as they enter into formation, preparing to give their lives in service to the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ. Finally, in the Glorious Mysteries, we contemplate in the Resurrection of Jesus the glorious entrance of the newly ordained or professed into the life of Holy Mother Church, and we pray for their mission, service, and fidelity. Let us turn our eyes, then, to Mary and join with Her in praying to the Master of the Harvest that He many send an abundance of laborers into His Holy Vineyard.

  • A Guide to Becoming a Franciscan Friar of the Atonement Formation Overview
    THE ROAD TO CONSECRATED LIFE A guide to becoming a Franciscan Friar of the Atonement Formation Overview The Franciscan Friars of the Atonement is a Roman Catholic Franciscan Community, founded originally in the Episcopal Church to realize the prayer of Jesus: “That all may be one...that the world would believe” (John 17:21-23). Our Community witness in the vowed life of chastity, poverty, and obedience is lived in a way that gives joyful testimony of the fullness of life that God intends for all people. Our name, At-One-Ment, reflects our particular gifts: a passion for the reconciliation of all creation with God and all people with one another. We seek men who are imbued with this same desire to join us. We desire to help, guide, and grow with the men who contemplate religious life in our Community and do not look at the formation process as a hurdle to be jumped over, but rather a wonderful period of time where a man may immerse himself in the goodness of the Holy Spirit and come to understand God’s will. The formation program is designed to enable individuals to develop and appreciate our gift that we may together give witness to the reconciliation that was accomplished by Jesus Christ — Our Atonement. This formation process is designed to engage men in a process of holistic human growth. The areas we seek to develop involve the spiritual, communal, personal, educational, cultural, and ministerial aspects of one’s life. By concentrating in these areas, we seek to bring about wholeness through our community life and quality ministry for the Church.

  • Christian Monastic Communities Living in Harmony with the Environment: an Overview of Positive Trends and Best Practices 1
    Christian monastic communities living in harmony with the environment: an overview of positive trends and best practices 1 Abstract This paper explores the relationship between Christian monastic communities and nature and the natural environment, a new field for this journal. After reviewing their historical origins and evolution, and discussing their key doctrinal principles regarding the environment, the paper provides an overview of the best practices developed by these communities of various sizes that live in natural surroundings, and reviews promising new trends. These monastic communities are the oldest self-organised communities in the Old World with a continuous history of land and environmental management, and have generally had a positive impact on nature and landscape conservation. Their experience in adapting to and overcoming environmental and economic crises is highly relevant in modern-day society as a whole and for environmental managers and policy makers in particular. This paper also argues that the efforts made by a number of monastic communities, based on the principles of their spiritual traditions, to become more environmentally coherent should be encouraged and publicized to stimulate more monastic communities to follow their example and thus to recapture the environmental and spiritual coherence of their ancestors. The paper concludes that the best practices in nature conservation developed by Christian 1 This paper is a substantial development, both in content and scope, of a previous paper written by one of us (JM) for the Proceedings of the Third workshop of The Delos Initiative, which took place in Lapland, Finland, in 2010. A certain number of the experiences discussed here comes from case studies prepared during the last nine years in the context of The Delos Initiative, jointly co-ordinated by two of us (TP, JM), within the IUCN World Commission of Protected Areas.
