TAYLOR 7TH BISHOP OF LITTLE ROCK Most Reverend Eusebius J. Beltran, the Metropolitan Archbishop of the Province of Oklahoma City, is pleased and honored to announce the fact that one of our priests, Reverend Anthony B. Taylor, has been selected and appointed by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI as the seventh bishop of the Diocese of Little Rock. The official announcement was made in the Vatican on Thursday, April 10 at noon. Simultaneous announce- ments were released in Washing- ton, D.C., where it was 6 a.m., and in Oklahoma City and Little Rock at 5 a.m. Immediately thereafter, Archbishop Beltran and Bishop- Elect Taylor drove to Little Rock for a press conference, which was held at 2 p.m. at Saint John Catholic Center, Morris Hall. They returned to Oklahoma City for a press conference scheduled in Conners Center at the Cathedral of Our Lady at 9:30 a.m. Friday. The Diocese of Little Rock, along with the Diocese of Tulsa and the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City, comprise the ecclesiastical province of Oklahoma City. Most Reverend Peter J. Sartain, the previous bishop of Little Rock, was transferred to the Diocese of Joliet in Illinois in June 2006. Therefore, the Diocese of Little Rock has been without a bishop for almost two years. During this time, the diocese was ably shepherded by Monsignor Gaston Hebert, who had been elected administrator by the Priest Consultors of the Diocese of Little Rock. On Wednesday, June 4, there will be a Vespers and Reception into the Diocese. This ceremony will be held at Christ the King Church in Little Rock. Bishop Taylor will be ordained to the episcopacy in Little Rock on Thursday, June 5, at 2 p.m. Most Reverend Pietro Sambi, the Apostolic Nuncio to the United States and the personal representative of Pope Benedict XVI, will be present for the ordina- tion. Archbishop Beltran will be the principal consecrator and he will be joined by other bishops concelebrating the Ordination Mass which will take place in the Little Rock Convention Center.

  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church
    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.
