In fact, people should be wary of superficial ethical practices that “are adopted primarily as a marketing device, without any effect on relationships inside and outside the business itself,” and without promoting justice and the common good, said Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican’s secretary of state. Cardinal Bertone was one of a number of speakers invited to the Executive Summit on Ethics for the Business World, sponsored by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace and the Legion of Christ’s Fidelis International Institute, which promotes ethics in Francesca LaRosa is scheduled to sing the ballad version of the theme song “Called to Glory” for the 2011 National Catholic Youth Conference in business.

The Theology of the Lay Apostolate
THE THEOLOGY OF THE LAY APOSTOLATE When Monsignor Murphy requested me to prepare this paper on the theology of the lay apostolate for the 19S9 convention of the Catholic Theological Society of America he indicated that the Com- mittee on Current Problems was interested in the topic in order that a course on the subject could be worked into the seminary frame- work. This seminar, therefore, has a twofold purpose: an inquiry into the theological problems of the lay apostolate and the more practical issue of the relationship of those questions to the seminary curriculum. In order that the second objective might be at least par- tially realized a letter was mailed to the major seminaries of the United States to determine the present status of the theology of the lay apostolate in the seminary course. Forty-five replies were re- ceived and the information can be summarized rather briefly. Nine- teen of the forty-five seminaries said that nothing or practically nothing was done. The remaining twenty-six all treated the topic in one way or another, either in elective seminars, special classes or lectures, in extra-curricular activities or in other classes. The most common method was to consider the lay apostolate in courses already in the curriculum, for example in Dogma (de Ecclesia, de Baptismo, de Confirmatione, de Verbo Incarnato), in Missiology, Pastoral Theology and Catechetics. In the last three cases the treatment tended to be more practical. Whether or not a special course should be introduced into the seminary is questionable. Those who expressed themselves on this point thought that the cur- riculum is already overcrowded and that seminarians have too little opportunity for individual study and reflection. -

It is arguable that this prejudice is becoming less topical by the year, for various reasons; among others, Franco died over a quarter of a century ago. Furthermore, Opus Dei is a world-wide institution. However, the theme occasionally comes to the fore. One can still find articles in works of reference affirming that Opus Dei had political influence in Franco’s government, through the important posts occupied by its members. -
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. -
The Archconfraternity of the Most Precious Blood
The Archconfraternity of the Most Precious Blood By Francesco Bartoloni, cpps I should like to begin by noting that in preparing this presentation I have relied heavily on Michele Colagiovanni’s, Il Padre Segreto, Vita di Monsignore Francesco Albertini, especially chapters 10, 11, 12, and 18, and an article by Mario Dariozzi, cpps, “L’Arciconfraternità del Preziossissimo Sangue in San Nicola in Carcere Tulliano.” (See the end of the article for full references.) The Enciclopedia Cattolica defines a confraternity as an ecclesiastical corporation, composed primarily of the laity, canonically erected and governed by a competent superior, with the aim of promoting the Christian faith by means of special good works directed to divine worship or to charity to one’s neighbor. Often worship and charity are associated aims in the statutes of confraternities. Thus conceived, they are genuine and stable ecclesiastical foundations with their own organization, capable of having their own statutes, etc. According to the Code of Canon Law of 1917, confraternities are not to be confused with: 1. those institutes that have the title of “pious causes” (hospitality, recovery houses, orphanages, etc.) which have a more complex aim; 2. pious unions that exist for a particular occasion, held together by the will of their members, which go out of existence when there are no more members; 3. secular third orders that are closely linked with the religious order from which they derive their name; 4. associations of the arts and of craftsmen which have an aim that is primarily economic, even if they place themselves under the protection of a saint. -

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. -

Politics of the Blessed Lady: Catholic Art in the Contemporary Hungarian Culture Industry
religions Article Politics of the Blessed Lady: Catholic Art in the Contemporary Hungarian Culture Industry Marc Roscoe Loustau McFarland Center for Religion, Culture and Ethics, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, MA 02131, USA; [email protected] or [email protected]; Tel.: +1-857-222-6955 Abstract: I examine Hungary’s Catholic arts industry and its material practices of cultural production: the institutions and professional disciplines through which devotional material objects move as they become embedded in political processes of national construction and contestation. Ethnographic data come from thirty-six months of fieldwork in Hungary and Transylvania, and focuses on three museum and gallery exhibitions of Catholic devotional objects. Building on critiques of subjectivity- and embodiment-focused research, I highlight how the institutional legacies of state socialism in Hungary and Romania inform a national politics of Catholic materiality. Hungarian cultural institutions and intellectuals have been drawn to work with Catholic art because Catholic material culture sustains a meaningful presence across multiple scales of political contestation at the local, regional, and state levels. The movement of Catholic ritual objects into the zone of high art and cultural preservation necessitates that these objects be mobilized for use within the political agendas of state-embedded institutions. Yet, this mobilization is not total. Ironies, confusions, and contradictions continue to show up in Transylvanian Hungarians’ historical memory, destabilizing these political uses.

The Vietnam War, the Church, the Christian Democratic Party and the Italian Left Catholics
social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article The Vietnam War, the Church, the Christian Democratic Party and the Italian Left Catholics Daniela Saresella Department of Historical Studies, University of Milan, 20122 Milan, Italy; [email protected] Received: 6 March 2018; Accepted: 28 March 2018; Published: 3 April 2018 Abstract: Over the years of the Cold War, the conflict in Vietnam assumed the significance of a clash between two civilizations, the West and communism. Italian Catholics thus found themselves not only invoking the end of the conflict, but also expressing their evaluations on the choices made in international politics by the two superpowers. The positions assumed by the ecclesiastic Institution, the Christian Democrats and the Catholic world in Italy towards the war in Indochina were not identical: in fact, if—with a few exceptions—the ecclesiastic hierarchy was distinguished by its extreme caution, in the Catholic party different positions became manifest. It was mainly in Catholic associations, and in general amongst believers closer to the experience of the Vatican Council, that a radical sense of aversion to U.S. foreign policy developed. Keywords: Vietnam War; Italian Catholics; Cold War; Italian Church; Christian Democratic Party 1. The Italian Church The sixties saw a period of profound change, not only in the West but in other continents, too: the civil rights movement in the United States, the battles against oppressive regimes in Latin America, the cultural revolution in China, the upheavals in Eastern European countries and the leading role played by young people all enlivened the decade. The Catholic Church was also marked by radical innovations with the pontificate of John XXIII and from 1962 with the start of the Second Vatican Council.
