  • The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic
    The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic Dear Readers, The publication on the Ro- man Catholic Church which you are holding in your hands may strike you as history that belongs in a museum. How- ever, if you leaf through it and look around our beauti- ful country, you may discover that it belongs to the present as well. Many changes have taken place. The history of the Church in this country is also the history of this nation. And the history of the nation, of the country’s inhabitants, always has been and still is the history of the Church. The Church’s mission is to serve mankind, and we want to fulfil Jesus’s call: “I did not come to be served but to serve.” The beautiful and unique pastoral constitution of Vatican Coun- cil II, the document “Joy and Hope” begins with the words: “The joys and the hopes, the grief and the anxieties of the men of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the grief and anxieties of the followers of Christ.” This is the task that hundreds of thousands of men and women in this country strive to carry out. According to expert statistical estimates, approximately three million Roman Catholics live in our country along with almost twenty thousand of our Eastern broth- ers and sisters in the Greek Catholic Church, with whom we are in full communion. There are an additional million Christians who belong to a variety of other Churches. Ecumenical cooperation, which was strengthened by decades of persecution and bullying of the Church, is flourishing remarkably in this country.

  • Press Conference to Present the New Book VI of the Code of Canon Law
    N. 210601e Tuesday 01.06.2021 Press Conference to present the new Book VI of the Code of Canon Law At 11.30 this morning, a press conference was live-streamed from the Holy See Press Office on the amendments to Book VI of the Code of Canon Law. The speakers were: Archbishop Filippo Iannone, O.Carm., president of the Pontifical Council for Legislative Texts, and Bishop Juan Ignacio Arrieta Ochoa de Chinchetru, secretary of the same Pontifical Council. The following are their interventions: Intervention by Archbishop Filippo Iannone, O.Carm. With the Apostolic Constitution Pascite gregem Dei (“Shepherd God's flock”), dated 23 May 2021, the Solemnity of Pentecost, Pope Francis promulgated the new Book VI of the Code of Canon Law, containing regulations on criminal sanctions in the Church. The legislative text, "so that all may easily be informed and fully understand the provisions in question”, will come into force on 8 December, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception. As is well known, this is one of the seven books that make up the Code of Canon Law. “The Code of Canon Law is extremely necessary for the Church”, wrote Pope John Paul II. “Since, indeed, it is organised as a social and visible structure, it must also have norms: in order that its hierarchical and organic structure be visible, in order that the exercise of the functions divinely entrusted to her, especially that of sacred power and of the administration of the sacraments, may be adequately organised; in order that the mutual relations of the faithful may be regulated according to justice based upon charity, with the rights of individuals guaranteed and well defined”.

  • Bishops' Response to IICSA Recommendations
    Catholic Council for the IICSA – Recommendations Action Plan Introduction 1. The IICSA Report into the Roman Catholic Church was published on 10th November 2020. The Report covered the material following the final set of public hearings held the previous year as well as matters emerging from the case studies into the English Benedictine Congregation (Ampleforth, Downside and Ealing Abbeys and their associated schools) and the Archdiocese of Birmingham. 2. The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales met in Plenary Assembly that month, following the publication of the Report. A significant amount of time was dedicated to the analysis of the Report alongside an additional report, commissioned by the Bishops. Mr Ian Elliott, a well-renowned leading independent safeguarding consultant, led a review into the effectiveness of safeguarding structures and operations in the Catholic Church in England and Wales. This extensive root and branch review produced a detailed report including recommendations on how safeguarding structures could be strengthened across the Church. 3. At the end of the meeting, the Bishops’ Conference passed the following resolution: The Bishops’ Conference receives both the Final IICSA Report into the Roman Catholic Church and the Independent Review Report on Safeguarding Structures and Arrangements. a. It accepts the Recommendations of the IICSA Report, noting that the Catholic Council for the IICSA must provide a detailed action plan within 6 months to the Inquiry showing how the Church will implement the Recommendations. b. It accepts fully the Recommendations of the Elliott Report and asks that an Implementation Group be created using members of the Review Steering Committee, to scope the way forward, without delay, so that effective positive change is made in our safeguarding structures and arrangements.

  • Holy Mass with Presbyteral Ordinations
    N. 170507a Sunday 07.05.2017 Holy Mass with Presbyteral Ordinations At 9.15 today, Fourth Sunday of Easter and 54th World Day of Prayer for Vocations, the Holy Father Francis presided in the Vatican Basilica at Holy Mass during which presbyteral ordination was conferred to ten deacons from Roman diocesan seminaries (Pontifical Roman Major Seminary, Pontifical Roman Minor Seminary, “Redemptoris Mater” Diocesan College, and Seminary of Our Lady of Divine Love), and from other colleges. The following concelebrated with the Holy Father: Cardinal Agostino Vallini, vicar general of His Holiness for the diocese of Rome; His Excellency Msgr. Filippo Iannone, vicegerente; the auxiliary bishops; the superiors of the seminaries represented; and the ordinands’ parish priests. The homily pronounced by the Holy Father during the Eucharistic celebration was substantially the ritual homily given in the Italian edition of the Roman Pontifical for the Ordination of Presbyters, to which he added some further considerations. Homily of the Holy Father Dear brothers, These our sons are now to be advanced to the Order of Priests. Let us consider carefully the nature of the ministry to which they are about to be raised. It is true that God has made His entire holy people a royal priesthood in Christ. Nevertheless, our great Priest Himself, Jesus Christ, chose certain disciples to carry out publicly in His name, and on behalf of mankind, a priestly office in the Church. They were elected by the Lord Jesus not to embark on a career, but to undertake this service. For Christ was sent by the Father, and He in turn sent the Apostles into the world, so that through them and their successors, the Bishops, to whom are given as co-workers the priests, joined to them in the priestly office, and called to the service of the people of God.

  • Final Message of the General Chapter of the Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel 2019
    FINAL MESSAGE OF THE GENERAL CHAPTER OF THE BROTHERS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY OF MOUNT CARMEL 2019 “You are my witnesses” (Is. 43:10) From one generation to the next: called to be faithful to our Carmelite charism We, Carmelite Friars, gathered in General Chapter at Il Carmelo, Sassone, Italy (10-27 September 2019), from all over the world, greet our brothers and sisters of the Carmelite Family: grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. A global Order We rejoice in our coming together as brothers in Carmel. The general chapter is the principal sign of the unity of our Order, in all its diversity. It is the fraternal gathering in which we listen to the Holy Spirit and our Lord Jesus Christ, so as to know God’s will for this generation so that we best serve the Church (cf. Const. 255). Every Chapter is, as our brother Archbishop Filippo Iannone reminded us, an ecclesial event. In his address, Carmelite Archbishop Antonio Muniz challenged us with a question from our own tradition. He helped us to hear the Lord’s question to Elijah, ‘What are you doing here?’ as one addressed to members of the chapter: ‘What are you doing here, Carmelites?’ In the following days we attempted with the help of the Holy Spirit to give an answer to this question. As a truly universal gathering, unity in diversity has been very evident at this chapter. While varying parts of the Order experience a decline in membership, many parts of the Order are experiencing steady growth.

  • Be Pastors Not Functionaries, Pope Says to New Priests
    Be Pastors not Functionaries, Pope says to new priests Pope Francis conferred priestly ordination upon ten deacons from several Roman diocesan seminaries: the Major Seminary, the Seminary of the Oblates, the sanctuary of the Virgin of Divine Love, and the Redemptoris Mater Seminary. Concelebrating with the Holy Father were Cardinal Agostino Vallini, vicar general of His Holiness for Rome, Archbishop Filippo Iannone, O. Carm., vice gerent of the diocese of Rome, auxiliary bishops, and the superiors of the seminaries from which the new priests came. The homily delivered by the Bishop of Rome was based on the one that appears in the Pontificale Romanum for the ordination of priests, with one or two personal additions, mainly emphasizing the mercy that must characterize the new priests. Following are ample extracts from his homily. “It is true that God has made his entire holy people a royal priesthood in Christ. Nevertheless, our great Priest himself, Jesus Christ, chose certain disciples to carry out publicly in his name, and on behalf of mankind, a priestly office in the Church. For Christ was sent by the Father and he in turn sent the Apostles into the world, so that through them and their successors, the Bishops, he might continue to exercise his office of Teacher, Priest, and Shepherd. Indeed, priests are established co-workers of the Order of Bishops, with whom they are joined in the priestly office and with whom they are called to the service of the people of God.” “Now ... you are to be raised to the Order of the Priesthood.

    N. 160418b Monday 18.04.2016 Francis ordains eleven new priests: be merciful, very merciful Vatican City, 17 April 2016 – Today, the fourth Sunday of Easter and the 53rd World Day of Prayer for Vocations, the Holy Father presided at Holy Mass in St. Peter's Basilica, during which he granted priestly ordination to eleven deacons, nine from the Roman diocesan seminaries (the Pontifical Roman Major Seminary, the Almo Collegio Capranica, the diocesan Redemptoris Mater college and the Seminary of Our Lady of Divine Love), and from another two colleges. Cardinal Agostino Vallini, vicar general of His Holiness for the diocese of Rome, concelebrated with the Holy Father, along with Bishop Filippo Iannone, vice regent, the auxiliary bishops of the capital, the superiors of the seminaries concerned and the pastors of the newly ordained priests. During the liturgy, the Pope pronounced the ritual homily of the Roman Pontifical, but as usual he added some special considerations. "These sons and brothers of ours have been called to the order of the priesthood … Indeed, they will be configured to Christ, Supreme and Eternal Priest, or rather they will be consecrated as true priests of the New Testament, and in this role, that unites them in the priesthood with their Bishop, they will be preachers of the Gospel, Pastors of the People of God, and they will preside over acts of worship, especially in the celebration of the Lord's sacrifice", affirmed the Holy Father. "As for you … dispense the Word of God to all, that Word that you yourselves have received with joy.

  • Father Szabo Ordained Lifting the Suspension of the Obligation to Attend Sunday & Holy Day Masses
    June 4, 2021 Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston Vol. 52, No. 23 Statement from Bishop Brennan on Father Szabo Ordained Lifting the Suspension of the Obligation to Attend Sunday & Holy Day Masses June 2, 2021 My brothers and sisters in Christ, While God deserves our worship at all times, as our Creator and Redeemer, He Himself has set aside certain days for our common worship. He commanded the He- brews to honor Him one day a week: Re- member to keep holy the sabbath day [Exodus 20:8]. For them, that was Saturday, the last day of the week, and they were forbidden to work on that day. For us Christians, Sunday, the first day of the week, is our weekly holy day, because it is the day when Jesus rose from the dead. Like the Hebrews, we should avoid unneces- sary work and shopping on Sunday (mod- ern conditions can make this nearly impos- sible) but, following the practice of the ear- liest Christians, our principal way of wor- shipping God on Sunday is to gather to cele- brate Mass. After changing bread into his sacred Body and wine into his sacred Blood, Jesus said, Do this in remembrance of me [Luke 22:19]. We respect the Lord’s wishes when we assemble to hear his Word proclaimed and to offer to our Father, together with the priest, the Savior who has made himself present on our altar and who offers himself as food to us in Holy Communion.

  • Pope Promulgates Revised Canon Law on Crimes, Punishments
    Pope promulgates revised canon law on crimes, punishments VATICAN CITY (CNS) — A series of laws and procedures promulgated by now-retired Pope Benedict XVI and, especially, by Pope Francis to protect children, promote the investigation of allegations of clerical sexual abuse and punish offenders are included in a heavily revised section of the Code of Canon Law. The revision of “Book VI: Penal Sanctions in the Church,” one of seven books that make up the code for the Latin rite of the Catholic Church, was promulgated on June 1 and will go into effect Dec. 8, Pope Francis wrote. Rewriting 63 of the book’s 89 canons, the revision addresses a host of issues that have come up in the life of the Church since St. John Paul II promulgated the code in 1983. The descriptions of crimes of sexual abuse, including child pornography, are more explicit, and the required actions of a bishop or superior of a religious order in handling allegations are more stringent. The revised canons also include new references to the attempted ordination of a woman and to a variety of financial crimes; like with the new canons dealing with sexual abuse, they rely on language from laws promulgated separately over the past 20 years. “In the past, much damage has been caused by a failure to perceive the intimate relationship existing in the church between the exercise of charity and recourse — when circumstances and justice require it — to the discipline of sanctions. This way of thinking, as experience has taught us, risks leading to a life of behavior contrary to the discipline of morals, for the remedy of which exhortations or suggestions alone are not sufficient,” Pope Francis wrote inPascite Gregem Dei (“Shepherd God’s Flock”), the apostolic constitution promulgating the changes.
