At the same time Don Gaspar de Portola, leader of Mexico’s military expedition, claimed Alta California (the present State of California), for Spain. The mission, ultimately a part of a chain of twenty-one historic California Spanish missions stretching from San Diego to Sonoma, assumed primary importance. Spain decreed Monterey as the capital of California and established a presidio, or military outpost, for protection against encroachment from other national powers. San Carlos Borromeo Mission, like the other missions, was a religious center established for the conversion and education of Native Americans. Friction between the mission and the presidio, generated by Serra’s dispute over military treatment of the indigenous people, resulted in Father Serra’s relocation of the mission to a site near Carmel Bay on August 24, 1771. There the Mission of San Carlos de Carmelo became the headquarters for the rest of his California missionary work. Pope John Paul II beatified Father Serra in 1988. He was canonized a Saint on September 23, 2015, at Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception by Pope Francis. He is buried in the floor of the sanctuary of Carmel Mission Basilica. The Holy See erected the Diocese of Both Californias on April 27, 1840, and named Francisco Garcia Diego y Moreno as bishop. In 1849 the Diocese of Both Californias was renamed the Diocese of Monterey and Joseph Alemany was named bishop. Later Baja California was separated from Monterey and the original Diocese of Monterey was divided with a new province established in San Francisco. More changes followed as California grew. The Diocese of Monterey-Los Angeles was divided with the creation of the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno in 1924. Finally the current Diocese of Monterey was created in 1967 and encompasses four Central Coast counties of Monterey, Santa Cruz, San Benito, and San Luis Obispo. Bishop Daniel Garcia, the fifth bishop of the Diocese of Monterey, leads the people Mission San Carlos Borromeo circa 1870. From the of the diocese in an ever deeper appreciation and activation of the “grace upon Ed Grabhorn’s Collection San Francisco, California grace” that has always sustained the people of God of the Diocese of Monterey.

February 2010 Volume 2, Number 1 Order of the Most Holy Mary Theotokos (Ordo Sanctissimae Theotokos, O.SS.T.) What Lent Means to Me Lent is a season of soul-searching and repentance. It is a season for reflection and taking stock. Lent originated in the very earliest days of the Church as a preparatory time for Easter, when the faithful rededicated themselves and when converts were instructed in the faith and prepared for baptism. By observing the forty days of Lent, the individual Christian imitates Jesus’ withdrawal into the wilderness for forty days. All churches that have a continuous history extending before AD 1500 observe Lent. The ancient church that wrote, collected, canonized, and propagated the New Testament also observed Lent, believing it to be a commandment from the apostles. “Remember that you are dust, and Christians throughout history have found prayer, fasting, and almsgiving to be to dust you shall the building blocks of Lenten spiritual growth. Lenten reflection acknowledges the brokenness of our lives and in our world and encourages us to find return.” repentance through Christ. A Reflection on where God is in our world. In our busy lives it can become easy to think that God doesn’t exist – or that he is not in our lives. It is important for us to slow down and listen for God in our world this Lent. And remember, while Lent is about giving something up, it is also about putting something positive in its place.

The appointments were publicized in Washington September 21, by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, apostolic nuncio to the United States. Kevin Vann was born May 10, 1951, in Springfield, Illinois and was ordained a priest for the diocese of Springfield in 1981. He earned a doctorate in canon law in 1985 from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas (Angelicum) in Rome. In the Springfield Diocese he served as associate pastor, pastor, and on the staff of the diocesan tribunal.

The most significant of its restrictions is that “Places of worship must limit attendance to 25% of building capacity or a maximum of 100 attendees, whichever is lower. This limitation will be in effect for the first 21-days of a county public health department’s approval of religious services … at places of worship within their jurisdictions.”.” In subsequent weekly meetings with the Pastors and Business Managers of the Parishes of the Diocese, our Bishop, Most Rev. Kevin Vann, has made it abundantly clear that his over-riding interest is in protecting the Common Good, that is, in the health and welfare of our parishioners, especially “the weakest among us,” our Seniors and those with underlying health conditions. Further, Bishop Vann has made it clear that he is not being guided by politics of any kind, but rather and above all by the medical experts at the world-class St.

Further, I would like to express my gratitude towards them for their continual dedication to the Sheffield Hallam Law department. Abstract This thesis aims to explore why torture, deemed illegitimate by the Western world for more than a century, has resurfaced as a topic of debate, and persists despite its formal prohibition. It also endeavours to shed light on the main issues involved in the ‘torture debate’. To do so, it begins by exploring the history of torture; examining how it has developed over time, and how its uses have changed.

    STATEMENT on the APPOINTMENT of BISHOP JAIME SOTO AS COADJUTOR BISHOP of SACRAMENTO by Bishop William K

    STATEMENT ON THE APPOINTMENT OF BISHOP JAIME SOTO AS COADJUTOR BISHOP OF SACRAMENTO by Bishop William K. Weigand Bishop of Sacramento October 11, 2007 I am grateful and delighted to announce that Pope Benedict XVI has appointed Auxiliary Bishop Jaime Soto, of the Diocese of Orange, as Coadjutor Bishop of Sacramento. As Bishop Soto prepares to help me to serve the People of God in the Diocese of Sacramento, I extend to him my heartfelt welcome to the Diocese and assure him of the prayers of all our people. I have known Bishop Soto for a number of years and have observed his good work. It pleases me to know that Bishop Soto will be helping me to shepherd this vast 20-county diocese. As Coadjutor, Bishop Soto, in due course, will succeed me as Diocesan Bishop. Bishop Soto, 51 years of age, is a native of Southern California and comes to us with very fine qualifications. He was ordained a priest in 1982 for the Diocese of Orange. He completed advanced studies at Columbia University in New York, where he obtained his Masters in Social Work (MSW) in 1986. In 1986, he was appointed Director of Catholic Charities of Orange and Vicar for Hispanics in 1989. In 1990, Bishop Soto was granted the title Monsignor by Pope John Paul II , who also appointed him Auxiliary Bishop of Orange in 2000, to assist Bishop Tod Brown. Bishop Soto is well known for his care and concern for people. I look forward to his serving beside me and with the many other dedicated priests, religious, and lay faithful here in Northern California.
