  • Low-Res-Fourvière and Lyon Booklet-4 Print Ready
    2015 2016 Fourvière Our Lady of Fourvière and Lyon Our Lady of Fourvière and Lyon Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him. He asked them, “What are you discussing together as you walk along?” They stood still, their faces downcast. One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?” “What things?” he asked. “About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place. In addition, some of our women amazed us. They went to the tomb early this morning but didn’t find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus.” He said to them, “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?” And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

  • Historical Sources of Marist Spirituality
    Historical sources of Marist spirituality Br. Michael Green This text comprises a series of articles written in 2020 by Marist historian and spiritual writer, Br Michael Green, on the theme of Marist spirituality. Br Michael takes the six characteristics of our spirituality that are named in ‘Water from the Rock’ and explores their historical and spiritual sources, relating them to the situations of today’s Marists. The articles were written for the Australian online Marist newsletter ‘Christlife’, and were also published in the education journal ‘Champagnat’. Introduction Marcellin Champagnat didn’t know anything about Marist spirituality, or about any kind of spirituality for that matter. What? No, there’s no myth-busting exposé to follow. Please, stay calm and keep reading. The term ‘spirituality’ has not been around for long, just over a hundred years or so. The word, as a noun, would have been unknown to Marcellin. It emerged in France towards the end of the nineteenth century, and grew in common usage in the second half of the twentieth, helped not insignificantly by the assiduous compiling, between 1928 and 1995, of a mammoth ten-volume academic work called the Dictionnaire de Spiritualité. Begun by a small team of French Jesuits, its 1500 contributors came to include many of the leading theologians and masters of the spiritual life of the twentieth century. The concept of ‘spirituality’ (singular and plural) took its place in mainstream religious discourse. Today its breadth and grab is wide, covering not only traditional paths of the Christian spiritual life, but also those of non-Christian traditions, and indeed non-theist ways of experiencing and understanding life and the cosmos.

  • The Blood of Love
    The blood of love The martyrs of Algeria (1994-1996) The Church of Algeria This booklet presents a group of nineteen martyrs of the Church of Algeria. All were passionate about their Church, of which they were zealous servants, and passionate also about Algeria and its people where they had weaved their friendships. Humble and gentle, the Lord radiated from their hearts, in their lives and in their silence. They witnessed to a settled, lucid faith, the faith of those preparing the space for dialogue in their prayer and in their presence. They are a very beautiful image of the Church of Algeria: small, a few thousand faithful people, dispersed in four dioceses: Alger, Oran, Constantine- Ippone et Laghouat. It is a living Church by its poverty as it has lost its social power and pomp. Daily, it lives love and service. Thus purified and without ambitions, it can be a bridgehead for dialogue with Islam.

  • The Source and the Stream
    Saint Marcellin Champagnat and Venerable Brother François THE SOURCE AND THE STREAM WORD OF INTRODUCTION The Source and the Stream is a kind of parallel between our Founder, Marcellin Champagnat (the source), and Brother François who was to be his first successor, “his living portrait”. Our Congregation, under Brother François, experienced an astonishing growth: the source be- came the stream. Father Champagnat and Brother François lived the same story, the same beginnings, shared the same ideal, the same charism, the same journey towards holiness.These pages focus on these two people to- gether so that the Brothers may grow in their affection, enthusiasm and gratitude for them. Though they were two entirely different personalities, they worked together as closely as possible. Holiness is first of all the work of the Spirit who marks each person with patience and intelligence; it is al- so one’s heart and life being overcome by the power of the resurrec- tion of the Lord. But Marcellin and François clearly demonstrate that you can journey towards God using your own natural, different gifts. The style is meant to be light consisting of summaries and short texts. Perhaps these pages can strengthen in our family the custom of ex- tending to our first Brothers and to all the Brothers who have pre- ceded us that same spontaneous and strong affection that we show our Father and Founder, Marcellin Champagnat. Pride in our origins consolidates the present day Marist identity. TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS SAINT MARCELLIN CHAMPAGNAT VENERABLE BROTHER FRANÇOIS Among the blessings deriving from his family, Among the blessings deriving from his family, an exceptional father .

  • Marcellin Champagnat
    Marcellin Champagnat Marcellin Champagnat was the first of the founding people to succeed in forming a Marist group, and his company of Marist Brothers became the fastest growing and the most numerous of the branches of the Marist project. This in itself explains a great deal about this most loveable of characters who did so much for the enterprise in his short life. From beginning to end, Marcellin was a practical person, and everything about him reflects this: the way he understood the ideas exchanged at the seminary, the way he responded to needs, the way he formed his Brothers. Much of this can be traced to his background. His mother was a woman of strong and robust faith, who more than once accompanied Marcellin on foot to the shrine of St Francis Regis at La Louvesc, when difficulties threatened his seminary studies. Marcellin's father was a farmer, who could turn his hand to many other trades as well. Marcellin was a child of the Revolution in more than one sense. He was born in the year of the Revolution, May 20,1789. As well as that, his father welcomed the Revolution and from the start accepted its principles as a way to help the Many portraits and statues have been people. "Our rights were unknown, we have made of Marcellin Champagnat. But three discovered them," he said as Colonel of the National statues are of particular significance, not only Guard. "The new Constitution is written, now we because they are in places of historical must support it." As an official under Revolutionary importance forthe Brothers - Marlhes, La Valla, and the Hermitage - but also because they are governments, he was required to preside at the carved from rock.
