    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD

    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD Christ Church was founded in 1546, and there had been a college here since 1525, but prior to the Dissolution of the monasteries, the site was occupied by a priory dedicated to the memory of St Frideswide, the patron saint of both university and city. St Frideswide, a noble Saxon lady, founded a nunnery for herself as head and for twelve more noble virgin ladies sometime towards the end of the seventh century. She was, however, pursued by Algar, prince of Leicester, for her hand in marriage. She refused his frequent approaches which became more and more desperate. Frideswide and her ladies, forewarned miraculously of yet another attempt by Algar, fled up river to hide. She stayed away some years, settling at Binsey, where she performed healing miracles. On returning to Oxford, Frideswide found that Algar was as persistent as ever, laying siege to the town in order to capture his bride. Frideswide called down blindness on Algar who eventually repented of his ways, and left Frideswide to her devotions. Frideswide died in about 737, and was canonised in 1480. Long before this, though, pilgrims came to her shrine in the priory church which was now populated by Augustinian canons. Nothing remains of Frideswide’s nunnery, and little - just a few stones - of the Saxon church but the cathedral and the buildings around the cloister are the oldest on the site. Her story is pictured in cartoon form by Burne-Jones in one of the windows in the cathedral. One of the gifts made to the priory was the meadow between Christ Church and the Thames and Cherwell rivers; Lady Montacute gave the land to maintain her chantry which lay in the Lady Chapel close to St Frideswide’s shrine.

    1700 Faculties

    Book IV The Sanctifying Office of the Church Part I Sacramental Life §1700 FACULTIES The following faculties or permissions apply to all priests who are in good standing and who are incardinated in the Diocese or who have been approved by the Bishop to minister within the Diocese, even if they may be retired. In a spirit of trust and in keeping with the principle of subsidiarity, every effort has been made to extend the discretionary authority of priests in the exercise of their ministry. Whatever special faculties or permissions have been given to pastors apply also to parochial administrators (c. 540, §1). These faculties and permissions are effective August 15, 1986 and remain in effect until revoked. Special Note The information contained in this section is, in many cases, repetitious of that in previous sections and has been included here for purposes of quick reference. Users are encouraged to consult specific sections for a more complete statement of Diocesan Policy and Procedures regarding sacramental matters. §1701 BAPTISM1 1701.1. Faculty To baptize those who are fourteen years of age or older. Procedures a) Canon 862 provides that outside the case of necessity, it is not lawful to confer baptism in the territory of another without permission. b) Without this faculty it would be necessary to refer such cases to the diocesan bishop (c. 863). c) As a rule, an adult is to be baptized in his or her own parish church (c. 857, §2). d) The sacrament of baptism is not to be conferred outside a legitimate canonically erected parish church or chapel, except in the case of necessity (c.

    Exarch Josif I (1840-1915) (Real Name Lazar Yovchev) Is a Distinguished Bulgarian Orthodox Cleric

    Exarch Josif I (1840-1915) (real name Lazar Yovchev) is a distinguished Bulgarian Orthodox cleric. He was Bishop of Vidin, Metropolitan of the Lovech Diocese and Bulgarian Exarch – Head of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. Lazar Yovchev was born on the 5 of May 1840 in the enlightened town of Kalopher at the foot of the Balkan mountain. Studious and curious student during the primary school, he later became a teaching assistant of Botio Petkov, well known teacher in Kalopher and abroad. Supported by affuent Kalopher citizens living in Tzarigrad (Istanbul) he continued his studies in the Grand People’s School in Fener (in Turkish - Fener Rum Erkek Lisesi) and later in the French College (Tzarigrad). With the fnancial help of the Kalopher community he enrolled in 1864 in the prestigious Literary Faculty of the Sorbonne University (Paris). After three years study there he transferred to the Law School of the same university, which he graduated with a Bachelor degree and license to practice law. After six years in France, Lazar Yovchev returns to Tzarigrad and works at the Central Court of Commerce. In the same time he is active in political journalism and translation. He became a Board Member of the Macedonian Bulgarian Union (Makedonska Bylgarska Drujina). He was also invited to become a Secretary of the Joined Exarchate Council (Smesen Exarchiiski Syvet). Thanks to respect and popularity and without a formal ecclesiastical education, in 1872 the newly ordained monk becomes Coadjutor of the Exarch (equal to a Bishop reverence) under the monk name Yossif. In the next 3-4 years Bishop Yossif actively participates in the organization of the newly independent Bulgarian Church, travels the Bulgarian lands, meets representatives of the Great Powers, owing to his excellence in French, but mostly because of his ability to negotiate and persuade.

    Antigua and Barbuda an Annotated Critical Bibliography

    Antigua and Barbuda an annotated critical bibliography by Riva Berleant-Schiller and Susan Lowes, with Milton Benjamin Volume 182 of the World Bibliographical Series 1995 Clio Press ABC Clio, Ltd. (Oxford, England; Santa Barbara, California; Denver, Colorado) Abstract: Antigua and Barbuda, two islands of Leeward Island group in the eastern Caribbean, together make up a single independent state. The union is an uneasy one, for their relationship has always been ambiguous and their differences in history and economy greater than their similarities. Barbuda was forced unwillingly into the union and it is fair to say that Barbudan fears of subordination and exploitation under an Antiguan central government have been realized. Barbuda is a flat, dry limestone island. Its economy was never dominated by plantation agriculture. Instead, its inhabitants raised food and livestock for their own use and for provisioning the Antigua plantations of the island's lessees, the Codrington family. After the end of slavery, Barbudans resisted attempts to introduce commercial agriculture and stock-rearing on the island. They maintained a subsistence and small cash economy based on shifting cultivation, fishing, livestock, and charcoal-making, and carried it out under a commons system that gave equal rights to land to all Barbudans. Antigua, by contrast, was dominated by a sugar plantation economy that persisted after slave emancipation into the twentieth century. Its economy and goals are now shaped by the kind of high-impact tourism development that includes gambling casinos and luxury hotels. The Antiguan government values Barbuda primarily for its sparsely populated lands and comparatively empty beaches. This bibliography is the only comprehensive reference book available for locating information about Antigua and Barbuda.

Perry Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.law.stjohns.edu/tcl Part of the Religion Law Commons This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Journals at St. John's Law Scholarship Repository. It has been accepted for inclusion in The Catholic Lawyer by an authorized editor of St. John's Law Scholarship Repository. For more information, please contact [email protected]. RIGHTS IN CANON LAW FOR PERSONS WITH MENTAL DISABILITIES REV. JOSEPH N. PERRY* INTRODUCTION The Code of Canon Law (the "Code") continues to meet with genu- ine interest amidst various groupings in the Church. Its translation into the vernacular certainly evokes curiosity about the opportunities for Christian life and service offered in the various books of the Code. The Catholic Church has a venerable history of care for people who are in any way differently advantaged. Long before the medical and be- havioral sciences made inroads into retardation and long before special education became an art, church men and women, many of them founders of religious orders, pioneered skills and strategy with people of disabilities who are often misunderstood and excluded from society. Ministry to special people parallels, in many respects, the expanded social consciousness of our time. All kinds of so-called minority groups are asserting their rightful place in the fabric of society and religion. In the wake of the civil rights struggle, our society enjoys a heightened sense of social inclusion that involves a new responsiveness to the mentally, physically and emotionally disabled.

    Bishop William T. Mccarty, C.Ss.R. Papers

    Bishop William T. McCarty, C.Ss.R. Papers Baltimore Province of the Redemptorists Archives 7509 Shore Road Brooklyn, New York 11209-2807 The scope of the papers of Bishop William T. McCarty, C.Ss.R., a member of the Baltimore Province of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer, encompasses letters, manuscripts (including memoirs), notebooks, articles, news clippings, and photographs, dating from c. 1889 to as late as 1973, the year following his death. The collection is especially important—however partial—for research on the history of the Catholic Church in Rapid City, South Dakota, and for his activities as the Military Delegate. Of particular interest are the numbers of items related to the Indian missions. The entirety of the collection is open to qualified researchers. Consultation of these materials will be at the discretion of the Province Archivist. Biography: William Tiburtus (sometimes Tiburtius; in his own autobiography it is Tiburtus) McCarty was born August 11, 1889, on a farm a short distance from Crossingville, Pennsylvania, to Timothy C. and Margaret (neé Burns) McCarty. At birth he weighed a mere 3 pounds and the midwife baptized him on the spot. The next Sunday, however, a more formal, though conditional, baptism took place in the Church of St. Philip in Crossingville, where his parents had been married in September 1875. He was the third and last of the couple’s three children, which included Maryanne and Frank. Three brothers predeceased William—John, Jeremiah, and James—all of whom died in infancy. From 1880 until her death in 1891, his mother was an invalid who could barely get out of bed.

    The Bishop of London, Colonialism and Transatlantic Slavery

    The Bishop of London, colonialism and transatlantic slavery: Research brief for a temporary exhibition, spring 2022 and information to input into permanent displays Introduction Fulham Palace is one of the earliest and most intriguing historic powerhouses situated alongside the Thames and the last one to be fully restored. It dates back to 704AD and for over thirteen centuries was owned by the Bishop of London. The Palace site is of exceptional archaeological interest and has been a scheduled monument since 1976. The buildings are listed as Grade I and II. The 13 acres of botanical gardens, with plant specimens introduced here from all over the world in the late 17th century, are Grade II* listed. Fulham Palace Trust has run the site since 2011. We are restoring it to its former glory so that we can fulfil our vision to engage people of all ages and from all walks of life with the many benefits the Palace and gardens have to offer. Our site-wide interpretation, inspired learning and engagement programmes, and richly-textured exhibitions reveal insights, through the individual stories of the Bishops of London, into over 1,300 years of English history. In 2019 we completed a £3.8m capital project, supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, to restore and renew the historic house and garden. The Trust opens the Palace and gardens seven days a week free of charge. In 2019/20 we welcomed 340,000 visitors. We manage a museum, café, an award-winning schools programme (engaging over 5,640 pupils annually) and we stage a wide range of cultural events.
