    «WAKE UP THE WORLD!» Conversation with Pope Francis about the Religious Life Antonio Spadaro, S.J. original text in Italian (La Civiltà Cattolica 2014 I 3-17) translated into English by Fr. Donald Maldari S.J. (revised, Jan 6) @La Civiltà Cattolica 9:25 a.m. The New Hall of the Synod in the Vatican When Pope Francis speaks “off the cuff” and dialogs, his speech has a certain rhythm that “undulates” progressively; one would do well to follow it with care because it is fed by the living relations he experiences with his interlocutors. Those who notice should pay careful attention not only to the contents of what he says but also to the dynamic of the relationship that is created. This is what happened during the conversation that the Holy Father held with the Union of Superiors General of religious men at the end of their 82nd General Assembly.1 Seated among them I took note of the dialog. I will here try to express as far as possible the richness of the contents, preserving the lively and spontaneous tone of the three hour meeting. Halfway through the meeting, for a half hour, the Pope circulated among the participants to greet the Superiors General personally, taking a mate in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. The Superiors had, in fact, requested only a brief meeting to greet the Pope, but the Pontiff wished to spend the whole morning with them. 1 The Assembly took place from November 27 to 29 at the Salesianum in Rome. It consisted of a meeting based on three experiences that guided the reflections that followed.

  • El Padre Llorente: Un Misionero Español En Alaska
    EL PADRE LLORENTE: UN MISIONERO ESPAÑOL EN ALASKA En los Estados Unidos, en Desmet, en el estado de Idaho, en las Montañas Rocosas, está enterrado un jesuita español, en un cementerio que acoge los restos de misioneros que vivieron y trabajaron con los indios al menos durante 20 años. Nuestro protagonista no vivió con los indios de esta zona, pero se le concedió este privilegio por haber pasado 40 años de su vida entre los esquimales de Alaska. En el año 2006 se celebró el centenario del nacimiento del jesuita Segundo Llorente, misionero en Alaska. Este español universal, leonés de nacimiento, pasó su vida anunciando el evangelio entre los esquimales. Escribió varias obras: En el país de los eternos hielos (1939), En las lomas del Polo Norte (1942), Aventureros del Círculo Polar (1942), De la desembocadura del Yukón (1948), Crónicas Alakureñas (1948), A orillas del Kusko (1951), En las costas del mar de Bering (1951), Trineos y eskimales (1957), Así son los eskimales (1963), 28 años en Alaska (1963), Memoirs of a Yukon Priest (1990). Esta última sí que la escribió como libro, pero sus primeros escritos no eran libros, sino artículos que iba enviando a «El Siglo de las Misiones», revista que se publicaba en Bilbao: dado el éxito que tenían los artículos, no sólo en España, se pensó en recopilar los artículos en varios libros. Éste es el origen de la mayoría de las obras del padre Llorente. Escribió también numerosísimas cartas, a causa de la ingente correspondencia que recibía y que, en circunstancias ordinarias, procuraba responder. La obra escrita en inglés se publicó una vez muerto: sus superiores en los Estados Unidos le habían pedido que escribiera sus memorias, pues eran un testimonio excepcional, como misionero católico y como «pionero» de Alaska.

  • St. Francis Xavier Parish in Kotzebue Celebrates 75 Years
    Volume 42 Number 5 June-July 2004 Some give by going to the Missions Some go by giving to the Missions Without both there are no Missions ST. FRANCIS XAVIER PARISH IN KOTZEBUE CELEBRATES 75 YEARS St. Francis Xavier Church as it appeared before the building of a seperate bell tower, standing now to the left of the Church. Editors Note: This article is indebted to a considerable extent to writings by Father Louis L. Renner, S.J. When spring approaches, past Missionaries in Kotzebue will surely recall the “wall of ice” along Kotzebue Sound and how the floes take on the appearance of crystal and the sound of tinkling glass, as they float by each other, and how sometimes, a caribou or some other animal becomes stranded on the moving ice. They will see the cemetery emerge from under an average 25 inches of snow and become almost immediately adorned with brightly colored flowers. They will remember the kindness of the Inupiat people. They will hear the bell in the tower announcing Mass at the 75 year-old St. Francis Xavier Church. Kotzebue, population 3,082, an Inupiat Eskimo town about 25 miles above the Arctic Circle on the northwest shore of the Baldwin Peninsula in Kotzebue Sound, became a permanent settlement in 1897, when a reindeer station was located there. Before that, Eskimos had used the site as a summer fish camp. The Kotzebue post office was established in 1899. That same year the Society of Friends (Quakers) founded a mission at Kotzebue. Father Paschal Tosi, S.J., had already visited Kotzebue Sound in March 1895 with a view to establishing a mission there at first opportunity.
