Bishop John Cunningham of Gal- loway said it was extremely ‘sad’ that the Whithorn Trust, which runs the Whithorn museum and visitor centre and promotes the archaeology and heritage of the site where St Ninian established a church in 397 AD, is facing an £18,500 shortfall that means it may have to close its doors in August. Bishop Cunningham, whose diocese holds an annual pilgrimage to Whithorn, said the trust did a ‘wonderful’ job. “As bishop of the Diocese of Gal- loway I am very aware of the important contribution that the Whithorn Trust has made in maintaining and promoting the traditions of Whithorn,” he said. “The area is such an important part of our Fr David Borland, parish priest at St Andrew’s, Dumfries, led 48 parishioners on pilgrimage to Iona to mark the 200th anniversary of their parish opening (see page 5), sup- Christian heritage, and the trust has done ported by Fr Joe Holmes of Annan.

    Faith Formation Resource to Welcome Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin As the Sixth Archbishop of Newark

    1 Faith Formation Resource to Welcome Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin as the Sixth Archbishop of Newark This catechetical tool is available for use throughout the Archdiocese of Newark to provide resources for catechists to seize this teachable and historical moment. The objectives are listed by grade level and were taken from the Catechetical Curriculum Guidelines for the Archdiocese of Newark. Let us keep our new Archbishop in prayer. Kindergarten Focus - Many Signs of God’s Love Scripture – Genesis 1:31 – God looked at everything He had made, and found it very good. Objective: To help children grow in their understanding of the People of God as God’s family and as a sign of God’s love. Some ideas: o Share pictures of your parish pastor, Cardinal Tobin, and Pope Francis; Explain that they each serve God and our Catholic family in a special way, and Cardinal Tobin is now serving God in a special way as our new Archbishop. o Point out the Scarlet red color as a sign of being a Cardinal o Use the Cardinal and Pope Craft for Catholic Kids activity o Pray for Cardinal Tobin and the Archdiocese of Newark. For discussion: o Does God love us very much? (Yes) o How much does God love us? (Spread your arms wide to show how big God’s love is) o Because God loves us, He sends us good people to lead us in our Church, like Cardinal Tobin, our new Archbishop. o Let’s pray for Cardinal Tobin, and give thanks to God for His love.

    045-San Nicola in Carcere

    (045/43) San Nicola in Carcere San Nicola in Carcere (St Nicholas in Prison) is a 16th century titular church and a minor basilica, and is also the regional church for those from Puglia and Lucania living in Rome. The basilica isnear the Forum Boarium in rione Ripa. The church is dedicated to St Nicholas of Myra, the patron saint of sailors and of children and the remote cause of the phenomenon of Santa Claus. His shrine is at Bari which is why this church is the national church for those who moved from Puglia and Lucania to Rome. [1] [4] The reference to ‘Prison’ is obscure. 'In carcere' probably refers to a tradition, supported by Pliny's history of Rome, that there was once a prison here, built in the ruins of the temples. [1] History Perhaps the most interesting thing about the church is that it incorporates the remains of three temples of the Republican era (2nd century BC) which used to stand in a row, side by side in the ancient Forum Holitorium (a vegetable market) with their entrances facing east. How the three temples became a church is a process which is completely obscure. [1] The northernmost was dedicated to Janus, and had two rows of six Ionic columns of peperino at the entrance and eight down each side. Two survive to the north, and seven to the south embedded with their architrave in the church's north wall. Well-preseved parts of the podium also survive in the crypt. The site of the middle temple is occupied by the church; it was dedicated to Juno Sospita and was in the Ionic style.

  • Pope Creates 13 New Cardinals, Including Washington Archbishop

    Pope Creates 13 New Cardinals, Including Washington Archbishop

    Pope creates 13 new cardinals, including Washington archbishop VATICAN CITY (CNS) — One by one 11 senior churchmen, including two U.S. citizens — Cardinals Wilton D. Gregory of Washington and Silvano M. Tomasi, a former Vatican diplomat — knelt before Pope Francis to receive their red hats, a cardinal’s ring and a scroll formally declaring their new status and assigning them a “titular” church in Rome. But with the consistory Nov. 28 occurring during the COVID-19 pandemic, Pope Francis actually created 13 new cardinals. Cardinals Jose F. Advincula of Capiz, Philippines, and Cornelius Sim, apostolic vicar of Brunei, did not attend the consistory because of COVID-19 travel restrictions; however, they are officially cardinals and will receive their birettas and rings at a later date, the Vatican said. In his homily at the prayer service, Pope Francis told the new cardinals that “the scarlet of a cardinal’s robes, which is the color of blood, can, for a worldly spirit, become the color of a secular ’eminence,'” the traditional title of respect for a cardinal. If that happens, he said, “you will no longer be a pastor close to your people. You will think of yourself only as ‘His Eminence.’ If you feel that, you are off the path.” For the cardinals, the pope said, the red must symbolize a wholehearted following of Jesus, who willingly gave his life on the cross to save humanity. The Gospel reading at the service, Mark 10:32-45, included the account of James and John asking Jesus for special honors. “Grant that in your glory we may sit one at your right and the other at your left,” they said.

Holley, D.D., Titular Bishop of Rusubisir and Auxiliary to the Archbishop of Washington: Blazon (heraldic description): Quarterly gules (red) and azure (blue), a plow argent (silver), on a chief wavy or (gold), a fleur-de-lis azure. Motto: His Mercy Endures (Psalm 107:1) Explanation: The arms of Bishop Holley consist of a quartered shield (red and blue,) charged with a plow (silver, white.) The chief or upper portion of the shield is tinctured gold (yellow), the base wavy. The chief is charged with a blue fleur-de-lis. The colors red and blue have long been associated in the west and in heraldry with Our Lord and the Blessed Virgin. The silver (white) plow recalls the admonishment of Our Lord to those who put their hand to the plow (Luke 9:62) and especially in the matter of priestly vocation. The plow centered in the quarter shield emphasizes the priestly life focused on the cross. A further significance of the plow is in its commemorating Bishop Holley's forebears on the maternal side of the family who were sharecroppers; among their crops, they raised cotton, hence the silver (white) tincture of the plow. http://www.thefloridacatholic.org/articles/2004/040708/040708-pt-coatofarmsmotto.htm 3/3/2006 The Florida Catholic - Bishop Martin D.
