    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Missa Chrismatis: A Liturgical Theology A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Sacred Theology © Copyright All rights reserved By Seth Nater Arwo-Doqu Washington, DC 2013 The Missa Chrismatis: A Liturgical Theology Seth Nater Arwo-Doqu, S.T.D. Director: Kevin W. Irwin, S.T.D. The Missa Chrismatis (“Chrism Mass”), the annual ritual Mass that celebrates the blessing of the sacramental oils ordinarily held on Holy Thursday morning, was revised in accordance with the decrees of Vatican II and promulgated by the authority of Pope Paul VI and inserted in the newly promulgated Missale Romanum in 1970. Also revised, in tandem with the Missa Chrismatis, is the Ordo Benedicendi Oleum Catechumenorum et Infirmorum et Conficiendi Chrisma (Ordo), and promulgated editio typica on December 3, 1970. Based upon the scholarly consensus of liturgical theologians that liturgical events are acts of theology, this study seeks to delineate the liturgical theology of the Missa Chrismatis by applying the method of liturgical theology proposed by Kevin Irwin in Context and Text. A critical study of the prayers, both ancient and new, for the consecration of Chrism and the blessing of the oils of the sick and of catechumens reveals rich theological data. In general it can be said that the fundamental theological principle of the Missa Chrismatis is initiatory and consecratory. The study delves into the history of the chrismal liturgy from its earliest foundations as a Mass in the Gelasianum Vetus, including the chrismal consecration and blessing of the oils during the missa in cena domini, recorded in the Hadrianum, Ordines Romani, and Pontificales Romani of the Middle Ages, through the reforms of 1955-56, 1965 and, finally, 1970.

  • Why the New Rite of Episcopal Consecration Is Valid Fr
    ANGELUSTHE MAGAZINE REPRINT WHY THE NEW RITE OF EPISCOPAL CONSECRATION IS VALID Fr. Pierre-Marie, O.P. This article wishes to settle a debate that has been circulating in traditional Catholic circles. Some writers have examined the new rite of episcopal consecration and concluded that it must be invalid. Since this would cause manifest prob- lems if it were true and due to the heightened awareness of such a theory, The Angelus presents (for the first time in English) a study of this question concluding that it is valid. 2 This article was translated exclusively by Angelus Press from Sel de la Terre (No.54., Autumn 2005, pp.72-129). Fr. Pierre-Marie, O.P., is a member of the traditional Dominican monastery at Avrillé, France, several of whose members were ordained by Archbishop Lefebvre and which continues to receive its priestly ordinations from the bishops serving the Society of Saint Pius X which Archbishop Lefebvre founded. He is a regular contributor to their quarterly review, Sel de la Terre (Salt of the Earth). The English translations contained in the various tables were prepared with the assistance of H.E. Bishop Richard Williamson, Dr. Andrew Senior (professor at St. Mary’s College, St. Mary’s, Kansas), and Fr. Scott Gardner, SSPX. ollowing the Council, in 1968 a new rite for Orders or is merely “a sacramental,” an ecclesiastical the ordination of bishops was promulgated. ceremony wherein the powers of the episcopate, It was, in fact, the first sacrament to undergo its “bound” in the simple priest, are “freed” for the “aggiornamento,” or updating.

  • History of Saint Agnes
    Preface A hundred years in the life of a man or woman is a long time. In the existence of institutions, especially the Church, a hundred years is as yesterday. But it is good to mark the passing of time, such as a hundred years, and occasionally to look back and assess the events that have occurred, the people who have lived, and the things that have been accomplished. A history of a parish needs be a chronicle of events to a large extent. Judgment on those events is not always possible or necessary and perhaps not even wise. The important thing is that the events and the facts of the past hundred years be recorded as clearly and precisely as possible so that someday someone may wish to have them and use them. Colligite fragmenta ne pereant (Collect the fragments lest they be lost). An old Latin adage says Nemo est judex in causa sua (No one is a judge in his own case). With that in mind, I freely submit that the events chronicled here from 1969 to the present have passed through the judgment of the author, who is the pastor whose time of tenure is being described. I have tried to give a fair picture. Another writer can make the judgment if he so chooses. Monsignor Richard J. Schuler Chapter 1 EUROPE IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Europe in the second half of the nineteenth century was still living under the effects of the French Revolution, the wars of Napoleon and the rise of liberalism. The unification of Germany and the Risorgimento in Italy had caused grave problems for the Church, and the power and the prestige of the papacy had suffered from these political events.

THE CATHEDRAL BUILDER The Dedicatory Service of our new Cathedral is the fruition of the hopes and aspirations of clergy and laity during the past seventy'five years. In those days our people were poor in material things and they could scarcely foresee the prosperity that would come to our beloved America and to their children. Our priests were few, poor and overwhelmed with the manifold duties incidental not only to keeping alive the spark of faith in their people, but also the urgent necessity of providing churches, schools and institutions. Our Diocesan History reveals the fact that quite frequently when a pastor had completed his material labors, death claimed him, and another enjoyed the fruits of his priestly endeavors for God and for His Church. The Catholic Church throughout the ages has been the Mother of the Arts and Sciences. Many of the greatest achievements in music, poetry, painting, architecture, literature and sculpture have received their in' spiration from, and their exemplification in, the great Cathedrals and Churches of the past. Genius is never satisfied with the mere ability to create, but craves and demands the opportunity, and a field, for the exhibition of its talents.
