Matthew 5:7 Holding up a copy of "Hustler" magazine, former FBI agent William Kelly showed the women, most of whom are grandmothers and mothers, the color photograph of a mock crucifixion of a woman. "The biggest purchasers of these porn magazines are the 12-17 year- olds," Kelly told the audience, many of whom registered surprise at his statement. Pornography was only one of the many topics addressed by more than 200 women who attended the seventh bicnnal conference of the Florida Council of Catholic Women at the Konover Hotel in Miami Beach last week. The women from around the state also listened to experts on migrant labor, pro-life, and family life, during two days of presentations on the theme, "Peace in Today's World."

    Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church

    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.

    MARY JOSEPH ROGERS Mother Mary Joseph Rogers Founded the Maryknoll Sisters, the First American-Based Catholic Foreign Missions Society for Women

    MARY JOSEPH ROGERS Mother Mary Joseph Rogers founded the Maryknoll Sisters, the first American-based Catholic foreign missions society for women. Mary Josephine Rogers, called “Mollie” by her family, was born Oct. 27, 1882, in Roxbury, Massachusetts. After graduating from Smith College, Northampton, Massachusetts, she earned her teaching certificate. Mary taught for several years at Smith College, followed by teaching assignments in several public elementary and high schools in the Boston area. Interest in Foreign Missions Mary was deeply impacted by the flourishing Protestant Student Volunteer Movement that was sending missionaries around the world. In 1908, due to her growing interest in missionary work, she began volunteering her time to assist Father James Walsh in writing and editing the Catholic Foreign Missionary Society of America’s magazine Field Afar, now known as Maryknoll. In September 1910 at the International Eucharistic Congress in Montreal, Canada, Mary realized she shared a passion to develop a foreign missions society based in the United States with Father Walsh and Father Thomas Frederick Price. As a result of this common vision, they founded the Maryknoll Mission Movement. Mary provided assistance to the group from Boston where she had family responsibilities before finally joining them in September 1912. She was given the formal name, “Mary Joseph.” She founded a lay group of women interested in missions known as the Teresians, named after the 16th Century Spanish Catholic nun St. Teresa of Avila. In 1913, both the male and female societies moved to Ossining, New York to a farm renamed “Maryknoll.” The pope recognized the work of the Teresians in 1920, allowing the growing society to be designated as a diocesan religious congregation, officially the Foreign Mission Sisters of St.

    Volume 24, Issue 3 — September 8, 2019 September 8, 2019 Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary To the Members of the United States Association of Consecrated Virgins, One of the greatest challenges of celibates and virgins is to realize the primordial challenge from God that we be fertile and multiply. For us, the first part of responding to this challenge is to imagine how this is even possible. Obviously, this will be accomplished as a spiritual fecundity. Our life of prayer for the Church and the world, both in general and in particular is a primary way to fulfill this duty. Are there other ways? This will depend on our method of “living in the world.” Whatever it is that we do, be it Church work or completely secular labor, there we encounter fertile soil. Each of us then must determine how best we can help the Word of God take root, both by our example and by our words. God will give the increase, but we must plant seeds. Fecundity of any kind should always be the Inside this Issue Page result of love and therefore love is the primary seed which we Something Ancient - will plant.

  • The Catholic Church in China: a New Chapter

    The Catholic Church in China: a New Chapter

    The Catholic Church in China: A New Chapter PETER FLEMING SJ with ISMAEL ZULOAGA SJ Throughout the turbulent history of Christianity in China, Christians have never numbered more than one per cent of China's total population, but Christianity has never died in China as many predicted it eventually would. One could argue that Christianity's influence in China has been greater than the proportion of its Christians might warrant. Some have argued that Christianity became strong when Chinese governments were weak: What we seem to be witnessing today in China, however, is a renewal of Christianity under a vital communist regime. That Christianity is in some ways becoming stronger today under a communist regime than it was before the communists is an irony of history which highlights both the promise and the burden of Christianity's presence in China. Today China is no less important in the history of Christianity than she was during Francis Xavier's or Matteo Ricci's time. There are one billion Chinese in China today and 25 million overseas Chinese. These numbers alone tell us of China's influence on and beneficial role for the future and the part that a culturally indigenous Chinese Christianity might play in that future. There is a new look about China today. What does Christianity look like? What has it looked like in the past? The promise and burden of history The Nestorians first brought Christianity to China in the seventh century. The Franciscans John of PIano Carpini and John of Montecorvino followed them in the 13th century.

    CHAPTER 7 Adjustment and Advocacy: Charles McCarthy, SJ, and China’s Jesuit Mission in Transition Amanda C. R. Clark Introduction Charles J. McCarthy, SJ (1911–1991), travelled to China “for life,” as was expected of all Jesuit missionaries living abroad in the early twentieth century [figure 7.1]. Commissioned never to abandon his flock and to more closely identify with the people of his mission field, and to adapt to their customs, loves, and be- liefs, the missionary in China took his post until death.1 Catholic publications in the West indulged in an almost propagandistic program of representa- tion, depicting missionaries living in poverty in far-off jungle or desert lands, Figure 7.1 Father Charles J.

This chapter examines the transition from mission Church to indigenous Church through the pivotal life of the Jesuit China missionary, Charles McCarthy.

  • Missiological Reflections on the Maryknoll Centenary

    Missiological Reflections on the Maryknoll Centenary

    Missiological Reflections on the Maryknoll Centenary: Maryknoll Missiologists’ Colloquium, June 2011 This year Maryknoll celebrates its founding as the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America. In the early 1900s, the idea of founding a mission seminary in the United States circulated among the members of the Catholic Missionary Union. Archbishop John Farley of New York had suggested the establishment of such a seminary, and also tried to entice the Paris Foreign Mission Society to open an American branch. Finally, two diocesan priests, Fathers James Anthony Walsh and Thomas Frederick Price, having gained a mandate to create a mission seminary from the archbishops of the United States, travelled to Rome and received Pope Pius X’s permission to do so. The date was June 29, 1911, the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul. In the years since, well over a thousand Maryknoll priests and Brothers have gone on mission to dozens of countries throughout the world. Many died young in difficult missions, and not a few have shed their blood for Christ. This is a time to celebrate the glory given by Christ to His relatively young Society. The main purpose of this event, though, is not to glory in our past. We celebrate principally to fulfill the burning desire of our founders, in words enshrined over the main entrance of the Seminary building, Euntes Docete Omnes Gentes, “Go and teach all nations” (Matthew 28:19). Nearly twenty centuries after Christ gave this command, the Church, during the Second Vatican Council, again defined this as the fundamental purpose of mission, being “sent out by the Church and going forth into the whole world, to carry out the task of preaching the Gospel and planting the Church among peoples or groups who do not yet believe in Christ” (Ad Gentes, 6).
