Church Entity Engagement with Catholic Professional Standards Church Entity Engagement with Catholic Professional Standards The Australian Catholic Bishops Conference (ACBC) and Catholic Religious Australia (CRA) approved the National Catholic Safeguarding Standards (the Standards) in May 2019. This approval indicates a clear expectation that Catholic entities across Australia are now required to implement the Standards. Whilst entering into a Service Agreement for an audit against the Standards is not mandatory, it is strongly encouraged by ACBC and CRA. This report provides information about the engagement of individual Catholic entities with CPSL. This report will be updated at the end of each month or as otherwise specified. 141 out of 262 Catholic Church entities have formally engaged with CPSL to the end of November 2019 – this represents 54% of identified Catholic entities across Australia.

  • Saints Related to Young People
    Saints Related to Young People Thomas Aquinas—Academics Thomas was a gentle teacher who believed faith and reason when used wisely would enable all humanity to know and love God as the angels. He studied in Paris from 1245-1248 under Saint Albert the Great, then accompanied Albertus to Cologne. Here he received the nickname “dumb ox,” though he is now considered a Doctor of the Church, and one of the most intelligent philosophers of all time. Vitus—Against Oversleeping For obscure reasons, some 16th century Germans believed they could obtain a year's good health by dancing before the statue of Saint Vitus on his feast day. This dancing developed almost into a mania, and was confused with chorea, the nervous condition later known as Saint Vitus' Dance, the saint being invoked against it. Francis of Assisi—Animals, Catholic Action It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching. Son of a rich cloth merchant. Misspent youth. Street brawler and some-time soldier. During an imprisonment in Perugia, he had a conversion experience, including a reported message from Christ calling him to leave this worldly life. Upon release, Francis began taking his religion seriously. Christopher—Drivers His fame derives from the pious legend of him being a "Christ-bearer" (= Christopher). He was a powerfully built man who wandered the world in search of novelty and adventure. He came upon a hermit who lived beside a dangerous stream and served others by guiding them to safe places to cross. George—Boy Scouts Several stories have been attached to Saint George, the best known of which is the Golden Legend.

  • Don Bosco and Devotion to Mary, Help of Christians
    Don Bosco’s Devotion to Mary Help of Christians Mamma Margaret and Francis Bosco instilled into their children a strong devotion to Mary, praying the rosary together daily as a family. John made this devotion his and would make the recitation of the rosary one of the cornerstones of his Preventive System. John was devoted to Mary under any title though at various times of his life there was greater emphasis placed on one or the other. Growing up, the primary devotion was to the Immaculate, as the Woman who remained free from the stain of sin, always doing God’s Will. In Chieri, during his first vocation crisis at the end of high school in 1835, John made a novena to know the Lord’s Will, as regarded that vocation, to Our Lady of Grace for it was her painting that adorned one of the altars in the Duomo there. Upon moving to Torino, Our Lady of Consolation was most frequently appealed to since her church was but a stone’s throw from the Oratory and there was an ancient devotion to her in that city. It was before her image that Don Bosco knelt and to her that he entrusted himself, asking her to now “be his mother” upon Mamma Margaret’s death in 1856. Then, revolutionary fever escalated in Italy (or, better, in the many individual kingdoms in what would become Italy in 1870). Rebels began to ask for the unification of Italy, whether peacefully or by force. Kings could give up their smaller kingdoms peacefully in favor of a unified Italy or they would be taken by force, if necessary.

  • THE RELATIONSHIP of the LAY CAMILLIAN FAMILY with the ORDER of CAMILLIANS and the CHURCH Rome, 16 October 2018
    THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE LAY CAMILLIAN FAMILY WITH THE ORDER OF CAMILLIANS AND THE CHURCH Rome, 16 October 2018 Fr. Angelo Brusco Introduction The prophecy of St. Camillus who predicted the spread throughout the world of the little plant of the Order that he had founded has also been fulfilled as regards the Lay Camillian Family (LCF). Indeed, today the LCF is present in all the continents of the world, multiplying the number of arms stretched out towards those who find themselves going through the difficult season of suffering. The pathway that has led this association to the point at which it is today is very variegated and has been conditioned by numerous factors of a socio- cultural and religious character. My paper does not have the goal of addressing in a detailed way the history of the Lay Camillian Family, which, indeed, has already been the subject of numerous articles, including mine, even though we still do not have a systematic analysis of the history of the LCF. In a necessary reference to its history, I will thus confine myself to referring solely to the events that help us to understand the relationship of this association with the Order of Camillians and the Church. The Relationship with the Order of Camillians Father Mario Vanti, the most authoritative historian of our Institute, wrote that within the Order of Camillians an ‘almost congenital’ need has been present to aggregate lay people to the exercise of its apostolic mission. This need was perceived as early as the beginnings of the Institute, as is attested to by the Bull that founded the Order, Illius qui pro gregis , which was emanated in 1591 by Gregory XIV.

  • The Campaign for Senior Jesuit Healthcare Midwest Jesuits
    The Campaign for Senior Jesuit Healthcare Midwest Jesuits Executive Summary With Others. For Others. The Campaign for Senior Jesuit Healthcare is an umbrella campaign to meet the needs of senior and infirm Jesuits today and into the future. The $25 million campaign will raise the corpus of the Midwest Jesuits Senior and Infirm Fund to a sustainable critical value to support a historically high number of senior Jesuits requiring care over the next 15–25 years and beyond. Because community is central to Jesuit life, the campaign is designed to provide healthcare in a caring community environment. The USA Midwest Province is fortunate to have two Jesuit communities that serve our senior and infirmed Jesuits: Colombiere Jesuit Community in Clarkston, MI, and St. Camillus Jesuit Community, just west of Milwaukee. Colombiere is owned and operated by the Jesuits. The Colombiere Center was renovated during the 1990s and is staffed to care for 50–60 senior Jesuits in need of assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care. St. Camillus is owned and operated by the Camillians, a religious order whose charism is to provide healthcare for the sick and elderly. Since 1992, senior Jesuits have lived in community on the St. Camillus health care campus. The current Jesuit community of 50–60 priests and brothers is in a hospital building that was constructed in 1932. In addition to the Jesuit community, the St. Camillus campus includes 700 additional living units for independent, assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care. In 2014, the Jesuits established a committee to study the future senior care needs of the new USA Midwest Province, which was formed on June 5, 2017.

  • Religious Orders in Slovakia on the Way to the Development of Professional Nursing
    RELIGIOUS ORDERS IN SLOVAKIA ON THE WAY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROFESSIONAL NURSING NÁBOŽENSKÉ RÁDY NA SLOVENSKU NA CESTE K ROZVOJU PROFESIONÁLNEHO OŠETROVATEĽSTVA PhDr. Alena Dziacka, PhD. 1 doc. PhDr. Andrea Botíková, PhD., MPH 1,2 1Trnava University, Faculty of Health Sciences and Social Work, Department of Nursing 2 University of Ss. Cyril and Methodius in Trnava, Institute of Physiotherapy, Balneology and Medical Rehabilitation Abstract This article summarizes current and past Slovak church institutions involved in nursing work. The core of this article is about nursing as a charity work, which is still alive and even helps in the development of the professional nursing. Key words: nursing, religious orders, charity work Introduction Religious orders have played significant role in charitable nursing ever since the 8th century. Today, there are 60 religious orders, congregations, and societies from among which 34 are male ones and 23 are female ones (Šimončič, 1994, p. 40). However, not all religious orders and similar formations are involved in charitable nursing. The ones that are involved in charitable nursing are for example. The Brothers Hospitallers of St. John of God This religious order was founded in Spain in 1537 by St. John of God. The mission of this order is to serve the sick, the old, and the lonely in the hospitals (Farkašová, 2010, p. 91). The Brothers Hospitallers came to the land of current Slovakia in 1650 upon the request of Polish Earl Stanislav Subomírsky(Kvasničková, 1995, p. 141). The brothers first settled in Spišské Podhradie. Later, they branched out to Brastislava and Skalica. In 1941, Hospitallers started to build a hospital with 300 beds in Skalica.
