  • Selected Ancestors of the Chicago Rodger's
    Selected Ancestors of the Chicago Rodger’s Volume I: Continental Ancestors Before Hastings David Anderson March 2016 Charlemagne’s Europe – 800 AD For additional information, please contact David Anderson at: [email protected] 508 409 8597 Stained glass window depicting Charles Martel at Strasbourg Cathedral. Pepin shown standing Pepin le Bref Baldwin II, Margrave of Flanders 2 Continental Ancestors Before Hastings Saints, nuns, bishops, brewers, dukes and even kings among them David Anderson March 12, 2016 Abstract Early on, our motivation for studying the ancestors of the Chicago Rodger’s was to determine if, according to rumor, they are descendants of any of the Scottish Earls of Bothwell. We relied mostly on two resources on the Internet: Ancestry.com and Scotlandspeople.gov.uk. We have been subscribers of both. Finding the ancestral lines connecting the Chicago Rodger’s to one or more of the Scottish Earls of Bothwell was the most time consuming and difficult undertaking in generating the results shown in a later book of this series of three books. It shouldn’t be very surprising that once we found Earls in Scotland we would also find Kings and Queens, which we did. The ancestral line that connects to the Earls of Bothwell goes through Helen Heath (1831-1902) who was the mother and/or grandmother of the Chicago Rodger’s She was the paternal grandmother of my grandfather, Alfred Heath Rodger. Within this Heath ancestral tree we found four lines of ancestry without any evident errors or ambiguities. Three of those four lines reach just one Earl of Bothwell, the 1st, and the fourth line reaches the 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

  • Devotion to the Sacred Heart
    DEVOTION TO THE SACRED HEART THE MORNING OFFERING The morning offering is the means by which all our thoughts, words and actions of each succeeding day are directed in a special way towards God’s glory. It may be made in thought, in the heart only, or in words. The following is perhaps the shortest and most common form used: O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer you the prayers, works and sufferings of this day, for all the intentions of your divine Heart, in union with the holy sacrifice of the Mass. By this simple offering, the life of each individual becomes wholly consecrated each day to our divine Lord and his interests. Hour by hour, moment by moment, second by second, as we go through the routine of our daily life, we gain merits which enable our Lord to dispense more of his graces and to give help to sorely tried souls, whose eternal destiny is perhaps trembling in the balance and depends upon the very grace which our morning offering empowers him to give. When we give our merits to Christ and leave their application to him, he can dispense the grace as he knows best and in the most useful way to mankind. The value and efficacy of the merits which we offer by the daily morning oblation are immeasurably enhanced by being offered in union with the sacrifice of the Mass, the oblation of which our Lord himself offers daily upon our altars. Thus, by the daily gift of love, our lives are made an unbroken prayer; they are blended into constant prayerful union with the ineffable supplications of the pleading Heart of Jesus upon our altars, and become useful and helpful to him in realising more fully his unquenchable desire for the salvation and sanctification of the souls of men.

  • A Sixteenth-Century Mystical Renaissance in the Eastern Netherlands
    BERNARD MCGINN A Sixteenth-Century Mystical Renaissance in the Eastern Netherlands It is only within the past decade that the existence of a sixteenth-century renaissance of mysticism in the Eastern Netherlands has begun to emerge as an important chapter in the history of Western spirituality.1 Considerable research has been devoted to the role of the Charterhouse of St. Barbara at Cologne in editing, translating, and publishing mystical texts, as well as the place of these Carthusians in the history of Catholic reform, but little had been written about the connection of the Carthusians with centers of mystical writing both by and for women in the Netherlands provinces of Brabant and Gelderland.2 What is now clear is that in the mid-sixteenth century the conversation between men and women that was a feature of much late medieval mysticism found a new home in the Low Countries, one in which the Carthusians at Cologne and the community of Augustinian canonesses at St. Agnes at Arnhem formed two important foci.3 As the historian Jean Dagens once put it, “La Chartreuse de Cologne n’est pas moins important pour l’histoire religieuse que la Fraternité obscure où ­Thomas a Kempis a médité les livres de l’Imitation.”4 This may seem exagger- ated, but when we look at the activities of the Cologne community in editing, translating, and printing late medieval theological and spiritual writings, it becomes less extreme. This publishing effort was part of a program of reform centered at Cologne, a distinctive German attempt at countering the split in ¶ Much of the material in this essay appeared in a slightly different form in Chapter 5, “A Mys- tical Renaissance in the Eastern Netherlands,” in Bernard McGinn, The Varieties of Vernacular Mysticism, 1350-1550 (New York: Crossroad-Herder, 2012), 141-75.

  • AUGUSTINE BAKER, O.S.B. Towards a Re-Assessment
    J.P.H. CLARK AUGUSTINE BAKER, O.S.B. Towards a Re-Assessment Recent editorial work has opened the way to a new appreciation of a very sig- nificant figure in the English contemplative tradition, whose influence contin- ues not only through his writings, but through the living witness of the direct successors of the religious community for which in his life-time he provided guidance and inspiration. Augustine Baker, O.S.B. (1575-1641) is known above all through Holy Wis- dom (Sancta Sophia), the digest of his teaching published in 1657 by his con- frère Serenus Cressy under the authority of the General Chapter of the English Benedictine Congregation.1 The foundations for all modern studies of Fr. Baker were laid by Abbot Justin McCann, O.S.B., who not only provided editions of the biographical material, but also listed all the manuscripts of Fr. Baker’s unpublished works that were accessible to him, and is credited with being the only person in mod- ern times to have read them all through.2 Some thirty years ago Dom Placid Spearitt recognised the desirability of critical editions of Fr. Baker’s writings,3 but monastic duties prevented him from bringing this about. More recently, the nuns of Stanbrook Abbey have produced an edition of Fr. Baker’s Substance of 1 For the successive editions of Holy Wisdom, see Michael Woodward, ‘Bakerdata: An Anno- tated Bibliography of Published Tests and Secondary Sources’, in: M.

  • Entry Into the Sacred Heart Is for Everyone
    Entry into the Sacred Heart is for Everyone March 2009 Dear Friends of the Heart of Christ, There is a scene in The Passion of the Christ movie that gives me much thought for this Lenten Sacred Heart reflection. On Mount Calvary at the time when Jesus dies for us, one of the soldiers present takes his long spear and thrusts it into the ribs of Christ-aiming right for his heart. Jesus seems to have expired and this will not leave any doubt. Gathering storm clouds urge him on for he does not want to be caught in the violent winds and rains that have begun to pelt him. Recall the characters played by the soldiers and the terrible sufferings they wreck on Jesus. They are portrayed as heartless, mocking, crude, there to do a job and be over with it. Inflicting suffering on others makes them feel powerful, in control, dominant. As the centurion takes his long, steel-tipped spear and jabs it into the flesh of the dead Christ, a stream of blood and water literally flies out at him spurting over him into his face and eyes. In an instant he is changed. He is no longer the arrogant, jesting, hard-hearted person he was but is transformed both physically and spiritually. He thus proclaims, “In truth this man was the Son of God.” Tradition has named this soldier Longinus-a latinized form of the Greek word longche which means spear. A statue of him as Saint Longinus appears in the Vatican by the famous artist Bernini.
