Son of Italian immigrants, his father Mario was an accountant employed by the railways, and his mother Regina Sivori was a committed wife dedicated to raising their five children. He graduated as a chemical technician and then chose the path of the priesthood, entering the Diocesan Seminary of Villa Devoto. On March 11, 1958, he entered the novitiate of the Society of Jesus. He completed his studies in the humanities in Chile, and returned to Argentina in 1963 to graduate with a degree in philosophy from the Colegio de San José in San Miguel. From 1964 to 1965 he taught literature and psychology at Immaculate Conception College in Santa Fé, and in 1966 he taught the same subjects at the Colegio del Salvatore in Bunos Aires. From 1967 to 1970, he studied theology and obtained a degree from the Colegio of San José. On December 13, 1969, he was ordained a priest by Archbishop Ramón José Castellano. He continued his formation between 1970 and 1971 at the University Of Alcalá de Henares, Spain, and on April 22, 1973, made his final profession with the Jesuits. Returning to Argentina, he was novice master at Villa Barilari, San Miguel; professor at the Faculty of Theology of San Miguel; consulter to the Province of the Society of Jesus, and also Rector of the Colegio Máximo. On July 31, 1973, he was appointed Provincial of the Jesuits in Argentina, an office he held for six years. He then resumed his work in the university sector and from 1980 to 1986 served once again as Rector of the Colegio de San José, as well as parish priest, again in San Miguel. In March 1986 he went to Germany to finish his doctoral thesis; his superiors then sent him to the Colegio del Salvador in Buenos Aires and next to the Jesuit Church in the city of Córdoba as 8 spiritual director and confessor. On May 20, 1992, Pope John Paul II appointed him titular Bishop of Auca and Auxiliary of Buenos Aires. On May 27, he received episcopal ordination from Cardinal Antinio Quarracino, Archbishop of Buenos Aires. He was immediately appointed Episcopal Vicar of the Flores district and on December 21, 1993, was also entrusted with the office of Vicar General of the Archdiocese. On June 3, 1997, he was named of Coadjutor Archbishop of Buenos Aires. About nine months later, upon the death of Cardinal Quarracino, he succeeded him on February 28, 1998, as Archbishop, Primate of Argentina and Ordinary for Eastern Catholic in Argentina who do not have an Ordinary of their own rite. Three years later at the Consistory of February 21, 2001, Pope John Paul II created him Cardinal, assigning him the title of San Roberto Bellarmino. In October 2001, he was appointed General Relator to the 10th Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the Ministry of Bishops. In 2005, he was elected President of the Argentine Bishops’ Conference and then, in 2008, reconfirmed for a further three-year term. In April 2005, he took part in the Conclave in which Pope Benedict XVI was elected. Until the beginning of the recent sede vacante, he was a member of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, the Congregation for the Clergy, and the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Apostolic Life, the Pontifical Council for the Family, and the Pontifical Commission for Latin America. He was elected Supreme Pontiff on March 13, 2013 9 THE CATHOLIC CHURCH The Church had its beginning in Palestine after the historic Pentecost in Jerusalem. Then, it spread to other regions of the world. As it spread, certain cities became centers of Christian life and missionary endeavors-notably, Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria and Constantinople in the East and Rome in the West of the Roman Empire – India and Mesopotamia outside the Roman Empire. Each center developed its own practices of worship. These practices became diffused throughout their spheres of influence. These various groups of the faithful were

Prohlašuji, že práce nebyla využita k získání jiného titulu. 3. Souhlasím s tím, aby práce byla zpřístupněna pro studijní a výzkumné účely. V Praze dne 25. 11. 2014 2 Bibliografická citace Dopady různosti obřadů v manželských kauzách na církevním soudu [rukopis]: disertační práce / Miloš Szabo; vedoucí práce: Antonín Hrdina. – Praha, 2014. – 187 s. (+ 74 s. příloha) Anotace Křesťanství se z Jeruzaléma šířilo několika směry. Jedno z jeho nejvlivnějších center vzniklo v Římě, jenž se stal také sídlem papežů a zůstal jím i po přesídlení císaře do tehdy řecké Konstantinopole. Kromě Říma, spjatého s apoštolem Petrem však existovaly i další velké křesťanské obce, založené ostatními apoštoly, ležící na východ od římské říše, které se stejně jako ta římská nazývaly církví. A tak i dnes kromě největší latinské (římské) církve existují desítky východních, právem se chlubících vlastní apoštolskou tradicí. V průběhu dějin došlo několikrát k narušení jejich komunikace s Římem, ale i mezi sebou navzájem. V dnešní době, kdy z různých důvodů dochází k velkým migračním vlnám, se některá církevní společenství, doposud považována striktně za východní, dostávají do diaspory s latinskou církví, čímž vzniká nejen velká pravděpodobnost růstu počtu smíšených intereklesiálních manželství, ale zároveň také zvýšené množství manželských kauz, které bude muset následně řešit církevní soud. Aby jeho rozhodnutí bylo spravedlivé, je potřebné znát jak historii těchto východních církví, mezi nimiž je i dvacet dva sjednocených s Římem (tedy východní katolické církve), tak i především jejich teologická specifika, spiritualitu a partikulární právo.

(Lk. 5:4). St. Aloysius Minor Seminary has taken these words as the motto for the academic year 2016-2017. By "going deep" we find our Christian vocation and mission especially in having a personal relationshion with the living Christ. When Peter and his companions acted according to the command of the Lord, they had a miraculous catch (Lk. 5:6). In the same way, our Seminarians strive to develop a deeper relationship with Jesus in everything we do, we are, and we are called to be. In many areas of life, especially in our discipleship, we can work so hard and seem to have so little to show for it.

  • EDUCATION the GLOBAL COMPACT Today Too, Children Are a Sign
    THE PONTIFICAL ACADEMY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES 6-7 February 2020 | Casina Pio IV | Vatican City EDUCATION THE GLOBAL COMPACT Today too, children are a sign. They are a sign of hope, a sign of life, but also a “diagnostic” sign, a marker indicating the health of families, society and the entire world. Wherever children are accepted, loved, cared for and protected, the family is healthy, society is more healthy and the world is more human.

Index En 1980, le Centre de recherche en histoire religieuse du Canada faisait paraître Évêques catholiques du Canada, ouvrage de référence de facture plutôt modeste qui se contentait de fournir les renseignements essentiels sur les évêques s’étant succédé à la tête des diocèses du Canada ou y ayant exercé la fonction d’auxiliaires, et sur les Canadiens ayant exercé l’épiscopat à l’étranger. Le bon accueil réservé à ce répertoire amena il y a quelques années le Centre à envisager la possibilité de le rééditer, mais avec les mises à jour et les améliorations qui s’imposaient. C’est alors que Jean LeBlanc, ancien bibliothécaire à l’Université d’Ottawa, s’offrit à réaliser sous l’égide du Centre le projet en question, projet auquel il entendait toutefois donner une ampleur dépassant de loin celle que nous avions au départ envisagée. Cette offre fut aussitôt acceptée et, à notre grande satisfaction, paraissait en 2002, chez l’éditeur Wilson & Lafleur, dans la collection Gratianus dirigée par le professeur Ernest Caparros, le Dictionnaire biographique des évêques catholiques du Canada, « monument » de quelque 880 pages qui fut dès sa sortie très bien reçu.

  • “ Male and Female He Created Them ”
    CONGREGATION FOR CATHOLIC EDUCATION (for Educational Institutions) “ MALE AND FEMALE HE CREATED THEM ” TOWARDS A PATH OF DIALOGUE ON THE QUESTION OF GENDER THEORY IN EDUCATION VATICAN CITY 2019 INTRODUCTION 1. It is becoming increasingly clear that we are now facing with what might accurately be called an educational crisis, especially in the feld of affectivity and sexuality. In many places, curricula are being planned and implemented which “allegedly convey a neutral conception of the per- son and of life, yet in fact refect an anthropology opposed to faith and to right reason”.1 The disorientation regarding anthropology which is a widespread feature of our cultural landscape has undoubtedly helped to destabilise the family as an institution, bringing with it a tendency to cancel out the differences between men and women, presenting them instead as merely the product of historical and cultural conditioning. 2. The context in which the mission of education is carried out is charac- terized by challenges emerging from varying forms of an ideology that is given the general name ‘gender theory’, which “denies the difference and reciprocity in nature of a man and a woman and envisages a society with- out sexual differences, thereby eliminating the anthropological basis of the family. This ideology leads to educational programmes and legislative enactments that promote a personal identity and emotional intimacy rad- ically separated from the biological difference between male and female. Consequently, human identity becomes the choice of the individual, one which can also change over time”.2 3. It seems clear that this issue should not be looked at in isolation from the broader question of education in the call to love,3 which should offer, 1 Benedict XVi, Address to Members of the Diplomatic Corps, 10 January 2011.
