If we Fri: 1 Tm 6:2c-12/Ps 49:6-7, 8-10, 17-18, 19-20/Lk 8:1-3 are only human beings having a spiritual experience, then we Sat: 1 Tm 6:13-16/Ps 100:1b-2, 3, 4, 5 [2]/Lk 8:4-15 wrongly expect our spirituality to serve us as we desire.

  • St. Stanislaus Kostka
    SAINT STANISLAUS KOSTKA 1550-1568 Saint Stanislaus Kostka, at the age of seventeen, was so gravely ill that he seemed very near the end of his life. In that time, he lived as the guest of a noble Protestant who would not even permit him to be visited by a Catholic priest. Stanislaus was not discouraged and one night, in the presence of his tutor, he received Communion in a miraculous way. A few days later he recovered and decided to enter the Jesuit order.

    Saint Francis Xavier Basilica Saint Francis Xavier Basilica The Way of the Basilica Windows The Way of the Basilica Windows 2021 Father Anton Kortenkamp 1862~1889 In February of 1862, Bishop Smyth of the Diocese of Dubuque sent the newly-ordained, 27- year-old, Father Anton Kortenkamp, to be the second pastor of the parish of Saint Francis Xavier. He spent the rest of his life here, 27 more years. Fr. Kortenkamp built churches, schools, rectories, a convent and most importantly, the spiritual faith of the Saint Francis Xavier parishioners. Fr. Kortenkamp was also a missionary priest to the Catholics of Worthington, Delhi, Nottingham (today’s Earlville) and Petersburg. It was on a visit to Delhi one winter night that Fr. Kortenkamp was thrown from his horse and buggy into a swollen creek and almost drowned. His health was never the same after that. In early 1887, Fr. Kortenkamp began purchasing the land and buildings The Resurrection Window adjacent to the old church. He began planning a church that no future pastor was ever going to have to enlarge. With the help of Fr. Brinkmann, the parish’s first assistant pastor, he built the largest church in the state Monsignor Edward Petty 1947~2007 of Iowa. Fr. Kortenkamp did it all from the rectory, reviewing plans and Father Petty served the Archdiocese of Dubuque in many capacities watching out the window, because from mid-1887 he was shut-in, due to during his 30 years as a diocesan priest.

  • Jubilee of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga 2018/03 to the WHOLE SOCIETY
    Jubilee of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga 2018/03 TO THE WHOLE SOCIETY Dear Friends in the Lord, This year, at the invitation of Pope Francis, the Church focuses its attention on young people. The October Synod of Bishops in Rome on “Young People, Faith and Vocational Discernment”, and the January 2019 World Youth Day in Panama will be two significant moments in which the Church will concentrate on young people today, to listen to their concerns, dreams and hopes, and to enrich itself with their joys, initiatives and openness to life. Precisely in the period of preparation for these two meetings, the Society simultaneously celebrates the 450th anniversary of the birth of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga (March 9, 1568, in Castiglione delle Stiviere) and the death of Saint Stanislaus Kostka (August 15, 1568, in Rome). Both young Jesuits gave witness to surprising openness to God leading to counter- cultural options. Feeling called to give their entire selves, both demonstrated an unambiguous willingness to identify themselves with the Lord, responded with determination and enthusiasm to their vocation, and overcame many challenging obstacles that seemed to block their entrance into the Society of Jesus. For us, to direct our attention to these young Jesuits, proclaimed saints by the Church in 1726, means to return to the radical surrender of one’s life to Jesus Christ and to the cause of the Gospel, and to deepen our integration of life and mission. It also means to grow in inner freedom in such a way that we can make discernment - both personal and in common - our normal way of proceeding in our service to the mission of Christ today.
