ANTONIO POMA- Villanterese Nato a Villanterio il 12.6.1910- morto a Bologna il 24 settembre 1985 Pur tra gli innumerevoli impegni del suo ministero, il Cardinale Antonio Poma ha sempre mantenuto un legame molto stretto con il paese d’origine. Numerose le sue visite a Villanterio, sia da Vescovo di Mantova che da Cardinale Arcivescovo di Bologna, per celebrare ricorrenze, cresime e suffragare i suoi genitori che riposano nel nostro cimitero. I più anziani lo chiamavano sempre affettuosamente “don Antonio” così come fece un suo compagno di classe che in questo modo lo chiamò in San Pietro quando, appena davanti a Papa Paolo VI, attraversava la navata centrale della basilica e si accingeva a ricevere la berretta cardinalizia. Chi ha avuto la fortuna di conoscerlo personalmente, ha potuto constatarne la semplicità con cui gli si poteva parlare ed il suo interessamento per ogni cosa, anche piccola, che riguardasse il paese che gli ha dato i natali. Con una solenne concelebrazione, venne festeggiato a Villanterio nel venticinquesimo della sua ordinazione episcopale e l’abbiamo visto commosso davanti all’altare dedicato alla Madonna del Carmine, allo scoprimento di una lapide commemorativa che ricordava come a quell’altare si formò in lui la vocazione al Sacerdozio. Anche l’Amministrazione Comunale, che gli ha dedicato una via del paese, ha voluto ricordare questa eminente figura di villanterese con una lapide commemorativa fatta affiggere, qualche anno fa, sul muro della casa dove il Card.

  • Inspectis Dierum Nostrorum: Instruction on the Study of the Fathers of the Church in the Formation of Priests
    Congregation for Catholic Education. AAS Vol 82 (1990) 607-636 Inspectis dierum nostrorum: Instruction on the Study of the Fathers of the Church in the Formation of Priests INTRODUCTION Considering the particular needs of theological education in centers of priestly formation today, the Congregation for Catholic Education dedicates this instruction to the study of the fathers of the church, giving such study more extensive treatment here than in its previous general description of it. 1 The call to promote patristic study more intensively in seminaries and theological faculties might seem surprising to some people. Why, they might ask, are professors and students urged to turn toward the past when in church and society today there are so many serious problems that require an urgent solution? A convincing answer may be found if one looks at the history of theology, considers carefully some characteristics of today’s cultural climate, and pays attention to the profound needs of spirituality and pastoral care and the new directions which are emerging in them. A review of the various stages of the history of theology reveals that theological reflection has never renounced the reassuring and guiding presence of the fathers. On the contrary, theological reflection has always been clearly aware that there is something in the fathers which is unique, irreplaceable and perennially valid, as relevant as ever. As Pope John Paul II stated, “The church still lives today by the life received from her fathers, and on the foundation erected by her first constructors she is still being built today in the joy and sorrow of her journeying and daily toil.” 2 Next, in considering the climate of our contemporary culture, there are many parallels to be drawn between the present and the patristic era, despite obvious differences.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See ADDRESS OF JOHN PAUL II TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SECRETARIAT FOR NON-CHRISTIANS Friday, 27 April 1979 Dearly beloved in Christ, IT GIVES ME great pleasure to meet you, the Cardinals and Bishops from various countries who are Members of the Secretariat for Non-Christians, and the Consultors who are experts in the major world religions, as you gather here in Rome for your first Plenary Assembly. I know that you planned to hold this meeting last autumn, but that you were prevented by the dramatic events of those months. The late Paul VI, who founded this Secretariat, and so much of whose love, interest and inspiration was lavished on non-Christians, in thus no longer visibly among us, and I am that some of you wondered whether the new Pope would devote similar care and attention to the world of the non-Christian religions. In my Encyclical Redemptor Hominis I endeavoured to answer any such question. In it I made reference to Paul VI’s first Encyclical, Ecclesiam Suam, and to the Second Vatican Council, and then I wrote: “The Ecumenical Council gave a fundamental impulse to forming the Church’s self-awareness by so adequately and competently presenting to us a view of the terrestrial globe as a map of various religions... The Council document on non-Christian religions, in particular, is filled with deep esteem for the great spiritual values, indeed for the primacy of the spiritual, which in the life of mankind finds expression in religion and then in morality, with direct effects on the whole of culture”[1].

  • Romero: Person and His Charisma with the Pontiffs
    260914: Julian Filochowski Romero: Person and His Charisma with the Pontiffs. It is my intuition that ‘the annunciation’ is just around the corner; that is an announcement from Rome - not from the Angel Gabriel, but from the Cardinal ‘Angel’ (Angelo) Amato, Head of the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints – an announcement that our beloved Servant of God, Oscar Romero, will be raised to the altars during 2015. Oremus! Archbishop Romero is not only the most famous Salvadoran of our times, but also the most loved and simultaneously the most hated. Nevertheless it seems entirely fitting to me to adapt the words from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, “he was the noblest Salvadoran of them all”. Indeed today he is recognised as such, repeatedly acclaimed by President Funes as the ‘spiritual guide of the nation’ - with monuments and memorials in almost every town and village in El Salvador. He has been described as a national treasure. As a holy prophet and martyr, Oscar Romero is, I would suggest, a precious diamond, who adds a special redemptive lustre to the universal Church of the 20th century. For over 30 years, however, Archbishop Romero’s detractors inside the Church have tried to paint a picture of him as a rather cheap fake diamond - naïve, vain, manipulated, doctrinally heterodox and politically extreme. (In truth they feared Romero’s canonisation might be interpreted as the canonisation of liberation theology.) And they are still not finished - even though their curial leader, the Colombian Cardinal Alfonso Lopez Trujillo, has now gone to that great dicastery in the sky, with God.

(39-06) 704 75 892 - Fax (39-06) 700 0406 E-mail: [email protected] June 10, 2013 Death Notice No. 12 (To all Unit Administrations): The Province of Italy, recommends to our fraternal prayers our dear brother, LUIGI GAMBERO, priest of the San Giovanni Community, Rome, Italy, who died in the service of the Blessed Virgin Mary on June 2, 2013 in Rome, Italy, at the age of 83 with 65 years of religious profession. Father Luigi Gambero was born on January 7, 1930, in Robbio, a large neighborhood of Lomellina, in the Province of Pavia, but included in the territory of the Archdiocese of Vercelli. Brought up by his parents, Giovanni and Maria, with sound traditional principles within the context of a rural society and a parish that was pastorally vibrant and strongly devoted to the Madonna, upon finishing elementary school Luigi was ready to accept the idea of entering the diocesan seminary. He was the altar boy in the parish church of San Stefano when a Marianist from the area, Father Secondo Casella, celebrated his First Solemn High Mass after his ordination in Fribourg. It was an occasion that the Provost, Monsignor Bogliani, a theologian with a broad vision and a big heart, experienced as a sign of Providence, leading him to the decision to send to the Marianists some of his aspirants for the priesthood. And so, at the end of 1941 Luigi entered the Santa Maria Postulate in Pallanza, where he continued his studies in the Nuova Scuola Media Unica (New Unique Middle School), which the Marianist Vice-Province of Italy had opened up to external students and was in the process of bringing up to the legally mandated public school standards.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See ADDRESS OF HIS HOLINESS JOHN PAUL II TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF ITALIAN BISHOPS Friday, 18 May 1979 Beloved and revered Confrères of the Italian Episcopate!I deeply desired to meet you again at the end of this General Assembly, not only for the pleasure that renewed contact or—more exactly—communion certainly gives me and you, but also and above all to express to you my sincere appreciation for the commitment each of you has shown in these laborious days. I have just returned from the visit to Monte Cassino, and also this circumstance, recalling fundamental memories that concern both the history of Christianity and Italic civilization, makes me feel more deeply the spiritual tie that binds me to you. And also I want to thank you for having patiently waited for me, aware as I am that not a few of you should have returned to your respective sees for urgent requirements of your ministry.1. On my side, I have been careful to follow your work—as far as was possible. I noted, with great . satisfaction, its seriousness and clarity in the rightful and pre-eminent consideration you dedicated to the problem-theme of "Seminaries and Priestly Vocations", I have already spoken of this subject during the concelebration in the Sistine Chapel, but its intrinsic importance and the special contributions made by the, Rapporteurs prompt me to add some further considerations in this connection.There is no doubt that the statistical data that have been presented, should offer the necessary reference point for an exact evaluation of the problem; but, as Pastors animated by living faith and prudent realism, we must always keep in mind that the most effective remedy, the adequate solution, lies in an incessant, courageous, and fervent vocational initiative.
