  • Official Communique 13
    Official Communique 13 Presentation of the decree of the CCCB on the application of the norms of Misericordia Dei My dear fellow priests, It is five years now since I presented to you the letter Misericordia Dei of Pope John Paul II, and provided you with some guidelines for the practice of the ministry of reconciliation while reserving the right to return to the subject once the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments had confirmed the decree that the CCCB intended to put before it. Some revisions and several meetings between the representatives of the CCCB and the Holy See were necessary before the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops received from the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments the recognitio requested following a vote by more than a two- thirds majority of the members of the Conference. It was actually on January 18th last that the Conference received the confirmation of its decree. You will find as an appendix the text of the decree in French and English. This decree of the Conference confirms the exceptional character of general absolution and specifies the conditions for it even more precisely. You will realize that the necessary conditions do not obtain in our diocese to enable me to authorize recourse to this third form of the sacrament of penance. In this respect, nothing has changed in what I said to you in my letter of February 9th, 2005 in which I informed you of my decision to give no further approval to the adoption of general absolution.

  • 1 Notes for Chapter Seven 7–A: Pastors' Responsibility to Know Well
    1 Notes for Chapter Seven 7–A: Pastors’ responsibility to know well those they serve Priests really need to be out and about, to be seen by their people. In former days, some priests in city parishes got their exercise by taking a walk, each day in a different direction, occasionally dropping in on someone to chat a few minutes. Being approachable is very important, and that means not having a lifestyle that is economically beyond people. Father Star really wants to lead his flock effectively, not just provide pastoral services. The people cannot be expected to follow him unless they respect and trust him. The necessary presupposition of that is that they know him, not simply recognize him as “priest assigned to our parish,” but become acquainted with him as the particular person he is. So, he personalizes his homilies, because celebrating the liturgy and preaching provide the only opportunity for most people in the parish to get to know him. At the same time, he does not try to get to know many of his people as distinct individuals. Visiting households at the rate of one a day would not get him to everyone in three years, and he wouldn’t really get to know people while doing that. Talking with people after Mass results in getting to know a few—but the same few take up a lot of time with no real payoff. People who want services come to the rectory—between one and two percent of the people in the parish in the course of the year, and he gets to know some of these—all too well.

  • Saint John Paul II (1978-2005)
    Saint John Paul II (1978-2005) His Holiness John Paul II (16 Oct. 1978-2 April 2005) was the first Slav and the first non-Italian Pope since Hadrian VI. Karol Wojtyla was born on 18 May 1920 at Wadowice, an industrial town south-west of Krakow, Poland. His father was a retired army lieutenant, to whom he became especially close since his mother died when he was still a small boy. Joining the local primary school at seven, he went at eleven to the state high school, where he proved both an outstanding pupil and a fine sportsman, keen on football, swimming, and canoeing (he was later to take up skiing); he also loved poetry, and showed a particular flair for acting. In 1938 he moved with his father to Krakow where he entered the Jagiellonian University to study Polish language and literature; as a student he was prominent in amateur dramatics, and was admired for his poems. When the Germans occupied Poland in September 1939, the university was forcibly closed down, although an underground network of studies was maintained (as well as an underground theatrical club which he and a friend organised). Thus he continued to study incognito, and also to write poetry. In winter 1940 he was given a labourer’s job in a limestone quarry at Zakrówek, outside Krakow, and in 1941 was transferred to the water- purification department of the Solway factory in Borek Falecki; these experiences were to inspire some of the more memorable of his later poems. In 1942, after his father’s death and after recovering from two near-fatal accidents, he felt the call to the priesthood, began studying theology clandestinely and after the liberation of Poland by the Russian forces in January 1945 was able to rejoin the Jagiellonian University openly.

  • Artyku Ł Y Divine Mercy As a Sign of God's
    ARTYKUŁY ___________________________________________________________ ROCZNIKI TEOLOGICZNE Tom LXIII, zeszyt 5 — 2016 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.18290/rt.2016.63.5-1 REV. PRZEMYSŁAW SAWA DIVINE MERCY AS A SIGN OF GOD’S ALMIGHTINESS Abstract.Mercy has a special place and meaning in the Christian doctrine. It is connect- ed with God’s almightiness. In view of that mercy is not a display of weakness or powerless- ness, but a demonstration of God’s active and creative love. God is almighty, he does as He pleases, according to the truth and justice, rules over everything according to His own will and nothing is to difficult for Him. However, the biggest display of this almightiness is forgiveness which touches the depths of sinner’s heart. That is why God’s almightiness does not limit human dignity nor freedom in any way, but protects human life and constitutes a foundation for man’s rise from sin through gift of grace. It defines proper Christian spirituality: personal experience of mercy, forgiveness of sins and forgiveness towards men, acceptance of the gift of indulgences and jubilee years. Perform- ing works of mercy in imitation of God is as well of big importance. Key words: mercy; God’s almightiness; indulgences; spirituality of mercy. “We need to constantly contemplate the mystery of mercy. It is a well- spring of joy, serenity, and peace. Our salvation depends on it.”1 These words of Francis provoke spiritual activity and theological reflection on mer- Rev.

  • Misericordia Dei
    Franciscan University Presents “The Path of Repentance” with guest, Father Dave Pivonka, TOR John Paul II’s Apostolic Letter MISERICORDIA DEI: ON CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE CELEBRATION OF THE SACRAMENT OF PENANCE By the mercy of God, the Father who reconciles us to himself, the Word took flesh in the spotless womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary to save “his people from their sins” (Mt 1:21) and to open for them “the way of eternal salvation.” By identifying Jesus as “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world” (Jn 1:29), Saint John the Baptist confirms this mission. In all his deeds and preaching, the Precursor issues a fervent and energetic summons to repentance and conversion, the sign of which is the baptism administered in the waters of the Jordan. Jesus himself underwent this penitential rite (cf. Mt 3:13-17), not because he had sinned, but because “he allows himself to be numbered among sinners; he is already `the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world' (Jn 1:29); already he is anticipating the `baptism' of his bloody death.” Salvation is therefore and above all redemption from sin, which hinders friendship with God, a liberation from the state of slavery in which man finds himself ever since he succumbed to the temptation of the Evil One and lost the freedom of the children of God (cf. Rom 8:21). Christ entrusts to the Apostles the mission of proclaiming the Kingdom of God and preaching the Gospel of conversion (cf. Mk 16:15; Mt 28:18-20).

  • SUMMARY HISTORY of BISHOP MORRIS' DISPUTE with the ROMAN DICASTERIES
    SUMMARY HISTORY of BISHOP MORRIS' DISPUTE with the ROMAN DICASTERIES The following is an overview of the history of the dispute between Bishop William Morris and the Roman Dicasteries. It is not exhaustive and the full detail is to be found in the associated documents. November 1992 Fr William Martin Morris is announced as the new Bishop of Toowoomba. He succeeded Bishop Edward Kelly MSC, DD, who had retired in accord with canon 401 § I having completed his 75`h year. 9 February 1993 Bishop Morris presented the Apostolic Letter of Appointment to the clergy of the diocese in a para-liturgy held at the James Byrne Centre, Highfields. All clergy signed a copy of the letter to indicate their acceptance of William Morris as Bishop of Toowoomba. Bishop Morris, immediately, proved to have a very different style of leadership from previous bishops. The Bishop encouraged dialogue and collaboration. Among differences of approach were: o The creation of a Personnel Board to deal with appointments of clergy. This body consulted with the people of the parishes concerned and interviewed applicants before recommending the most suitable person for the position. In the past appointments, except for a few exceptions, were made on seniority of ordination. o The bishop established a Diocesan Liturgical Commission to facilitate education and formation of priests and people in matters of liturgy. o A Policy was established for Initiation of Children that returned the sacraments of Confirmation and first Eucharist to their ancient order. o Guidelines for the use of General Absolution within the celebration of Communal Rites of Reconciliation were developed.
