  • The Word from Lansing: with Gratitude for African-American Catholics
    The Word from Lansing: With Gratitude for African-American Catholics By Paul A. Long July 16, 2021 Last month, communities across the state commemorated the events of June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—when Union Major General Gordon Granger and two thousand Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, the furthest outpost of the Confederacy. There Major General Granger announced General Order Number 3, which proclaimed freedom from slavery in Texas. While the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution officially outlawed the practice of slavery in America, Juneteenth is also referred to as Freedom Day, Jubilee Day, Liberation Day, and Emancipation Day. The observance brings to mind the devastating effect of slavery, primarily for the families whose ancestors experienced enslavement. At the same time, it reminds Americans of two important truths: 1. Freedom had to be fought for; it was not fully realized for all at the nation’s founding. Every generation must continue to fight for and protect it. 2. The struggle for racial equality and the importance of reflection and action regarding the status of race relations within the country is ongoing. Despite experiences of personal and, at times, institutional racism, African-American men and women have risen up to inspire a more equal and just society. Just a few of such American heroes include Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Booker T. Washington, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., and Jackie Robinson. African-American Catholics have also contributed substantially to the shaping of communities across the country. While nearly a dozen individuals of American heritage have been canonized, six African-Americans are in the early stages of examination for sainthood.

  • Understanding Sainthood
    Chapter 1 Understanding Sainthood In This Chapter ▶ Defining what it means to be a saint ▶ Looking at the canonization process and how it has changed ▶ Honoring and celebrating the saints ▶ Following the examples set forth by the saints n this chapter, we discuss the idea of sainthood in general, especially Ihow the Catholic Church understands the notion of holiness in its mem- bers. We take you through the canonization process and explain how it has evolved over the centuries. We explain how saints are venerated, and we dis- cuss the unique role patron saints can play in your spiritual life. Finally, we examine the reasons for pursuing a saintly life and the means to achieve it. Ordinary Saints versus Official Saints In the Catholic Church, anyone who goes to heaven is considered a saint. Those who make it to heaven but are never canonized are still as saintly as those named so by the pope; in fact, the unnamed and unnumbered saints in heaven are in the majority, and God alone knows who they are and how numerous. These ordinary saints lived normal lives but did so with faith in and love for the Lord. Official saints, on the other hand, are men and women who livedCOPYRIGHTED lives worthy of recognition, honor, MATERIAL and imitation. The Catholic Church has never taught that a person has to be perfect or sinless to get to heaven. In fact, it teaches that every man and woman who has been born since Adam and Eve (except for the Virgin Mary, by a special divine grace from God) suffers from the effects of original sin.

McCarrick visited the Archdiocese. During his stay, Cardinal McCarrick, Archbishop Emeritus of Washington D.C., celebrated Mass at Bishop McGuinness High School. Following Mass he enjoyed an informal chat with students. Archbishop Beltran and Cardinal McCarrick then visited the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial and Saint Joseph's Old Cathedral. The two friends also made the drive to Okarche and the gravesite of Father Stanley Rother where both men prayed for the canonization of the slain Oklahoma priest. They later visited Holy Trinity Church where Father Rother was baptized and where a statue is dedicated to his memory. On Tuesday afternoon, Cardinal McCarrick spent two hours in an informal session with priests at the Catholic Pastoral Center. About 30 Oklahoma priests attended and later enjoyed dinner with the Cardinal. This was Cardinal McCarrick's first visit to Oklahoma.

  • Protestant Competition Is Good for Saints Protestant Competition Is Good for Saints
    Protestant Competition is Good for Saints Protestant Competition is Good for Saints Robert J. Barro and Rachel M. McCleary Harvard University Saints are a major point of disagreement between the Roman Catholic Church and Protestant faiths. During the Protestant Reformation in the early 1500s, the Catholic doctrine of the intercessory power of saints was theologically denied by Martin Luther and John Calvin on the grounds of justification by faith alone in Jesus Christ.1 The Catholic Church’s position on saints, particularly as agents for souls in purgatory, created a “soul-prayer industry,” whereby indulgences funded a variety of religious activities and institutions. Notable here were chantry foundations, which provided an endowment for the purpose of employing priests to sing masses to benefit the souls of deceased persons.2 Protestantism, by contrast, rejected belief in purgatory and the mediating power of saints. One reason the Catholic Church maintained the cult of saints throughout the centuries is to energize the Catholic membership. The nomination of candidates for sainthood begins in a local context with a cult of worshippers. The variety and specialization of would-be saints are products of the local demand for veneration.3 This process allows changes in regional preferences to be reflected in the choices of individuals nominated for sainthood. 1Philip Melanchthon, a close friend of Martin Luther and a Professor of New Testament at Wittenberg University, drafted a common confession for the Lutheran Lords and Free Territories. Known as the Augsburg Confession, the document was presented to Emperor Charles V on June 25, 1530. Article 21 of the Augsburg Confession states: "Scripture does not teach us to invoke the Saints, or to ask for help from the Saints; for it puts before us Christ as the one mediator, propitiatory, high-priest and intercessor." 2The term “soul-prayer industry” comes from Diarmaid MacCulloch, The Reformation: A History (New York, Viking Press, 2003) p.

This article argues that the elevation of ‘celebrity saints’, such as Padre Pio and Mother Theresa, can be seen as an attempt on the part of the Catholic Church to strengthen its presence within the arena of popular culture. Through a sustained programme of ‘strategic canonization’, John Paul II promoted models of sanctity that conveyed very clear social and political messages.

DiNardo of Galveston-Houston said the archdiocesan community would “unite to support and offer healing to those affected.” “As a society, we must strive for a way to end such acts of senseless gun violence in our schools and communities,” he added Cardinal Daniel N. in a May 18 statement. DiNardo The cardinal said he was “deeply saddened,” and that his prayer and the prayers of Catholics in the archdiocese are with the “victims and families of those killed and injured in this horrific tragedy.” Standing on May 16 in the St. Alphonsus Liguori Chapel in the Archbishop Edward T.
