  • If the Hat Fits, Wear It!
    If the hat fits, wear it! By Canon Jim Foley Before I put pen to paper let me declare my interests. My grandfather, Michael Foley, was a silk hatter in one of the many small artisan businesses in Claythorn Street that were so characteristic of the Calton district of Glasgow in late Victorian times. Hence my genetic interest in hats of any kind, from top hats that kept you at a safe distance, to fascinators that would knock your eye out if you got too close. There are hats and hats. Beaver: more of a hat than an animal As students for the priesthood in Rome the wearing of a ‘beaver’ was an obligatory part of clerical dress. Later, as young priests we were required, by decree of the Glasgow Synod, to wear a hat when out and about our parishes. But then, so did most respectable citizens. A hat could alert you to the social standing of a citizen at a distance of a hundred yards. The earliest ‘top’ hats, known colloquially as ‘lum’ hats, signalled the approach of a doctor, a priest or an undertaker, often in that order. With the invention of the combustion engine and the tram, lum hats had to be shortened, unless the wearer could be persuaded to sit in the upper deck exposed to the elements with the risk of losing the hat all together. I understand that the process of shortening these hats by a few inches led to a brief revival of the style and of the Foley family fortunes, but not for long.

  • How Do Cardinals Choose Which Hat to Wear?
    How Do Cardinals Choose Which Hat to Wear? By Forrest Wickman March 12, 2013 6:30 PM A cardinal adjusts his mitre cap. Photo by Alessia Pierdomenico/Reuters One-hundred-fifteen Roman Catholic cardinals locked themselves up in the Vatican today to select the church’s next pope. In pictures of the cardinals, they were shown wearing a variety of unusual hats. How do cardinals choose their hats? To suit the occasion, to represent their homeland, or, sometimes, to make a personal statement. Cardinals primarily wear one of three different types. The most basic hat is a skullcap called the zucchetto (pl. zucchetti), which is a simple round hat that looks like a beanie or yarmulke. Next is the collapsible biretta, a taller, square-ridged cap with three peaks on top. There are certain times when it’s customary to put on the biretta, such as when entering and leaving church for Mass, but it’s often just personal preference. Cardinals wear both of these hats in red, which symbolizes how each cardinal should be willing to spill his blood for the church. (The zucchetto is actually worn beneath the biretta.) Some cardinals also wear regional variations on the hat, such as the Spanish style, which features four peaks instead of three. On special occasions, such as when preparing to elect the next leader of their church, they may also wear a mitre, which is a tall and usually white pointed hat. The mitre is the same style of cap commonly worn by the pope, and it comes in three different styles with varying degrees of ornamentation, according to the occasion.

  • Roman Catholic Womenpriests and the Problem of Women’S Ordination
    TRANSGRESSIVE TRADITIONS: ROMAN CATHOLIC WOMENPRIESTS AND THE PROBLEM OF WOMEN’S ORDINATION Jill Marie Peterfeso A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Religious Studies. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Laurie Maffly-Kipp Julie Byrne Todd Ochoa Tony Perucci Randall Styers Thomas A. Tweed ©2012 Jill Marie Peterfeso ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JILL MARIE PETERFESO: Transgressive Traditions: Roman Catholic Womenpriests and the Problem of Women’s Ordination (Under the direction of Laurie Maffly-Kipp) Although the Roman Catholic Church bars women from ordained priesthood, since 2002 a movement called Roman Catholic Womenpriests (RCWP) claims to have ordained approximately 120 women as deacons, priests, and bishops in Europe, North America, and Latin America. Because the women deliberately break Canon Law—and specifically c. 1024, which reads, “Only a baptized man can validly receive sacred ordination”—RCWP acknowledges that its ordinations are illegal, but the group claims nonetheless to perform valid ordinations because they stand in the traditional line of apostolic succession. They retain the modifier “Roman” to signal their lineage within Roman Catholic tradition, yet RCWP’s stated goal is not simply to insert women into the existing Church structures, but rather to “re-imagine, re-structure, and re-shape the priesthood and therefore the church.” This dissertation investigates the

  • Coat of Arms of the See of Rockville Centre, the Diocese in Which He Was Born and Raised and Which He Serves As a Priest and Bishop
    Blazon and Explanation of the Armorial Bearings of the Most Reverend Richard G. Henning, DD Titular Bishop of Tabla and Auxiliary Bishop of Rockville Centre, NY BLAZON: Azure, within a bordure parted wavy Argent and Gules an escallop shell Argent. The shield is ensigned with an episcopal cross Or charged with five jewels Gules and a bishop’s galero with cords and twelve tassels flanking the shield disposed in three rows of one, two and three all Vert. On a scroll below the shield is the motto, “Put Out Into The Deep”. EXPLANATION: The armorial bearings of Bishop Richard Henning evoke his birthplace, his ministry and his personal devotion. The shield is composed of a design depicted in red (Gules), white (Argent) and blue (Azure) which are the national colors of the United States. Both the blue background and the single escallop shell allude to the sea as evoking the Bish- op’s own background and the shell is also borrowed from the coat of arms of the See of Rockville Centre, the diocese in which he was born and raised and which he serves as a priest and bishop. The shell image also recalls the Bishop’s heritage in the Diocese of Brooklyn, dedi- cated to its patron, St. James. The ordination of the bishop takes place on the eve of the Feast of St. James. In concert with the Bishop’s motto, the shell is a traditional symbol of baptism and pilgrimage. It is in the depths of these waters that Christians find their salvation in Jesus Christ.

    Page 1 CARMEL MISSION BASILICA (1771) February 26, 2017 Carmel Mission Basilica 3080 Rio Road Carmel, CA 93923▪(831) 624-1271 www.carmelmission.org Founded 1771 by St. Junípero Serra Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time February 26, 2017 Can a mother forget her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should she forget, I will never forget you. — Isaiah 49:15 In the first reading from the Book of Isaiah we hear God’s eternal promise to God’s people” I will never forget you.” Being a child of God means you can be assured that you will never be forgotten, never be abandoned, and never be alone. What a promise! But for this promise to be completely fulfilled it is not enough for us to simply bask in the radiance of God’s unfailing love: we must challenge ourselves to be the mirror that reflects this love into the world. Imagine a world in which each person knew that they would never be abandoned or forgotten. Imagine the change this could make in the cultures of fear and distrust we see and experience in the world. We cannot love with the same limitless perfection as God, but we can try to emulate God’s fierce persistence in showing love in our individual lives. We can each make the promise to another individual “ I will never forget you.” We can, with God’s help, ensure that this person does not feel abandoned and is never alone. Then they, empowered by our reflection of God’s endless love, can in turn shine it on one other person until someday all people on God’s earth, who are already loved completely by God, can fully experience this love and trust in the promise that they will never be forgotten.

  • An Tir Heraldic Achievements Ithra Class
    AnTir Heraldic ACHIEVEMENTS Document History: Compiled and composed by Torric inn Bjorn, May XXVIII/1993 - Edited and revised by Elizabeth Braidwood and Frederic Badger, May XXXIV/1999 - Rewritten and revised by Frederic Badger, October XXXIX/2004. This document is based on the result of a meeting that was held at the 1993 AnTir Kingdom Heraldic Symposium. Attendees included: Laurel Sovereign of Arms Bruce Draconarius of Mistholme, Kingdom Staff heralds including Black Lion Drogo the Forgetful, representatives of the Scribal authority including (we believe) Chief Scribe Eleanor the Clumsy and other interested parties. Further information was added in discussion with Black Lion Guerin de Bourgogne and arranged and updated by Zenobia Naphtali, Elizabeth Braidwood, Celdae the Seeker and Frederic Badger. This format was edited and revised by Bronwen Elgars, February XXXVIII/2004 for the purposes of printing a pamphlet as a teaching aid for the An Tir Heraldic Achievements Ithra class. Rewritten and revised by Bronwen Sable Sable, February XLIV/2010 for addition of pamphlet form to the An Tir College of Scribes website. What is an Achievement? An Achievement is a “formal” display of personal or civic armory. Armory is often used in informal methods of display, such as painting the heraldic device onto personal belongings or stitching it onto a field banner. Sometimes, however, a formal display of personal armory is called for, as on an official document detailing an Award, Grant or Patent of Arms modeled after similar period recordings. An Achievement always includes some sort of shield shape, upon which the arms are rendered. It may also contain other elements, called “addiments” which surround the shield.

We are once again faced with the prospect of no public Masses until then. This means that most Catholics in California may go the entire Easter Season without receiving the Holy Eucharist. As a priest, this is a painful and difficult reality that requires us to rethink how we minister to the faithful in this time of crisis. We are realizing more and more that livestreamed Masses are not enough—the people want the Lord Himself! After much discussion and much more prayer, the Cathedral Staff and I have decided to undertake a bold, creative, yet prudent and safe way to minister to the people who hunger for Christ so much. On Sunday, May 10 (Mother’s Day) and Sunday, May 17 (Sixth Sunday of Easter), we will be offering Holy Communion to all those who come to the Cathedral Parking Garage between 9:30 AM and 10:45 AM. Simply drive with your families into the Garage through the 21st Street entrance, going straight toward the exit.
