In Mark's Gospel, we see Jesus teaching and healing as a true prophet, one filled with the authority of God's own voice. The whole history of our church is filled with both true and false prophets. Some false prophets were extremely popular and quite well-versed in scripture, and even held positions of authority. But in today's Gospel we learn that Jesus' fame spread because he taught with authority; he wasn't an authority because he was popular or famous. Elsewhere, we also learn from him, in his desert temptation confrontations with Satan, that anyone can quote scripture, even against God's purposes. Today we hear that his authority was not like that of the scribes, who held the official positions of religious authority in his day. Our work is to do our best to discern the true prophets in our midst, and to be true prophets as well. The psalmist tells us how to do this: by not hardening our hearts when God speaks. f we truly listen to God, it will be God's very words filling our mouths. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. PROFETAS VERDADEROS Hoy en Deuteronomio oímos que las palabras de Dios llenarán la boca de un profeta verdadero, pero un profeta falso pondrá, por así decirlo, palabras meramente humanas en boca de Dios. En el Evangelio según san Marcos, vemos a Jesús enseñando y curando como un profeta verdadero con la autoridad de la voz de Dios. La historia de nuestra Iglesia está llena de ambos tipos de profetas. Algunos profetas falsos fueron extremadamente populares y eran muy versados en la Sagrada Escritura, incluso ocupaban puestos de autoridad eclesial. Pero en el Evangelio de hoy descubrimos que la fama de Jesús se extendió porque enseñaba con autoridad; no era una autoridad porque fuera popular o famoso. En otra parte, descubrimos con él, cuando es tentado y enfrenta a Satanás en el desierto, que cualquiera puede citar la Sagrada Escritura, incluso si estos van en contra de los propósitos de Dios. Hoy oímos que su autoridad no era como la de los escribas, que eran la autoridad oficial religiosa en su época. Nuestra tarea es hacer todo lo posible por saber identificar a los verdaderos profetas que están entre nosotros y también a ser verdaderos profetas. El salmista nos dice cómo hacerlo: no debemos endurecer nuestros corazones cuando escuchamos a Dios. Si realmente escuchamos a Dios, Dios pondrá sus palabras en nuestra boca. Copyright © J. S.

  • 1 the Origin and Early Development of All Saints University Parish
    The Origin and Early Development of All Saints University Parish: A Journey of Relationships and Persistence Turlock, California Introduction The following summary history report is primarily an attempt to factually record from first-hand knowledge, and verification from accessible surviving documents, the infancy and maturation of the Catholic Newman Student movement in Turlock from a tiny college student club through the planning and building of a multipurpose worship facility (1960-1999). It will be left to recent Pastoral Council members and other current parishioners to write a more complete and detailed modern history (2000-present) of this community, currently known as All Saints University Parish. The author takes complete and exclusive responsibility for the content of this publication, although he wishes to acknowledge that he received from All Saints staff and community members helpful cooperation, support and assistance with preparation and distribution of this report. Chaplain Salvador deserves much credit for the initial gentle insistence many years ago which led to production of this document. A final draft of this history report has been read by the three most recent All Saints priests, but no Community priest can be held accountable for report content or presentation. An attempt has been made to acknowledge all of those who have made a worthy effort or contribution to the foundational development of this church community. Most of the early pioneers can be recalled by this writer and are mentioned by name---but this is at the risk of omitting one or more who deserve remembrance and recognition also. Apologies are offered if adequate recognition of the efforts of any pioneer has been overlooked; such oversight, and/or any possible misstatement found, should be reported to the author or the Parish Office for whatever correction might be possible.

Father Cipriano de Meo, who has been an exorcist 2 Samuel 24:2, 9-17; Mark 6:1-6 since 1952, told CNA's Italian agency ACI Stampa that typically, a person is not possessed but is struggling with some other illness.

  • A History of the National Review Board
    A History of the National Review Board By Michael R. Merz A History of the National Review Board by Michael R. Merz Preface The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops commissioned this history in November, 2009, “to serve as an internal chronology” of the National Review Board. Its intended audience is present and future members of the Board, the Bishops’ Committee on Child and Youth Protection, and members and staff of the Conference. Because of a policy of rotating NRB members, there were no members in 2009 whose personal memories covered the entire history of the Board. Those changes, as well as appointment of new bishops and new members of the CPCYP and staff at the Conference make this history necessary. Hopefully it will be useful as an index to the people who have served on the NRB, the issues they have confronted, and their interactions with the Conference and its bishop members. The author served on the Board from October 2004 until June 2009, acquiring many personal experiences and reactions to events in the NRB history, many of which are reflected in this history, which ends with the June 2009 meeting of the Board. Nevertheless, this is not an interpretive history; the author was cautioned not to editorialize. Although this is a straight factual chronology, the author believes readers will be able to draw useful lessons from it so that the Board’s successes during its first seven years can be built upon and its less successful approaches can be avoided. Sources Information for the period from the adoption of the Charter to November 2004 is taken from the Board’s archival files at the USCCB and from Justice Anne Burke’s papers from her Board work, on deposit at DePaul University.
