D’abord des ra- gots de comptoir : Sarkozy est « susceptible » et « autoritai- re », Merkel « rarement créati- ve », Berlusconi « vaniteux » et bambochard, Poutine est le « mâle dominant » dans le couple qu’il forme avec le Pré- sident Medvedev, etc. Conster- nant.

  • Becoming Everyday Saints with Archbishop Fulton Sheen
    Becoming everyday saints with Archbishop Fulton Sheen Growing up in northern Illinois, the name of Archbishop Fulton Sheen was a popular one in the Catholic community. Everyone seemed to have a story about the archbishop or have a cousin or grandparent who was distantly related to him. During my college years, the devotion to the beloved future saint was even more apparent through the many people I met from the Diocese of Peoria, Illinois, where Fulton Sheen grew up and was ordained a priest. I first encountered the archbishop during a high school Steubenville conference, when I bought his book on St. Thérèse, around the time that Pope Benedict XVI declared him venerable. At the time, I only knew about him because of the developments in his cause for canonization, but this book, “Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s St. Thérèse — A Treasured Love Story,” both changed my relationship with my favorite saint while introducing me to another. The book contains 11 sermons that Archbishop Sheen preached in 1973 leading up the 100th anniversary of St. Thérèse’s birth, and, as the introduction of the book explains, “Not only does it reveal the essential Thérèse, it also reveals the essential Fulton Sheen.” With the news of his upcoming beatification and the recently approved miracle regarding the health of a boy from the Peoria diocese, I decided it was time to return to this book and rediscover why it touched me so deeply. It didn’t take long for me to recall how relevant Sheen’s words are for our current world — especially with the disheartening revelations within the Church in the last year and the push to empower the laity.

  • Chiara Badano, a Young Italian Woman Who Responded to God's Call in a Variety of Ways Throughout Her Short Life
    Chiaa Badano: Clea Light Intoductio This week the Catholic Church in Scotland celebrates Vocations Awareness Week. 'Vocation' means calling, specifically a calling from God. In the Church and in the school, when we hear the word 'vocation' we probably think of God calling people to serve Him as priests, deacons and religious sisters. We believe, however, that everyone has a 'vocation', that God calls everyone to some form of service in the Church and in the community. In this lesson, we're calling to look at the life of Chiara Badano, a young Italian woman who responded to God's call in a variety of ways throughout her short life. The Backgond Troubled Times: Chiara was born in 1971 in Sassarolo, a small village in the Northwest of Italy. Her father, Ruggero, was a truck driver and her mother, Maria, was a housewife. The couple had waited and prayed eleven years to have Chiara and they believed that she was a gift from God. Things, however, were difficult for the family, the community and the Italian nation at this time. Ruggero was frequently without work, there was little employment in the local area and Italy was going through a time of massive, political and social upheaval called by historians 'anni di piombo' - 'the years of lead'. During this time groups from the far-right and far-left of the political spectrum carried out assassinations, bombings and kidnappings. Despite all these difficulties and challenges, however, the family were happy and were blessed with a deep faith in God An Apple A Day When she was 18, a family friend asked Chiara what was her most valuable childhood memory.

  • By Duccio Di Buoninsegna, C. 1311 AD from Maesta Altarpiece of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Mary of T
    Novena for Vocations “Pentecost” by Duccio di Buoninsegna, c. 1311 A.D. From Maesta altarpiece of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption, Siena, Tuscany. What is a Novena? A novena is a classic form of Catholic devotion, where on nine successive days, a prayer is said for some special occasion or intention. The practice of praying novenas is scripturally based, modeled after the nine days of consecutive prayer that our Blessed Mother, the Apostles, and other disciples of Christ prayed together in the Upper Room between Our Lord’s Ascension into heaven and the descent of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost. Prayed in communion with the Saints, novenas often petition the intercession of specially selected Saints (our exemplary role models in the spiritual life). Let us pray together, with the Angels and Saints, for an increase in vocations to the Priesthood and Religious life in the Archdiocese of Washington. Let us also pray for the sanctity of all vocations: for holy marriages in the Church, for Deacons, and those that dedicate their lives to Christ in the chaste single life. May the Lord of the harvest send many to work in His vineyard! (The Novena begins on the next page.) Day 1: Monday The Blessed Virgin Mary With special focus on the virtues of purity and chastity Our Lady, Queen of the Clergy, we ask your intercession today for an increase in vocations to the Priesthood and Religious life. Blessed Mary, you are the Immaculate Conception, the Ark of the New Covenant, and the fairest of our race.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See POST-SYNODAL APOSTOLIC EXHORTATION CHRISTUS VIVIT OF THE HOLY FATHER FRANCIS TO YOUNG PEOPLE AND TO THE ENTIRE PEOPLE OF GOD 1. Christ is alive! He is our hope, and in a wonderful way he brings youth to our world, and everything he touches becomes young, new, full of life. The very first words, then, that I would like to say to every young Christian are these: Christ is alive and he wants you to be alive! 2. He is in you, he is with you and he never abandons you. However far you may wander, he is always there, the Risen One. He calls you and he waits for you to return to him and start over again. When you feel you are growing old out of sorrow, resentment or fear, doubt or failure, he will always be there to restore your strength and your hope. 3. With great affection, I address this Apostolic Exhortation to all Christian young people. It is meant to remind you of certain convictions born of our faith, and at the same time to encourage you to grow in holiness and in commitment to your personal vocation. But since it is also part of a synodal process, I am also addressing this message to the entire People of God, pastors and faithful alike, since all of us are challenged and urged to reflect both on the young and for the young. Consequently, I will speak to young people directly in some places, while in others I will propose some more general considerations for the Church’s discernment.
