H. Newman by Fr. Gregor Lenzen, C.P. Provincial of the South German–Austrian Vice-Province of the Passionists with its seat in Munich. Translated from the German by Sandra Harper Electronic Rights 2004 – Passionist Nuns, Whitesville, KY 42378 All rights reserved The Roman Peasant No account of the conversion of John Henry Newman, the great Christian thinker and future Cardinal, should be written without a reminder of the man who received him into the Catholic Church, namely the Passionist priest Dominic Barberi (1792-1849). Newman himself commemorated him in literature in “Loss and Gain”, his story of a convert, with the following words: “On the Apennines, near Viterbo, there dwelt a shepherd-boy, in the first years of this century, whose mind had early been drawn heavenward; and, one day, as he prayed before an image of the Madonna, he felt a vivid intimation that he was destined to preach the Gospel under the northern sky. There appeared no means by which a Roman peasant should be turned into a missionary; not did the prospect open, when this youth found himself, first a lay- brother, then a Father, in the Congregation of the Passion. Yet, though no external means appeared, the inward impression did not fade; on the contrary it became more definite, and, in process of time, instead of the dim north, England was engraven on his heart.

50 Anniversary of the Beatification of Blessed Dominic Barberi 27 October 2013, Sutton, St Helens, England Dear Sisters and Brot
50th Anniversary of the Beatification of Blessed Dominic Barberi 27 October 2013, Sutton, St Helens, England Dear Sisters and Brothers of our Passionist Family, I am very happy to be with you today to lead this celebration and to share these thoughts with you on this historic occasion of the 50th anniversary of the elevation of our brother Dominic to the status of 'Blessed' by Pope Paul VI on October 27, 1963, during the Second Vatican Council. We celebrate this declaration by the Church that Dominic's life, his virtues and his self-sacrifice were such that he not only deserves our recognition, but that his life has inspired us and continues to be a beacon of light for us in our own Christian journey. I share the sentiments and hope of Archbishop Bernard Longley of Birmingham that one day our brother Dominic will receive universal recognition in the Church as a saint. I want to thank Fr John Kearns and his Council, and Fr John Sherrington his predecessor, for this invitation to be with you and to lead you in prayer and reflection today. It is a privilege to be here with you in this shrine that honours the life of Dominic Barberi, Ignatius Spencer and Elizabeth Prout. I am sure everyone is familiar with the historical outline of Dominic's life and in particular of his witness to, and accompaniment of, Blessed Cardinal Newman. Today, however, I want to speak of Dominic as one sent by God, as a witness and as a man who held in his heart the dream of God for the salvation of many and indeed for the whole world - so that ultimately we might all know the joy of a true intimacy with each other and with God.

Dominic Barberi in Nailsworth Nailsworth’S Italian Missionary – Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God by Brian Torode and Richard Barton in 1987
Dominic Barberi in Nailsworth Nailsworth’s Italian Missionary – Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God by Brian Torode and Richard Barton in 1987 (Copyright rests with Richard Barton) Tucked between the hamlets of Forest Green and Windsoredge and the heart of modern Nailsworth, overlooking the wooded hillside of Watledge, stands Northfields. The original house was built in about 1707 as the manse or parsonage for the minister of the Forest Green Congregational Chapel. From about 1800, the enlarged house served as a small grammar school which was first run by the minister and was, in 1820, known as Chapel House Academy. The house is situated along Northfields Road, the old road from Stroud into Nailsworth, which passes many of the old cottages that are situated along the spring line. This route would have been well-trodden by the many clothiers, weavers and cloth workers of the area prior to the turnpike roads being constructed along the valley bottoms. 1 Northfields Less than a quarter of a mile away, up the hill, the Independents used to meet in a forest clearing, from as early as 1672, and this outdoor gathering grew into the Forest Green Congregational Church. At this time, Nailsworth was not a town, as we know it today, but merely a collection of scattered hamlets. Forest Green was actually situated within the ancient parish of Avening and, because it was situated over two miles from the medieval parish church, there the practice of non-conformist or independent worship flourished. Quaker meetings thrived in Nailsworth from 1655 and warranted visits from George Fox on three occasions.

The Augustinian Vol VII
Online Supplement The Augustinian Vol VII . Issue I Fall 2012 Volume VII . Issue I The Augustinian Fall 2012 - Online Supplement Augustinian Cardinals Fr. Prospero Grech, O.S.A., was named by Pope Benedict XVI to the College of Cardinals on the Feast of the Epiphany, January 6, 2012. On February 18, 2012, when he received the red biretta, he joined the ranks of twelve other Augustinian Friars who have served as Cardinals. This line stretches back to 1378, when Bonaventura Badoardo da Padova, O.S.A., was named Cardinal, the first Augustinian Friar so honored. Starting with the current Cardinal, Prospero Grech, read a biographical sketch for each of the thirteen Augustinian Cardinals. Friars of the Province of Saint Thomas of Villanova Sebastiano Martinelli, O.S.A., the most recent Augustinian Cardinal prior to Cardinal Prospero Grech, O.S.A., served as Apostolic Delegate to the United States (1896 - 1902). While serving in this position, he made several trips to visit Augustinian sites. In 1897, while visiting Villanova, he was pho- tographed with the professed friars of the Province. Among these men were friars who served in leader- ship roles for the Province, at Villanova College, and in parishes and schools run by the Augustinians. Who were these friars and where did they serve? Read a sketch, taken from our online necrology, Historical information for Augustinian Cardinals for each of the 17 friars pictured with Archbishop supplied courtesy of Fr.

Newman's Ecclesial Conversion
Theological Studies 68 (2007) FROM OXFORD TO ROME: NEWMAN’S ECCLESIAL CONVERSION WALTER E. CONN Amidst multiple conflicting interpretations of Newman’s 1845 con- version, this article offers a new, synthetic interpretation by distin- guishing and integrating negative deconversion and positive conver- sion moments within a six-year, three-phase process: reflection and theological judgment, discernment and judgment of conscience, and deliberation and decision. ONVERSION IS AN ABOUT-FACE, a significant change of direction, a fun- Cdamental horizon shift from one reality to another, indeed, from one world to another.1 It often involves two distinct moments: a negative de- conversion from and a positive conversion to.2 On October 3, 1845, John Henry Newman wrote to Edward Hawkins, the provost of Oxford’s Oriel WALTER E. CONN, with a Ph.D. from Columbia University and Union Theologi- cal Seminary, is professor of ethics in the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at Villanova University, Pennsylvania. In addition to Christian ethics, his special interests include psychology and religion. Readers of Horizons will recog- nize him as its longtime editor—more than 25 years. In progress for Marquette University Press is a book on Newman that the author is tempted to title “New- man’s Own Development.” 1 See Bernard J. F. Lonergan, Method in Theology (New York: Herder & Herder, 1972) 237–43, and Walter E. Conn, Christian Conversion (1986; repr., Eugene, Oreg.: Wipf & Stock, 2006) 26–31. Basic conversion may be cognitive, affective, moral, or religious. Cognitive conversion may be of content (what one knows) or of structure (how one knows).

Reflection Wednesday Week 21 – Blessed Dominic Barberi 2020 Dominic Barberi Was Born Near Viterbo, Italy, in 1792 and Joined the Passionist Order
Reflection Wednesday Week 21 – Blessed Dominic Barberi 2020 Dominic Barberi was born near Viterbo, Italy, in 1792 and joined the Passionist Order. Responding to the call of God to work as a missionary in England, he was ordained in 1818 and worked in Italy and Belgium before coming to England in 1841. His first foundation was at Aston Hall in Staffordshire. He established four Passionist houses, and received many Anglicans into full communion, the most famous being Saint John Henry Newman, who was received at Littlemore, Oxford, on 9th October 1845. Blessed Dominic was noted for his personal warmth towards non-Catholics and for his zeal in preaching. He drew crowds despite his strong Italian accent and worked for a higher profile for the small Catholic community in England. He always wore his Passionist habit and, in 1844, organised a Corpus Christi procession through the local streets, which is believed to have been the first public procession of its kind in England in modern times. Blessed Dominic died in Reading on 27th August 1849 and was beatified by Pope Paul VI in 1963. As the psalmist says: “Blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk in his ways!” Certainly, Dominic Barberi was no hypocrite or whitewashed tomb. He was genuine through and through; filled with the love of God and the zeal of Jesus in bringing people to the truth and love of God. We owe him so much for bringing Saint John Henry Newman into the Church, because he has been an important inspiration and innovator for the Church.
