Josemaria moved to Madrid, with the permission of his bishop, arriving on April 20, 1927. In 1923 he began studying for a law degree at the University of Zaragoza, and completed it after being ordained. Now he wanted to study for a doctorate in law, which could only be done at the Central University in Madrid. In Madrid he worked untiringly in priestly ministry. He served as chap- lain to the Foundation for the Sick, a charitable institution; prepared thou- sands of children for their First Confession and First Holy Communion; and visited thousands of the sick and those with special needs, either in their homes or in hospitals. He criss-crossed Madrid regularly to admin- ister the Anointing of the Sick and Viaticum to those who were dying, often alone, in the poorest parts of the city. * * * Barbastro, Logroño, Zaragoza, Madrid: each of these held special meaning for St. Josemaria, for different reasons. Barbastro, where he spent his childhood, held a host of memories where joys and deep sorrows inter- mingled. Logroño, where he received God’s call and his father died. Zara- goza, where he was ordained and celebrated his first solemn Mass in the Chapel of Our Lady of the Pillar. Madrid, however, would forever have a special place in his heart. He loved to say, referring to St. Paul, that Ma- drid was his Damascus. It was in Madrid that God revealed to him his will and gave him at last, after so many years, the light for which he had been begging. It was a clear, rousing call that fully confirmed the signs he had felt deep in his soul since he was a teenager. Copyright © Midwest Theological Forum The whole experience was www.theologicalforum.orgsimple, deep, and unexpected, what he called “the way God does things.” On the morning of October 2, 1928, he was making a retreat in the main monastery of the Vincentian Fathers in Madrid. He was in his room, re-reading the notes he had made over the past ten years of the various suggestions from God he perceived in his soul.

  • Ecclesiastical Circumscriptions and Their Relationship with the Diocesan Bishop

    Ecclesiastical Circumscriptions and Their Relationship with the Diocesan Bishop

    CANON 294 ECCLESIASTICAL CIRCUMSCRIPTIONS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE DIOCESAN BISHOP What is the relationship of the faithful in personal ecclesiastical circumscriptions to the local diocesan bishop? OPINION The Apostolic See, in the Annual General Statistical Questionnaire, asks diocesan bishops the number of priests in the ecclesiastical circumscription of the diocese, their country of origin and whether they are diocesan or religious. The fact that the diocesan bishop is answering these questions indicates the close relationship between himself and any personal Ecclesiastical Circumscription. Canons 215 and 216 of the 1917 Code required that ecclesiastical circumscriptions be territorial within a diocese and an apostolic indult was needed, for example, to establish personal parishes for an ethnic group of the faithful. After World War II, Pope Pius XII provided for the pastoral care of refugees and migrants in his apostolic constitution Exsul Familia in 1952. Chaplains for migrants were granted special faculties to facilitate pastoral care without receiving the power of jurisdiction or governance. The Second Vatican Council admitted personal criteria in ecclesiastical organisation. The decree Christus Dominus 11 held that the essential element of a particular Church is personal, being a “portion of the people of God”. Personal factors are crucial to determine the communitarian aspect of the makeup of a community. After Vatican II, the Code of Canon Law needed revision. The Synod of Bishops in 1967 approved the principles to guide the revision of the code. The eighth principle stated: “The principle of territoriality in the exercise of ecclesiastical government is to be revised somewhat, for contemporary apostolic factors seem to recommend personal jurisdictional units.

    La Primera Romería De San Josemaría a La Virgen De Torreciudad

    LA PRIMERA ROMERÍA DE SAN JOSEMARÍA A LA VIRGEN DE TORRECIUDAD CONSTANTINO ÁNCHEL En 1984, en el noveno centenario de la Virgen de Torreciudad, el histo- riador José Orlandis rememoraba el acontecer de los siglos pasados, testigos de la devoción a santa María en este lugar altoaragonés; y escribía: “Esta his- toria quedaría incompleta si nos limitásemos a evocar tiempos pretéritos, por viejos y venerables que sean. La historia de Torreciudad llega viva hasta nues- tros días, y ha de recoger un capítulo novísimo, digno coronamiento de tan- tos siglos de fe cristiana y de piedad mariana. Este capítulo se halla íntimamente ligado a la vida del Fundador del Opus Dei, y en él se inscribe la construcción del nuevo Santuario”1. Se refiere Orlandis a la primera visita a Nuestra Señora de Torreciudad de san Josemaría, quien años después lo recordaba así: “Me trajeron mis padres. Mi madre me llevó en sus brazos a la Virgen. Iba sentada en la caballería, no a la inglesa, sino en silla, como enton- ces se hacía, y pasó miedo porque era un camino muy malo”2. De las palabras transcritas se desprende que sus recuerdos no provienen de su propia memo- ria, sino de los relatos oídos tantas veces a su madre y a los suyos. Es, por tanto, lógico que no dé más referencias para datar con una cierta precisión la fecha de su primera visita a la ermita de Torreciudad. El objeto de este traba- jo será aportar elementos que permitan encuadrar, con una probabilidad fun- dada, el tiempo y el momento de la citada romería a la casa de la Virgen.

    Josemaría Escrivá and controversy, both within the Catholic Church and in the worldwide press.[8][9] Several independent jour- nalists who have investigated the history of Opus Dei, among them Vatican analyst John L. Allen, Jr., have argued that many of these accusations are unproven or have grown from allegations by enemies of Escrivá and his organization.[8][10][11][12] Cardinal Albino Luciani (later Pope John Paul I),[13] John Paul II, Benedict XVI, Francis, and many Catholic leaders have strongly en- dorsed Escrivá's teaching on the universal call to holiness, the role of laity, and sanctification of work.[14] Accord- ing to Allen, among Catholics Escrivá is “reviled by some and venerated by millions more”.[8] 1 Biography Coat of arms of Josemaría Escrivá 1.1 Early life Saint Josemaría Escrivá de Balaguer (9 January 1902 – 26 June 1975; also known as José María or Jose- José María Mariano Escrivá y Albás was born to José maría Escrivá de Balaguer y Albás, born José María [1] Escrivá y Corzán and his wife, María de los Dolores Al- Mariano Escriba Albás ) was a Roman Catholic priest bás y Blanc on 9 January 1902, in the small town of from Spain who founded Opus Dei, an organization of Barbastro, in Huesca, Aragon, Spain, the second of six laypeople and priests dedicated to the teaching that every- children and the first of two sons.

    journal of jesuit studies 7 (2020) 592-615 brill.com/jjs Johann Baptist Franzelin (1816–86): A Jesuit Cardinal Shaping the Official Teaching of the Church at the Time of the First Vatican Council Bernhard Knorn, S.J. Philosophisch-Theologische Hochschule Sankt Georgen, Frankfurt am Main, Germany [email protected] Abstract Johann Baptist Franzelin (1816–86), a Jesuit from South Tyrol, was an important sys- tematic theologian at the Collegio Romano. Against emerging neo-Scholasticism, he supported the growing awareness of the need for historical context and to see theo- logical doctrines in their development over time. He was an influential theologian at the First Vatican Council. Created cardinal by Pope Pius ix in 1876, he engaged in the work of the Roman Curia, for example against the German Kulturkampf and for the Third Plenary Council of the Catholic Church in the usa (Baltimore, 1884). This article provides an overview of Franzelin’s biography and analyzes his contributions to theol- ogy and church politics. Keywords Johann Baptist Franzelin – Jesuit cardinal – Collegio Romano – systematic theology – neo-Scholasticism – First Vatican Council – Kulturkampf – Roman Curia Johann Baptist Franzelin (1816–86) was an Austrian Jesuit cardinal, who is largely unknown today. However, working silently behind the scenes, he has arguably shaped the decisions of the First Vatican Council and of Roman theology in general as only few others did—just before the triumph of neo- Scholasticism changed the course of this theology dramatically. His life can be divided into two periods.

Opus Dei is an institution of the Catholic Church whose mission is to put into practice the doctrine of the universal call to holiness and to promote among people of all social classes the sanctification of professional work in the circumstances of ordinary life. Its legal status is that of a personal prelature, the Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei or simply Opus Dei. In other words, it is a universal hierarchical institution of the prelature type, as provided for in the Second Vatican Council, established to undertake special pastoral tasks and endowed with its own statutes. Through the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross, an association of clerics intrinsically linked to the prelature, it helps diocesan priests live the doctrine of the universal call to holiness in the exercise of their holy ministry.
