St. Peter Canisius December 21 Vol. 3 No. 12 PARISH NEWSLETTER DECEMBER, 2015 ST. PETER CANISIUS DECEMBER 21 eter, A Dutch man, was born in 1521. His father wanted him to be a lawyer. To please P him, young Peter began to study law before he had finished all his other studies. Soon enough, however, he realized that he would never be happy in that life. About that time, people all over were talking about the wonderful preaching of Blessed Peter Faber. He was one of the first members of the Jesuit order. When Peter Canisius listened to him, he knew he, too, would be happy serving God as a Jesuit. So he joined the order. After more years of study and prayer, he was ordained a priest. The great St. Ignatius soon realized what an obedient and zealous apostle St. Peter Canisius was. He sent him to Germany where Peter labored for forty years. It would be hard to name all St. Peter Canisius great works, prayers and sacrifices during that time. His concern was to save many cities of Germany from the heresies of the day. He also labored to bring back to the Catholic Church those who had accepted false teachings. It is said that he traveled about twenty thousand miles in thirty years. This he did on foot or on horseback. In spite of all this, St. Peter Canisius still found time to write books on the faith. He realized how important books are. So he made a campaign to stop bad books from being sold. And he did all he could to spread good books to teach the faith. The two catechisms St. Peter Canisius wrote were so popular that they were printed over two hundred times and were translated into fifteen languages. To those who said he worked too hard, St. Peter Canisius would answer, “If you have too much to do, with God’s help, you will find time to do it all.” This wonderful saint died in 1597. He was proclaimed a doctor of the Church by Pope Pius XI in 1925. We want to learn about our faith with enthusiasm, the way St. Peter Canisius did. We can ask him to help us study hard and frequently. ~Saints for Young Readers for every day - Vol. 2 2 Confirmation Preparation Meetings Confirmation prep meetings for the 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students and their parents were held on Sunday morning, Nov. 15, and Monday evening, Nov. 16. During these meetings a drawing was held for the students. The “prize” consisted of a piece of white carpet that was used at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia when Pope Francis celebrated Mass there on Sept. 27. White, gold, and gray carpet was installed on the area surrounding the altar and was walked upon by the Pope. Robert Calvert, Grade 6, and Frankie Cocozza, Grade 8, were the winners of a piece of the white carpet which was the main color installed. They were both excited to receive the carpet and Robert’s mom, Silvia Calvert, has shared her intention to have the carpet and letter of authentication framed!!

Brian is pictured with Rev. Pervaiz Indrias, Homilist. 4 THIRST FOR CHRIST There is a spiritual thirst, as we read in the psalms: “I thirst for the living God, when will I appear before him?” As he says “I thirst,” our Lord is thirsting for return to his Father. The night before, at the Last Supper, he prayed to his Father and asked for the glory that was his before the foundations of the world were laid. He told his disciples that he was going to prepare a place for them. Now he has this thirst, to return again to his Father. Applying that spiritual thirst of our Lord to ourselves, what is it that we have if we love the Lord? We have a thirst for holiness. We want to be saints. We want to be happy, to be at peace on the inside, to be one with the Father. What is sanctity? Sanctity is Christ living in me so that his mind possesses my mind and I am governed by his truth. That’s sanctity. He’s in my will, and all things that are pleasing to him I do. He’s in my body, so that my body becomes a tabernacle. Sanctity is not only Christ in me, it’s making Christ known to others. It’s being loveable. It’s making Christ loveable. When others see us, they see Christ. ~Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen EUCHARISTIC ADORATION CHAPEL Committed guardians are needed for the following hours: Sunday 6:00 AM Sunday 7:00 PM Monday 3:00 AM Monday 1:00 PM Friday 1:00 AM Please consider giving one hour to Jesus.

  • Peter Canisius and the Protestants a Model of Ecumenical Dialogue?
    journal of jesuit studies 1 (2014) 373-399 brill.com/jjs Peter Canisius and the Protestants A Model of Ecumenical Dialogue? Hilmar M. Pabel Department of History, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada [email protected] Abstract Some modern interpreters have incorrectly suggested that Peter Canisius was an ecumenist before his time. Their insistence on his extraordinary kindness towards Protestants does not stand the test of the scrutiny of the relevant sources. An analysis of Canisius’s advice on how Jesuits should deal with “heretics” in Germany, of his catechisms, and of his polemical works reveals a typical Catholic controversialist of the Reformation era. Canisius was disposed to display hostility, more than good will, to Protestants. Keywords Peter Canisius – Protestants – Reformation – apologetics Introduction: The Celebration of a Saint Peter Canisius’s path to canonization was a long one. He died in 1597. The for- mal ecclesiastical process to declare him a saint began in 1625, but his beatifica- tion, solemnly pronounced by Pope Pius IX, had to wait until 1864.1 In Militantis ecclesiae (1897), Pope Leo XIII marked the 300th anniversary of Canisius’s death by hailing him as “the second apostle of Germany.” St. Boniface, the eighth- century Anglo-Saxon missionary, was the first. Pius XI not only canonized Canisius in 1925; he also declared him a doctor of the universal church.2 This 1 Forian Rieß, Der selige Petrus Canisius aus der Gesellschaft Jesu (Freiburg im Breisgau: Herder, 1865), 552, 554. 2 Otto Braunsberger, “Sanctus Petrus Canisius Doctor Ecclesiae,” Gregorianum 6 (1925): 338. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2014 | doi 10.1163/22141332-00103002Downloaded from Brill.com09/26/2021 04:37:36AM via free access <UN> 374 Pabel was a rare distinction, as Yves de la Brière reported two weeks later in the Jesuit journal Études.

  • Ignatius and Ministry with Women
    IGNATIUS AND MINISTRY WITH WOMEN By JAMES W. REITES UCH CAN BE SAID ABOUT Ignatius Loyola's ministry to women, but not much has been written dealing with his collaborative ministry with women. 1 Yet it is clear that M women played a significant role in that ministry. Igna- tian spirituality, a spirituality of action, has been attractive to women from the beginning. 2 During Ignatius' day, when there were few avenues open to women for active apostolic life, that spirituality led to a collaborative ministry between Ignatius and women. What follows is firstly an attempt to sketch how women were co-workers with Ignatius and the earlyJesuits, and secondly to see if there is an overall pattern in these relationships that might present us with insights for creating collaborative ministries today. There are three main areas where Ignatius engaged in collabora- tive ministry with women: patronage, where women gave financial support for various apostolic works; advocacy, where Ignatius sought their influence to foster ministerial work; and active collaborative work, where women actively engaged in apostolic ministry. Many of these overlap; some women were involved in all three, some in only two or one. We will give examples of the most prominent women in Ignatius' ministry with women, choosing one area for each. An initial, brief reflection on the personal context of Ignatius' dealings with women will give us a better understanding of this collaborative ministry. Personal context It all began with a gift, from a woman to a woman. On September 2, 1498, the day of her wedding to Ignatius' brother, Don Martfn Garcfa de Loyola, Dofia Magdalena de Araoz received a gift of a painting of Mary from Queen Isabella the Catholic.

Their mis- sion came in response to a request by King John III of Portugal (1502– 1557), who had asked Ignatius for several Jesuits to convert the peoples in his colonial empire. Ignatius’s initial choices did not pan out. Bobadilla fell seriously ill, so Ignatius turned to his dear friend Xavier, who is said to have replied with a free and simple, “Here I am.” But when Xavier and Rodrigues arrived at the royal court, they impressed the king so much that he asked Rodrigues to remain and work in Portugal instead.
