Irenaeus was supposed to be one of those spectacularly clear, crisp, autumn afternoons when the hill- sides are ablaze with color. T But an early winter storm had rolled through the day before, dump- ing half a foot of snow on the mountaintop retreat in Allegany County. Huge tents meant to shelter the concertgoers sagged under the heavy blanket of white, and everywhere the ground was a slushy mess. When events were moved indoors, Br. Kevin Kriso, O.F.M., the newest member of the friar community at Irenaeus, remembers thinking that the sloppy weather might keep some people away. But the cars kept coming and Holy Peace Friary, the retreat’s community house, kept filling with people. Visitors who couldn’t squirm their way into the spacious main room joined those standing in the kitchen or just gave up and waited out- side, chatting and shivering on the porch. 20 B O N AV E N T U R E F A L L / W I N T E R ‘ 0 “A lot of people truly wanted to be that would be called Mt.

    SAINT BONAVENTURE CHURCH TWELFTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME | JUNE 21, 2020 As Christian stewards, our mission is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all people through word, sacrament, service and community life. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father knowing ... fear not, you are more valuable than many sparrows. – Matthew 29:31 Page two 12th Sunday in Ordinary Time PPastor’sastor’s CCornerorner Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Today I want to offer a prayer for all the Dads on this Father’s Day: God our Father, in your wisdom and love you made all things. Bless these men, that they may be strengthened as Christian fathers. Let the example of their faith and love shine forth. Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honor them always with a spirit of profound respect. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Today is the Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time. The response to today’s Psalm is, “Lord, in your great love, answer me.” I find this very appropriate. I have been doing a lot of praying during the “lock down time” of the last three months. We were ready to celebrate the opening of our church in March, only to be told to stay home. We have all been through so much. I was so happy when the Bishop offered to bless our newly retrofitted and renovated church on June 14. Originally this was going to be just a livestream Mass. Then with the help of the Bishops of California, including Bishop Vann, as well as Bishop Jaime Soto, a native son of Orange County and Bishop of Sacramento, we were allowed by the Governor to open our churches on June 14.

  • Bonaventure and the Sin of the Church
    Theological Studies 63 (2002) BONAVENTURE AND THE SIN OF THE CHURCH C. COLT ANDERSON [The author describes how the medieval tradition answered the question of whether one can legitimately speak of collective ecclesial sin. Using principally Bonaventure as a focal point, he examines how the notion of ecclesial sin functioned simultaneously as reform rhetoric and an ecclesial apologetic of humility. Finally, he applies Bonaventure’s analysis of ecclesial sin to the present crisis regarding sexual abuse of minors to show how this idea can function even today to exhort believers to maintain unity as they struggle for re- form.] VER SINCE THE Second Vatican Council declared that the Church is “at E once holy and always in need of purification,” there has been an ongoing debate over whether one may speak of the Church sinning as a collective body.1 Interest in this question has been stimulated by John Paul II’s repeated calls for the Church to repent for the many abusive policies and actions its members have engaged in over the last two millennia.2 More C. COLT ANDERSON is assistant professor in the department of church history at the University of St. Mary of the Lake/Mundelein Seminary in the archdiocese of Chicago. He received his Ph. D. from Marquette University. A specialist in the rhetoric and methods employed by the medieval reformers, he has also published a book entitled A Call to Piety: St. Bonaventure’s Collations on the Six Days (Fran- ciscan, 2002). 1 Lumen gentium no. 8, in Decrees of the Ecumenical Councils, ed.

  • THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY of AMERICA an Hexaëmeral Reading
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA An Hexaëmeral Reading of Bonaventure’s Breviloquium A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Daniel Wade McClain Washington, D.C. 2016 An Hexaëmeral Reading of Bonaventure’s Breviloquium Daniel Wade McClain, Ph.D. Director: Joshua Benson, Ph.D. This dissertation examines the structure of Bonaventure’s Breviloquium, a brief synthesis of theology produced in 1257 at the end of his tenure as Master at the University of Paris.1 Previous studies of this text have complicated its structure by emphasizing a distinction in genre between the prologue and the “body,” and by reading the “body” either in terms of the Platonic scheme of procession and return, or in terms of origin, procession, and return, which is a scheme supplied by Bonaventure himself.2 While attending to Bonaventure’s unique theology of the Trinity and Christ as 1 Cf.

But as this dissertation explores, the association of amor with fire played a precise and wide-ranging role in Bonaventure’s understanding of the soul’s motive power--its capacity to love and be united with God, especially as that capacity was demonstrated in an exemplary way through the spiritual ascent and death of St. Francis. In drawing out this association, Bonaventure develops a theory of the soul and its capacity for transformation in union with God that gives specificity to the Christian desire for self-abandonment in God and the annihilation of the soul in union with God. Though Bonaventure does not use the language of the soul coming to nothing, he describes a state of ecstasy or excessus mentis that is possible in this life, but which constitutes the death and transformation of the soul in union with God.

  • The Friendships of St. Thomas
    THE FRIENDSHIPS OF ST. THOMAS BRO. CYRIL DORE, 0 . P. T . Thomas Aquinas is a perfect type of that harmonious un­ ion of sanctity and learning which characterizes the great Doctors of the Church. A tender affection and a sympathetic understanding, which unites hearts entirely devoted to God, can be observed in all his friendships. While bearing himself affably towards all, the Angelic Doctor had but few intimate friends and these were persons of singular learning and holiness. From a consideration of these few, we can see the great influence for good which he exerted, the wide extent of his knowledge, and the deep penetration of his in­ tellectual prowess. They not only give us an insight into the reaction of personality on personality and the interplay of mind on mind, but in a very special manner, they exhibit the practical aspect of his writ­ ings. From the investigations of his biographers, the friendships of St. Thomas can be considered under four headings; namely, within his own Order, in the religious world, in the academic world, and in the political world. Amongst the members of the Dominican Order, the first friend mentioned is John of St. Julian. He is referred to as the old adviser and dear familiar friend of St. Thomas.1 This celebrated preacher directed the footsteps of the young Aquinas during the three years previous to his entrance into the Dominican Order. As a student at the University of Naples, the mind and imagination of Aquinas were captivated by the sanctity, the learning and the marvellous activ­ ity of the Dominicans.

  • Palamas and Bonaventure on the Experience of God— a Contribution to Orthodox-Roman Catholic Dialogue
    Journal of Ecumenical Studies 44 3, Summer 2009 MIRROR OF EXPERIENCE: PALAMAS AND BONAVENTURE ON THE EXPERIENCE OF GOD— A CONTRIBUTION TO ORTHODOX-ROMAN CATHOLIC DIALOGUE Rüssel Murray PRECIS In this essay, the author places into a "dialogue of love" the mystical theologies of Saints Gregory Palamas and Bonaventure of Bagnoregio, as developed in their respective masterpieces, the Defense of the Holy Hesychasts and The Soul's Journey into God. It is the author's contention that when this dialogue is engendered, one is able to see how these saints, precisely within the diversity of their respective ecclesial traditions, mirror each other's understanding of how the human person experiences God and, in the process, mirror how Orthodox and Roman Catholic faithful alike can both perceive anew and visibly witness once again to the faith, hope, and love that even now unites them as one body in Christ. / Introduction In his apostolic letter Orientale Lumen, Pope John Paul II noted, with regard to the enduring schism between the Orthodox and Roman Catholic Churches, "We have increasingly learned that it was not so much an historical episode or a mere question of preeminence that tore the fabric of unity, as it was a progres­ sive estrangement, so that the other's diversity was no longer perceived as a Rüssel Murray, OFM (Roman Catholic), is an Assistant Professor in the Dept of Systematic The­ ology at Washington (DC) Theological Union, where he has taught since 2007 He previously served on the staff of St Anthony Shrine in Boston, 1998-2000 He
