  • The Word from Lansing: with Gratitude for African-American Catholics
    The Word from Lansing: With Gratitude for African-American Catholics By Paul A. Long July 16, 2021 Last month, communities across the state commemorated the events of June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—when Union Major General Gordon Granger and two thousand Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, the furthest outpost of the Confederacy. There Major General Granger announced General Order Number 3, which proclaimed freedom from slavery in Texas. While the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution officially outlawed the practice of slavery in America, Juneteenth is also referred to as Freedom Day, Jubilee Day, Liberation Day, and Emancipation Day. The observance brings to mind the devastating effect of slavery, primarily for the families whose ancestors experienced enslavement. At the same time, it reminds Americans of two important truths: 1. Freedom had to be fought for; it was not fully realized for all at the nation’s founding. Every generation must continue to fight for and protect it. 2. The struggle for racial equality and the importance of reflection and action regarding the status of race relations within the country is ongoing. Despite experiences of personal and, at times, institutional racism, African-American men and women have risen up to inspire a more equal and just society. Just a few of such American heroes include Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Booker T. Washington, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., and Jackie Robinson. African-American Catholics have also contributed substantially to the shaping of communities across the country. While nearly a dozen individuals of American heritage have been canonized, six African-Americans are in the early stages of examination for sainthood.

  • Understanding Sainthood
    Chapter 1 Understanding Sainthood In This Chapter ▶ Defining what it means to be a saint ▶ Looking at the canonization process and how it has changed ▶ Honoring and celebrating the saints ▶ Following the examples set forth by the saints n this chapter, we discuss the idea of sainthood in general, especially Ihow the Catholic Church understands the notion of holiness in its mem- bers. We take you through the canonization process and explain how it has evolved over the centuries. We explain how saints are venerated, and we dis- cuss the unique role patron saints can play in your spiritual life. Finally, we examine the reasons for pursuing a saintly life and the means to achieve it. Ordinary Saints versus Official Saints In the Catholic Church, anyone who goes to heaven is considered a saint. Those who make it to heaven but are never canonized are still as saintly as those named so by the pope; in fact, the unnamed and unnumbered saints in heaven are in the majority, and God alone knows who they are and how numerous. These ordinary saints lived normal lives but did so with faith in and love for the Lord. Official saints, on the other hand, are men and women who livedCOPYRIGHTED lives worthy of recognition, honor, MATERIAL and imitation. The Catholic Church has never taught that a person has to be perfect or sinless to get to heaven. In fact, it teaches that every man and woman who has been born since Adam and Eve (except for the Virgin Mary, by a special divine grace from God) suffers from the effects of original sin.

  • HLOND, Augustus Joseph, Cardinal and Primate of Poland, Founder of the Society of Christ, Servant of God
    HLOND, Augustus Joseph, Cardinal and Primate of Poland, founder of the Society of Christ, Servant of God. Born 5 July 1881 at Brzęczkowice, a small village in Upper Silesia, then under Prussia. He was the second of eleven children, four of whom became Salesians of Don Bosco. His father, Jan, worked on the railway and his mother Maria Imiela was a housewife. His parents passed on to him a deep attachment to Christian values, cultivating a special devotion to Our Lady, and preserving a healthy attachment to Polish traditions. 1. After completing elementary school at Zawodzie (Katowice), he began to attend the secondary school in Mysłowice (Katowice) which he then left at 12 years of age, together with his brother Ignatius, to go to Italy attracted by the reputation of Don Bosco. In October 1893, he was accepted into the College of Turin-Valsalice where he was able to continue his secondary studies; there with other young Poles he founded the Association of St Stanislaus Kostka. A year later he was transferred to the Salesian house of Lombriasco (Turin), where he continued his studies. During these years of secondary schooling in the Salesian Colleges his desire to enter the Salesian Society matured. In October 1896 he was accepted into the Salesian Novitiate in Foglizzo Canavese (Turin) and on 12 November received the clerical habit from the hands of the Rector Major, Blessed Michael Rua; it was he the following year who was present when he took his perpetual vows on 3 October. His intellectual gifts and human qualties led the superiors to send him to Rome to the Gregorian University where he attended the lectures of, among others, Fathers G.

McCarrick visited the Archdiocese. During his stay, Cardinal McCarrick, Archbishop Emeritus of Washington D.C., celebrated Mass at Bishop McGuinness High School. Following Mass he enjoyed an informal chat with students. Archbishop Beltran and Cardinal McCarrick then visited the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial and Saint Joseph's Old Cathedral. The two friends also made the drive to Okarche and the gravesite of Father Stanley Rother where both men prayed for the canonization of the slain Oklahoma priest. They later visited Holy Trinity Church where Father Rother was baptized and where a statue is dedicated to his memory. On Tuesday afternoon, Cardinal McCarrick spent two hours in an informal session with priests at the Catholic Pastoral Center. About 30 Oklahoma priests attended and later enjoyed dinner with the Cardinal. This was Cardinal McCarrick's first visit to Oklahoma.
