Eucharistic Guardians Needed As the ministry chair for Eucharistic Adoration, I am sending you this email to personally invite you to spend time in our lovely Adoration Chapel during the year. Additionally, we are in need of Guardians (people who commit to one hour of time a week) for specific time slots which you can view on the schedule located in the binder on the table across from Our Lady of the Knights Adora- tion Chapel's door. Please prayerfully consider becoming a Guardian. For safety purposes, we have added a coded lock to the Chapel door as we intend to have occasional 24 hour Ado- ration days in the future. The code for the door is 1979*. If you should forget this code, it is also in the Adoration sign-in binder on the weekly schedule under the Friday title. If you are already a Guardian, thank you for your commitment. We hope your time with Jesus has sent you many blessings and graces.

Because we are still 275 meals behind last year, we need three more nights of near 1,300 to beat last year. It is difficult, but not impossible. We ask everyone to bring their families and neighbors to the last three events to continue our record streak.

Only those youngsters who had won or tied their divisions previously were allowed to compete. Our district was able to send seven youngsters on to the state finals in Macon, Georgia on March 16th. Each participant got a souvenir medal and a KofC basketball for participating. Some of our winners with council connections are shown below. Bruce Malinoff sent us the left picture showing him demonstrating proper dunking techniques to the young basketballers. Only later did we discover that he and Bryan Kler had conspired to photo- shop the picture. Bruce has never come close to dunking a basketball (even when starting from a chair or a six-foot ladder). 5 5 Additional Acolytes Needed All Saints Council 11402 has a special parish service ministry that may be unique over all the councils in the world. We know of no other council that provides rotating teams of knight altar servers that assist on the altar at all funeral Masses in their parish. We currently have about 70 brothers assigned to 5 teams that provide this service first requested by former pastor Monsignor Donald Kiernan in 1998. Acolytes wear matching outfits composed of navy blue blazers, medium grey dress slacks, white shirts, black shoes and socks. The council provides each with a blue Knights of Columbus logo tie worth $30. A full complement of Mass acolytes might consist of a cross bearer, two torch bearers, two water and wine handlers, and an incense bearer. Team members alternate roles and learn them all in good time. Visitors to All Saints marvel at the reverence and professionalism of the formal presentation that each parish funeral exhibits. There are about 50 funerals per year at All Saints, and some other special Mass occasions utilize our teams as well. If you work during the week, we can still use you on Saturdays or for special evening Masses. If you have been wondering how to serve your council and the parish in an enjoyable and meaningful way, please contact our Acolyte Director, Norbert Braza, at 770-393-8645 or [email protected] . No previous altar server experience is necessary, you will be trained. Any knight is eligible.

  • POPE Benedict XVI's Resignation Has Sparked Calls For
    [POPE Benedict XVI's resignation has sparked calls for his successor to come from Africa, home to the world's fastest-growing population and the front line of key issues facing the Roman Catholic Church. Around 15 per cent of the world's 1. 2 billion Catholics live in Africa and the per centage has expanded significantly in recent years in comparison to other parts of the world. Much of the Catholic Church's recent growth has come in the developing world, with the most rapid expansions in Africa and Southeast Asia. Names such as Ghana's Peter Turkson and Nigerian John Onaiyekan have been mentioned as potential papal material, as has Francis Arinze, also from Nigeria and considered a possibility when Benedict was elected, but who is now 80. ] BURUNDI : RWANDA : Protests in Rwanda Over Genocide Acquittals February 11, 2013 /(AP)/abcnews. go. com KIGALI, Rwanda Hundreds of Rwandans on Monday marched to the offices of the United Nations tribunal set up to try key cases related to Rwanda's 1994 genocide to protest the court's decision to acquit two former cabinet ministers accused of masterminding killings. The protesters, bearing placards denouncing the Arusha, Tanzania-based International Criminal Tribunal of Rwanda (ICTR), mainly constituted of survivors of the genocide, youths and students who accused the tribunal of denying justice to genocide victims. "The international community failed in their response to protect the Tutsi from being killed and now it is failing to provide justice to survivors," one of the banners read. More than 500,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed during Rwanda's 1994 genocide.

  • To Better Protect God’S People
    To better protect God’s people When future historians write their histories of U.S. Catholicism, some may give Gilbert Gauthe a paragraph all to himself. Not for anything honorable that he did, but for something supremely dishonorable: He, as much as anyone, transformed sexual abuse of a minor by a Catholic priest from a personal disgrace into a national scandal. The story of this scandal is disturbing and complex. Even as the number of new cases has apparently dropped, bishops have found themselves struggling to cope with the consequences of earlier offenses that were covered up. Now even Pope Francis stands accused of not responding quickly enough, and Germany and Chile have joined the ranks of countries where the Church has abuse scandals on its hands. What follows is an overview of the history of this scandal in the United States, for the benefit of people trying to make sense of it all. It’s a perspective the bishops themselves will need as they gather in Baltimore the second full week of November for their fall general meeting. This issue is expected to dominate the agenda. Pope St. John Paul II speaks with Cardinal Bernard Law in 2002 in the pope’s private library at the Vatican. Cardinal Law had been one of the United States’ most powerful and respected bishops until his legacy was blemished by the devastating sexual abuse of minors by priests in his Archdiocese of Boston. CNS photo via L’Osservatore Romano A 1980s ‘aberration’ Start with Gilbert Gauthe. Although by no means the first abuser priest, he was the first to receive national attention as the specifics of his misdeeds and the bungling of his superiors became known.

  • The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic
    The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic Dear Readers, The publication on the Ro- man Catholic Church which you are holding in your hands may strike you as history that belongs in a museum. How- ever, if you leaf through it and look around our beauti- ful country, you may discover that it belongs to the present as well. Many changes have taken place. The history of the Church in this country is also the history of this nation. And the history of the nation, of the country’s inhabitants, always has been and still is the history of the Church. The Church’s mission is to serve mankind, and we want to fulfil Jesus’s call: “I did not come to be served but to serve.” The beautiful and unique pastoral constitution of Vatican Coun- cil II, the document “Joy and Hope” begins with the words: “The joys and the hopes, the grief and the anxieties of the men of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the grief and anxieties of the followers of Christ.” This is the task that hundreds of thousands of men and women in this country strive to carry out. According to expert statistical estimates, approximately three million Roman Catholics live in our country along with almost twenty thousand of our Eastern broth- ers and sisters in the Greek Catholic Church, with whom we are in full communion. There are an additional million Christians who belong to a variety of other Churches. Ecumenical cooperation, which was strengthened by decades of persecution and bullying of the Church, is flourishing remarkably in this country.

  • The Man Who Had to Be Elected Pope
    The Man Who Had To Be Elected Pope Dg, 2/04/2017 URL article: http://magister.blogautore.espresso.repubblica.it/2017/04/02/the-man-who-had-to- … > Italiano > English > Español > Français > All the articles of Settimo Cielo in English * Mission accomplished. After four years of pontificate, this is the assessment that has been made by the cardinals who brought Jorge Mario Bergoglio to election as pope. The operation that produced the Francis phenomenon arises from a long time ago, as far back as 2002, when for the first time "L'Espresso" discovered and wrote that the then little-known archbishop of Buenos Aires had leapt to the top of the candidates for the papacy, the real ones, not the figureheads. It laid the groundwork at the conclave of 2005, when it was to none other than Bergoglio that all the votes were funneled from those who did not want Joseph Ratzinger as pope. And it came into port at the conclave of 2013, to a large extent because many of his electors still knew very little about that Argentine cardinal, and certainly not that he would deal the Church that “punch in the stomach” spoken of a few days ago by his rival defeated in the Sistine Chapel, Milan archbishop Angelo Scola. Between Bergoglio and his great electors there was not and is not full agreement. He is the pope of proclamations more than of realizations, of allusions more than of definitions. There is however one key factor that meets the expectations of a historic turning point of the Church capable of making up for its emblematic lag of “two hundred years” with respect to the modern world that was denounced by Carlo Maria Martini, the cardinal who loved to call himself the “ante-pope,” meaning the anticipator of the one who was to come.
