VINCENT DE PAUL - 1960 In an age separated from our own by three centuries, He was a man such a BURNING STAR of kindness and assistance in whom faith in Christ supernaturalized for every form of misery appeared; a natural kindness of soul, this was VINCENT DE PAUL, in whom the CHARITY of Christ stimulated faith, a son of the people, and in whom faith and charity combined sprung from the soil, to conquer evil by good destitute of those goods of fortune and to work miracles for the relief which had enabled other benefactors of every human calamity and misery, of humanity to be great, generous whereby we see how the foolishness of God and magnificent, is wiser than the wisdom of men and rich alone in that FAITH and the weakness of God which works by the charity of Christ, stronger than their strength. by which he was animated and moved.

    Agenda Item B.1.b Supplemental Public Comment 3 Full Version Electronic Only April 2017 March 30, 2017 Mr. Herb Pollard, Chair Pacific Fishery Management Council 7700 NE Ambassador Place, Suite 101 Portland, OR 97220-1384 Mr. Barry Thom West Coast Regional Administrator National Marine Fisheries Service West Coast Region 7600 Sand Point Way NE, Bldg. 1 Seattle, WA 98115-0070 RE: Agenda Item B.1: Open Comment Period – Opposition to Pelagic Longlines off the U.S. West Coast Dear Mr. Pollard, Mr. Thom, and Council Members: You have the shared privilege and responsibility to protect the ocean’s most majestic wildlife. That responsibility includes ensuring ocean wildlife can safely swim Pacific Ocean waters without being killed in commercial fishing gear. We, the undersigned 24,494 residents of the United States (including 6,106 residents of California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington), urge you to prevent the authorization of pelagic longline fishing gear off the U.S. Pacific Coast. Use of this gear would lead to the entanglement and death of sea turtles, dolphins, whales, sea birds, sharks and many other important ocean species. Pelagic longlines used to catch swordfish, which can reach 60 miles in length and trail thousands of baited hooks, will inevitably ensnare and drown many other unsuspecting marine animals. Such a U.S. West Coast-based pelagic longline fishery, whether deep-set or shallow-set, has no place among the diversity of ocean life of the Northeast Pacific, particularly species already endangered with extinction. Pacific leatherback sea turtles, for example, migrate 6,000 miles from their nesting beaches to feed in the productive waters off the U.S.

  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church
    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.

While we address the leaders of our state, our legislators, our Governor and other elected officials, we also speak to all people of good will in presenting both our moral and practical reservations over the issue of capital punishment. We do not, however, speak alone. We note that in our congregations, our parishes, our synagogues and throughout our communities increasing numbers of Texans are beginning to question the wisdom, efficacy and virtue of the death penalty as a means to confront crime and achieve justice. We join with many Texans in questioning our state’s death penalty system, which has consistently been shown to be unfair and inaccurate. Texas leads the nation in the number of executions carried out each year. In fact, our state is a significant outlier in this regard, accounting for more than one third of all executions nationwide since 1976.

  • No Ordinary Joe's
    No ordinary Joe’s: Cardinal Ritter and Cardinal Tobin leave important imprints on local Church In this undated photo, Cardinal Joseph Ritter greets a father and his young son. (Archive photo) By Sean Gallagher Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin and Cardinal Joseph E. Ritter have a lot in common. Obviously, they share a first name. Both served as archbishop of Indianapolis. And they share being close advisors of the pope in the College of Cardinals. Similar to Cardinal Ritter, Cardinal Tobin has also sought to apply his deep faith to pressing social questions of his day, and to lead the faithful under his care to do the same. Cardinal Tobin came to know of Cardinal Ritter when he was a young Redemptorist in formation for the priesthood, spending summers doing ministry in St. Alphonsus Rock Parish in St. Louis, where Cardinal Ritter served as archbishop from 1946 until his death in 1967. The parish was in the middle of a large public housing project, and one of its major buildings was named after Cardinal Ritter. “Cardinal Ritter’s legacy was evident everywhere, both in civic and ecclesial circles,” Cardinal Tobin said. “The curious thing is that nobody told me he was from Indiana, and I assumed he was from Missouri. Of course, my first visit to New Albany corrected that misunderstanding.” That was because the southern Indiana town was where Cardinal Ritter was born in 1892. He grew up as a member of St. Mary Parish there before becoming a seminarian for the then-Diocese of Indianapolis at Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology in St.

    SELECTED DEATH NOTICES FROM JACKSON COUNTY, KANSAS, NEWSPAPERS VOLUME V 1900-1902 COMPILED BY DAN FENTON 2003 INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the time period covered by this volume, there were four newspapers being published in Holton, The Holton Weekly Recorder, The Holton Weekly Signal, The Tribune, and The Kansas Sunflower. The Soldier Clipper, and the Whiting Journal continued in their respective cities. In Circleville, the Circleville News ceased publication on November 8, 1900, and was soon replaced by the Jackson County World, which began publication on December 7, 1900. In Hoyt, the Hoyt Sentinel began publication on April 12, 1902. In Denison, the Denison Herald began publication on September 25, 1902. As noted in the previous volumes, not every death reported in these newspapers is included in this book, only those seeming to have some connection with Jackson county. A death notice could appear in different newspapers and from different sources within a.paper. One principal notice is listed with excerpts from other accounts being used only when there is differing or additional information. Accolades to the deceased success as a Christian, parent and citizen have been deleted when possible, because of space consideration. Three ellipses denote the deletion of part of a sentence and four that of a sentence or even paragraphs. Each death notice is numbered consecutively and it is this number that appears in the index, not the page number. This is an all surname index that I hope will help the researcher identify family relationships that otherwise would be hidden. The index begins on page 893.
