How incredible it is that 8:00 am †Ignazio Battaglia, requested by Easter is a mere month away—four weeks to be Mr. & Mrs. Angelo Savo exact. TUESDAY, MARCH 1, 2016 How is our Lenten observance, so far? If we 8:00 am †John Regan, requested by can answer by saying "Great… I am praying more, wife & family offering God acts of penance, oftentimes known WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2, 2016 only to Him and me, and trying to perform more 8:00 am †Edward Watters, requested by acts of love and stewardship towards others," Elaine & Bill Mehl then praise God for that!

Let us turn to requested by Suresh & Angeline Desai God… always! SUNDAY, MARCH 6, 2016 Have a wonderful week! 7:30 am For the People of the Parish Father Victor Ulto 9:00 am †Jimmy Bruno, requested by Augeri Family 10:45 am †Donald Hibbard, requested by Faculty & Staff of Southern Oaks Middle School 12:15 pm †Martin & Mary Ellen Healy, requested by, Kathy Cole & granddaughter Year of Mercy Capsule from Pope Francis We need to be strong every day of our lives, to carry forward our life, our family, our faith. The apostle Paul said something that will benefit us to hear: I can do all things in Him who strengthens me. (Phil 4:13). When we face daily life, when difficulties arise, let us remember this: I can do all things in Him who strengthens me. The Lord always strengthens us; He never lets strength lack. The Lord does not try us beyond our possibilities. He is always with us. ...Pope Francis Reflection: How much have I thought about strengthening a weak person or family who actually needs my mercy? Are we not the images of the living presence of God here on earth? Third Sunday of Lent Page 3 Stewardship....Live It! STEWARDSHIP & SAINT OSWALD... Stewardship: a way of life for our St. Bernadette Parish Family… “Therefore, whoever thinks he is standing secure should take care not to fall.” 1 Corinthians 10:12 STEWARDSHIP & THE BURNING BUSH... Our Old Testament Reading, the First Reading, on this Third Sunday of Lent, relates the narrative of Moses and the Burning Bush. Like many readings which we hear throughout our lives, this is an image and a story with which most of us are familiar. Also, through Moses’ Oswald of Worcester experience there is a stewardship message for each of us. As Moses approaches the bush, God calls out “Moses, Poor St. Oswald of Worcester (England, that is)!The Moses!” The fact that the Lord repeats Moses’ name origin of Feast Days: most saints have specially gives the situation a sense of urgency. Perhaps God feels designated feast days and are associated with a specific the same sense of urgency in relation to each of us. God day of the year and these are referred to as the saint's feast calls us, and He calls us by name, but too often we do not day. The feast days first arose from the very early hear, or we do not pay attention. Probably most often we Christian custom of the annual commemoration of are not even listening. martyrs on the dates of their deaths at the same time The second aspect of stewardship indicated in this celebrating their birth into heaven. Although St. Oswald’s passage from Holy Scripture is found in God’s next life was exemplary, he died on February 29, 992. That statement, “Remove the sandals from your feet, for the means that his Feast Day is February 29, and that, of place where you stand is holy ground.” Removing sandals course, means we celebrate St. Oswald not every year, was an act of respect, a sign of humility. To fully live but only every fourth year. lives of stewardship requires these traits from each of us Born in Denmark of noble parents, Oswald’s uncle — to be alert and aware that God is speaking to us, but just happened to be the Archbishop of Canterbury (note we must listen; and to live our lives, especially our that Canterbury was a Catholic archdiocese at that time, stewardship lives, with a sense of humility. That is, after not to be confused with the Church of England, which did all, how we really show love for our God and for one not exist.). Oswald went to Canterbury for training and another. Ω education, and he went from there to France where he professed vows with the Benedictines. The Benedictine priest Oswald returned to England and became eventually the Bishop of Worcester. Something unique occurred shortly after that, as Oswald was elevated to be the Archbishop of York, while remaining the Bishop of Worcester. There was no precedent for that, but it had to do with what a good and holy Bishop he was. We often point to the saints as examples of stewardship, and Oswald is no exception. Indicative of his holiness and his desire to serve the people, every day during Lent he would wash the feet of the poor. It was on Februart 29, during Lent, while washing the feet of the poor, that he died. Ω Financial stewardship for the month of February will be reported in the bulletin of Sunday, March 6, 2016.

    CONTEXTS FOR PASTORAL CARE: ANGLO-SAXON PRIESTS AND PRIESTLY BOOKS, C. 900–1100 Gerald P. Dyson PhD University of York History March 2016 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination and analysis of the books needed by and available to Anglo-Saxon priests for the provision of pastoral care in the tenth and eleventh centuries. Anglo-Saxon priests are a group that has not previously been studied as such due to the scattered and difficult nature of the evidence. By synthesizing previous scholarly work on the secular clergy, pastoral care, and priests’ books, this thesis aims to demonstrate how priestly manuscripts can be used to inform our understanding of the practice of pastoral care in Anglo-Saxon England. In the first section of this thesis (Chapters 2–4), I will discuss the context of priestly ministry in England in the tenth and eleventh centuries before arguing that the availability of a certain set of pastoral texts prescribed for priests by early medieval bishops was vital to the provision of pastoral care. Additionally, I assert that Anglo- Saxon priests in general had access to the necessary books through means such as episcopal provision and aristocratic patronage and were sufficiently literate to use these texts. The second section (Chapters 5–7) is divided according to different types of priestly texts and through both documentary evidence and case studies of specific manuscripts, I contend that the analysis of individual priests’ books clarifies our view of pastoral provision and that these books are under-utilized resources in scholars’ attempts to better understand contemporary pastoral care.

  • St. Oswald of Worcester Catholic.Net
    St. Oswald of Worcester Catholic.net Roman Martyrology: King of Northumbria from 634 until his death, and is venerated as a saint, of which there was a particular cult in the Middle Ages. SHORT BIOGRAPHY Oswald was of a noble Saxon family, and was endowed with a very rare and beautiful form of body and with a singular piety of soul. He was brought up by his uncle, St. Odo, Archbishop of Canterbury, and was chosen, while still young, dean of the secular canons of Winchester, then very relaxed. His attempt to reform them was a failure; and he saw, with that infallible instinct which so often guides the Saints in critical times, that the true remedy for the corruptions of the clergy was the restoration of the monastic life. He therefore went to France and took the habit of St. Benedict, but returned, only to receive the news of Odo's death. He found, however, a new patron in St. Dunstan, now metropolitan, through whose influence he was nominated to the see of Worcester. To these two Saints, together with Ethelwold of Winchester, the monastic revival of the tenth century is mainly due. Oswald's first care was to deprive of their benefices the disorderly clerics, whom he replaced as far as possible by regulars, and himself founded seven religious houses. Considering that in the hearts of the secular canons there were yet some sparks of virtue, he would not at once expel them, but rather entrapped them by a holy artifice. Adjoining the cathedral he built a church in honor of the Mother of God, causing it to be served by a body of strict religious.

  • The Cult of St Æthelwold and Its Context, C. 984 - C
    The Cult of St Æthelwold and its Context, c. 984 - c. 1400 Rebecca Browett Institute of Historical Research School of Advanced Study, University of London A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Ph.D in History September 2016 1 Declaration This thesis is submitted to the University of London in support of my application for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. I, Rebecca Browett, hereby confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own, carried out during the course of my studies. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the consent of the author. Signed: Date: 2 Abstract This thesis documents the cult of St Æthelwold, a tenth-century bishop of Winchester, from its inception (c. 984) until the late Middle Ages. During his life, Æthelwold was an authoritative figure who reformed monasteries in southern England. Those communities subsequently venerated him as a saint and this thesis examines his cult at those centres. In particular, it studies how his cult enabled monasteries to forge their identities and to protect their rights from avaricious bishops. It analyses the changing levels of veneration accorded to Æthelwold over a five hundred year period and compares this with other well-known saints’ cults. It uses diverse evidence from hagiographies, chronicles, chartularies, poems, church dedications, wall paintings, and architecture. Very few studies have attempted to chart the development of an early English saint's cult over such a long time period, and my multidisciplinary approach, using history, art, and literary studies, offers insight into the changing role of native saints in the English church and society over the course of the Middle Ages.

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-16097-2 — Writing, Kingship and Power in Anglo-Saxon England Edited by Rory Naismith , David A. Woodman Frontmatter More Information WRITING, KINGSHIP AND POWER IN ANGLO-SAXON ENGLAND The workings of royal and ecclesiastical authority in Anglo-Saxon England can only be understood on the basis of direct engagement with original texts and material artefacts. This book, written by leading experts, brings together new research that represents the best of current scholarship on the nexus between authority and written sources from Anglo-Saxon England. Ranging from the seventh to the eleventh century, the chapters in this volume offer fresh approaches to a wide range of linguistic, historical, legal, diplo- matic and palaeographical evidence. Central themes include the for- mation of power in early Anglo-Saxon kingdoms during the age of Bede (d. 735) and Offa of Mercia (757–96), authority and its articula- tion in the century from Edgar (959–75)to1066 and the significance of books and texts in expressing power across the period. Writing, Kingship and Power represents a critical resource for students and scholars alike with an interest in early medieval history from political, institutional and cultural perspectives. rory naismith is a lecturer in medieval history at King’s College London.
