Teaching from our Holy Father The Pope, as Bishop of Rome and successor of Peter, is the visible and perpetual foundation of unity among the bishops and among Christ's faithful. It is the Pope's role as Vicar of Christ and Pastor of the entire Church to guide the community of Christ's faithful, to safeguard them in the truth, and to confirm his brothers and sisters in the faith. Dear Brothers and Sisters: In our continuing catechesis on the Acts of the Apostles, we now reflect on how Saint Peter and the Apostles respond with courage to those who wanted to stop the spread of the Gospel. Strengthened by the experience of Pentecost the Apostles become the “megaphone” of the Holy Spirit, proclaiming the saving word of God which cannot be silenced. In the midst of the Sanhedrin, which feels threatened by the Apostolic preaching, a different voice is heard. The highly regarded doctor of the Law, Gamaliel, demonstrates the “art of discernment”. Filled with prophetic wisdom, he invites the leaders of the people not to give in to haste, but to wait for developments over time. This kind of discernment is valuable for the Church because it invites us to be farsighted, to contemplate events and not to make hasty judgments. Discernment is an art that does not provide standardized solutions. It is an exercise of spiritual intelligence carried out by the children of God who learn to see traces of the Father’s presence within history. Let us ask the Holy Spirit to help us acquire the habit of discernment in order to learn that both time and the faces of our brothers and sisters are messengers of the living God. General Audience, St Peter’s Square, Wednesday, 18 September 2019: http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/audiences/2019/documents/papa-francesco_20190918_udienza-generale.html The Reason for our Hope By Most Rev. Richard W. Smith, Archbishop of Edmonton Monday, September 16, 2019 Read the Instructions! OK. I admit it. I’m one of those who waits too late to read instruction books. Somehow I have it in my head that I should be able to figure out how to set up a new gadget or use an unfamiliar product without needing to follow the how-to instructions. Anyone who knows just how mechanically or technologically challenged I am would see how preposterous such an assumption is on my part. Needless to say, by the time I do accept the fact that I should look at the directions, I’ve made a rather total mess of things. If anybody is nearby, the dreaded question is soon asked: “Why didn’t you read the instructions to begin with?” I expect that God would like to pose the same question to a large part of humanity today. His query would arise not from our incapacity to assemble things properly but the inability to live together peacefully. Looking at the mess we have made – widespread isolation and loneliness, homelessness, family dysfunction, hostility separating groups of people from one another, wars among nations, killing the innocent, and so on – God could rightly ask, “Why didn’t you read the instructions?” The pain and hardship impacting vast swathes of the human family today could have been avoided if we had. In point of fact, God has provided us with instructions for how to live. They are found in that instruction book we call the Bible. Some critically important pages of instruction were given to us at mass on Sunday. From the fifteenth chapter of Luke’s Gospel we were given the magnificent parables that Jesus taught concerning God’s mercy. They speak of God’s desire to seek us out and forgive us, and in so doing teach us that the cause of our difficulties is rebellion against God’s love. In so many ways we think we can get along without God and his instructions: like the prodigal son we make a mess of life by squandering the good things God gives us; like the elder son, we get it wrong by thinking that the love of God is something to earn by our own efforts; or, like the Israelite people following Moses in the desert, we botch things up entirely by casting away our reliance upon God and fashioning gods of our own making (cf. Exodus 32:7-11,13-14). It’s time to consult the instruction book God provides. In the Bible, He is telling us to turn back to Him in repentance and ask Him to fix, by His mercy, the mess we have made of living by not following His directions in the first place. There is another instruction book that God provides us to read. It is the witness of his saints. The lives of the saints form a book of instruction by furnishing us with examples of how we are to live in accord with God’s design. Today many people are quick to go to YouTube for instruction videos on all sorts of things. When it comes to right living, consult the saints. A wonderful example was given to the Church on Sunday. I visited St. Boniface parish that we have here in Edmonton for German-speaking Catholics. They invited me to join them to celebrate the beatification that same day in Limburg, Germany, of Father Richard Henkes. Now his is quite the example! I confess, I had not heard of Fr. Henkes prior to receiving this invitation from the parish, and I am now very moved by, and grateful for, his witness. He served as a Pallottine priest in Germany during the Nazi era. In the face of the horrible evil perpetrated by that regime, he did not hesitate to speak out against it from the pulpit. For that he was arrested and sent to the Dachau concentration camp, where he died. From the “instruction book” that was his life, we learn that attacks against human dignity, in whatever form, are never acceptable and must be met not with silent acquiescence but clear denunciation and a call to repentance, even though there be a cost. Instruction books are given so that we get things right. Reading them is obviously insufficient. They need to be followed. This is supremely true in the case of God’s instruction books for right living: the Bible and the witness of the saints. Let’s be sure to read them and follow the directions we are given.

  • Bekanntes Aus Dem Leben Der NS-Opfer
    Bekanntes aus dem Leben der NS-Opfer Hedwig Löb, Vorderer Rebstock 14, Montabaur: Hier befand sich der Wohnsitz von Hedwig Löb. Hedwig Löb war Witwe. Ihr Mann, Moritz Löb, betrieb eines Eisen- und Ofenhandlung. Auch Hedwig Löb durfte nicht mehr in Montabaur bleiben. Am 11. Februar 1939 war sie in Frankfurt gemeldet. Sie wohnte zuerst in der Karlstraße 19 und ab 4. November 1940 in der Sternstraße 19. Am 1. September 1942 wurde sie durch die Gestapo Frankfurt / Main zum Ghetto Theresienstadt deportiert. Am 29. September 1942 kam sie in ein Vernichtungslager nach Treblinka. Adolf und Betty Heimann mit Tochter Ingeborg, Vorderer Rebstock 23, Mtb: Hier wohnte die Familie Heimann und betrieb ein Ladenlokal für Manufakturwaren. - Nach der Reichspogromnacht mussten die Heimanns ihr kleines Haus zu einem Spottpreis verkaufen, sollten aber vorerst noch in Montabaur bleiben. Adolf und Betty Heimann hatten eine Tochter namens Ingeborg, die psychisch leicht behindert war. Da sie nicht alleine leben konnte, wurde sie in den Kriegsjahren von ihren Eltern getrennt und 1940 in die Jacoby’sche Anstalt für Nerven- und Gemütskranke nach Bendorf-Sayn eingewiesen. Ihre Eltern, Adolf und Betty Heimann, wurden im August 1941 in die ehemalige Bergarbeitersiedlung in Friedrichssegen/Lahn eingewiesen, um dort Zwangsarbeit zu verrichten. Die Männer sortierten Alteisen und Schrott in der zwangsarisierten Firma „Friedrichssegener Eisenhandel“, die Frauen wurden im Ton- und Dachziegelwerk Friedrichssegen bei der Klinkerproduktion eingesetzt. Die Arbeit war körperlich sehr hart und erfolgte unter den allerschlechtesten Bedingungen. Die Unterkünfte waren verkommen, die Lebensbedingungen mehr als primitiv. Adolf und Betty Heimann wurden am 10. Juli 1942 über Frankfurt am Main in das Vernichtungslager Sobibor deportiert und dort ermordet.

  • Opening the Fifth Seal: Catholic Martyrs and Forces of Religious Competition
    Opening the fifth seal: Catholic martyrs and forces of religious competition Robert J. Barro Harvard University, American Enterprise Institute Rachel M. McCleary Harvard University, American Enterprise Institute AEI Economics Working Paper 2020-01 March 2020 © 2020 by Rachel M. McCleary and Robert J. Barro. All rights reserved. The American Enterprise Institute (AEI) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) educational organization and does not take institutional positions on any issues. The views expressed here are those of the author(s). Opening the Fifth Seal Catholic Martyrs and Forces of Religious Competition Rachel M. McCleary and Robert J. Barro Jorge Mario Bergoglio, since becoming Pope Francis in March 2013, is focusing on martyrdom in the Roman Catholic Church. Two months into his pontificate, Francis canonized the 813 martyrs of Otranto, the largest such group in recorded Catholic Church history. Five months later, Francis beatified another large group, 499 martyrs of the Spanish Civil War. Francis continues to emphasize martyrs over confessors, the name given to blessed persons who died of natural causes. In 2019, Francis beatified 39 martyrs and only 6 confessors. As a snapshot of what is happening, within the last four years, 14 persons who died in Guatemala have qualified as blessed martyrs; six were foreign missionaries who served in Guatemala and eight were national lay persons, including one child.1 The missionaries were Oklahoma priest Stanley Rother, the first U.S. born martyr beatified by the Catholic Church, three Missionaries of the Sacred Heart priests, a priest of the Order of Friars Minor, and James Miller, of the De La Salle Brothers of the Christian Schools and the last Vatican beatification for 2019.

  • On 3-2007.Kern on 3-2007.Kern.Qxd
    P. Paul Weingartner OCD Provinzial der Österreichischen Provinz des Teresianischen Karmel eleitwort „Man wirkt nicht mit Worten auf einen anderen; mit seinem Wesen tut man es!“ (Romain Rolland). Alle Menschen bezeugen den Schatz oder auch die Leere ihrer Herzen. G Zeugen sind wir nicht erst durch unser Reden und Tun, sondern es spricht bereits unsere Einstellung, die permanente Ausstrahlung unseres Wesens, eben das, was wir sind. Einzelne Taten sowie der gesamte Lebensvollzug sind konkretes Manifestieren unserer Innenwelt. Für unsere Mitwelt sind wir als Einzelne und als Gemeinschaft Botschafter des Auferstandenen. Als Ordenschristen antworten wir auf eine Sehnsucht, die uns so radikal auf Gott verweist, dass wir unsere gesamte Existenz Gott geweiht haben. Die Kirchenlehrerin Thérèse von Lisieux ist überzeugt: „Gott würde die Sehnsucht nicht geben, wenn er sie nicht auch erfüllen würde.“ Wer möchte, erkennt an unserer Lebensweise nicht nur, dass wir in Jesus eine lebendige Orientierung haben, sondern auch, dass wir gerade in der Freundschaft mit ihm die Erfüllung unserer Sehnsucht erwarten. In der Lebendigkeit und im Engagement für das Leben in Fülle sehe ich eine objektiv wahrnehmbare Konkretisierung der Taufe, die ich mit Lukas „sichtbar gewordene Gnade“ nenne. Von Barnabas wissen wir: „Als er in Antiochia ankam und die Gnade Gottes sah, freute er sich“ (Apg 11,23). Ob die Gnade, die sich in christlichen Gemeinschaften inkarniert, auch wahrgenommen wird, hat freilich mit der Disposition des Wahrnehmenden zu tun. Barnabas, selbst erfüllt vom Heiligen Geist und vom Glauben, somit ein wohlwollender Insider, konnte jedenfalls die Gnade sehen. Paulus 1 spricht davon, dass sogar Ungläubige und Unkundige, die Zugang zu christlichen Gemeinschaften finden, bemerken können: „Wahrhaftig, Gott ist bei euch!“ (1 Kor 14,25).
