Ciszek Palabra, 256 pages Walter Ciszek, North American Jesuit, arrived in Russia with 25 other people in Boxcar 89725, from the Polish city of Albertyn. His goal was to spread the word of God in Russia. But soon after establishing himself in Teplaya Gora, he was discovered and detained by the secret police. Accused of espionage, he was transferred to the dreaded Moscow prison of Lubianka where he remained during the years of World War II, and was later sentenced to 15 years forced labor in Siberia. Finally, in 1963, he was exchanged for 2 Russian spies and was able to return to the United States. In this book, he reveals the reason for his survival and gives testament to his life of prayer by which he overcame loneliness, pain, fear, and desperation. In 1990 his beatification process was started. Today he is a Servant of God. Review #4---Rev. Cristiandad Mayo 2015 “He Leadeth Me” Author: Walter J. Ciszek, Daniel L. Flaherty Publisher: Palabra 256 pages This North American Jesuit, Servant of God, entered Russia from the Polish city of Albertyn, which had been taken over by the Red Army. During the years of World War II, he remained in the Moscow prison of Lubianka, and was later sentenced to 15 years of forced labor in a Siberian gulag. In the book, he reveals the reason for his survival - the total surrender to the will of God - and gives testament to his life of prayer by which he overcame his loneliness. Review #5---Agenda de la Empresa Andaluza Junio 2015 He Leadeth Me: Memories of a Jesuit in the Gulag Walter J. Ciszek with Daniel L. Flaherty Palabra - 254 pages Walter Ciszek, a North American Jesuit, was captured by the Red Army from the Polish city of Albertyn and arrived in Russia with 25 other people in Boxcar 89725, with the goal of spreading the word of God. He was imprisoned, accused of espionage, trapped in the Moscow prison of Lubianka during all of World War II, and sentenced to 15 years of forced labor in the prison camps of Siberia. Exchanged for 2 Russian spies, he was freed in 1963, and returned to the United States. Father Walter Ciszek Prayer League 3 Fr. Ciszek and the North American Martyrs: Reflections on Sinfulness and the Love of God By John M. DeJak On August 4, 1964, Fr. Ciszek began his annual eight-day retreat in preparation for his final vows, which he would take on the Feast of Our Lady’s Assumption, August 15, 1964. The site for this particular retreat was the Shrine of the North American Martyrs (also known as the Shrine of Our Lady of Martyrs), in Auriesville, New York. It is built on the site of Ossernenon, a small Indian village on the south bank of the Mohawk River. St. Kateri Tekakwitha was from this village and it was the inhabitants of this village who ultimately killed St. Isaac Jogues, St. Rene Goupil and their fellow Jesuit companions in the 17th century. The Shrine has long been a spot for prayer and meditation for the faithful across the country. There is something mystical about the place. When one arrives, he feels the centuries in his bones. Looking across the expanse towards the Mohawk River and seeing the sharp incline below from the height of old village of Ossernenon, one can’t help but feel the need for silence when meditating upon the events of that spot. It was there, down the sharp incline, that the Jesuit saints were forced to “run the gauntlet”—running up and down the hill while being stoned with sharp rocks and lacerated by blades and spears of the savage tribe. Upon that holy spot now lies a circle of rocks—possibly from the same era—now configured into a rosary. The Jesuits have long cultivated devotion to these holy places, having erected a coliseum-style church in 1930, no doubt reminding the faithful of today that the suffering of the 17th century Jesuit martyrs had a mystical relation to the suffering of the early Christians in Rome’s Flavian Amphitheater. Not far away from the shrine church is a ravine. As one walks down the ravine, there is an eerie silence. One encounters at the base of the ravine a small altar commemorating the area—the exact spot still unknown—where St. Rene Goupil’s body was dismembered and thrown to be consumed by wild animals and the ravages of time. The place and the moment of one’s visit cannot but call forth emotion for the one who irrigated the land with his blood, so that the seed of faith could bloom in North America. And so it was, in August 1964, that Fr. Walter Ciszek, S.J., fellow Jesuit with the martyrs, came to the place of their tortures and death.

  • With God and Father Ciszek in Rome
    Read newsletter online [email protected] 2014 Issue I www.ciszek.org With God and Father Ciszek in Rome On June 10, 2013, after a hiatus of nearly fifteen years and nearly · twenty years to the day that I first visited, I returned to Rome. International travel is always interesting and this trip was no different. I shared a shuttle from the airport to the center of the City of Rome with an Iranian doctor. He spoke English and it had been his first trip to Rome. He must have sensed that I knew where I was going (not sure I had that sense!) so we began a conversation after disembarking our aircraft and making our way through customs and, after he bought me a cappuccino, we shared the cost of the taxi into the center of town. I'm sure the State Department of the United States and the Foreign Ministry of Iran would not have approved of our conversation. It ranged from politics, the relations between our respective countries, religion, and the ancient cultures from which we both sprang- Rome and Persia.

  • St.-Ignatius-Of-Loyola-Homily.Pdf
    1 Thursday of the 7th Week of Easter 500th Anniversary of the Conversion of St. Ignatius of Loyola at the Battle of Pamplona and the Beginning of the Ignatian Year Homily of Bishop John Barres St. Agnes Cathedral May 20, 2021 The 17th Chapter of the Gospel of John focuses on the Glory of God. Jesus prays to his Heavenly Father: “I wish that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see my glory that you gave me, because you loved me before the foundation of the world.” The great saints of the Catholic Church dedicated their lives completely to the Glory of God and their lives are powerful commentaries on John 17. One such saint is the Founder of the Society of Jesus, the Jesuits. His name is St. Ignatius of Loyola and he lived from 1491-1556.1 His life and Jesuit charism are summarized in the phrase Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam – For the Greater Glory of God. This simple phrase has focused, grounded and motivated the mission of holy Jesuits and Jesuit universities, institutions and apostolates for centuries. Today – May 20th, 2021 – we celebrate the 500th Anniversary of the Conversion of St. Ignatius of Loyola and we also begin an Ignatian Year as we simultaneously celebrate the Year of St. Joseph. The Ignatian Year starts today May 20th , 2021 and lasts till the Memorial of St. Ignatius on July 31st, 2022. An ambitious Spanish soldier, Ignatius was wounded by a cannon ball at the Battle of Pamplona on May 20th , 1521. 1 See Bishop Barres’ Pastoral Letter introducing the Ignatian Year ‘Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam – For the Greater Glory of God’.
