  • Monasticism Old And
    Study Guides for Monasticism Old and New These guides integrate Bible study, prayer, and worship to explore how monastic communities, classic and new, provide a powerful critique of mainstream culture and offer transforming possibilities Christian Reflection for our discipleship. Use them individually or in a series. You may A Series in Faith and Ethics reproduce them for personal or group use. A Vision So Old It Looks New 2 It is hard to be a Christian in America today. But that can be good news, the new monastics are discovering. If the cost of discipleship pushes us to go back and listen to Jesus again, it may open us to costly grace and the transformative power of resurrection life. In every era God has raised up new monas- tics to remind the Church of its true vocation. The Finkenwalde Project 4 Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s project at Finkenwalde Seminary to recover for congregations the deep Christian tradition is a prominent model for young twenty-first-century Christians. Weary of the false dichotomy between right belief and right practice, they seek the wholeness of discipleship in what Bonhoeffer called “a kind of new monasticism.” Evangelicals and Monastics 6 Could any two groups of Christians—evangelicals and monastics—be more different? But the New Monasticism movement has opened a new chapter in the relations of these previously estranged groups. Nothing is more characteristic of monastics and evangelicals than their unshakable belief that one cannot be truly spiritual without putting one’s faith into practice, and one cannot sustain Christian discipleship without a prayerful spirituality.

  • Travels in America: Aelred Carlyle, His American “Allies,” and Anglican Benedictine Monasticism Rene Kollar Saint Vincent Archabbey, Latrobe, Pennsylvania
    Travels in America: Aelred Carlyle, His American “Allies,” and Anglican Benedictine Monasticism Rene Kollar Saint Vincent Archabbey, Latrobe, Pennsylvania N FEBRUARY 1913, Abbot Aelred Carlyle and a majority of the Benedictine monks of Caldey Island, South Wales, renounced the Anglican Church and converted to I Roman Catholicism.1 For years, the Caldey Island monastery had been a show piece of Anglo-Catholicism and a testimony to the catholic heritage of the Anglican Church, but when Charles Gore, the Bishop of Oxford, tried to regularize their status within Anglicanism by forcing Carlyle and the monks to agree to a series of demands which would radically alter their High Church liturgy and devotions, the monks voted to join the Church of Rome. The demands of the Great War, however, strained the fragile finances of the island monastery, and during the spring of 1918, Abbot Carlyle traveled to America to solicit funds for his monastery. “And it was indeed sheer necessity that took me away from the quiet shores of Caldey,” he told the readers of Pax, the community’s magazine, but “Caldey has suffered grievously through the war.”2 Abbot Carlyle saw a possible solution to his problems. “In our need we turned to our Catholic Allies in the United States, and my duty seemed obvious that I should accept the invitation I had received to go to New York to plead in person the cause of Caldey there.” Carlyle had not forgotten lessons from the past. During his years as an Anglican monk, the American connection proved to be an important asset in the realization of his monastic dreams.

  • The Ancient History and the Female Christian Monasticism: Fundamentals and Perspectives
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 3, Issue 3 – Pages 235-250 The Ancient History and the Female Christian Monasticism: Fundamentals and Perspectives By Paulo Augusto Tamanini This article aims to discuss about the rediscovery and reinterpretation of the Eastern Monasticism focusing on the Female gender, showing a magnificent area to be explored and that can foment, in a very positive way, a further understanding of the Church's face, carved by time, through the expansion and modes of organization of these groups of women. This article contains three main sessions: understanding the concept of monasticism, desert; a small narrative about the early ascetic/monastic life in the New Testament; Macrina and Mary of Egypt’s monastic life. Introduction The nomenclatures hide a path, and to understand the present questions on the female mystique of the earlier Christian era it is required to revisit the past again. The history of the Church, Philosophy and Theology in accordance to their methodological assumptions, concepts and objectives, give us specific contributions to the enrichment of this comprehensive knowledge, still opened to scientific research. If behind the terminologies there is a construct, a path, a trace was left in the production’s trajectory whereby knowledge could be reached and the interests of research cleared up. Once exposed to reasoning and academic curiosity it may provoke a lively discussion about such an important theme and incite an opening to an issue poorly argued in universities. In the modern regime of historicity, man and woman can now be analysed based on their subjectivities and in the place they belong in the world and not only by "the tests of reason", opening new ways to the researcher to understand them.

  • A Brief Introduction to Orthodox Monastic Life (Monks and Nuns)
    Monasticism By Fr. John Hopko Each year on May 15, Orthodox Christians commemorate the memory of Saint Pachomius the Great, the founder of cenobitic monasticism. Cenobitic is an English word that has its roots in a Greek compound word that means “life in common.” So, cenobitic monasticism is, in fact, the kind of monastic life with which we are most familiar today—life lived by monks or nuns, in common, together in a monastery. For most of us, that is about as much as we know about the life of monks and nuns—that they are religious people who live in communal life together in a monastery. So, the question is raised, what is day-to-day life like in a monastic community? Who are the monastics? They are Orthodox Christian people who have decided to fully and formally commit themselves to a way of life that leaves behind worldly pursuits and concentrates on spiritual work. In a monastery at any given time you have living there a variety of people ranging from “seekers,” through “novices”, to the “clothed” and “professed”, and on to the “elders.” Seekers are those who have come to live in the monastery with the idea that they might have a calling to live in a monastery as a monk or nun. But, they have made no permanent commitment and they are not yet clothed in monastic clothes (the “habit”). Novices are those who truly believe they have a calling to live in the monastery, and who are blessed to wear a portion of the monastic habit, usually the basic black robe and belt and a monastic head-covering.

  • Hadrian the African: Fact Sheet / Time Line (Michael Wood)
    HADRIAN THE AFRICAN – fact sheet Michael Wood, 2020 There is no separate in-depth account of Hadrian and his legacy. The key study of his life is by M Lapidge and B Bischoff Biblical Commentaries from the Canterbury School of Theodore and Hadrian Cambridge 1994 pp82-132. To draw up this fact sheet/time line I have used this along with older studies starting with AS Cook in 1923, and added new finds made over the last few years, the latest by Franck Cinato in 2017. It mainly concentrates on what we might be able to deduce about his life and career in Africa and Naples before he came to England. For all his importance, Hadrian was till recently a poorly studied figure – not least because of the difficulty of finding evidence; but the one certainty is that more is to be discovered. My article on him comes out in the October issue of the BBC History magazine. Any comments or suggestions gratefully received! 1) Hadrian was born in North Africa (in the 620s?) and died in Canterbury on January 9 709 or 710. 2) He was of ‘African race” vir natione Afir (so Bede- Hadrian was alive till Bede was in his thirties.) NB the use of this term by the likes of Virgil, Martial and Statius: it is often specifically used by Latin poets to refer to a native of Libya. Maybe then he was a Berber/Amazigh? Probably as a fluent Greek speaker he was from the Greek-speaking part of North Africa – i.e. Cyrenaica; but where exactly we don’t know.

  • By Edward Pentin
    By Edward Pentin ROME, January 24, 2013 (Zenit.org) - "The only worthwhile striving is after the highest ideals: If you aim for an easy target, your standard will inevitably decline, and no progress is ever made, except through real effort and real suffering." These are words attributed to Fra' Andrew Bertie, the 78th Grand Master of the Order of Malta, whose cause for beatification is expected to open next month, according to informed sources. Andrew Willoughby Ninian Bertie, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II whose family has had royal ties for centuries, was the first Englishman to be elected to the post of Grand Master in the Order's 900 year history. He served in the Rome-based position from 1988 until his death in February 2008 at the age of 78. But for all the lofty titles and blue blood, those who knew Fra' Andrew remember him as a down-to-earth yet eccentric personality, a true gentleman with impeccable manners, and greatly loved by former pupils at Worth Abbey School in Sussex, England, where he taught for 23 years. "He was an extremely vivid person and one of the teachers whom the pupils all remember," said Father Stephen Ortiger, a colleague and friend at Worth, a Benedictine school. The priest said he felt Fra' Andrew would be "convulsed with laughter" if he heard his cause for beatification was to be opened. He didn't have an aura of holiness, Father Ortiger said, "not because he wasn't holy but because he would rather die than exude an aura of holiness -- he would do everything by stealth and wouldn't wear his heart or his goodness on his sleeve." "If he saw a balloon was coming," he said, "he would prick it." Alumni of Worth recall how, on his way to breakfast each morning, Fra' Andrew would give the fullest possible voice to the Moslem call to prayer -- Allah u Akbar.

  • Talk at the 109 Commemoration of the Death Anniversary of Abbot Francis Pfanner, Servant of God
    Talk at the 109 commemoration of the death anniversary of Abbot Francis Pfanner, Servant of God. Abbot Francis Pfanner, the missionary pioneer in the last 200 years of the Church’s existence in Southern Africa. Fr. Bheki M. Shabalala CMM Provincial Superior Introduction Dear brothers and sisters, I am very happy that as we commemorate the 109 death anniversary of Abbot Francis Pfanner, the Servant of God, we are also celebrating the bicentenary of the establishment of the Catholic Church in Southern Africa as the Province of Mariannhill. You will agree with me that it is not easy to pay tribute to the member of one’s own family. One is always accused of lack of objectivity and critical analysis. Moreover, the topic that I have been asked to talk about is difficult. To talk about Abbot Francis as a “pioneer” is very easy because he developed so many projects in various monasteries where he worked, including saving many lives in Tre Fontane, Rome, where he planted Eucalyptus trees to save people from the malaria epidemic. But to talk of Abbot Francis as a “missionary pioneer” is difficult because we all know that he was a Trappist and died a Trappist. When Abbot Francis and the 30 monks descended in South Africa, Dunbrody, in 1880 their primary task was to introduce the contemplative spirit into the local church. They had to perform this function under the guidance of the strict Benedictine motto of Prayer and Work, “Ora et Labora,” which was accompanied by austere silence and a cloistered life. As I prepared this reflection I remembered a booklet I had read, called The Bicentennial Celebration of the Church in Southern Africa.

  • Supply Priests& Visiting Clergy from Outside
    46 DIOCESE OF EAST ANGLIA Diocesan procedures for SUPPLY PRIESTS & VISITING CLERGY from outside England and Wales (as at 1.1.2007) 1. Introduction 1.1 These procedures are based on the National Policy on Supply Priests and Testimonials of Suitability dated 1st June 2004. It is a revised version of the guidelines presented by the Bishops’ Conference Committee for Overseas Mission in 2000. 1.2 This document needs to be read in conjunction with our diocesan policy on Welcoming priests from overseas, or from elsewhere in the United Kingdom, for any period of ministry, including with a view to eventual incardination. That policy includes specific requirements for any priest seeking to spend over two weeks ministering in any way in this diocese, particularly the need for the priest and his Bishop/Abbot/Provincial to sign the formal declaration which is part of the policy. 2. Permission required 2.1 All supply priests or visiting priests and deacons from outside of England and Wales require explicit permission (from the Bishop, Provincial or Abbot as explained below) to engage in public ministry of any kind in East Anglia. This includes all priests and deacons who are or will be engaging in any form of active ministry (including the public celebration of Mass, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, other religious services) while within the diocese of East Anglia. 2.2 This includes priests or deacons seeking permission to exercise ministry in one of our parishes or communities served by members of Religious Congregations, or in one of our convents. 2.3 Permission to minister in East Anglia can only be given once satisfactory written confirmation has been received that the priest or deacon is in good standing from his Bishop, Abbot or Provincial.
