After personally attaching the leather tie, I doused your rosary with holy water from Lourdes and touched it to my Relic of the True Cross and then to my extremely rare first class relics of this powerful “all-star” line-up of saints: • Saint Joseph, head of the Holy Family • The Garden of Gethsemane the rock on which Jesus sweat blood • Saint Jude the Apostle, “help of the hopeless” and cousin of Jesus • Golgotha Calvary, where Jesus was crucified • Saint Therese of Lisieux, co-patron of missionaries • The Tomb of the Holy Sepulchre where Jesus rose from the dead • Saint Anthony of Padua, miracle worker and super-intercessor • Tomb of Saint Peter in Saint Peter’s Basilica, Vatican City Remember to ask Our Lady for miracles when you use it to pray the Holy Rosary!.

  • Experience of Eastern Catholic Churches in North America
    Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies Vol. 40 (1999) Nos. 1–4, pp. 165–170 Experience of Eastern Catholic Churches in North America Bishop Basil (Schott) Abstract (Українське резюме на ст. 169) The Byzantine Ruthenian Author begins his intervention with a historical excursus, mentioning certain unpleasant ex- periences, especially in the early decades of his people’s set- tlement in America, but soon he passes to the present. East- ern and Western Christians live amidst the same secularism, consumerist materialism and other negative influences. On the other hand, one can perceive the hunger of many for spirituality, care for the poor, a rejection of racism and other forms of hatred and injustice. Among the especially positive phenomena one can no- tice: the creation of hierarchies for Eastern Catholics in the “New World”, financial and other types of assistance from Roman Catholics for the often poorer Eastern Christians, a raising of the level of scholarship in the field of Eastern Christian Studies, the creation of the Committee on the Rela- tionship between Eastern and Latin Catholic Churches at the NCCB, the establishment of Eastern Catholic Associates (which brings together all Eastern Catholic hierarchs of the U.S.A.) and the publication of certain much-needed docu- ments. Still, there are some issues which require further work. Much progress will be made when all Roman Catholic semi- naries educate their students adequately about the Eastern Churches. 166 Bishop Basil (Schott) The lived experience of the Eastern Catholic Churches in North America began in the early 1880’s with immigrations from Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

The holy, evangelical and divine Gospel of Salvation should be set forth by all in its original simplicity, and should evermore be believed in its unadulterated purity, even the same as it was revealed to His holy Apostles by our Savior, who for this very cause, descending from the bosom of God the Father, made Himself of no reputation and took upon Him the form of a servant (Phil. ii. 7); even the same, also, as those Apostles, who were ear and eye witnesses, sounded it forth, like clear-toned trumpets, to all that are under the sun (for their sound is gone out into all lands, and their words into the ends of the world); and, last of all, the very same as the many great and glorious Fathers of the Catholic Church in all parts of the earth, who heard those Apostolic voices, both by their synodical and their individual teachings handed it down to all everywhere, and even unto us. But the Prince of Evil, that spiritual enemy of man's salvation, as formerly in Eden, craftily assuming the pretext of profitable counsel, he made man to become a transgressor of the divinely-spoken command.

    VII. Interactions with the World C. Anti-Catholicism a. The Know-Nothing Era 391. Editorial, The Catholic Telegraph and Advocate, April 9, 1853 (1) The Late Election. On Monday last an election for municipal officers took place in this city, which resulted in the success of the Democratic-convention nominations, with only a few exceptions. Not only throughout the State of Ohio has the excitement attending this election been known, but papers at the most distant points of the country, have indulged on commentaries in no way complimentary to the Catholics. Now be it known to all to whom these presents shall come, that all the Catholics did was to petition the legislature to amend the school laws, so that Catholic children could attend the schools without sacrifice of the rights of conscience!! This was all our guilt, and we have been repaid by such a deluge of Protestant abuse, misrepresentations and calumny, that we firmly believe the like was never known before in the United States. Editors, preachers, fanatics, loafers, panacea vendors, and quack doctors kept up an assault of such a universal character, that all sorts of style were used at once, all sorts of filth projected against us, all sorts of lies invented, all sorts of insults heaped upon our heads, until it seemed as if the Devil himself was for once exhausted and malignity could do no more. The election day came and the authors of all this insane bigotry and abuse were swept like dust before the power of he people. 392.

  • Understanding the Eastern Christian Churches
    UNDERSTANDING THE EASTERN CHRISTIAN CHURCHES John M. Samaha SM Introducing the Question When you think of the Church, what image comes to mind? What image do you think the average Catholic forms when the Church is mentioned? Usually the image is that of a highly centralized, worldwide institution with headquarters in Rome. Or, of one's neighbourhood parish church. All in the West who share the heritage of European civilization tend to identify the Catholic Church with the Latin Rite (Roman Rite). Similarly, Eastern Orthodox and other Eastern Christians may think of the church of their own country of origin with its chief bishop and centre in the ancient capital city. Seldom do we think of the church as the Mystical Body of Christ, the Head united with his many, diverse groups of members comprising the People of God. Attitudes among Eastern Catholic and Orthodox peoples not only stem from their strong national feelings, but are also deeply rooted in their ecclesiastical history and religious thought. For while the one, holy, catholic, arid apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ is unified, the Church certainly is not uniform in all aspects. Basic Understandings To understand clearly the situation it is important to establish basic understanding of some fundamental points. In the context of studying the Church, a rite refers to a local Church or specific tradition, not to ceremony or ritual. A particular Church means a style or way of living Christianity, a cultural mentality toward practicing the Gospel, a community of faith with a distinct, ancient tradition. 18 John M.

The old top-down way of getting things done is yielding to the workings of the empowered laity who are finding their own voice. One may assert that this dynamic is evidence not only of democratic enthusiasm, but of the gradual embodiment of the Second Vatican Council’s vision of the Church as the whole People of God that acts in accordance with the principles of collegiality and subsidiarity as well. The above minor critical observations notwithstanding, readers come away from this work thoroughly instructed on how the structure of the Catholic Church is a central determinant of the church’s participation in postcommunist East Central Europe.

Write: Permissions, Wipf and Stock Publishers, 199 West 8th Avenue, Suite 3, Eugene, OR 97401, USA The Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies (JBTS) is a peer reviewed academic journal focused on the fields of Bible and Theology from an inter-denominational point of view. The journal is comprised of an editorial board of scholars that represent several academic institutions throughout the world. JBTS is concerned with presenting high level original scholarship in an approachable way. Academic journals are often written by scholars for other scholars. They are technical in nature, assuming a robust knowledge of the field. There are fewer journals that seek to introduce biblical and theological scholarship that is also accessible to students. JBTS seeks to provide high-level scholarship and research to both scholars and students, which results in original scholarship that is readable and accessible. As an inter-denominational journal, JBTS is broadly evangelical. We accept contributions in all theological disciplines from any evangelical perspective.

  • Catholicity and a Vocation for the Anglican Communion 71-96
    ATR/102.1 Catholicity and a Vocation for the Anglican Communion Bruce Kaye* For several decades now, Anglican churches around the world have been struggling with serious conflicts about gender relation- ships. Internal troubles have been most apparent in the United States, Canada, England, Scotland, and more recently in Aotearoa New Zealand. These conflicts between churches have occupied the attention of the institutions of the Anglican Communion, usually in terms of establishing some framework of unity between the churches. In this context, I wish to suggest a different way of ap- proaching these issues. I want to draw on a renewed sense of cath- olicity in the church and of the eschatological framework in which all Christians are called to live. In the process, I hope to offer a picture of what might be a vocation for the Anglican Communion, specifically its institutions, that will better honor the narrative tra- dition of Anglicanism and provide a more effective way into en- gaging with the problems of our times. Keywords: Anglican Communion, catholicity, Lambeth, Con- stantine, ecclesiology, Vatican II, Inter-Anglican Theological and Doctrinal Commission The Background The conflict between the churches of the Anglican Communion over the morality of same-sex relationships quickly showed some dis- tinctive issues at stake. First, it was an institutional issue in the sense that it focused on the actions of provinces, which in Anglicanism were * Bruce Kaye taught New Testament and Hermeneutics in Durham University (UK) for fifteen years, and Social Values and Institutions at the University of New South Wales in Sydney for ten years, before becoming General Secretary of the An- glican Church of Australia.

  • Corpus Christi Church, New York
    VOLUME 94 | APRIL 2020 | MASHECK JOSEPH MASHECK Corpus Christi Church, New York Its Architecture and Art he treasured church of Corpus Christi on Morningside Heights in T Manhattan (“Corpus”), is known for liturgy and music—including com- missioned Mass music and congregational singing in Gregorian chant and English—rather than as a work of architecture or a site for art. Yet in the mid- and later-twentieth century the parish that worshipped in this, its second church built on West 121st Street in Manhattan, was no stranger to contem- porary culture. In 1938, two years after the church opened, Thomas Merton was conditionally baptized here.1 Three years later, the bombing of Pearl Harbor occurred during Advent; the next day, December 8, 1941, the US declared war on Japan; a few days later, children of the parish school, directed by one of their Dominican teaching sisters, found themselves painting a nativity mural with Japanese figures in a Japanese landscape.2 During the war, the French Jewish philoso- pher Simone Weil, who lived on Riverside Drive in 1942, often visited Corpus Christi for Mass, sitting, legend has it, in the back row. Corpus was in the forefront of the liturgical movement: I remember being taken here as a boy in the 1950s to participate in a “Dialogue Mass”—then considered extraordinary. (In the ’60s, Worship was sold in the vestibule.)

  • From Catholic Reformation and Counter-Reformation to Ressourcement and Aggiornamento
    ROMAN CATHOLICISM THEN AND NOW: FROM CATHOLIC REFORMATION AND COUNTER-REFORMATION TO RESSOURCEMENT AND AGGIORNAMENTO Ninth Triennial Convention of the CELC Rev. Timothy R. Schmeling, Ph.D. Grimma, Germany Professor of Old Testament, Symbolics, and Church History June 28/29–July 2, 2017 Bethany Lutheran Theological Seminary, Mankato, MN It is the eve of the five hundredth anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation. Naturally, many are wondering, “Is Lutheranism still relevant today?” If one were to examine the historiography of Martin Luther (1483–1546), one would see that Roman Catholic church historians have come to paint a much more positive picture of the reformer and the need for his theology than they did in the past.1 In 1976, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (1927–), the future Pope Benedict XVI, went so far as to make the following striking assertion (which it should be noted never came to fruition). The researches of the past few years converge in understanding that the CA [Confessio Augustana] as the basic Lutheran confessional document was drawn up as it was not only for diplomatic reason, that it might be possible to interpret it under the laws of the empire as a catholic confession; it was also drafted with inner conviction as a searching for evangelical catholicity—as a painstaking effort to filter the bubbling cauldron of the early Reformation movement in such a way that it might give it the shape of a catholic reform. Accordingly, efforts are under way to achieve a Catholic recognition of the CA or, more correctly a recognition

  • European Catholicity?
    the Europe of wars of religion European catholicity? Pierre COUHAULT Nicolas RICHARD ABSTRACT After the Reformation, the part of the Church that remained loyal to the pope and Rome continued to consider itself as Catholic, which is to say universal. However, reconfigurations of its geography forced it to examine this universal dimension, for while European Christianity was amputated of almost the entirety of the Germanic, Scandinavian, and British worlds, it grew with new mission lands in America and Asia. On the European continent, it was faced with dual competition during the early modern period, namely the expansion of Islam in the East and of Protestantism in Europe. It reacted with a missionary impetus in all directions. Guided by Christ and the Virgin Mary, Peter (the pope) holds the rudder of the ship carrying the apostles and saints. The Doctors of the Church propel the ship toward reconquered Constantinople, while the saints of the Counter-Reformation, led by the archangel Michael, defend it against ancient (Arius) and modern (Luther and Calvin) heresiarchs. In the four corners are scenes evoking the expansion of Christianity, the Crusades, and martyrdom. Painted in Mexico, this allegory of the Counter-Reformation Church was inspired by Italian engravings. Anonymous painter of the seventeenth century, The Ship of Mystical Contemplation (The Triumph of the Catholic Church), Tepotzotlán, Museo Nacional del Virreinato. Source : Wikimedia Commons “Catholicity” generally refers to the spiritual, institutional, and political solidarity that brings together, but without always overlapping, the Christians who remained loyal to Rome after the Reformation, the clergy subject to the pope, and a series of geopolitical states that share this faith, chiefly in Europe.
