The C.Y.O is an International Organization which exist in all parts of the world in different names. It was founded in Ghana by His Lordship, Right Rev. Bishop Adolf Noser, SVD, DD of the Accra Diocese and Rev. Peter Norek, SVD in 1949 at the time when the majority of the Youth was left to themselves without guidance. It appointed Mr. Victor Ako-Adonuvo as its first full time Director in 1951. Later he became the National Chairman in 1960. In 1951, His Excellency Sir Charles Noble Arden Clarke, K.C.M.G the then Governor of the Gold Coast now Ghana, laid the foundation of the C.Y.O Sports Stadium at Adoagyiri- Nsawam. Branches of the movement spread throughout the country on Diocesan basis independent of each other. It was in 1959 that a National Federation of All Catholic Youth Movements in all the various dioceses was formed at express wish of the Hierarchy. The C.Y.O was very active in the Archdiocese of Cape Coast through the dynamism of Rev. Fr. Vincent Kwabena Damuah, Archbishop John Kodwo Amissah and the members. Working closely with the then National Chairman, Rev. Damuah directed the activities of the C.Y.O in Saltpond so creditably that in January 1963 he was detained for 5 days for criticizing some aspects of the defunct Young Pioneer Movement programme especially the deification and institutionalization doctrines. 4 The C.Y.O is a beneficiary of the National Trust Fund and its effective contribution towards Ghana’s independence from colonial domination was specially noted. The C.Y.O is devoted to facilitate and conduct training courses in the field of Youth Service, to seek and administer funds for Youth Service, to co-operate with the Church, the Government and other agencies concerned with Youth Service to foster and co-ordinate activities of Church societies dealing with Youth. WHAT IS THE C.Y.O? The C.Y.O is an Organization which taking the parish as its base, and without regard to social class or profession, provides for young people a Christian Community life order to prepare them for active co-operation in building a living church and a better world. Further, it is the objective of the organization to inspire, direct and guide the natural creative qualities and desire of young people by promoting recreational, educational, cultural and religious programme that will adequately meet their physical, mental and spiritual needs. 5 INITIATION REQUIREMENTS One becomes a full member of the C.Y.O after initiation.

Herein, need emerges for a new, ecclesial, trinitarian, and christological paradigm to identify purposes, ends, and goods of Christian marriage. The dissertation‘s body develops the foundation and framework of this new paradigm: a Common Way in Christ. I find this paradigm by putting marriage in dialogue with an ecclesial practice already the subject of rich trinitarian, christological, ecclesial theological development: consecrated religious life.

SECULARISM AS A FALSIFICATION OF HOPE The interventions of the Pontifical magisterium at the beginning of the third millennium are characterized, among other things, by an insistent and ever more explicit appeal to Christian hope. In the Apostolic Exhortation Ecclesia in Europa the very structure of the document is built on the consideration of the present and the future of Europe from the perspective of that theological virtue. One of the passages that the Post-Synodal Exhortation dedicates to the diagnosis of the cultural and sociological situation of the old continent—which is indeed perfectly transferable to other geographic and human areas—describes with intense flourishes some of the symptoms of a marked “dimming of hope”: “by a kind of practical agnosticism and religious indifference whereby many Europeans give the impression of living without spiritual roots—somewhat like heirs who have squandered a patrimony entrusted to them by history. Many people are no longer able to integrate the Gospel message into their daily experience; living one's faith in Jesus becomes increasingly difficult in a social and cultural setting in which that faith is constantly challenged and threatened. In many social settings it is easier to identify oneself as an agnostic than as a believer.

  • Marko Robert-Eng
    THE ONE VISIBLE DIVINELY INSTITUTED CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE CHALLENGES OF UNITY Robert P. Marko, Ph.D., 2015-16 Fulbright Scholar, Ukrainian Catholic Unversity Abstract Unlike the Protestant reformers of the sixteenth century, such as John Calvin, who saw the Church of Rome as a mere “vestige” or ruin of the Church of Christ, Catholicism has maintained that the concrete historical visible reality of the Church of Christ is found in the Catholic Church. In the words of Robert Bellarmine: "the Church is only one, and not two; and that one and true [Church] is the assembly of men (women) gathered in the profession of the same Christian faith, and in the communion of the same sacraments, under the reign of legitimate pastors, and especially of the one vicar of Christ on earth, the Roman Pontiff." In the visible Catholic Church, there is fullness of doctrine, true sacraments and legitimate authority. The official decrees of Vatican II, specifically Lumen Gentium and Unitatis Redintegratio continue the Bellarmine definition of Church that was popularized in Catholic catechesis for centuries. However, the decrees reflect a significant change in tone and recognize elements of the Church of Christ outside of full incorporation in Catholicism. This understanding of Church as a visible, historical reality "subsisting" in the Catholic Church is not without challenges to full communion of Christians. Key words: This short article deals with the classic definition of the Church, found in the Catholic or Counter Reformation theologian and cardinal, Robert Bellarmine in his Disputations on the Controversies of the Christian Faith, Vol II and how that definition of the visible, institutional nature of the community of believers is the official position of Catholicism.

  • Beyond the Bosphorus: the Holy Land in English Reformation Literature, 1516-1596
    BEYOND THE BOSPHORUS: THE HOLY LAND IN ENGLISH REFORMATION LITERATURE, 1516-1596 Jerrod Nathan Rosenbaum A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Jessica Wolfe Patrick O’Neill Mary Floyd-Wilson Reid Barbour Megan Matchinske ©2019 Jerrod Nathan Rosenbaum ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Jerrod Rosenbaum: Beyond the Bosphorus: The Holy Land in English Reformation Literature, 1516-1596 (Under the direction of Jessica Wolfe) This dissertation examines the concept of the Holy Land, for purposes of Reformation polemics and apologetics, in sixteenth-century English Literature. The dissertation focuses on two central texts that are indicative of two distinct historical moments of the Protestant Reformation in England. Thomas More's Utopia was first published in Latin at Louvain in 1516, roughly one year before the publication of Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses signaled the commencement of the Reformation on the Continent and roughly a decade before the Henrician Reformation in England. As a humanist text, Utopia contains themes pertinent to internal Church reform, while simultaneously warning polemicists and ecclesiastics to leave off their paltry squabbles over non-essential religious matters, lest the unity of the Church catholic be imperiled. More's engagement with the Holy Land is influenced by contemporary researches into the languages of that region, most notably the search for the original and perfect language spoken before the episode at Babel. As the confusion of tongues at Babel functions etiologically to account for the origin of all ideological conflict, it was thought that the rediscovery of the prima lingua might resolve all conflict.

  • Praying with Young People
    Praying with young people Young people can often find the act of praying a challenge. Their world can be so full and loud with the variety of activities they take on outside of their formal education. Therefore, enabling young people to find time and space to pray, and helping them to see the value of stillness and prayer is an important aspect of their formation as young Christians. As Cardinal Basil Hume says in his book, ‘To be a Pilgrim’, “One of the best definitions of prayer is the one in the catechism: “Prayer is the raising of the mind and the heart to God”. Better perhaps to say: Prayer is trying to raise our hearts and minds to God.” To be aware of themselves, of God and to connect in their own way by making the considered decision to try and pray are key to establishing a prayer life. The desire for their own sacred space: Young people can often desire their own space in which to pray. Some maybe self-conscious in large group situations where they feel forced to contribute or pray a certain way. Encouraging young people to find their own ‘sacred space’ is key to enabling them to be still, be aware and connect with God. The desire for security and regularity: Young people can often feel more secure in a regular group setting such as a parish youth group. Being with their peers with a common cause or aim can help them feel part of that community and connected to God through the cause or prayer.

Key components in any National Directory for Catechesis are an analysis of the local situation in relation to catechesis and a programme of action. Relevant principles on pedagogy/methodology and a summary of the content of Faith may helpfully be included. All aspects of the National Directory must be faithful to the Church’s guidance, most particularly, the General Directory for Catechesis2 and Catechism of the Catholic Church3 , which are the standards of reference for pedagogy/methodology and content. This Review of Share the Good News (SGN) by Dr Éanna Johnson follows on from his involvement in this project since it was announced in 2005 as 'Dialogue in Faith', inviting interested parties to make submissions to help preparation of the new National Directory.

  • Eastern Catholic Catechesis in the United States
    Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies Vol. 40 (1999) Nos. 1–4, pp. 299–304 Eastern Catholic Catechesis in the United States John Kachuba Abstract (Українське резюме на ст. 304) In the first of three presentations on Eastern Catholic Catechesis, Fr. John Kachuba provides a brief history of the development of catechetical structures and resources for East- ern Catholics in North America. Beginning with the early 1970’s, Eastern Catholics of both the Byzantine and Syriac traditions began working together towards an “Eastern Chris- tian Formation and Development Program.” As the years progressed, specific elementary school-level programs were developed, corresponding to the respective traditions of the Churches from the East. In an effort to coordinate resources more effectively, eparchial directors formed the Eastern Catholic Conference of Diocesan Directors (ECDD), which later became a committee of the Eastern Catholic Associates, at the level of the United States National Conference of Catholic Bishops. The ECDD continues to produce materials, which serve not only to educate Eastern Catholics in their own faith and traditions, but also teach Roman Catholics about the existence and gifts of the Eastern Churches. I would like to present to you a brief history of catechesis in the Eastern Catholic Churches in the United States and some of our accomplishments and our goals. As you know, catechesis continues the teaching mission of Jesus Christ. In the Gospels, Jesus is seen many times teach- ing the crowds, his followers and his apostles. After Pentecost the Apostles proclaimed to the world what they had heard, seen and believed. 300 John Kachuba Catechesis of the people of God continues to this very day.
