U DAPS Records of Apostleship of the Sea 1922-2014 Hull History Centre: Apostleship of the Sea U DAPS Records of Apostleship of the Sea 1922-2014 Accession number: 2014/20 Historical Background: The Apostleship of the Sea (AoS, or Apostolatus Maris in Latin) is a Catholic charity whose work is focused on the pastoral and practical care of seafarers of any nationality, race or belief whilst they away from their homes and families. From the late 19th century various Catholic Seamen's Missions were established at major ports throughout the world, and various work to help seafarers was undertaken by individual countries and by the Catholic Society of St Vincent de Paul. The first AoS branch was established in 1899 at the port of Glasgow by Father Egger as the Apostleship of Prayer Society. A framework and constitution was submitted to the Holy See in Rome and, in 1922, a letter of encouragement was sent from the Holy See. The movement grew and AoS were established at other major ports around the world. The laws and constitution of the movement were officially approved on 21 November 1957 and the now international movement became known as Apostolatus Maris, named after Mary, the Catholic patron saint of seafarers also known as 'Our Lady' and 'Star of the Sea'. Today, many centres use the name 'Stella Maris' ('Star of the Sea' in English) in recognition of this patron. Until the 2nd Vatican Council in 1966 the international network of AoS was governed by the AMIC. The AMIC was dissolved by the Council of 1966 and was replaced by the International Permanent Bureau (also known as the International General Secretariat). From 1970, AoS has been under the direction of the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrant Workers and Itinerant People, which itself was established at the Council of 1966 and is governed by the International Permanent Bureau. In the UK, individual AoS in the UK were the responsibility of their respective diocese. However, in 2000 a merger took place to create one organisation known as AoS (Great Britain). The Liverpool AoS remained an exception to this, and continues to be governed as a separate organisation by the diocese of Liverpool. Whilst the purpose of the AoS has remained unchanged throughout its history, its work has evolved in response to the changing nature of the shipping industry. When first established, local AoS operated hostels at their local port so seafarers away from home, and in port for a few days, had somewhere to stay. When overnight stays were no longer necessary in the shipping industry, local AoS instead provided drop-in centres. The centres were equipped with email and telephone access, facilities to get a drink and stock up on essentials, and spaces for seafarers to relax and chat. The presence in port of a chaplain and volunteer ship visitors has always been a feature of the work of the AoS. Currently, AoS operates at over 250 ports worldwide, including 14 ports in the UK. Each year Catholic churches around the world celebrate Sea Sunday, and this day is the principle fundraising and awareness raising event in the AoS's annual calendar.

  • From Conversion to Violent Extremism: Empirical Analysis of Three Canadian Muslim Converts to Islam
    Spring 2021 Nr. 26 ISSN: 2363-9849 From Conversion to Violent Extremism: Empirical Analysis of Three Canadian Muslim Converts to Islam Denis Suljića1, Alex Wilnerb aResearcher, Hedayah International Center of Excellence for Countering Violent Extremism, bAssociate Professor of International Affairs, Norman Paterson School of International Affairs (NPSIA), Carleton University Abstract Article History The scholarship on radicalization to violence often treats born Muslims and Received Dec 23, 2020 converts interchangeably; far too little research is focused on understanding the Accepted Mar 17, 2021 factors and processes driving converts in particular. This is a problem given that there is overwhelming evidence demonstrating that Muslim converts are Published Mar 26, 2021 overrepresented among Western foreign fighters. Data from Canada corroborates this larger point: converts are highly representative in attempted and successful domestic terrorist attacks. Our article explores conversion to Islam and political violence as it relates to recent trends in Canadian Jihadist militancy. We distill the theoretical literature on conversion and radicalization to seven explanatory factors, including ideology; social networks; charismatic authority; political grievances; psychology; socio-economic and criminal circumstance; and enabling environments. We then build original empirical case studies – based on expert interviews and open-sourced documents – of three Canadian converts who engaged in terrorism, including John Maguire, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, and Damian Clairmont. Using these case studies, we contextualize, analyze, and expand our collective understanding of conversion to violence, providing lessons for theory and methodology. Keywords: Conversion, Radicalization, Violent Extremism, Canada, Case Studies Introduction Radicalization to violence is a persistent and evolving challenge. The scholarship on the subject, however, often treats born Muslims and converts interchangeably.

  • UFC on FUEL TV: STRUVE Vs. MIOCIC
    UFC On FUEL TV: STRUVE vs. MIOCIC Las Vegas, Nevada – The Ultimate Fighting Championship® organization returns to England this Saturday for an all- action card at the Capital FM Arena in Nottingham. In the heavyweight main event, the biggest man in the UFC® – 6ft 11inch Stefan “Skyscraper” Struve – collides with unbeaten uber-athlete Stipe Miocic in a fight which will catapult the winner towards the top of the division. Also on the stacked television card, charismatic welterweight Dan “the Outlaw” Hardy fights in his historic hometown for the first time since April of 2008 when he takes on The Ultimate Fighter winner Amir Sadollah and, in what could be the most exciting all-British battle in Octagon® history, elite welterweight John “Hitman” Hathaway takes on John “The One” Maguire. At an open workout today, the combatants sounded ready to go to war. Stefan Struve said: “Five round fight? It’s not a five round fight. This isn’t going five. It is a one or two round fight, depending on when I finish him. I am not worried about going five rounds if it happens, I hit pads for an hour at a time and every Thursday at my gym it is pretty much fight night where we do 15 x five minute rounds. I’ve changed nothing in my training. If it goes longer, okay, but I think this is a quick fight. “A win here puts me in the top five in the world. There’s a lot of hype on this guy and he’s also coming off a big win.

During the last few years there has undoubtedly been more concern shown by congregations and dioceses in their history and in preserving the archives and other historical evidences recording it. Clear indications of this concern are the realisation that the original vocation of a religious congregation, the renewal of which is urged by Vatican II, is recorded principally in its archives, the provisions for the care of archives in rules and constitutions of congregations and in the new code of canon law, the encouragement given to archivists by the Conferences of Major Religious Super- iors in both countries, and new appointments of archivists in several dioceses within recent years.
