The Letters of Saint Ignatius of Antioch
Catechetical Series: What Catholics Believe & Why THE LETTERS OF SAINT IGNATIUS OF ANTIOCH Behold The Truth Discovering the What & Why of the Catholic Faith beholdthetruth.com Bishop and Martyr Saint Ignatius was the third Bishop of the Church of Antioch, after Saint Evodius, the direct successor there of the Apostle Peter. Ignatius was also a disciple of the Apostle John; and friend to Saint Polycarp of Smyrna, another of John’s disciples. In about 107 A.D., he was arrested by the Roman soldiers and brought to Rome to be thrown to the wild beasts in the Coliseum. On the journey from Antioch to Rome, he wrote seven letters to Churches in cities he passed along the way; and these letters have been handed down to us. On the Blessed Trinity & Divinity of Christ Ignatius’ letters provide invaluable insight into the beliefs and practices of the first generation of Christians to follow the Apostles. We find evidence, for instance, of the Christian belief in the Blessed Trinity. “You are like stones for a temple of the Father,” he writes, “prepared for the edifice of God the Father, hoisted to the heights by the crane of Jesus Christ, which is the cross, using for a rope the Holy Spirit.” Letter to the Ephesians 9:1 There is evidence as well for the belief in the divinity of Christ. In the opening of his Letter to the Romans, he writes, “I wish [you] an unalloyed joy in Jesus Christ, our God.” The Importance of the Church & Sacraments Ignatius reveals a belief in the necessity of the Church and sacraments for salvation. -
Constructing 'Race': the Catholic Church and the Evolution of Racial Categories and Gender in Colonial Mexico, 1521-1700

Castillo August, 2017 i CONSTRUCTING ‘RACE’: THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE EVOLUTION OF RACIAL CATEGORIES AND GENDER IN COLONIAL MEXICO, 1521-1700 _______________ An Abstract of a Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Department of History University of Houston _______________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy _______________ By Alexandria E. Castillo August, 2017 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of the Catholic Church in defining racial categories and construction of the social order during and after the Spanish conquest of Mexico, then New Spain. The Catholic Church, at both the institutional and local levels, was vital to Spanish colonization and exercised power equal to the colonial state within the Americas. Therefore, its interests, specifically in connection to internal and external “threats,” effected New Spain society considerably. The growth of Protestantism, the Crown’s attempts to suppress Church influence in the colonies, and the power struggle between the secular and regular orders put the Spanish Catholic Church on the defensive. Its traditional roles and influence in Spanish society not only needed protecting, but reinforcing. As per tradition, the Church acted as cultural center once established in New Spain. However, the complex demographic challenged traditional parameters of social inclusion and exclusion which caused clergymen to revisit and refine conceptions of race and gender. -
OPUS IMPERFECTUM AUGUSTINE and HIS READERS, 426-435 A.D. by MARK VESSEY on the Fifth Day Before the Kalends of September [In
OPUS IMPERFECTUM AUGUSTINE AND HIS READERS, 426-435 A.D. BY MARK VESSEY On the fifth day before the Kalends of September [in the thirteenth consulship of the emperor 'Theodosius II and the third of Valcntinian III], departed this life the bishop Aurelius Augustinus, most excellent in all things, who at the very end of his days, amid the assaults of besieging Vandals, was replying to I the books of Julian and persevcring glorioi.islyin the defence of Christian grace.' The heroic vision of Augustine's last days was destined to a long life. Projected soon after his death in the C,hronicleof Prosper of Aquitaine, reproduccd in the legendary biographies of the Middle Ages, it has shaped the ultimate or penultimate chapter of more than one modern narrative of the saint's career.' And no wonder. There is something very compelling about the picture of the aged bishop recumbent against the double onslaught of the heretical monster Julian and an advancing Vandal army, the ex- tremity of his plight and writerly perseverance enciphering once more the unfathomable mystery of grace and the disproportion of human and divine enterprises. In the chronicles of the earthly city, the record of an opus mag- num .sed imperfectum;in the numberless annals of eternity, thc perfection of God's work in and through his servant Augustine.... As it turned out, few observers at the time were able to abide by this providential explicit and Prosper, despite his zeal for combining chronicle ' Prosper, Epitomachronicon, a. 430 (ed. Mommsen, MGH, AA 9, 473). Joseph McCabe, .SaintAugustine and His Age(London 1902) 427: "Whilst the Vandals thundered at the walls Augustine was absorbed in his great refutation of the Pelagian bishop of Lclanum, Julian." Other popular biographers prefer the penitential vision of Possidius, hita Augustini31,1-2. -

The Church in Antioch (Adventures in Acts, Session 11) Thursday, November 29, 2007
The Church in Antioch (Adventures in Acts, session 11) Thursday, November 29, 2007 Before considering the church as it is founded in Antioch (in what is now Turkey), transmitted to us in Acts 11:19 (and following), let us quickly resituate the development of the early church according to what precedes in the Acts of the Apostles: • Stephen, the deacon, is martyred in approximately 35 AD (Acts 7:54-60). • Persecution follows, and the church in Jerusalem is scattered, except the Apostles (Acts 8:11). Why were the Apostles not scattered? It is perhaps because they were of Jewish origin, and, as “Jewish Christians”, they were less of a threat to the Temple and to the Law. Their concentration in Jerusalem, of course, proves to be an obvious source of strength to the Church nascent. • Philip, the next deacon on the list after Stephen (Acts 6:5), begins his preaching (Acts 8:4-8). • Simon the magician, a prominent figure in Samaria, is converted through Peter (Acts 8:9-25). • The Ethiopian eunuch is converted through Philip (Acts 8:26-40). • Saul, the hard and ferocious persecutor, is converted through no intermediary, on his way to Damascus (Acts 9:1-19). He needed direct lightning! • At once Saul begins his preaching right there in Damascus (Acts 9:20-22), then continues in Jerusalem, where he encounters the Apostles (Acts 9:23-30). Interestingly, he returns to the place of his persecution of the Church to bring healing and reparation. Indeed, when possible, the Holy Spirit often leads us to do the same: to bring healing and reparation there where we once brought pain and division. -

Drops-September-2020-English-1
OUR MISSION Drops of Wisdom - Volume 2, no. 4 - September 2020 p. 1 The beginning of our Mission does not go too deep in the past. The thought of the need for a place of worship started to materialize in 2012, when a dialogue The Beginning of the Church Year was initiated with the Romanian Orthodox Episcopate of America to appoint a permanent parish priest so that the Romanians in the Province of New Brunswick September 1st, 2020 could gather and unite in prayer, under the protective hand of God. With the blessing of His Eminence, Archbishop Nathaniel, the first service eptember 1st, as the beginning of the was held on Christmas Day 2016, and continued up until July 2020, where we S would alternate officiating Holy Liturgy every Sunday in one of the main Church year, was borrowed from the Jews. This provincial parish districts– Moncton, Fredericton, and St. George. is what the Synaxarion in the Menaion shows us. The Holy Liturgies are addressed not only to the Romanian believers, but The Jews begin the calendar with the month of also to other Orthodox believers, as the liturgical language is in Romanian, Tishri, which is September. On the first day of English, and Russian as well. September, the Jews would have the day off to July 25, 2020 – HISTORICAL MOMENT offer burnt sacrifices to the Lord. On this day, the Saint Hierarch Varlaam found a house of prayer and According to tradition, the Saviour, Jesus Christ, began His public ministry on September remembrance by the signing of the offer to buy a place of worship. -

Rowe, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Supervisor Dr. J. Geoffrey Kron, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Departmental Member The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether the Roman administrative towns of Britain continued in their original Romanized form as seen in the second century AD, or were altered in their appearance and function in the fourth and fifth century, with a visible reduction in their urbanization and Romanization. It will be argued that British town life did change significantly. Major components of urbanization were disrupted with the public buildings disused or altered for other purposes, and the reduction or cessation of public services. A reduction in the population of the towns can be perceived in the eventual disuse of the extramural cemeteries and abandonment of substantial areas of settlement or possibly entire towns. -
