They will return to their monasteries in developing nations to help prepare future generations to give witness to the faith, which Jesus Christ has proclaimed. 2 | Fall 2012 For those Benedictines who come from the traditional centers of Western Civilization, particularly Europe and the Americas, the Year of Faith provides an opportunity to reinvigorate the faith by preparing teachers and preachers who will be able to take on the challenges of an increasingly secularized culture—a Board culture which in many ways is indifferent or even hostile to the Gospel message.

Over 150 patrons of the SBEF gathered for the event, which supports the education of Benedictine students at Sant’ Anselmo, the international Benedictine University in Rome. The Foundation expresses its heartfelt gratitude to the Committee for the “Sunset at the Barn” event and to those who generously supported the event. The Pittsburgh-Latrobe-Greensburg chapter has raised over 4 | Fall 2012 $20,000 in the past year to fund a full scholarship. Letters from Rome Gratitude for Becoming his Country’s first Doctor of Liturgy Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ and Saint Benedict, I would like to thank Sant’ Anselmo for this opportunity to briefly summarize my experience at the Pontifical Liturgical Institute. It has been a marvelous experience for me from all points of views: spiritual, cultural and intellectual. I had to learn a new language, Italian, and adjust to a new culture and lifestyle, because in my land of Burkina Faso, in the African Savannah, we have a very different lifestyle and, even more, a very different sense of life as a whole. However, every day that passed was a further step towards a richer relationship with my fellow students. This very positive experience helped the rest of my academic studies, which were finished, on June 4, 2012, with the defense of my doctoral thesis. During the third year of my doctorate, in January 2010, the Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI, asked me to work with the Secretariat of State in the Vatican. Thus I had to carry two demanding responsibilities: to write my thesis and to work in the Curia. I thank the Lord that He gave me the strength to do this; otherwise I would have had to give up my doctorate. Once more, I felt myself supported and encouraged by my professors at the Pontifical Liturgical Institute, my classmates and my other friends and colleagues. The experience of Sant’ Anselmo prepares those who will work for the young Churches. I am very grateful to the Saint Benedict Education Foundation, which supported me with a scholarship for the three years of my doctoral studies. The Foundation should know that, thanks to its generosity, I received the first ever doctorate in sacred liturgy in my country, and my country truly has great need of such experts. We hope to be able to send more students to Sant’ Anselmo for priestly and academic formation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. May God bless all those involved in the work of the Foundation.

  • Bearings, We Look for Clues About the Future of the Church by Paying Attention to the Church of the Present
    for the Life of Faith A UTUMN 2013 A Publication of the Collegeville Institute for Ecumenical and Cultural Research Editors’ Note Theologian James Gustafson once referred to the church as housing “treasure in earthen vessels.” Treasure may abide, but earthenware is notoriously apt to chip, crack, and shatter. It’s an appropriate image for our time. Far and wide, scholars are diagnosing a permanent state of decline in the institutional church as we know it, at least in the West. According to nearly every marker of institutional health, the church is failing. It is bitterly divided, financially strapped, plagued by abuses of power, shrinking in numbers, and poorly regarded in public perception. Tellingly, a growing number of prominent Christian figures are quite willing to bid farewell to the church—the very institution that reared them and upon which their livelihood depends. With titles such as Jesus for the Non-Religious, Saving Jesus from the Church, and Christianity After Religion, various church leaders are suggesting that the church may be more of a hindrance than a help to Christian identity and mission in today’s context. It’s hard not to hear echoes of theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer who, over 75 years ago, warned in his book The Cost of Discipleship of a church “overlaid with so much human ballast—burdensome rules and regulations, false hopes and consola- tions,” that it stood in danger of abandoning its central call to follow the way of Jesus. Even if the church is coming to some sort of an end, Christianity is still very much with us.
