    St. Aloysius Religious Education 5th grade “VOCATIONS – the game” Catechist Answers The game is played similar to Concentration. VOCATIONS is a card game where all of the cards are shuffled and are laid face down on a surface in orderly rows and columns, like so: All of the cards have a mate. Each turn, two cards are flipped over. If the cards do not match, they are both turned back face down. If the cards match, they are left face up and the person who made the match receives a point. With a VOCATIONS deck of cards there are 2 types of winning play: 1. the pair is considered the card with the picture and name of the religious order and the mission and founding of the religious order. 2. the pair is considered the card with the picture and name of the religious order and the picture and name of the religious order. 1, 2, 3 or 4 people can play VOCATIONS. More than 4 people can be divided into teams. Sisters of Life www.sistersoflife.org The Sisters of Life were an order first conceived of by Cardinal John Joseph O'Connor of New York, on a visit to the remains of a Nazi concentration camp at Dachau, Germany. Several years later, he decided to begin a new religious community in the Church, dedicated to the promotion of pro-life causes, specifically working for an end to abortion and euthanasia. He proclaimed his intentions in an newspaper article entitled “Help Wanted: Sisters of Life” in which he asked for women to consider joining.

  • CRUNCH TALK #1 God Calls Me Miriam the Spiritual Journey of a Jewish Christian
    CRUNCH TALK #1 God Calls Me Miriam The Spiritual journey of a Jewish Christian Miriam Stulberg- Madonna House Apostolate, Marian Centre, Edmonton . Miriam was raised outside of Detroit in a non-practising Jewish family. At Michigan State University, she majored in what she called "the meaning of life," graduating with a degree in humanities. Working for the Boston Welfare Department as a "completely untrained" social worker, she began to find guidance in the Gospels. God led her to the Madonna House community in Combermere, Ontario where she was baptized in 1969 and eventually joined, with lifelong promises of poverty, chastity and obedience. Miriam has served in Madonna House foundations in Canada, the U.S., France and Russia. Since 2008, she has been at Marian Centre here in Edmonton. CRUNCH TALK #2 I was born for You, Lord: What is your will for me? The Carmelite Nuns During this talk some ways to discern God's will, and how to grow in our friendship and personal relationship with Christ will be presented. There will also be time for questions and discussion. The Carmelites originated from a group of hermits on Mount Carmel, in the Holy Land. Joyfully each sister has given her life completely to God and His Church, by the profession of the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. As cloistered contemplative religious, they fulfill their apostolate of prayer within an enclosure. This allows them freedom of being totally focussed on God in silence and solitude within a community of intent on living the joy of the gospel, our beacon of light! CRUNCH TALK #3 Is it a sin not to believe in God? Peter van Kampen Assume that God is real.

  • How to Address Priests and Religious: Titles and Signs of Respect
    How to Address Priests and Religious: Titles and Signs of Respect Marian Therese Horvat, Ph.D. Before me are several interesting questions on how we should address priests and religious men and women sent to my desk recently by a lady. I will answer them today on the TIA website, since I think that my correspondent is not the only one with similar queries. In times past every Catholic used to know some of the simple rules that have been set aside from disuse. The general protocol was taught by sisters in grade school, but more often was learned as in osmosis from everyday practice. No one dreamed of calling Father O’Reilly by the nickname “Bill,” or, addressing Sister Margaret Mary as “Maggie.” Everyone knew you rose as a sign of respect when a priest or religious entered the room. Speaking before a gathering that included clergy or religious, a Catholic speaker as habit addressed them solemnly first. The dignified sisters inspired respect. Above, a sister teaches protocol in a pre-Vatican II Catholic classroom. But then came the tumultuous and leveling aftermath of Vatican II that spelled a death to formalities in the religious sphere. Priests, monks and sisters began to adopt the ways of a world that were becoming increasingly vulgar and egalitarian. Distinguishing titles and marks of respect were considered alienating and only for old- fashioned “establishment” people who were afraid to embrace the “signs of the times.” In the spirit of adaptation to the world, the cassock and habit were abandoned, along with the formal signs of respect paid to the persons who wore them.

  • 2015 Spiritual and Fiscal Report July 1, 2014 - June 30, 2015 from Our Chaplain- Fr
    GTCC 2015 Spiritual and Fiscal Report July 1, 2014 - June 30, 2015 From our Chaplain- Fr. Josh Allen Dear Alumni, Parents, and Friends, We have so much for which to be thankful in this new school year. I begin my second year as chaplain at the Georgia Tech Catholic Center, and we celebrate this year the 30th Anniversary of the dedication of our building on 4th Street. How many young minds have been formed and found refreshment inside these walls, hearing the Word of God and being encouraged and challenged to live it with all their hearts, souls, and minds? It’s overwhelming to think of the impact the Catholic Center has had on this world. Our 30th Anniversary weekend, with the Helluva Catholic Gala, Tailgate for the UNC game, and Anniversary Mass with Bishop David Talley, went splendidly. During the weekend, I kept thinking of the hundreds of marriages and thousands of children that have come from the Catholic Center in some way. Over 30 men have become priests from Georgia Tech since Fr. Mario’s tenure began. We currently have 8 men in seminary formation throughout the world, and one woman in religious formation. You will have an opportunity to get to know them a little bit in this annual report. Just this year, we have sent four men to seminary, and we have over thirty in our discernment group. The Georgia Tech Catholic Center is, by any measure, at the eart of the renewal of the Church in Atlanta and beyond. In this annual report, which we have expanded from last year, you will have the opportunity to hear from some of our students about their experiences here, and you will see some biographical information for our men and women in formation for the priesthood and religious life.

The contributions of women religious in the United States continue to be evident today in Catholic institutions of education and healthcare across the country, but there are, and have been, countless other con- tributions as well. Over the years, these valiant women have adapted to changing circumstances and forged ahead despite challenges to their way of life and ministry. The U.S. Catholic Church is indebted to the ministerial efforts and sacrifices made by women religious in the past and present. This CARA Special Report is an effort to disentangle the story of women religious in the United States that is hidden in the numbers.

This should not be seen as an ‘extra’ or as a concession which could be postponed in the face of press- ing national concerns. It is a grave and unconditional moral responsibility, founded on the unity of the human race, and on the common dignity and shared destiny of rich and poor alike, who are being drawn ever closer by the process of globalization. Trade conditions favourable to poor countries, including, above all, broad and un- conditional access to markets, should be made available and guaranteed in lasting and reliable ways. Provision must also be made for the rapid, total and unconditional cancellation of the external debt of the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) and of the Least De- veloped Countries (LDCs). Measures should also be adopted to ensure that these coun- tries do not fall once again into situations of unsustainable debt.
