TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME SEPTEMBER 26, 2021 Scripture Reflection…. The scene in this Sunday’s Gospel picks up where we left off last week in Mark. As Jesus continues to unpack what it means to be his follower, where greatness lies not in status but in service, the disciples misread the mission…again. This time it’s not arrogance or pride, but jealousy. This week we find the disciple John approach Jesus with insecurity. An unknown exorcist is driving out demons in Jesus’ name, but does not follow Jesus. So, the disciples try to prevent this exorcist. Why? Previously, Jesus gave them the power to drive out demons (Mk 3:15, 6:7) and the idea that someone else is doing so is unacceptable to the disciples. That task belongs to them, not non- followers. However, once again Jesus calls them into a deeper understanding: “whoever is not against us is for us” (9:40). In today’s terms, this unknown exorcist may call to mind those who call themselves Christians, but do not practice the faith and Sacraments. Jesus challenges us to welcome their goodness and acts of kindness and healing in the world, not to respond with condemnation or judgement. Who in our lives are we inviting or discouraging from practicing their faith? Finally, Jesus calls those who do follow him to encourage others in faith, not to become obstacles for them. The Greek word in this passage for “sin” connotes “stumbling.” His metaphorical speech vividly drives home the point: “if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off” (9:43). Such is Jesus’ invitation: how much more important is it for us who practice our faith to truly live it, and by doing so, inspire others to live theirs more fully. As disciples, are our lives stumbling blocks or conduits to another person’s experience of God’s love and mercy? COLLECTION FOR VICTIMS OF HURRICANE IDA The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has asked dioceses around the country to encourage parishes to take up a collection to help address the tremendous needs in the United States following the devastation and destruction caused by Hurricane Ida. During the weekend of September 25th and 26th, we will be taking up a collection here at St. Thomas. Please put your donation in an envelope marked for “Hurricane Ida Collection” and make all checks payable to St. Thomas of Villanova, with “Hurricane Ida” noted on the memo line.

The title, Tolle Lege, comes from the conversion scene in St. Augustine’s masterpiece of literature, philosophy and theology, Confessions, written around 397. The phrase is Latin for “take up and read.” Augustine took up Paul’s letter to the Romans and read a passage which changed his life. Whether you are a graduate of Villanova, a friend of the University or a prospective new student, this small book will not change your life, but it is designed to help you get to know, understand or appreciate even more fully, the community that is Villanova.

Their first establishment within the present limits of the United States was made at Philadelphia in 1796 with the founda- tion of Old Saint Augustine's Church. From this venerable old church and from Saint Augustine's Academy, opened there in 1811, Villanova University traces its lineage. In 1841, "Belle Air," the country estate of John Rudolph, Revolutionary officer and merchant, was acquired and in 1843, the college opened and v1as placed under the patronage of Saint Thomas of Villanova, a distinguished Augustinian writer and edu- cator and the Archbishop of Valencia in sixteenth-century Spain. And here in one of the mellowest countrysides in America is the University today, with its Gothic towers, its greystone and its lovely verdure,- spread upon the gentle hills along Lancaster Pike.

  • Hagiographic Reformulation, Distinction and Symbolic Capital in Francisco De Quevedo's Epitome of Saint Thomas of Villanova
    Hagiographic Reformulation, Distinction and Symbolic Capital in Francisco de Quevedo’s Epitome of Saint Thomas of Villanova Germán de Patricio1 Towson University Abstract: In 1620 Francisco de Quevedo wrote a hagiography called Epitome of St. Thomas of Villanova. This work was supposed to summarize the life of the Augustinian friar Tomás de Villanueva (†1555), beatified in 1618 and canonized in 1658. The Epitome is printed between these two dates as part of the effort to convince the Roman Catholic Church of the holiness of a man who had been archbishop of Valencia and after whom Villanova University was named. Yet in Quevedo’s hands the text might have become a tool to attack his enemies, to display symbolic capital and to stand out in political terms showing off his independence and his agenda for an ethical regeneration of the government. In light of theoretical models of Cultural Sociology derived from the works of Pierre Bourdieu, the Epitome, like other Quevedo’s works, may have acted as a display of distinction and ostentation of symbolic capital within the fields of literature and political power. Keywords: Quevedo, hagiography, Thomas of Villanova, symbolic capital fter seven years serving as Secretary of the Spanish Viceroy in Italy, Francisco de Quevedo returned to Spain in 1620. Because his prestige as a politician had now been added to his reputation as a writer, the A Augustinians asked him to write a brief hagiography: the Epitome of Tomás de Villanueva. This work was intended to summarize the life of Tomás García Martínez (†1555), who had been renamed Tomás de Villanueva after the town in La Mancha where he grew up, Villanueva de los Infantes.

  • 388-Sant Ldefonso in Via Sistina.Pages
    (388/12) Santi Ildefonso e Tommaso da Villanova The church of Saints Ildefonso and Thomas of Villanova is a 17th century convent church of Rome, in the. The dedication is to two Spanish saints: Ildephonsus of Toledo and Thomas of Villanova. History In 1619 Fr Gabriel Concepcion bought an area in Via Sistina, in the land owned by the senator Pincio and founded a hospice for the Augustinians Recollects, a Spanish reform movement within the Augustinian friars which was recognized at a chapter held by the Friars at Toledo in 1588. In 1652 a congregation of Spanish subjects was founded, entitled "The School of Christ" which had the approval of Pope Innocent X (1644-55), who then annexed the hospice. Ten years later, on the tenth anniversary of the death of Saint Ildefonso (1667), the construction of the church began. The first stone was laid September 20 of that year by Msgr. Gionanni Baptist Emilio Altieri, who became Pope Clement X (1670-76). The project was entrusted to architect Dominican friar and architect P. Giuseppe Paglia, already known for having renovated the chapel of St. Dominic in the Basilica of Santa Maria sopra Minerva. The stucco work was performed by the brothers Antonio and Carlo Cometti. On January 18, 1672 the present church was consecrated and opened to the public. It is dedicated to two saints of Spanish origin, Ildefonso of Toledo, a 7th century archibishop of Toledo where the Recollects had their beginnings, and St Thomas of Villanova (Villanueva in Spanish) because he was a great 16th century Augustinian archbishop of Valencia.

  • The Heart of the Matter Presents Potent Examples of How the Office for Mission and Ministry Supports the Communal Vocation to Be Augustinian and Catholic
    2018-19 ANNUAL REPORT THE HEART O F THE MATTER VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY THE OFFICE FOR MISSION AND MINISTRY G42750_AnnualReport.indd 1 1/27/20 12:32 PM eing an Augustinian and Catholic university does not mean that we at Villanova mimic the fourth-century philosopher and theologian or that we take the place of the institutional Church. The reality is much more Bcomplex and fruitful. Across campus and especially in the Office for Mission and Ministry, we explore how Augustine’s ways of thinking, believing and engaging with his cultural milieu can be relevant for our approach to the problems, hopes and challenges of today. In so doing, we draw on a rich intellectual tradition that harnesses the power of faith and reason working in sync—not at odds or independently. This issue of The Heart of the Matter presents potent examples of how the Office for Mission and Ministry supports the communal vocation to be Augustinian and Catholic. These examples include promoting sustainable practices, developing selfless leaders, convening experts to assess Francis’ papacy, collaborating on humanitarian work in Madagascar, creating extracurricular space to pursue the life of the mind, and sponsoring a pilgrimage to delve into the University’s heritage. I want to express my gratitude to all my colleagues in the Office for Mission and Ministry, as well as to the contributors to this publication: Allan Fitzgerald, OSA; Linda Jaczynski; Sean McElwee; Arthur Purcaro, OSA; Jeffrey Sachs; and Suzanne Wentzel.
