  • Interview with Fr. Gregory Tatum, OP of L'ecole Biblique
    Go to Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 International Dominican Foundation SEPTEMBER 2015 President’s Message: Supporting the Ministry of Truth Dear Friends and Benefactors of IDF, In the prologue of the Primitive Constitutions of the Order of Preachers, we find the following quotation, “Our study should principally and zealously be directed to this, that we may be of help to the souls our neighbours.” St. Dominic de Gúzman’s vision for his Order of Preachers linked study to the ministry of salvation, and this link between the intellectual life and the evangelical mission of the Church continues to this day in the three institutions served by the International Dominican Foundation. Study and the teaching both flow from the motto of the Order: Contemplare et contemplata aliis tradere [Contemplate and hand on to others that which you have contemplated]. They are also intimately linked to the other motto of the Order: Veritas [Truth]. Study and teaching should cultivate a love of truth and ultimately of Him who said, I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life (Jn. 14:6). In your prayers and support for the works of the IDF, you too take part in this ministry of study and truth at the heart of the Church. -Fr. Allen cf. The Book of Constitutions and Ordinations of the Brothers of the Order of Preachers (Dublin: Dominican Publications, 2012), #77§I. Fr. Marcel Sigrist, O.P. Speakers Tour Fr.

    The Epistle E-news GRACE CHURCH in New York City In This Issue October 27, 2013 How to Suffer Well The Twenty-third Sunday after Pentecost Outreach in WV This week Dear Friends, Coming Soon Some of you who have been around the Quick Links calendar year at Grace Church a few times may be wondering what has happened to the annual GIVE to Grace pledge campaign. Here we are, coming up on Visit our Website the last Sunday of October, and so far neither an usher nor the postal service has handed you More About Us a pledge card. Have you dodged the bullet? Did we simply Did You Miss a Sermon? forget? No, Pledge Sunday is just around the corner. This year it will be on November 10 rather than in October. Every year it seems that we barely lean into fall season when, bang: we start talking about funding for the coming year. The idea with the later date is to give people more time to connect with life at Grace Church before being asked to support it. With a later date for Pledge Sunday, people also might have a slightly better idea of what is possible in 2014. THE SUNDAY That being said, let me begin the talk about making a pledge FORUM @10 AM for 2014 with a personal word. My wife, Stacie, and I are tithers. We give 10% of our income to support the work of the Lord through the church. We have always found tithing to be a source of blessing, not a hardship.

  • This Exiled Life – Part 2 How to Suffer Well
    February 5, 2017 College Park Church This Exiled Life – Part 2 How to Suffer Well 1 Peter 2:21-25 Mark Vroegop 21 For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. 22 He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. 23 When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly. 24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. 25 For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. 1 Peter 2:21– 25 (ESV) “Keep trusting the One who keeps you trusting” If you have been around College Park for the last few years, you have probably heard me use this mantra in a number of different sermons. It is a helpful statement for me, which has been a helpful rallying-cry for my soul when I’m feeling the weight and pressure of life. It did not originate with me. In 2004, and as we were grieving the loss of our daughter, that statement was how John Piper concluded a condolence email that he wrote to us after a family member sent him an email about what we were walking through. That statement was meaningful because it distills in eight words the mindset that believers are to have as they walk through suffering.
