Lo ofrecemos, traducido al español, tal como ha sido facilitado en la versión italiana. El Santo Padre lo redactó a mano y en polaco: el testamento del 6.3.1979 (y los sucesivos añadidos) Totus Tuus ego sum En el Nombre de la Santísima Trinidad. Amén. Estad vigilantes, porque no sabéis qué día vendrá vuestro Señor (cf. Mt 24, 42) – es- tas palabras me recuerdan la última llamada que llegará en el momento que quiera el Se- ñor. Deseo seguirLe y deseo que todo lo que forma parte de mi vida terrena me prepare a este momento. No sé cuándo llegará, pero como en todo, también pongo este momen- to en las manos de la Madre de Mi Maes- tro: Totus Tuus. En las mismas manos ma- ternales dejo todo y a todos aquellos con quienes me ha unido mi vida y mi vocación. En estas Manos dejo sobre todo a la Iglesia, y también a mi Nación y a toda la humani- dad. Doy las gracias a todos. A todos pido perdón. Ruego también la oración para que la Misericordia de Dios se muestre más gran- de que mi debilidad e indignidad. Durante los ejercicios espirituales he re- leído el testamento del Santo Padre Pablo VI. Esta lectura me ha impulsado a escribir el presente testamento. No dejo tras de mí propiedad alguna de la que sea necesario disponer. En cuanto a las cosas de uso cotidiano de las que me servía, ruego que sean distribuidas como parezca oportuno.

  • How the New Catechism Came About

    How the New Catechism Came About

    How the New Catechism Came About By Monsignor Michael J. Wrenn and Kenneth D. Whitehead I The history of the genesis and development of the Catechism of the Catholic of the Catholic Church has already been told more than once. Among the available accounts explaining it there is even included an especially illuminating one coauthored by the two individuals most directly responsible for producing the Catechism, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, who headed the Commission for the Catechism for the Universal Church, a twelve-member body of cardinals and bishops appointed to oversee the whole project; and then auxiliary Bishop Christoph Schönborn of Vienna (now archbishop of the same see), who had been a distinguished Dominican theologian at the University of Fribourg before being named a bishop and who served as overall editor of the Catechism, while assigned to the Vatican Secretariat created to manage the project. Together, Cardinal Ratzinger and Archbishop Schönborn have provided a short but most instructive account of how the Catechism was put together, what it contains, how it is structured. what the principles underlying it are, what its authority is, and how it can and should be used. This account by Ratzinger and Schönborn has been published in English translation in the United States under the title Introduction to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. This slim volume, published in a format uniform with the Catechism itself, should be read along with the latter by anybody interested in studying the Catechism in depth. How this remarkable work came to be what Pope John Paul II has called a gift to the Church is a truly inspiring story of the faith in our times.

In the last two years, Dr. Plinio Xavier had several conversations with you about this study of yours.

    International Marian Association Letter to Cardinal Mueller

    International Marian Association Letter to Cardinal Mueller 31 May 2017 Eminence, Gerhard Cardinal Müller Prefect, Congregation for the Doctrine on Faith Piazza del S. Uffizio, 11 00193 Roma, Italy Your Eminence: We, Executive Members of the International Marian Association, which consti- tutes over 100 theologians, cardinals, bishops, clergy, religious and lay leaders from 5 continents, wish to, first of all, thank you for the many excellent and courageous articulations and defenses of our holy Catholic Faith, as contained in your recently released, The Cardinal Müller Report. At the same time, we are obliged to express to you our grave concern regarding your comment from the text when you state: “(for example, the Church … does not call her [Mary] “co-redeemer,” because the only Redeemer is Christ, and she herself has been redeemed sublimiore modo, as Lumen Gentium [n. 53] says, and serves this redemption wrought exclusively by Christ… (p. 133). You unfortunately refer to this term as an example of false exaggeration: “falsely exaggerating per excessum, attributing to the Virgin what is not attributable to her” (Ibid.). Your Eminence, in making this statement, albeit as a private theologian since a public interview carries no authoritative or magisterial status, you have publicly stated: 1) a theologically and historically erroneous position, since the Church undeni- ably has and does call Mary a co-redeemer; and 2) a position which, in itself, materially dissents from the repeated and authoritative teachings of the Papal Magisterium, the historical teachings from your own Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith (Holy Office)and other Vatican Congregations; the pre- and post-conciliar teachings of the Magisterium as expressed through numerous cardinals, bishops and national episcopal conferences; teachings of the broader Church, inclusive of multiple can- onized saints and blessed who all do, in fact, assent to and theologically expand upon the authentic Magisterial teachings of the Church concerning Mary as a co- redeemer.
