  • St. Gallen, 12. Srpna 2014 Excelence, Situace Křesťanů a Jiných
    St. Gallen, 12. srpna 2014 Excelence, situace křesťanů a jiných náboženských menšin v Iráku je zcela nepřijatelná. Naléhavá potřeba bránit a chránit lidská práva těchto lidí a přežití jejich komunit je evidentní. Mezinárodní společenství je povolané k tomu, aby ukončilo tuto tragédii všemi dostupnými legitimními prostředky. My, evropští biskupové, vyjadřujeme také pocity našich věřících a žádáme Radu bezpečnosti, aby učinila rozhodnutí, která ukončí tyto hrozné skutky, při nichž tisíce lidí umírají nebo jsou zabíjeny či nuceny opustit vlastní domovy z důvodu náboženské příslušnosti. Generální sekretář OSN a velká část světového veřejného mínění již jasně odsoudili to, co se odehrává v severním Iráku. Je bezpodmínečně nutné přijmout konkrétní humanitární opatření a odpovědět tak na zoufalou situaci dětí, žen, starých lidí a mnoha dalších osob, které ztratily všechno, aby utekly před smrtí, a nyní se nachází v nebezpečí úmrtí hlady a žízní. V posledních letech se mnoho pokročilo v porozumění zodpovědnosti mezinárodního společenství v oblasti ochrany lidských práv, zejména práva na život nevinných lidí a práva na bezpečí. Doufáme, že i v tomto případě bude mezinárodní společenství schopné odpovědět rychlou pomocí mnoha uprchlíkům a zajistit jim možnost bezpečně se vrátit do svých měst a domů. Tragédie, k níž dochází na severu Iráku, nejen ohrožuje multikulturní soužití, jež je nedílnou součástí našeho globalizovaného světa. Představuje také riziko pro křesťany v zemi, kde žijí od samých počátků křesťanství a kde je jejich přítomnost oceňovaná a potřebná pro mír na místní i světové úrovni. S touto výzvou se připojujeme k Svatému otci, papeži Františkovi, který v posledních dnech bez přestání vyzýval mezinárodní společenství, aby se mobilizovalo a poskytlo konkrétní pomoc lidem v nebezpečí, a aby učinilo vše pro zastavení tohoto pekelného kruhu násilí.

  • Newsletter 04 March 2015
    Newsletter 04 March 2015 Dear Parents and Caregivers Kia ora, Talofa lava, Malo e lelei, Kia orana, Bula vinaka, Warmest Greetings to you all. Soane Patita Paini Mafi, bishop of Tonga, is elevated to the rank of Cardinal by Pope Francis during a consistory, on February 14, 2015 at St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican. Archbishop John Dew from Wellington was also elevated to the same rank and is now Cardinal for New Zealand. Cardinal Mafi is the youngest church leader appointed to the role at the age of 53. At 66 years of age, Cardinal Dew, along with Cardinal Mafi will both likely be involved in voting for the next Pope, an honour only bestowed on Members of the College of Cardinals who are under the age of 80. On hearing the news of the announcement, Archbishop John said: "This news is recognition of the Catholic Church in Aotearoa New Zealand, and the contribution it makes to the global Catholic family. I'm delighted to hear that Bishop Soane Mafi of Tonga has also been named in the list, together it is not only great news for New Zealand and Tonga but for the Oceania region. We were so excited that Room 4, teacher Mrs Kuilei Pulotu was able to join a large group from New Zealand and Tonga to support Cardinal Mafi on a pilgrimage to Rome to witness this special event. We will certainly remember both men in our prayers as they begin this new journey in their spiritual lives. Catholic Diocese Education Dedication Mass. At the recent mass celebrated by Bishop Pat, attended by most teachers from Catholic schools in Auckland Mrs Williams, Mrs Tui and myself were awarded Certificates for attaining Leadership Level Accreditation with Endorsement as Religious Education teachers.

    N. 0747 Venerdì 02.10.2015 Briefing per fornire informazioni su tema e metodo della XIV Assemblea Generale Ordinaria del Sinodo dei Vescovi (Vaticano, 4 - 25 ottobre 2015) Alle ore 11.30 di questa mattina, nell’Aula Giovanni Paolo II della Sala Stampa della Santa Sede, il Cardinale Lorenzo Baldisseri, Segretario Generale del Sinodo dei Vescovi, tiene un Briefing per fornire informazioni su tema e metodo della XIV Assemblea Generale Ordinaria del Sinodo dei Vescovi che si apre domenica prossima 4 ottobre e i cui lavori proseguiranno fino al 25 su: “La vocazione e la missione della famiglia nella Chiesa e nel mondo contemporaneo”. Riportiamo di seguito l’intervento del Card. Lorenzo Baldisseri: Intervento del Card. Lorenzo Baldisseri Introduzione Domani sera, in Piazza San Pietro, alla presenza del Santo Padre, si celebrerà una Veglia di preghiera in preparazione all’Assemblea Generale Ordinaria del Sinodo, cui saranno presenti i Padri sinodali, i partecipanti al Sinodo e tutti i fedeli del mondo, su iniziativa della Conferenza Episcopale Italiana, che ha invitato le famiglie, i movimenti e le associazioni ecclesiali. Al calar della sera risplenderà la bellezza della famiglia attraverso le fiaccole accese. La fiduciosa invocazione dello Spirito Santo da parte del Popolo di Dio è il preludio ai lavori sinodali; ricordiamo infatti l’importante tono dato alla scorsa Assemblea Generale Straordinaria da parte del Santo Padre, con la sua incisiva omelia della Veglia. Con la concelebrazione eucaristica di domenica mattina, presieduta dal Santo Padre, si aprirà l’Assemblea Generale Ordinaria del Sinodo sul tema “La vocazione e la missione della famiglia nella Chiesa e nel mondo contemporaneo”, che consentirà a tutti i fedeli del mondo di unirsi al cammino comune dei Pastori cum Petro et sub Petro.

  • Catholicism in Sweden Embodying the Church of Mission
    Catholicism in Sweden Embodying the Church of Mission RYSZARD BOBROWICZ Ryszard Bobrowicz is a doctoral student in practical theology at Lund University. [email protected] Introduction: Catholic Revival within the Swedish Religious Landscape The Swedish religious landscape is full of contradictions . On the one hand, Sweden is described as one of the most secularized countries in the world . And, according to some measures, it is – religious participation is at an all-time low and only about 19 % of the population see themselves as reli- gious,1 religious schools are frowned upon,2 religion itself is rarely discussed and is established as a category of otherness, often treated as odd and out- dated,3 and, at least in principle, public expressions of religiosity remain objectionable . On the other hand, Sweden, similarly to neighbouring Denmark and Norway, falls under the so-called “Scandinavian paradox” 4. Although the Swedish state parted ways with the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Sweden 1 . Kancho Stoychev, Voice of the People 2015, Zurich 2015, 135 . 2 .
