  • Bispeordinasjon Av B. Erik Varden 3. Oktober 2020
    ORDINASJON AV MGR. ERIK VARDEN TIL BISKOP-PRELAT AV TRONDHEIM Nidarosdomen Lørdag 3. oktober 2020 kl 11.00 TRONDHEIM STIFT DEN KATOLSKE KIRKE I MIDT-NORGE Katolsk bispeordinasjon Den katolske bispeordinasjon må forstås i lys av katolsk kirkesyn og selvforståelse. Kristus opprettet sin Kirke da han var på jorden. Denne kalles den katolske (bokstavelig talt, «universelle») Kirke og er i utgangspunktet en usynlig størrelse. Men den blir synlig gjennom verdens mange lokal- kirker, kalt «bispedømmer». Den katolske kirke består ifølge 2. Vatikan- konsil i og av sine lokalkirker. I dag har verden mellom fire og fem tusen slike. Trondheim stift er en egenartet lokalkirke, kalt «territorialprelatur». I realiteten er det kun historiske og terminologiske forhold, men ingen teologiske, som skiller et territorialprelatur fra et vanlig bispedømme. Hver lokalkirke har en overhyrde, og han er normalt biskop. I et territorialprelatur betegnes han offisielt som «biskop-prelat». Hans opp- gave er å være lokalkirkens øverste hyrde, lærer og prest, og han ivaretar den prinsipielle kontakt med de andre lokalkirker og deres overhyrder, og da spesielt med bispedømmet Roma og dets biskop, paven. Alle biskoper som befinner seg i forpliktende fellesskap med biskopen av Roma danner et kollegium («bispekollegiet») med biskopen av Roma som overhode. Opptagelsen i dette kollegium skjer ved bispe- ordinasjonen. Tilhørigheten til dette kollegium danner basis for bispe- tjenesten i eget bispedømme og innebærer for biskopene et kollektivt overoppsyn og pastoralt ansvar for verdenskirken. Biskopens oppdrag hviler på to søyler, en «jurisdiksjonell» og en «sakramental». Den jurisdiksjonelle søyle består i at biskopen lever og utfører sin tjeneste i «hierarkisk fellesskap» med de øvrige biskoper, med biskopen av Roma – apostelen Peters etterfølger – i spissen.

November is traditionally a time to pray especially for all the faithful who have died. The month begins with the great Feast of All Saints, followed immediately by “All Souls”, when the Mass and all the Liturgy of the day is offered as a prayer to God for all who have gone before us “marked with the sign of faith”. The transition from the Liturgy of All Saints to the Liturgy of All Souls is dramatic: festive celebration and white vestments on All Saints, black vestments and the sombre, even mournful character of the Liturgy of All Souls. This is not, I think, meant primarily to express a change of mood, though of course our sentiments will be affected. If the liturgy were seeking to express our feelings, I think we would want to celebrate the two days in reverse: we would first contemplate the darkness of death, then raise our spirits by celebrating our glorious new life in Christ.

  • BLESSED MARIA GABRIELLA SAGHEDDU: a Life for Unity and Her Ecumenical Heritage
    BLESSED MARIA GABRIELLA SAGHEDDU: A Life for Unity and her Ecumenical Heritage 1- “In the simplicity of my heart I gladly offer you everything, O Lord.” Maria Sagheddu was born in Dorgali, Sardinia on March 17, 1914. She bore personally the traits characteristic of her land: she was obstinate, impetuous, rebellious and strong willed. To those who after her death sought testimony on her life, her family and acquaintances described her as an indomitable child little inclined towards religious practices. But one perceived in Maria a fundamental holiness: at school she displayed an avidity for learning and knowledge. Intelligent, generous and cheerful, she was absolutely free of malice. At the age of seven Maria had a dream where she saw herself in the Church in Dorgali before the picture of the Holy Family, which came to life. Jesus stretched out his arms to her, while Mary watched and smiled. Maria’s reaction was to flee the church crying, “No! I am a sinner.”1 This realism towards herself, clear and without half-measures, marked an adherence to the truth that would become a protecting shield. From her youth to her death, Maria’s striking quality was an extraneousness to falsehood in all its aspects, including ambiguity, hypocrisy, and self- justification. In 1932 came the death of her sixteen year old younger sister Giovanna Antonia, to whom she was deeply attached. From biographical information we know that a change occurred in the life of Maria, that this was a turning point. Towards the age of eighteen she changed decisively and stood out for her spirit of prayer.

  • Bérulle's Marian Way to Jesus
    Ecce Mater Tua 110 Bérulle’s Marian Way to Jesus: The Christocentric Praxis of Cardinal Pierre de Bérulle’s Marian États Revealed Through the Lens of Self-Gift RICK PERRY, PH.D. CAND. ​ ​ ​ ​ Katholieke​ ​ Universiteit​ Leuven,​ Belgium I make to the Most Holy Virgin a whole, absolute and irrevocable oblation of all that I am by the mercy of God in being and in the order of nature and grace, of all that depends on it, of all natural, indifferent and good actions, which I will operate forever, referring everything, that is to say, everything that is in me and everything I can refer to the homage and honor of the Most Holy Virgin, which I take and now regard as the object to which, after her Son, and under her Son, I relate my soul and my life, both interior and exterior, and generally everything that is mine.280 ​ Pierre de Bérulle (Vow of Servitude to Mary) ​ ​ The above excerpt is from Pierre de Bérulle’s vow of servitude to Mary that he propagated, along with a vow to Jesus, in France roughly from 1604, to the end of his life in 1629. This work is an examination of the anthropology and spirituality that surrounds these vows. The hope of the following examination is to draw out the Christoncentricity of Bérulle’s Marian devotion. The vows of servitude that he propagated and guided others through centralize the inseperability of his Christological vision and Marian piety. Bérulle’s theology and spirituality were highlighted by emphases on the creaturely existence of humanity, mystically referred to as nothingness (néant), the human person’s need to recognize their ​ ​ ultimate dependency on God, and human fulfillement found in the interior dispositions or states (états) of the Incarnation.
