  • Baylor Catholic Spring 2019
    St. Peter Catholic Student Center Baylor Catholic Spring 2019 Serving the Catholic Community at Baylor University, McLennan Community College, & Texas State Technical College SEEK 2019: An Arena of Grace Thousands of students. Arms raised, clapping. Some students calling out. Some in silence. At times everyone singing. It sounds like a Baylor sporting event, but this past January, 17 thousand young people gathered in Indianapolis, not to support their school’s sports teams, but to worship, to listen, to confess, and transform their lives by attending SEEK. SEEK is a biennial conference hosted by the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) in major cities across the United States. This year, 60 Baylor Catholic students joined thousands of other students, priests, consecrated persons, and speakers to learn what they truly yearn for: encountering Christ. A common thread in the talks was the speakers’ gratitude for and recognition of the sincere faith, witness, and commitment that flows from this Catholic community. During the five-day conference, our students attended talks by notable Catholic speakers like Sr. Mirian James (right), Leah Darrow, Jason Evert, and Sarah Swafford. Talks like these are the heart of all the FOCUS conferences and known for their inspiration, but also for having a strong call to action. “During Fr. Mike Schmitz’s talk on the last day, I heard how destructive indifference can be,” said Will Mullen (left), ‘20. “He talked about how if we truly believe in the Catholic faith then we are being selfish in not sharing its truth with those that we love. I needed this to give me the encouragement to share my faith more boldly with my friends.” Kate Ballantyne, ‘21, was particularly struck by a talk on prayer.

Entitled Midnight at 2, it was shot and produced in Indore in May 2017 and is his sixth short film. The story revolves around two strangers, a girl and a boy, sharing a moment of profound silence on the balconies of their homes at 2 am. Everything started for Stanley during a college event where he made promotional videos for his college’s E-Cell (an initiative by National Entrepreneurship Network) and gained instant appreciation for the medium. His first short film, Pedal which found its place among the top 10 national submissions of IIT Indore’s cultural festival, Fluxus, was selected by Pocket Films, an online YouTube channel for short film promotion, and was also nominated at the Sutradhar Film Festival, Indore, and submitted to the Film and Television Institute of India, Pune, for judging. His second short film, The Wall was screened at the SIGNIS Film Festival in Malaysia and Patna. Pocket Films also picked it up.

Twenty two people from fourteen Pacific nations arrived in Melbourne, Australia, for the SIGNIS Pacific Assembly and Training Workshop, February 5-9, 2007. Some came as SIGNIS Pacific delegates and others to participate in the training workshop. For many it was a struggle to come. The cost of travel is high and the planes infrequent and often unreliable. Delegates gave reports on media activity in their country particularly the media apostolate of the church in radio, television, cinema, internet, video and related media.

To interrupt His Yellow Plan The Sun does not allow Caprices of the Atmosphere – And even when the Snow Heaves Balls of Specks, like Vicious Boy Directly in His Eye – Does not so much as turn His Head Busy with Majesty – ‘Tis His to stimulate the Earth And magnetize the Sea - And bind Astronomy, in place, Yet Any passing by Would deem Ourselves – the busier As the Minutest Bee That rides – emits a Thunder – A Bomb – to justify Emily Dickinson (poem 224. c. 1862) Since people are by nature poorly equipped to register any but short-term changes, it is not surprising that we fail to notice slower changes in either climate or the sun. John A. Eddy, The New Solar Physics (1977-78) Foreword By E. N. Parker In this time of global warming we are impelled by both the anticipated dire consequences and by scientific curiosity to investigate the factors that drive the climate. Climate has fluctuated strongly and abruptly in the past, with ice ages and interglacial warming as the long term extremes. Historical research in the last decades has shown short term climatic transients to be a frequent occurrence, often imposing disastrous hardship on the afflicted human populations.

OPUS DEi AND ITS ARRIVAL IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND • A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Religious Studies at Massey University. Marina Middelplaats 2001 Some biographers of saints have in the past been interested only in highlighting extraordinary things in the lives of God's serv­ ants, from even their earliest days in the cradle. They have, unintentionally perhaps, done a disservice to christian truth. They even said of some of them that as babies they did not cry, nor drink their mother's mi lk on Fridays, out of a spirit of pen­ ance. You and I came into this world crying our heads off, and we most assuredly drank our milk in total disregard for fasts and ember days. -Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer, Christ is Passing By, 1974:26.

  • Peacetimes-09202020
    PEACETIMES Prince of Peace Stewardship Newsletter September 2020 Sacramental Celebrations Circumstances may have delayed springtime sacraments, but nothing stopped Prince of Peace 2nd graders from receiving their first communion on June 13th and 14th. In two separate, private Masses, 36 young parishioners partook, for the first time, of the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of our Savior through the holy Eucharist. Congratulations to each and every one of them! Traditionally, RCIA members are confirmed and receive the Eucharist for the first time during the Easter Vigil. However, the suspension of Masses left our church empty during Holy Week and postponed the welcoming of two new members into the Catholic Faith. John Icenogle and Lindsay Lund renewed their baptismal vows and received the sacraments of Confirmation and First Communion at the Saturday evening Mass on June 13th. Serving God and Others Prince of Peace Newsletter Page 2 A Vocation of Service to God and Others Dana Kennedy, daughter of parishioners, Jim and Lisa Kennedy, has spent the last 18 years serving God and His church, both in the United States and abroad. Born and raised in Kearney, Dana was baptized as an infant in the Lutheran Church. Jim and Lisa were very active in their church, volunteering in its youth ministry programs. When Dana was 10, her mom started having long, theological conversations with a Catholic coworker leading her to read and learn more about Catholicism. Lisa ultimately decided to convert. Dana recalls that despite the controversy and unrest her this caused within their church and extended family, she could see how happy the Catholic faith made her mother.

  • Thy Kingdom Come! Central Commission for the Review of The
    Thy Kingdom Come! Central Commission for the Review of the Statutes of Regnum Christi Theme for Study and Reflection Number 5 Charism and History of Regnum Christi Goal To prepare ourselves for the revision of the statutes of the Regnum Christi Movement for the first and second degrees, we need to take into account the charism of Regnum Christi, since the statutes should serve precisely to guard and promote that charism. We are seeking to understand what is the charism of a movement and how it is lived, so that then we can go on to remember the fundamental characteristics of our own, remembering the spiritual experience we share and its history, as well as the approval and other indications of the authority of the Church. Outline A. The charism of a spiritual family: Charisms are special graces that the Holy Spirit grants to faithful Christians for the good of the Church and of its mission in the world. By spiritual family, we mean a group of faithful Christians that, sharing a charism, are united by spiritual affinity and friendship in Christ. The charism of a spiritual family is collective and dynamic and generates a spiritual heritage. We pay special attention to the case of the founder of Regnum Christi. B. What spiritual experience helps us to form Regnum Christi? The discovery of the personal love of Christ, who calls us to share his mission, generates in us the desire to respond to him by doing our best to be authentic Christians and to make an active effort to introduce people to him so they will be transformed into his disciples.

    OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply) OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply) OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply). Opus Dei is an institution of the Catholic Church whose mission is to put into practice the doctrine of the universal call to holiness and to promote among people of all social classes the sanctification of professional work in the circumstances of ordinary life. Its legal status is that of a personal prelature, the Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei or simply Opus Dei. In other words, it is a universal hierarchical institution of the prelature type, as provided for in the Second Vatican Council, established to undertake special pastoral tasks and endowed with its own statutes. Through the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross, an association of clerics intrinsically linked to the prelature, it helps diocesan priests live the doctrine of the universal call to holiness in the exercise of their holy ministry.
