Here's an outline, followed by a brief description of the most common Eastern liturgy. Musical Musings: Miscellaneous. Rites of the Catholic Church by Gary D. Western Catholic Church Roman Latin Rite By far the most prevalent rite in the Catholic Church; the liturgy derives Rites of the Catholic Church Roman practices and the use of Latin as the official language since the 3rd century. Two possible origins of this rite co-exist: 1. Rites of Religious Orders Generally the Roman Rite, with calendar Rites of the Catholic Church and minor discrepancies, particularly regarding the Divine Office. Benedictine ["Monastic Rite"] Carmelite Carthusian Cistercian Dominican Franciscan ["Romano-Seraphicum Usage"] Praemonstratensian Norbertine It should be noted that, although not a separate "rite," there are parishes in the United States that follow a distinct Catholic liturgy derived from Anglican traditions. Anglican Use communities are parishes that have come over to Catholicism from an Episcopal Anglican background. These have been increasing in number, particularly with the "progressive" changes occurring within the Episcopal Church. Back to Miscellaneous Index. Part 2: Eastern Rites.

BRIEF INTRO TO THE RITES OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH The Eastern Churches, each of which has its own associated rite, liturgical language, customs, spirituality, region, patriarch, episcopacy, and particular name. Each of these Catholic Rites of the Catholic Church has its Rites of the Catholic Church history, legal tradition, and culture. See below for a relatively complete list; cf. They preserve some of the centuries-old liturgical, devotional, and theological traditions of the various Eastern Christian Churches they were once associated with. Although the Churches they formerly were associated with are not all in communion with one another, the Eastern Catholic Churches are in communion with each other and with the Latin or Western Church. However, they vary in theological emphasis, forms of liturgical worship and popular piety, canonical discipline and terminology. They all recognize the central role of the Bishop of Rome within the College of Bishops and his infallibility when speaking ex cathedra. These three patriarchates were recognized as having a supreme place among the bishops by the Council of Nicea in Keep in mind that the patriarchs are considered equal in rank even though they may have a precedence of honor. Moreover, just to underscore an important point, even though the bishop of Rome is a patriarch, as pope he has supreme authority and governance over the whole Church. The cardinal patriarchs retain their patriarchal sees and are not assigned any suburbicarian see. The mutual excommunications in AD were issued by the Pope, Patriarch of Rome, and the Patriarch of Constantinople, who felt that he should have primacy because Constantinople was the capital of the Roman Empire. The Roman rite forms the largest part of the Catholic Church. Its beginning dates to the 7th century, and is localized in the Iberian Peninsula the Roman Hispania. Mozarab is the term for the Christian population living under Muslim rulers in Al-Andalus. For in those churches, which are distinguished by their venerable antiquity, there is clearly evident the tradition which has come from the Apostles through the Fathers and which is part of the Rites of the Catholic Church revealed, undivided heritage of the Universal Church' No. James of Jerusalem with the later reforms of St. Basil and St. John Chrysostom. These rites employ the Liturgy of St. This parent rite comprises many rites, which are themselves highly ethnic-oriented. The Melkites reunited with Rome during the Crusades, but due to impediments caused by the Muslim occupations, more officially reunited in the early s. I haven't found a good source for information on the Serbian rite--just the assertion that it exists Rites of the Catholic Church is part of the Byzantine rite. Mark is traditionally considered the first bishop of Alexandria. Their present liturgy contains elements of the Byzantine Rite of St. Basil and the liturgies of Sts. Mark, Cyril, and Gregory Nazianzen. Although it uses a different language, this rite is technically called the Greek Liturgy of St. Wikipedia, "Byzantine Rite: Divine Liturgy. Both the Eastern rites and the early history of the Latin rites show a history of flexibility and adaptation to local languages and cultures. Latin was the language of the people. The Greek liturgy and scriptures were translated into Latin, Rites of the Catholic Church the form of the liturgy was modified to suit Latin taste, sometimes epitomized as "noble simplicity. Some of the more notable languages used in the Eastern rites of the Church. These areas probably never had Latin as a liturgical language:. The use of the vernacular in liturgy, therefore, is a very ancient tradition of the Church. In the West, which was conditioned to the use of Latin as the universal language of the its liturgical tradition, the adoption of vernacular languages seems contrary to tradition because of the fourteen or fifteen centuries during which Latin was the predominant liturgical language.

CNP Articles - Rites of the Catholic Church A particular church Latin : ecclesia particularis is an ecclesiastical community of faithful headed by a bishop or equivalentas defined by Catholic canon law and ecclesiology. A liturgical rite depends on the particular church the bishop or equivalent belongs to. Thus "particular Rites of the Catholic Church refers to an institution, and "liturgical rite" to its practices. Philosophy, theology, and fundamental Rites of the Catholic Church of canon law. Juridic and physical persons. Associations of the faithful. Institute of consecrated life. Society of apostolic life. In Catholic ecclesiologya church is an assembly of the faithfulhierarchically ordered, both in the entire world the Catholic Churchor in a certain territory a particular church. To be a sacrament a sign of the Mystical Body Rites of the Catholic Church Christ in the world, a church must have both a head and members Col. Thus, the church is fully present sacramentally by way of a sign wherever there is a sign of Christ the head, a bishop and those who assist him, and a sign of Christ's body, Christian faithful. The word "church" is applied to the Catholic Church as a whole, which is seen as a single church: the multitude of peoples and cultures within the church, and the great diversity of gifts, offices, conditions and ways of life of its members, are not opposed to the church's unity. Within the Catholic Church there are local particular churches, of which dioceses are the most familiar form. Other forms include territorial abbaciesapostolic vicariates and apostolic prefectures. The Code of Canon Law states: "Particular Churches, in which and from which the one and only Catholic Church exists, are principally dioceses. Unless the contrary is clear, the following are equivalent to a diocese: a territorial prelature, a territorial abbacy, a vicariate apostolic, a prefecture apostolic and a permanently established apostolic administration. Within Rites of the Catholic Church Catholic Church there are also aggregations of local particular churches that share a specific liturgical, theological, spiritual, and canonical heritage, distinguished from other heritages on the basis of cultural and historical circumstances. These are known as autonomous " sui iuris " churches. The Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches defines such a church as follows: "A group of Christ's faithful hierarchically Rites of the Catholic Church in accordance with law and given express or tacit recognition by the supreme authority of the Church is in this Code called an autonomous Church. Although each of them has its own specific heritage, they are all in full communion with the Pope in Rome. Unlike "families" or "federations" of churches formed through the grant of mutual recognition by distinct ecclesial bodies, [17] the Catholic Church considers itself a single church " full communion"one Body" composed of a multitude of particular churches, each of which, as stated, is an embodiment of the fullness of the one Catholic Church. For the particular churches within the Catholic Church, whether autonomous ritual churches e. Theologically, each is considered to be the embodiment in a particular place or for a particular community of the one, whole Catholic Church. There are 24 autonomous churches: one Latin Church and twenty-three Eastern Catholic Churchesa distinction by now more historical than geographical. The term sui iuris means, literally, "of its own law", or Rites of the Catholic Church. Although all of the particular churches espouse the same beliefs and faith, their distinction lies in their varied expression of that faith through their traditions, disciplines, and canon law. All are in communion with the Holy See. For this kind of particular church, the Code of Canon Law uses the unambiguous phrase "autonomous ritual Church" Latin: Ecclesia ritualis sui iuris. The Code of Canons of the Eastern Churcheswhich is concerned principally with what the Second Vatican Council called "particular Churches or rites", shortened Rites of the Catholic Church to "autonomous Church" Latin: Ecclesia sui iuris.

  • Pope Nicholas II's 1059 Decree
    Pope Nicholas’s speech about simony and papal election, 1059 Draft translation by Charles West, September 2019 Source: MGH Concilia VIII, pp. 382-3 (JL 4431a) The Lord Pope Nicholas, presiding over the synod in the Constantinian basilica, said: “We decree that there should be no mercy for the simoniacs to protect their indignity, and we condemn them according to the sanctions of the canons and the decrees of the holy fathers, and we declare with apostolic authority that they should be deposed. About those who were ordained by simoniacs not for money but freely, since this question has now been debated for a very long time, we remove every knot of doubt, so that we permit no one henceforth to hesitate over this decree. Since the poisonous calamity of the simoniac heresy has until now grown up to such an extent that hardly any church can be found that is not corrupted in some part by this disease, we permit those who have been freely ordained already by simoniacs to remain in their orders, according not to the censure of justice but to the perspective of mercy, unless perhaps some fault from their life stands against them according to the canons. There is such a multitude of these people that since we are not able to enforce the rigour of canonical vigour upon them, it is necessary that we incline our spirit for the moment to the zeal of pious condescension. We do this on condition, however, that by the authority of the Apostles Peter and Paul we absolutely forbid that any of our successors should ever take this permission of ours as a rule for themselves or anyone else, since the authority of the ancient fathers did not promulgate this by command or concession, but the great necessity of the time extorted it from us by permission.

  • The Penalty of a Life of Prayer and Penance According to Sacramentorum Sanctitatis Tutela and the Essential Norms
    Biuletyn Stowarzyszenia Absolwentów i Przyjaciół Wydziału Prawa Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego t. XIV, 16 (1) 2019, s. 199-213 https://doi.org/10.32084/sawp.2019.14.1-13 Grzegorz Podwysocki THE PENALTY OF A LIFE OF PRAYER AND PENANCE ACCORDING TO SACRAMENTORUM SANCTITATIS TUTELA AND THE ESSENTIAL NORMS In dealing with offending members of the clergy, ecclesiastical authorities are often faced with a dilemma: whether to completely sever the ties with the offending cleric and therefore avoid any further civil liability for his actions or whether according to the principles of Christian mercy and forgiveness, to seek a way of satisfying both. When the recent clerical sex abuse of minors by members of the clergy of unprecedented proportions erupted in 2002, the Church found itself challenged to cope with the aftermath. 1. The context of the modern understanding of the penalty Within the broader context of the Catholic Church in the United States, the American bishops were learning of the unfortunate and heinous sexual abuse of minors by members of the clergy. Their early responses to the crisis have been fairly well documented in the Bishops’ Committee Report, “Brief History: Handling Child Sexual Abuse Claims”1. The 1917 Code of Canon Law2, promulgated by Pope Benedict XV, contained a number of canonical delicts that were reserved to the competence of the Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office (can. 1555).

  • Ecumenical Ecclesiology in Its New Contexts: Considering the Transformed Relationship Between Roman Catholic Ecclesiology and Ecumenism
    religions Article Ecumenical Ecclesiology in its New Contexts: Considering the Transformed Relationship between Roman Catholic Ecclesiology and Ecumenism Kristin Colberg Department of Theology, College of Saint Benedict, St. John’s School of Theology & Seminary, Collegeville, MN 56321-2000, USA; [email protected] Received: 20 August 2018; Accepted: 25 September 2018; Published: 26 September 2018 Abstract: The quest for Christian unity is entering a new phase amidst the movement’s many voices, perspectives and tensions. Christians are witnessing the advent of an emerging ecumenical paradigm, which, because it is not fully realized, is still realizing its full definition. The paradigm operates in a global context rather than a Eurocentric one, and even as it is more global, it is simultaneously more local. It cultivates shared praxis while being less concerned with the comparison of dogmas. Ecclesiology is also entering a new paradigm which shares many features with its ecumenical counterpart, particularly its global perspective and interest in shared praxis ahead of dogmatic questions. Even though ecumenism and ecclesiology share common trajectories, their journeys are unfolding in largely parallel rather than cooperative and mutually-enriching ways. This raises the question: What opportunities might arise from examining the shifts in ecumenism and ecclesiology together? This article examines how new methodological and practical developments in these two fields can form and inform one another. It studies the shift to synodality in the Catholic Church and the turn towards discernment in the ecumenical sphere as manifestations of similar theological commitments and a common interest in cultivating participatory processes. The seismic changes reshaping the religious landscape are transforming the relationship between ecumenism and ecclesiology; yet a strong connection between them endures and illumines paths forward for the church in the third millennium.

Kenotic Ecclesiology: Context, Orientations, Secularity THOMAS HUGHSON, S.J. Four communicative disjunctions are ways in which, “the Catholic Church today is … out of phase with the world it wants to speak to.”1 Unless and until the influence of Pope Francis permeates the Church at all levels and in all contexts his charismatic leadership cannot be said to have changed this condition altogether. He surely has set a direction away from the clerical culture among bishops that abetted sweeping clergy abuse of minors under a rug of silent re-assignments. Even the Church now represented in the deeds and words of Francis cannot by-pass coming to grips with the disjunctions and with abuse. So George McLean’s theological response to the disjunctions and crisis of abuse remains a valid, long-term project. He advises nothing less than, “… rethinking the entire nature of the Church and its public presence in quite different, indeed kenotic, terms.” 2 That is a tall theological order. 3 What does a theological project of that scope involve? Outlining some directions along which to think about a kenotic theology of the Church draws on more than theological reflection and research.

  • Prisons and Punishments in Late Medieval London
    Prisons and Punishments in Late Medieval London Christine Winter Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London Royal Holloway, University of London, 2012 2 Declaration I, Christine Winter, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 3 Abstract In the history of crime and punishment the prisons of medieval London have generally been overlooked. This may have been because none of the prison records have survived for this period, yet there is enough information in civic and royal documents, and through archaeological evidence, to allow a reassessment of London’s prisons in the later middle ages. This thesis begins with an analysis of the purpose of imprisonment, which was not merely custodial and was undoubtedly punitive in the medieval period. Having established that incarceration was employed for a variety of purposes the physicality of prison buildings and the conditions in which prisoners were kept are considered. This research suggests that the periodic complaints that London’s medieval prisons, particularly Newgate, were ‘foul’ with ‘noxious air’ were the result of external, rather than internal, factors. Using both civic and royal sources the management of prisons and the abuses inflicted by some keepers have been analysed. This has revealed that there were very few differences in the way civic and royal prisons were administered; however, there were distinct advantages to being either the keeper or a prisoner of the Fleet prison. Because incarceration was not the only penalty available in the enforcement of law and order, this thesis also considers the offences that constituted a misdemeanour and the various punishments employed by the authorities.

This includes a review of the current rite of Anointing of the Sick through is development. The Catholic diaconate is examined in historical context with a special focus on the revised diaconate after 1967. Through these investigations it is apparent that there is cause for dialog within the Church considering current pastoral realities in the United States. The paper concludes that deacons should have the faculty to anoint the sick as ordinary ministers when it is celebrated as a separate liturgical rite.
