  • Remembering Pope Saint John Paul II's Visit to Denver for World Youth
    Remembering Pope Saint John Paul II’s visit to Denver for World Youth Day 1993 “I came that they might have life, and have it to the full.” –John 10: 10 Theme for World Youth Day, Denver 1993 Photo: Helen H. Richardson/ Denver Post “Imagine Woodstock with all of the good and none of the bad… It was an event of more than 100,000 young people that changed society, but there was no marijuana; no beer bottles on the ground.” –Sister Mary Ann Walsh, RSM, communications director for World Youth Day Denver ——- Looking back to 1993: The third visit of Pope Saint John Paul II to the United States (not counting two flight layovers in Alaska) was held in Denver for the 1993 World Youth Day (August 10-15, 1993). The Archdiocese of Denver, under the leadership of then Archbishop J. Francis Stafford, hosted this historic event. This marked the eighth WYD, which was started by Pope John Paul II in 1986 in Rome. Denver’s event was the first World Youth Day to be held in North America, as well as in an English-speaking nation. Pope John Paul II initiated plans for World Youth Day in 1984, with the first celebration in 1986. The Denver event was the eighth celebration and the first to become an international media sensation. Photo: Denver Catholic Register The Holy Father arrived in the Mile High City on August 12 following the first-ever papal visit to the island nation of Jamaica (August 9-11), and a brief stop in Mexico. He arrived by helicopter.

  • Talk: CHOSEN for a PURPOSE “You Have Not Chosen Me; I Have Chosen You
    Talk: CHOSEN FOR A PURPOSE “You have not chosen me; I have chosen you. Go and bear fruit that will last.” John 15:16 The Life of St. Francis Born to a wealthy lifestyle, son of a merchant in Assisi, Italy Had the attention of those around him Didn’t care to join the business of his father Desired to be a soldier Dream led him to return from battle, back to Assisi Was not satisfied with his status, honor and wealth Spent time in prayer and solitude, seeking an answer to his call Encounter with a leper, at first was disgusted but decided to move beyond this feeling to being moved by this man and his heart was captured Prayed in front of a crucifix in the church, San Damiano, where Christ spoke to Francis. "Go, Francis, and repair (rebuild) my house, which as you see is falling into ruin.” Francis’ response, “Yes!” said Francis. “This is what I want, this is what I long for with all my heart.” The decision was not an easy one. He was ridiculed by the towns’ people, beaten, locked up and rejected by his father. He ultimately stripped naked to reject his earthly life (sonship) to receive his heavenly life (an adopted son of the Heavenly Father). He went to Rome to petition to the Pope to start an order Many became attracted to St. Francis and joined his order I tell you this story because I know we can learn something from St. Francis for ourselves and for the sake of the young people we will be witnessing to this year.

  • March 2016 Knights of Columbus Washington State Council Bulletin
    March 2016 Knights of Columbus Washington State Council Bulletin Ed Parazoo State Deputy Washington State Council Cell Phone (509) 680-3627 [email protected] KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS “BE MEN OF ACTION” Message from State Deputy Spring into March My Brothers All, Is your Council ready for the State Convention that is fast approaching? Have you paid your Supreme Per Capita? Have you paid your State Per Capita? Have you submitted your Certificate of Election of Council delegates to the convention? Have you begun working on your Council recap of activities to be forwarded to your District Deputy by April 1? It is disheartening to know that some Councils, even 8 months into this fraternal year, still haven't submitted their "Report of Officers Chosen for the Year (185)" and/or their "Service Program Personnel Report (365)"!! Wow, don't you care? What is the problem that these small reports can't get completed? How can we assist? District Deputies......why can't you sit down with them and get these completed? There is no excuse for these not being submitted. PLEASE get them done! As State Deputy, I see most requests and reports that get filed.....and I am very disappointed to see that some Councils try to suspend members that are ill or in nursing homes! Some Councils try to suspend Priests!! Priests are Honorary Life members and don't pay dues......how/why would you suspend one? Where has our Fraternity gone? It isn't only about the bottom line! If the Council truly can't afford to waive a member's dues.......pass the hat! I am sure if your membership knew the situation that some of our brothers are in.....his dues will get paid.

  • Living As Missionary Disciples: Walk the Talk by Dr
    Living as Missionary Disciples: Walk the Talk By Dr. Ansel Augustine Does this Really Matter? It matters more than you know. Today’s youth are bombarded by all kinds of information. Whether it comes from television, radio, internet, cellphones, or billboards, our youth take in more “messages” than we did when we were their age. In fact, scientists tell us that the average young person’s brain is programmed to receive information differently than adults of today; thus widening the “generation gap.” Pastors, youth ministers, catechetical leaders, campus ministers, and any other person trying to engage youth find it more difficult to link youth with their faith. Is this impossible? Not at all, but we are called to meet our people where they are at, just as Jesus and the early disciples did, so that we can teach our young people to be better evangelizers to the world they live in. The blessing in all of this is that we have a perfect model of just how to do this living among us today. Our Leaders in Faith and Ministry… One priest said it best when he stated, “Pope Benedict XI represents the head of the church, while Pope Francis represents the heart of the church.” Both popes shared their gifts to make the world a better place. Pope Benedict XVI led the church and shared his great intellect to empower people to understand and take more ownership of their faith. Pope Francis calls the church to its roots and challenges all of us to be a voice for the “voiceless” and to make the poor and marginalized our priority.

  • Catholic Flashback Friday: a Brief History of World Youth Day
    Catholic Flashback Friday: A brief history of World Youth Day By Patti Murphy Dohn The logo for the 2016 WYD in Kraków was designed by Monika Rybczyńska: Read about the symbolism in her design here. —– “You are the future of the world, you are the hope of the Church, you are my hope.” —The greeting of Pope John Paul II to youth during his papal inauguration Mass on October 22, 1978 —– In less than two weeks, hundreds of thousands of young people and youth ministers from all over the world will descend upon Kraków, Poland forWorld Youth Day 2016. The Archdiocese of Baltimore will be represented among the huge crowds. A delegation of 40 young adults, led by Father Matt Buening, Catholic chaplain at Towson University, as well as seminarians Matt Himes and Tyler Kline, will be in attendance. Local teen groups from Mount de Sales Academy and St. Mary’s Church, Annapolis are traveling to Poland as well. The Catholic Review will have up-to-date coverage each day from Maureen Cromer, who will blog about her experiences in “Pilgrims in Krakow.” Why Kraków? The homeland of Pope Saint John Paul II is the perfect location for a celebration for World Youth Day (WYD) during this Jubilee Year of Mercy. This year’s theme, which was one of three Beatitude-inspired WYD themes announced by Pope Francis in 2013, is “Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.” (Mt 5:7) Tracing the roots of WYD: During the 1983-1984 Holy Year of the Redemption (which marked 1950 years after Jesus’s crucifixion, death, and resurrection), as well as the 1985 United Nation’s International Youth Year, Pope John Paul II invited young people to come to Rome to pray with him each year on Palm (Passion) Sunday.
