POPE LEO XIII – Quamauam Pluries (1889) The official prayer of the Year of St. Joseph—To you, O blessed Joseph (Ad te, beate Ioseph)—was composed by Pope Leo XIII in his 1889 encyclical, Quamauam Pluries. The Holy Father asked that it be added to the end of the Rosary especially during October, the month of the Holy Rosary. This prayer is enriched with a partial indulgence (Source: USCCB). To you, O blessed Joseph, do we come in our afflictions, and having implored the help of your most holy Spouse, we confidently invoke your patronage also. Through that charity which bound you to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God and through the paternal love with which you embraced the Child Jesus, we humbly beg you graciously to regard the inheritance which Jesus Christ has purchased by his Blood, and with your power and strength to aid us in our necessities. O most watchful guardian of the Holy Family, defend the chosen children of Jesus Christ; O most loving father, ward off from us every contagion of error and corrupting influence; O our most mighty protector, be kind to us and from heaven assist us in our struggle with the power of darkness. As once you rescued the Child Jesus from deadly peril, so now protect God’s Holy Church from the snares of the enemy and from all adversity; shield, too, each one of us by your constant protection, so that, supported by your example and your aid, we may be able to live piously, to die in holiness, and to obtain eternal happiness in heaven. Amen. Year of Saint Joseph | PRAYERS | Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions Page 2 .

#141 What is the Pope’s responsibility? As successor of St. Peter and head of the bishops, the Pope is the source and guarantor of the Church’s unity. He has the supreme pastoral authority and the final authority in doctrinal and disciplinary decisions. He watches over the transmission of the true faith. #143 Is the Pope really infallible? Yes. But the Pope speaks infallibly only when he makes an authoritative decision in doctrinal questions of faith and morals. The infallibility of the Pope has nothing to do with his moral integrity or his intelligence. What is infallible is actually the Church, for Jesus promised her the Holy Spirit, who keeps her in the truth and leads her ever deeper into it. #344 Why does the Church also make declarations about ethical questions and about matters of personal conduct? Believing is a path. One learns how to stay on this path, how to act rightly and to lead a good life, only by following the instructions in the Gospel. you are Peter, & upon this rock St Leo the great (440-461) I will build my Known for his courage against the barbarians who tried church, and the gates of to conquer Rome and kill Christians.

FINAL_MORELAND 8/14/2018 9:10 PM THE PRE-HISTORY OF SUBSIDIARITY IN LEO XIII MICHAEL P. MORELAND† Christian Legal Thought is a much-anticipated contribution from Patrick Brennan and William Brewbaker that brings the resources of the Christian intellectual tradition to bear on law and legal education. Among its many strengths, the book deftly combines Catholic and Protestant contributions and scholarly material with more widely accessible sources such as sermons and newspaper columns. But no project aiming at a crisp and manageably-sized presentation of Christianity’s contribution to law could hope to offer a comprehensive treatment of particular themes. And so, in this brief essay, I seek to elaborate upon the treatment of the principle of subsidiarity in Catholic social thought. Subsidiarity is mentioned a handful of times in Christian Legal Thought, most squarely with a lengthy quotation from Pius XI’s articulation of the principle in Quadragesimo Anno.1 In this proposed elaboration of subsidiarity, I wish to broaden the discussion of subsidiarity historically (back a few decades from Quadragesimo Anno to the pontificate of Leo XIII) and philosophically (most especially its relation to Leo XIII’s revival of Thomism).2 Statements of the principle have historically been terse and straightforward even if the application of subsidiarity to particular legal questions has not.

THIRD EDITION, ENLARGED, AND BROUGHT DOWN TO 1885. REVIEW AND HERALD, BATTLE CREEK, MICH. PACIFIC PRESS, OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA. PREFACE. Tax object of this volume, as its name implies, is to furnish to the inquirer a large fund of facts bearing upon important Bible subjects, which are of special interest to the present generation, • While "the Bible and the Bible alone" is the only unerring rule of faith and practice, it is very desirable oftentimes to ascertain what great and good men have believed concerning its teachings. This is especially desirable when religious doctrines are being taught which were considered new and strange by some, but which, in reality, have bad the sanction of many of the most eminent and devoted of God's servants in the past. Within the last fifty years, great changes have occurred among religious teachers and churches. Many things which were once con- sidered important truths are now questioned or openly rejected ; while other doctrines which are thought to be strange and new are found to have the sanction of the wisest and best teachers of the past. The extracts contained in this work cover a wide range of subjects, many of them of deep interest to the general reader.

And the Encyclical Rerum Novarum
Journal of Markets & Morality Volume 14, Number 2 (Fall 2011): 319–325 Copyright © 2011 The Pontificate of Leo XIII (1878–1903) and Joseph M. de Torre the Encyclical Professor Emeritus * Social and Political Philosophy Rerum Novarum University of Asia and the Pacific Beginning with Leo XIII, a growing body of “social doctrine” was developed in keeping with world events in those fields, always faithful to the values of freedom, truth, justice, love, and peace. This explains why from Rerum Novarum onward the Church’s opposition to utopian socialism has always been at the fore, aiming at the core of socialism as being contrary to human nature and Judeo-Christian revelation. At the same time, the Church’s criticism of liberal capitalism has been directed not to the system of free enterprise, free markets, and private property as such but to the injustices and immoralities spawned by an unprincipled liberalism that can easily creep into such a system unless it is imbued with objective ethical and religious values, which alone can make liberty and democracy workable. Giochino Pecci, Archbishop of Perugia, afterward Camarlengo (Chamberlain) of the Holy Roman Church, and Cardinal after 1853, was elected pope on February 20, 1878, at the age of sixty-eight. He died on July 20, 1903, after one of the longest and most productive pontificates on record. His prophetic mission was supported by both a deep spirituality and piety, manifested in the revival of the devotion to the Rosary, the Blessed Virgin and Saint Joseph, the institution of the feast of the Holy Family, his encyclical on the Holy Spirit, and a rigorous and profound grasp of the Augustinian and Thomistic faith seeking understand- ing.

Benedict XVI and the Sequence of the Sacraments of Initiation
Benedict XVI and the sequence of the sacraments of initiation Paul Turner Pope Benedict XVI has invited the curia and the conferences of Catholic bishops to examine the relative effectiveness of the two sequences of confirmation and first communion. 1 Confirmation precedes first communion throughout the Eastern rites and in the cases when the three sacraments of initiation are administered together in the West; for example, when a priest baptizes catechumens at the Easter Vigil. Although there are instances in the Roman Rite when children baptized in infancy receive confirmation prior to their first communion, the reverse order more commonly prevails. Benedict writes, “Concretely, it needs to be seen which practice better enables the faithful to put the sacrament of the Eucharist at the centre, as the goal of the whole process of initiation.” 2 At first, it appears that Benedict has reached a proleptic conclusion by establishing as the criterion for this examination the centrality of the eucharist. On the other hand, this criterion can be easily explained by the context of this statement. Sacramentum caritatis is the pope’s apostolic exhortation following the synod of bishops convened to discuss the eucharist. In one section, the Holy Father draws attention to the relationship between the eucharist and the other sacraments of the Catholic Church. In most cases the connections are complaisant. The eucharist perfects the gifts received at baptism. 3 Catechesis on the eucharist requires a call to penance. 4 The anointing of the sick includes an opportunity for viaticum. 5 Jesus bracketed the eucharist and orders at the Last Supper.

I feel greatly privileged give this lecture in honor of your Archbishop Emeritus. My personal friendship with, and esteem for, Archbishop Gerety go back at least to 1971, when he invited me to give two weeks of lectures to his priests in Portland, Maine. I still see him several times a year, and am always encouraged to see his liveliness at what most of us regard as an advanced age. I hope that my reflections on faith and culture will harmonize with his insights. St. Augustine said with reference to time that he knew what it was until he was asked to define it. One might say the same about culture. We are all familiar with it from daily experience, but we find it almost impossible to put in words what we know. In the sense I am going to use the term, a culture may 1 be roughly described as a set of ideas and attitudes, historically transmitted, that pervades a given social group, inclining its members to feel, think, speak, and act in certain ways. Benedict XVI in a recent book calls culture the “system of notions and thought patterns that preconditions the individual human being.” He goes on to say: “The first and foremost component of culture is the common language; then comes the constitution of the society, that is, the government with its subdivisions, then law, customs, moral concepts, art, forms of worship, and so on.” Theologically considered, culture is “the system of life into which the Word of the gospel enters.”i Some speak as though all cultures were equally good, but this can hardly be the case.

Supremi Apostolatus Officio Encyclical of Pope Leo Xiii on Devotion of the Rosary
The Holy See SUPREMI APOSTOLATUS OFFICIO ENCYCLICAL OF POPE LEO XIII ON DEVOTION OF THE ROSARY To all the Patriarchs, Primates, Archbishops and Bishops of the Catholic World in the Grace and Communion of the Apostolic See. Venerable Brethren, Health and the Apostolic Benediction. The supreme Apostolic office which we discharge and the exceedingly difficult condition of these times, daily warn and almost compel Us to watch carefully over the integrity of the Church, the more that the calamities from which she suffers are greater. While, therefore, we endeavour in every way to preserve the rights of the Church and to obviate or repel present or contingent dangers, We constantly seek for help from Heaven - the sole means of effecting anything - that our labours and our care may obtain their wished for object. We deem that there could be no surer and more efficacious means to this end than by religion and piety to obtain the favour of the great Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, the guardian of our peace and the minister to us of heavenly grace, who is placed on the highest summit of power and glory in Heaven, in order that she may bestow the help of her patronage on men who through so many labours and dangers are striving to reach that eternal city. Now that the anniversary, therefore, of manifold and exceedingly great favours obtained by a Christian people through the devotion of the Rosary is at hand, We desire that that same devotion should be offered by the whole Catholic world with the greatest earnestness to the Blessed Virgin, that by her intercession her Divine Son may be appeased and softened in the evils which afflict us.
