  • Subiaco Abbey
    The Abbey Message Subiaco Abbey Vol LXX, No. 4 Spring 2014 Why be a Benedictine Oblate? The Inside by Fr. Mark Stengel, OSB Message Subiaco Abbey has about 230 Oblates associated with the monastery. These men and women are considered real “family members” of the community. As such, this ministry constitutes a larger outreach than the Academy, with less than 200 students. Regularly, 2 The Abbey Message carries information about the Academy, the Alumni, the Coury House, and the Farm. But what and who are these “Oblates?” As I began this article, Abbot’s Message my ideas turned to a theoretical analysis rather than a practical description. That is, God or the Works of God? what are the deep human and divine motivations to which an Oblate responds? Mariah Carey sings about the “Hero Found in You.” The rich young man in the Gospel (Mark 10: 17-27) was diligently keeping all the commandments, but asked Jesus “What else should I do?” John Michael Talbot speaks about ordinary people yearn- 3 ing for “something more,” and how very often this desire impels him or her toward the Abbey Journal religious or monastic life. They sense an “inner monk” seeking expression. The Bud- dhist tradition asks all adherents to live as a monk or nun for several years. Then he or Winter Weather she may continue in the monastic life and make vows, or move on to other pursuits in life. Recently, a married Episcopal woman visited the Abbey. After several days of pray- ing with and interacting with the monks, she commented that it was very fulfilling to be 7 around people who were living out the same impulses that she had been feeling.

  • Catholic Missions Among the Yankton Sioux
    FOSTERING OKODAKICIYE: CATHOLIC MISSIONS AMONG THE YANKTON SIOUX ___________________ A Paper Presented to Dr. Joseph M. White, Ph.D., M.L.S. The Catholic University of America ___________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Course TRS 728J – American Catholics & Social Reform ___________________ by Brother Joshua Patrick Finn, T.O.R. December 18, 2010 (updated May 21, 2011) Okodakiciye (pronounced “o-ko-da-kee-chee-yay”) is a term in the Dakota language that, loosely translated, means “spiritual bonds of friendship.” It is also the title of the newsletter of St. Paul Indian Mission in Marty, S.D., where I was privileged to live with the people of the Ihanktonwan Oyate (Yankton Sioux Tribe) for eight weeks last summer helping to build the Church through personal and communal prayer, presence, learning, and cultural immersion. One learns quickly while working on an Indian reservation that any effective ministry will always be based upon fostering friendly and positive human relationships with the Natives, and simply trusting them. Fostering this virtue of okodakiciye has been and continues to be the backbone of all missionary work on the reservations of the Sioux tribes of South Dakota and elsewhere. It is what the missionaries have been doing—to varying degrees of success—since the first encounter of Fr. Louis Hennepin, O.F.M. with the Santee Sioux in 1680.1 This paper will serve as a personal reflection and synthesis of the history, current state, and future of the Catholic Indian missions of present-day South Dakota—especially the mission among the Yankton people—with special consideration given to the ways in which they have sought to be instruments of social reform in the lives of the Sioux.2 Upon surveying the landscape of available literature on the history of Catholic missionary activity among Native Americans, it becomes quickly apparent that the ideological span of material is as wide as the horizon.
