In that little town, my son, where they knew us together, you called me mother; but no one had eyes to see the astounding events as they took place day by day. Your life became the life of the poor in your wish to be with them through the work of your hands. I knew: the light that lingered in ordinary things, like a spark sheltered under the skin of our days -- the light was you; it did not come from me. And I had more of you in that luminous silence than I had of you as the fruit of my body, my blood.

    * * * * * MEDIA RELEASE * * * * * Catholic Diocese of Little Rock Settles with Five Men Who Were Sexually Abused as Children by a Priest at Holy Souls in Little Rock: The Pedophile Priest, Father John J. McDaniel, is believed to have many more victims throughout Little Rock and Arkansas. June 26, 2018 Little Rock, Arkansas – The Catholic Diocese of Little Rock, after mediation in May of this year, agreed to settle claims made by five Little Rock men who were sexually abused by Father John J. McDaniel in the early 1970s. This is believed to be the first time the Catholic Diocese of Little Rock – which encompasses the entire state of Arkansas – has settled cases with child sex abuse victims of priests in Arkansas. Earlier this year, Bishop Anthony Taylor of the Diocese of Little Rock released a list of priests credibly accused of sexual abuse. Fr. John McDaniel was on that list along with a number of other priests. “While this is far from the first or only time a priest in Arkansas has abused boys, we believe this is the first time the Diocese has agreed to pay monetary damages to compensate for the indescribable harm inflicted upon these men,” says Joshua Gillispie, of Little Rock, one of the attorneys for the victims. “We are very proud of our clients, who had the strength of heart and mind to come forward and hold the Diocese of Little Rock responsible for its long history of misdeeds.” The pedophile priest in this case, Father John J. McDaniel, was ordained in 1955 after attending seminary in Little Rock.

    PRAYER OF THE V ENCUENTRO God of infinite Mercy, you sent your Risen Son to encounter the disciples on the way to Emmaus. Grant us today a missionary spirit and send us forth to encounter our sisters and brothers: to walk with them in friendship, to listen to their hopes and dreams with compassion, and to proclaim your Word with courage, so that they might come to know you once again in the breaking of the Bread. Make us all missionary disciples, and stay with us always, as we seek to share the joy of the Gospel with people of all generations, from every race, language, culture, and nation.

An expression of warm thanks is extended to the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City for such a lavish gift from God. More than 3,000 attended the consecration at the Governor’s Hall at the Statehouse Convention Center. Many priests, religious and lay people from Oklahoma arrived. Bishop Taylor’s parents, siblings, and a relative from Guam were also present. Parishioners from Sacred Heart Parish and St. Monica Parish were seated behind the Oklahoma priests. “You don’t know what you are getting,” Wilma Moisant from Sacred Heart said. “I have known Father Taylor since he was in the seminary back in the ’80s.” Moisant told of a terrible time in her life when she discovered her son dead in his home. “I called Father Taylor,” Moisant said. “He came right over and stayed with the family.” St. Monica parishioners, Marie and Scott Connolly, told of Bishop Taylor’s love of hiking and being outdoors. “Bishop Taylor is a man of prayer and faithful to the gospels,” Marie Connolly said. “When he asks someone to do a task, he lets them do it,” Scott Connolly added.

  • Lent 2021: What to Been the "Lent-Iest" Lent Ever
    For The Bulletin Of ancestors and their wilderness wandering in 21 February 2021 what for them was not only a place of God’s revelation and promises, but also a place of their temptations and failures. Jesus will show Himself to be the most faithful Israelite. The opposition between human sin and divine presence, between the “angelic” and the “beastly” was starkly exposed in Jesus’ own psyche. And if we are honest and mindful, we know them in ourselves and in our own struggles to be faithful daughters and sons of our same Father. The English artist Stanley Spencer (1891- 1959 painted a “wilderness series” about the life of Christ. In one of these paintings he depicts Jesus sitting on the desert sands with a “wild beast.” But the beast is not a roaring THE FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT lion or a skulking tiger.

This papal legislation codified the ancient practice of bishops reporting on the health and well-being of their dioceses to the Pontiff (cf.
