2013-2014 NDS Academic Catalog August 22 The Queenship of Blessed Virgin Mary Dear Friends: Notre Dame Seminary has been preparing men for the priesthood for 90 years. From the apostolic era until the present time, the Church has committed the necessary resources to ensure that we are providing a well-qualified and competent program for the seminarians. Each generation has its own challenges to which a seminary formation program must respond in order that priests are able to shoulder the joys and burdens of pastoral ministry. The character of our seminary community is drawn from the intercession of Our Lady to whom we have entrusted our formation program. Additionally, the Church charges us with a special responsibility to know the vision of our Holy Father, how to integrate the philosophical and theological training of seminarians within the priestly formation program, and to provide a rigorous educational formation according to the best traditions of the Church. While we live in the present moment, we do so considering the vast Tradition of the Church handed on by the apostolic ministry of our bishops in union with the Supreme Pontiff. The challenges of today also position the Church to be a credible sign of the Kingdom when Truth itself is diminished due to a misplaced emphasis on the use of reason alone while abandoning the necessary role of faith. How important it is for a future priest to be prepared to enter into this arena of the evangelization. This catalog reflects the best efforts of our faculty, administration and staff who have committed themselves to Notre Dame Seminary for service to our seminarians. The seminarians will never have another time in their life which is completely devoted to prayer and study – they should use this time well. May the Lord truly bless our seminarians in this upcoming year as we ask for the intercession of Our Lady, our patroness, Saint Joseph, and Saint John Vianney. With every good wish and prayer, I am Sincerely yours in the Lord, Very Reverend James A. Wehner, S.T.D.

  • Bernard Martial & Philippine Duchesne
    BERNARD MARTIAL and PHILIPPINE DUCHESNE: TWO MISSIONARIES to LOUISIANA By Emory C. Webre 6542 Winnebago Street St. Louis, MO 63109 [email protected] Father Bertrand (Bernard) Martial, a priest from Bordeaux, France, served under bishops in four dioceses on two continents and was closely connected with important events in the dioceses of Bordeaux, Bardstown, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Detroit, as well activities in France and Italy. There are at least 83 documents in the files of the Propaganda Fide in Rome that are related to him in some way. I have located close to 250 letters from, to, or about him written during the years 1817 to 1835. He influenced the selection of one bishop in the United States and the rejection of another, and was himself considered for the Sees of New Orleans and Vincennes. He founded schools in Bordeaux, Baton Rouge and New Orleans. He escorted a future saint on her voyage to New Orleans and St. Louis. He was associated with three communities of religious women: the Religious of the Sacred Heart in St. Louis, Missouri, the Ursulines in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, Kentucky. 1. FATHER BERNARD MARTIAL Born in Bordeaux, France about 1770, Bertrand Martial studied for the priesthood, first, in France, and then in Italy when the French Revolution forced the closing of Catholic seminaries. A death notice in the Paris journal, l’Ami de la religion et du roi, gave some details of his life before he came to Louisiana. The death of Father Martial, in New Orleans, has stirred fitting remorse in Bordeaux, where he lived for some time, and where he rendered services that will not be forgotten.

Introduction Part One of this study discussed the history of the Ecclesiastical Seminary of Saint Vincent of Paul, Assumption parish, on Bayou LaFourche. This second part treats of two seminaries in New Orleans, both located in the same building situated next to Saint Stephen's Church. A period of thirty-three years separated the two. The earlier was Saint Vincent's Theological Seminary, (1859-1867); its successor was the Saint Louis Diocesan Seminary of New Orleans (1900-1907). II. The Civil War Seminary (1858-1867) Saint Vincent's Theological Seminary, Bouligny/Jefferson City, New Orleans, Louisiana Introduction The state of Louisiana prospered in its antebellum period, suf- fered through the war between the states and then gradually recov- ered. In the same way, Vincentian theological education in Louisiana began to prosper, suffered during the war and its aftermath, and then recovered somewhat in the following decades.

Introduction John Timon's memoir of the early history of the Congregation of the Mission in the United States, with particular focus on his part in that history, has never previously been published. It has occasionally been cited, and even formed the major source of Charles G. Deuther's Life and Times ofthe Rt. Rev. John Timon, D.D., First Roman Catholic Bishop of the Diocese of Buffalo. l Deuther's work, however, is inaccurate and incomplete, and it is unknown how Deuther came to have access to the manuscript.2 Timon received a request to write his memoir in 1859, as the fol­ lowing letter to Stephen V.

À la mémoire de François Latta, prêtre, (Saint-Symphorien-de-Lay, 1790, Pradines, 1858). François Latta fut ordonné prêtre à Lyon le 22 juillet 1816 par Mgr Dubourg, évêque de La Nouvelle-Orléans, en même temps qu’Antoine Blanc, le futur archevêque de La Nouvelle-Orléans. Aumônier-adjoint de l’hôpital général de Lyon de 1816 à 1824, sous l’autorité de l’abbé Clément Villecourt. Il fut ensuite, de 1824 à sa mort en 1858, aumônier de l’abbaye bénédictine de Pradines. En 1838, son ami Mgr Villecourt, devenu évêque de la Rochelle, et faute de le convaincre de venir auprès de lui - il ne voulait pas abandonner Pradines - fit de François Latta un vicaire général honoraire de son diocèse.
