Solanus Casey, OFM Cap November 25, 1870 - July 31, 1957 St. Bonaventure Secular Franciscans St. Bonaventure “I give my soul to Jesus Christ.” Congratulations to the Solanus Guild on its 50th Anniversary! The Poverello Visit our website: http://www.sfostbonaventure-detroit.org Minister’s Letter My dear brothers and sisters, May the Lord grant you peace! As you may recall from reading my article in the June Poverello, Br. Pat led us through an experience of Appreciative Inquiry at our fraternity gathering in May. Because everyone agreed that it was a very positive experience and wanted to continue the process, Br. Pat agreed to lead us through the second phase of the Appreciative Inquiry process at the fraternity gathering in June. However, all of our plans for the fraternity gathering changed when we received the sad news that our sister and friend, Faye Boland, passed away on Thursday, June 10. Faye attended her granddaughter’s high school graduation on Sunday, June 6. After the ceremony, Faye and Joe went to their son’s home for a family party. As Faye and Joe were driving away from their son’s home, Faye slumped over in the car. An ambulance was called and Faye was rushed to the hospital. Faye had suffered a stroke. On Wednesday, Faye underwent surgery to relieve pressure on her brain. On Thursday, we received the news that Faye had died. Because of this news, Br. Pat and I decided to forego the planned agenda for the fraternity gathering on June 13 and instead to hold a prayer service in remembrance of Faye.

  • Mendicant Orders of the Middle Ages
    Mendicant Orders of the Middle Ages The Monks and Monasteries of the early Middle Ages played a critical roal in the preservation and promotion of Christian culture. The accomplishments of the monks, especially during the 'Dark Ages', are too numerous to list. They were the both missionaries and custodians of Catholic culture for generations, and the monastic reforms of the tenth century paved the way for the reforms of the secular clergy that followed. By the beginning of the 13th century, however, there was seen a need for a new type of religious community, and thus were born the Mendicant Orders. The word 'Mendicant' means beggar, and this was due to the fact that the Mendicant Friars, in contrast to the Benedictine Monks, lived primarily in towns, rather than on propertied estates. Since they did not own property, they were not beholden to secular rulers and were free to serve the poor, preach the gospel, and uphold Christian ideals without compromise. The Investiture Controversy of the previous century, and the underlying problems of having prelates appointed by and loyal to local princes, was one of the reasons for the formation of mendicant orders. Even though monks took a vow of personal poverty, they were frequently members of wealthy monasteries, which were alway prone to corruption and politics. The mendicant commitment to poverty, therefore, prohibited the holding of income producing property by the orders, as well as individuals. The poverty of the mendicant orders gave them great freedom, in the selection of their leaders, in the their mobility, and in their active pursuits.

  • Franciscan Sacramentary Supplement
    1 FRANCISCAN PROPER OF THE SAINTS July 4 1. The rank of the celebration (solemnity, feast or memorial) is indicated for each day. If there is no indication, it is an optional memorial. 2. For each solemnity and feast a proper Mass is provided in its entirety. This is therefore used as given. 3. For memorials: a) Proper texts, given on some days, must always be used; b) When there is a reference to a particular common, the most appropriate texts should be chosen according to the principles at the beginning of the commons. The page reference in each case indicates only the beginning of the common to which reference is made. c) If the rederence is to more than one common, one or the other may be used, according to pastoral need. It is always permissible to interchange texts from several Masses within the same common. For example, if a saint is both a martyr and a bishop, either the common of martyrs or the common of pastor (bishops) may be used. d) In addition to the commons which express a special characteristic holiness (e.g., of martyrs, virgins, or pastors), the texts from the common of saints, referring to holiness in general may always be used. For example, in the case of a saint who is both a virgin and a martyr, texts from the common of saints in general may be used, in addition to texts from the common of martyrs or the common of virgins. e) The prayers over the gifts and after communion, unless there are proper prayers, may be taken either from the common or from the current liturgical season.

The American Enterprise Institute (AEI) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) educational organization and does not take institutional positions on any issues. The views expressed here are those of the author(s). Opening the Fifth Seal Catholic Martyrs and Forces of Religious Competition Rachel M. McCleary and Robert J. Barro Jorge Mario Bergoglio, since becoming Pope Francis in March 2013, is focusing on martyrdom in the Roman Catholic Church. Two months into his pontificate, Francis canonized the 813 martyrs of Otranto, the largest such group in recorded Catholic Church history. Five months later, Francis beatified another large group, 499 martyrs of the Spanish Civil War. Francis continues to emphasize martyrs over confessors, the name given to blessed persons who died of natural causes. In 2019, Francis beatified 39 martyrs and only 6 confessors. As a snapshot of what is happening, within the last four years, 14 persons who died in Guatemala have qualified as blessed martyrs; six were foreign missionaries who served in Guatemala and eight were national lay persons, including one child.1 The missionaries were Oklahoma priest Stanley Rother, the first U.S. born martyr beatified by the Catholic Church, three Missionaries of the Sacred Heart priests, a priest of the Order of Friars Minor, and James Miller, of the De La Salle Brothers of the Christian Schools and the last Vatican beatification for 2019.

    Ruben Suykerbuyk - 9789004433106 Downloaded from Brill.com10/06/2021 04:56:40AM via free access Chapter 9 Devotional Negotiation with the Archducal Government Over the course of August 1616, some four years after the miracles had resumed, the Zoutleeuw authorities were approached by a high- ranked military officer. A delegation of representatives of church and city, consisting of the dean of the collegiate chapter, the burgomas- ter and a churchwarden, was sent to the nearby town of Sint-Truiden for a meeting with an unidentified commisaris Generael, about ‘the holy relic of our patron Saint Leonard’.1 This was to be the first in a series of intense and relatively costly negotiations to obtain a relic of Saint Leonard for the collegiate church, the meetings for which took place primarily in Brussels during the first weeks of November. The parish priest, the burgomaster and a messenger, each in turn, went to the court city to follow up on the developments in the case.2 These meetings proved to be fruitful: on 14 November a deed of gift was drawn up before a Brussels notary. The document declared that Don Luis de Velasco, general of the light cavalry of the Spanish army in the Low Countries and presumably the man referred to as com- misaris Generael, donated part of Saint Leonard’s cranium to the Zoutleeuw church, as he was convinced that it would be venerated there with due reverence. With this in mind, he handed over the relic to Abbot Godfried Lemmens (r. 1609–1627) of Vlierbeek Abbey, one of the two patrons of the Zoutleeuw church.3

I owe thanks to the University of Texas at Austin for the financial wherewithal to support myself while finishing the project. However, the intellectual milieu that the university provided from 2001 to 2007 was, perhaps, more important to my development as a scholar. Without the academic community of professors and fellow students at Texas, this project would never have taken the form it did. I am indebted to Ann Twinam, my dissertation advisor, who read many drafts of the work and who deserves credit for improvements too numerous to elaborate. Special thanks go to Jorge Cañizares as a welcome source of energy, of inspiration and of bold ideas.
