The images were blessed by Pope Francis on June 29, 2015, the Solemnity of Sts. Peter and Paul, through the auspices of the Almoner of His Holiness, Archbishop Konrad Krajewski. Under the guidance of the state deputies, these framed images are currently on pilgrimage from council to council throughout each jurisdiction.

  • The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic
    The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic Dear Readers, The publication on the Ro- man Catholic Church which you are holding in your hands may strike you as history that belongs in a museum. How- ever, if you leaf through it and look around our beauti- ful country, you may discover that it belongs to the present as well. Many changes have taken place. The history of the Church in this country is also the history of this nation. And the history of the nation, of the country’s inhabitants, always has been and still is the history of the Church. The Church’s mission is to serve mankind, and we want to fulfil Jesus’s call: “I did not come to be served but to serve.” The beautiful and unique pastoral constitution of Vatican Coun- cil II, the document “Joy and Hope” begins with the words: “The joys and the hopes, the grief and the anxieties of the men of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the grief and anxieties of the followers of Christ.” This is the task that hundreds of thousands of men and women in this country strive to carry out. According to expert statistical estimates, approximately three million Roman Catholics live in our country along with almost twenty thousand of our Eastern broth- ers and sisters in the Greek Catholic Church, with whom we are in full communion. There are an additional million Christians who belong to a variety of other Churches. Ecumenical cooperation, which was strengthened by decades of persecution and bullying of the Church, is flourishing remarkably in this country.

  • The Scottish Rite Grand Almoner's Fund
    The Valley of Boston Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry & The Massachusetts Partner-Valleys of Lowell the Merrimack, Salem and Worcester GRAND MASTER’S CLASS Saturday, November 9th, 2019 MOST WORSHIPFUL PAUL F. GLEASON Why Pursue Scottish Rite Masonry? Although there is no more important degree than that of the Master Mason, the additional 29 Scottish Rite degrees serve to enrich a Brother’s comprehension of the philosophy and symbolic teaching he received when he was initiated into Freemasonry. When you choose to further your Masonic experience by becoming a 32° Scottish Rite Mason**, you will expand upon your knowledge of Freemasonry’s fundamental principles. The moral and ethical lessons we learn together, will continuously remind us of our duties to family, country, humanity, nature and the Great Architect of the Universe. You do not have to receive all 29 degrees to become a 32° Mason. However, receiving a minimum of five degrees is required. You must receive the 4° and 32°, along with 3 additional degrees. ** Despite its name (explained later in this brochure), the Scottish Rite welcomes all worthy Master Masons regardless of their ethnic origin. The Origins of the Scottish Rite A vague reference to the name "Scottish Rite" can be found in a manuscript dating back to 1733: ''Lodge #115 meeting at the Devil Tavern near Temple Bar in London was described as a Scott's Masons Lodge." The exact origin of the name, however, still remains a mystery to this day. A plausible explanation might be found in late 17th-century European history. When the British Isles were torn by political and religious conflicts, many Scots from the nobility, particularly from the Stuart dynasty, fled to France to seek King Louis XIV's protection.

  • Clergy Discretionary Funds Policy 2020
    Clergy Discretionary Funds Policy 2020 Introduction St. Martha’s has developed guidelines for the benefit of clergy and our congregation. The guidelines are based upon and closely follow the guidelines of the Episcopal Church found in the Manual of Business Practices. The purpose of these guidelines is to provide information and guidance in the structure and use of a class of restricted funds known as clergy discretionary funds. Authority The existence and use of clergy discretionary funds rest on the canonical authority of the Almoner’s Fund described in Title III, Canon 14, Section 2(f), of the Canons of the Episcopal Church: “The Alms and Contributions, not otherwise specifically designated, at the Administration of the Holy Communion on one Sunday in each calendar month, and other offerings for the poor, shall be deposited with the Member of the Clergy in charge of the Parish or Mission or with such Church officer as shall be appointed by him, to be applied by him or under his superintendence, to such pious and charitable uses as shall by him be thought fit. During a vacancy, the Vestry shall appoint a responsible person to serve as Almoner.” The Almoner’s Funds, generally known as clergy discretionary funds, have a long history of customary use in the Episcopal Church. The member of the clergy in charge of a congregation customarily has a special fund made available by the Vestry, the expenditure of which is under the authority of the cleric. Sources St. Martha’s has decided to set aside a budgeted amount for the discretionary fund as a substitute for the traditional source which is typically the loose offering that is given at the Holy Eucharist a minimum of one Sunday a month.

  • Episcopal Diocese of Northwestern Pennsylvania Alms Fund Guidelines
    EPISCOPAL DIOCESE OF NORTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA ALMS FUND GUIDELINES Alms funds contain money designated solely for pious and charitable purposes, primarily aid to the poor and needy of a parish. The money comes from loose offerings and special collections and from gifts made directly to the rector or priest-in-charge. An almoner, typically a member of the clergy or a cleric’s lay designee, administers the funds. These guidelines are meant to help standardize how congregations of the Episcopal Diocese of Northwestern Pennsylvania define and handle alms funds, and to clarify the use of the funds and their accountability requirements. Underlying these guidelines are three basic rules: Alms funds must be audited, with the information confidential but not secret; alms funds are subject to all the applicable regulations of civil law, particularly those of the Internal Revenue Service; and alms funds are not portable: They are the exclusive and permanent property of the parish and cannot leave control of that parish when the rector or priest-on-charge who had administered them leaves that parish. Following these guidelines ensures that a congregation is both serving the poor through an alms fund and properly monitoring the fund’s use. Background The provision in the national canons of the Episcopal Church regarding alms funds lies in Title III, Canon 9.5.b(6), which states: “The Alms and Contributions, not otherwise specifically designated, at the Administration of the Holy Communion on one Sunday in each calendar month, and other offerings for the poor, shall be deposited with the Rector or Priest-in-Charge or with such Church officer as the Rector or Priest-in-Charge shall appoint to be applied to such pious and charitable uses as the Rector or Priest-in-Charge shall determine.

Many historians have written about the ‘arm’s length’ nature of the relationship between institutions associated with the laity such as hospitals, almshouses and guesthouses;2 which kept these institutions at a distance both physically and administratively. This paper will challenge this view, arguing that there was more to this positioning than the act of removing the lay presence from the religious community. Beginning with a discussion of the range of hospital types, the motives behind care of the laity by religious will follow before analysing a series of case studies

  • Order of Service Together with Details of the Music and Readings
    Westminster Abbey Evensong in the presence of His All-Holiness Bartholomew I Archbishop of Constantinople-New Rome, and Ecumenical Patriarch and The Most Reverend and Right Honourable Justin Welby Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of All England and Metropolitan Tuesday 3rd November 2015 5.00 pm Welcome to Westminster Abbey. Daily prayer has been offered in this place for over a thousand years and your participation in today’s service is warmly welcomed. At Choral Evensong most of the service is sung by the choir on our behalf. We participate through our presence and our listening, that the words and the music might become a prayer within us and lift us to contemplate God’s beauty and glory. The service always includes one or more psalms. These ancient prayers, taken from the Old Testament, reflect the full range of human emotions and experiences; from the depths of anger, resentment, and abandonment to the heights of ecstatic joy and praise. They were used by Jesus, and have always been at the heart of the Church’s daily prayer. The Magnificat and Nunc dimittis, taken from the early chapters of St Luke’s gospel, reflect two responses to the Incarnation (God becoming fully human in Jesus Christ). Both speak of the fulfilment of God’s promises, not just to ‘Abraham and his seed’, but also ‘to be a light to lighten the Gentiles’ (all nations). With their themes of fulfilment and completion, these texts have been given central place for many centuries in the Church’s prayers for the evening and at the end of the day.
