  • Is This Operation Suicide?
    Is this Operation Suicide? An Analysis of the evidence relating to an agreement between the Society of Saint Pius X and the Conciliar Church of Rome With material compiled by Stephen J. Fox 1 In this book I seek to analyse the evidence relating to a possible agreement between the Society of Saint Pius X and the Conciliar Church. I conclude that many of the Superiors of the Society are prepared to enter into an agreement with the Conciliar Church, where that agreement is a practical agreement (only), without a doctrinal resolution and the terms of which would mean that the Society would be subject to the Conciliar Church. I conclude that the conduct of many of the Superiors of the Society in relation to a possible agreement with the Conciliar Church represents a staggering change from the Society's principles and direction. I conclude that the position adopted by many of the Superiors of the Society in relation to such an agreement is contrary to the position of the Society's founder, Archbishop Lefebvre. Archbishop Lefebvre said the following words on 6 September 19901: "Some people are always admiring the grass in the neighbour's field...they look to our enemies on the other side. "After all, we must be charitable, we must be kind, we must not be divisive, after all, they are celebrating the Tridentine Mass, they are not as bad as everyone says" —but THEY ARE BETRAYING US —betraying us! They are shaking hands with the Church's destroyers. They are shaking hands with people holding modernist and liberal ideas condemned by the Church.

  • Marian Calendar December 1
    Marian Calendar December 1 - Our Lady of Ratisbon, Bavaria (1842) One of the most famous examples of Our Lady’s bounty in granting favors to the wearers of the Miraculous Medal occurred less than ten years after the medal had been struck. Alphonse Rathisbonne was a French Jew who had no religion. When his brother Theodore became a Catholic and then a priest, Alphonse was filled with aversion. He was a typical intellectual of the nineteenth century, a worshipper of humanity, who sneered at anything spiritual in his pride and ignorance. In November 1841, Alphonse found himself in Rome, although his itinerary had not called for a stop in the Eternal City. There he met Baron de Bussiere. The Baron urgently requested him to wear the Miraculous Medal and to recite daily the prayer of Saint Bernard, “The Memorare.” Alphonse did so in the spirit of acceptance and of dare but without the slightest bit of faith. On January 20, 1842, Monsieur de Bussiere saw Alphonse walking along the street and invited him into his carriage. They stopped at Saint Andrea delle Fratee because the Baron wished to see a priest there. In order to kill time, Rathisbonne entered the church. He was not very much impressed and was walking around rather listlessly. Suddenly the church seemed to be plunged into darkness and all the light concentrated on one chapel. Very much startled he saw there our Blessed Mother bathed in glorious light, her face radiant. He went toward her. She motioned with her right hand for him to kneel.

LA VOIX AND THE HISTORY OF PILGRIMAGE From the time of its construction, beginning in the twelfth century, the Cathedral of Chartres has been a place of Christian pilgrimage, but the flow of pilgrims was almost completely cut off after the Revolution of 1789. With the Concordat and the Restoration, revival became possible; the best way to understand this revival and the personalities involved is to study La Voix de Notre-Dame de Chartres, a small pious review for pil­ grims, which appeared for the first time in mid-January, 1857, and con­ tinued publication until 1969.

    INNTRODUCTIONTRODUCTION Editor’s Note John T. Maher, C.M. This issue of Vincentiana is devoted to a work of the Congregation that may seem obscure to the untrained eye, but one that traces itself back to the time of St. Vincent; namely, ministry as provincial directors to nearly 18,000 Daughters of Charity throughout the world. Today, over seventy confreres serve as provincial directors to 71 provinces and 1 region of the Daughters of Charity. Indeed, when one considers the added number of confreres serving the Daughters as confessors, retreat masters, and spiritual directors, it is clear that the sons of St. Vincent continue to be faithful to this work he began over 350 years ago. This issue contains highlights from proceedings of the July 2012 world-wide meeting in Paris meeting of the provincial directors. Organ- ized by the Director General Fr. Patrick Griffi n, it brought together confreres and Daughters to listen and learn from one another. As you will see from these articles, it was a rich and rewarding exchange of ideas. The topics discussed were far ranging, covering a gamut of historical, theological, pastoral and Vincentian charism presentations relevant to their role as provincial directors of the Daughters of Charity today. As Sr. Evelyne Franc observed to the provincial directors in her address, “I don’t think you ever thought of the possibility of this service when you entered the Congregation, even though this ministry with the Daughters is included in your Constitutions”. Yet, our confreres are not only willing and adaptable, but as can be seen in these pages, deeply committed to assisting the Vincentian identity, spiritual formation and pastoral care of the Daughters.

  • Friars' Bookshelf 291 and Communism Might Never Have Come Into the World," Had He Not Been So Determined on Being a Materialist
    fRIARS~+ + +BOOKSHEU Our Land and Our Lady. By Daniel Sargent. 263 pp. Longm.ans, Green, New York. $2.50. Our Land and Our Lady-can there really be some sensible, sig­ nificant reason for such a connection, apart from pious imaginations? It certainly would not be expected from the Protestant and natural­ istic systems of thought which for the past two centuries have been prominent in American life. Even the mention of the Mother of Christ has been absent from their considerations. It is a purely Catholic concept, yet because more elemental tasks have demanded the efforts of Catholic historians, the importance of Mary as patroness of the United States is only now coming to be fully and vitally ap­ preciated by the body of American Catholics. The present influence of Our Lady in our country is the development of her role in its dis­ covery and colonization, which were accomplished completely in her name, not merely in a small section, but throughout the whole land by three different foreign nations. Missionary activity dedicated to Mary was among the prominent motives inspiring American colon­ ization. The aim of Catholic colonists was to establish the religion and civilization of Mary's Son an1ong the natives. Spain in the time of Columbus was the typical Catholic Spain. Her religion prompted her to missionary activity with the discovery of vast pagan lands to the West. It is evident from solitary landmarks still remaining that the Spanish colonization of our South, South­ west, and Far West was dedicated to Our Lady, the "Conquistadora." The English Catholics who settled in Maryland dedicated their new home to Saint Mary and set up the first instance of reli.gious liberty in the colonies.

    Presentation Through the initiative and invitation of the Superior General of the CM and the Daughters of Charity, Robert Maloney, CM, an invitation was addressed to all the provinces of the two Communities to participate in the First Vincentian Month for Advisors of the Lay Groups of the Vincentian Family, which was held in Paris, 7-26 July 2002. The response was very positive with 64 Daughters of Charity, 44 members of the CM, two religious from other Congregations and one laywoman participating. We were able to count on the leadership presence of some of the branches of the Vincentian Family who accompanied us, especially during the second week of this meeting. The Organizing Commission (Roberto Lovera, CM, representing SIEV; Sr. Margaret Barrett, DC; Marina Costa, AIC; and Benjamín Romo, CM) began preparations by selecting topics that would most likely help participants reflect on the Advisor’s role and tasks in today’s Church. The Commission set the meeting’s objectives: deepen the understanding of our Founders’ doctrine, know the branches and works of the Vincentian Family and discover better our role as Advisors. They divided the topics into three parts: 1) Faithful to the Gospel, the Church and St. Vincent; 2) the Being and Work of the Vincentian Family; 3) the Role of the Advisor to the groups of the Vincentian Family. The deepening of these three themes was achieved through conferences, group work, summaries, sharing experiences and a weekly syntheses. The location of the meeting (Motherhouse of the Daughters of Charity) and visits to Vincentian places in Paris, allowed participants to deepen their fidelity to the Gospel, to the Church and naturally to our Founders, for they too were animators of Confraternities of Charity and the two nascent Communities.

To say that the book was a revelation is inadequately to express a fact; at once all the theology, philosophy, and mysticism, the poli- tics, sociology, and economics, the romance, literature, and art of that greatest epoch of Christian civilization became fused in the alembic of an unique insight and precipitated by the dynamic force of a per- sonal and distinguished style.
