Bede McGregor O.P., Concilium Spiritual Director and Tommy McCabe, President, Postulator for the Cause of the Concilium Legionis Mariae Servant of God Frank Duff The talks collected in these pages are a real treasure, which merit close study by priests and laity and should, if reflected upon and acted upon, prove to be a very valuable instrument in the New Evangelisation, which is so important in the mission of the Church today. The talks, which were presented at a Conference for Priests: The New Evangelisation: Priests and Laity - The Great Challenge of the New Millennium, organised by the Legion of Mary, include those by the Archbishop of Dublin and two Cardinals, one in charge of the Congregation for Divine Worship, and the other the Congregation for the Evangelisation of Peoples, in the Vatican. They show us in a profound way, the mind of the Church in regard to Evangelisation at this time. There are talks, too, by priests distinguished in different fields, who give of their knowledge and experience. The voice of lay people is also heard in these pages. In the opening talk, Archbishop Martin thanks the Legion of Mary for this affirmation of priests and speaks of his contact with the Servant of God, Frank Duff. He says that there is no Church without the Eucharist and speaks of Mary as the Mother of priests. Cardinal Arinze says “Evangelisation is the mandate given by our beloved Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to his whole Church. In this Church there are different but complementary roles assigned to priests and to the lay faithful. It matters very much for the success of the mission of the Church that these roles be properly understood, lovingly accepted and dynamically carried out.” He says that the new Evangelisation is not new in its content but in its fervour. He notes that about 17½% of the world’s population is Catholic. He goes on to define who are the Lay Faithful and says that their proper area of apostolate is to give witness in worldly activities. He cites the Legion of Mary as a good example of collaboration between priests and lay faithful. Cardinal Dias speaks out of his own experience on True Devotion to Mary in the life of a Priest and says that Mary can make happy and holy priests. He speaks of the many Marian Shrines in the world, and of the manifestation of the Miraculous Medal by Our Lady to St. Catherine Labouré and refers to the use of the medal by the Legion. He says: “Be convinced of the victory of Christ through Mary.” Fr. Breandán Leahy, Professor of Dogmatic Theology, says: “it seems the Holy Spirit wants us to rediscover the Church’s Marian profile as the basis for our re-launching out into the deep.” Fr. Paul Churchill, Marriage Tribunal, Archdiocese of Dublin, mentions the personal support for the priest, which the Legion gives. Fr. Gerard Deighan, Lecturer in Scripture, says that Mary mediates every grace and brings us joy; Mary’s outstretched arms are an invitation to gather round her. 1 Fr. Pádraig Ó Cochláin, Chaplain, Marino Institute of Education, Dublin, in introducing one of the sessions makes the call: “Let us start the new evangelization of Ireland.” Fr. Bede McGregor, O.P. Concilium Spiritual Director and Postulator for the Cause of the Servant of God Frank Duff, says: “Above all the vision of Frank Duff concerning the priest and laity can only be understood in the context of evangelisation and the salvation of souls. Both priest and laity must be totally christocentric and the central focus of Christ is the salvation of souls. Our Lord put it categorically more than once: ‘I came to save sinners.’ Evangelization is simply cooperating in the work of redemption.” He speaks of Frank Duff’s profound reverence for the Priesthood and how he had spent his life trying to get people into Heaven. Monsignor Joseph Murphy from the Secretariat of State, Vatican, declares that only in Christ do we find true joy and that Christianity must present itself as the Religion of Truth and Love. He also speaks of Mary as the image of the Church. Dr. Finola Kennedy, a legionary and an economist, declares: “I think the Church is fully alive only when the priest and laity work together. To encourage the laity, to help them to gain knowledge of their religion, to mobilise and to lead them in the apostolic work of the Church, that it what the priest means to the lay apostolate.” She speaks of how bishops and priests, some of whom she mentions, had known how to use lay people in the Legion. The lives of Venerable Edel Quinn and the Servants of God, Frank Duff and Alfie Lambe, are put before us as wonderful examples of the spiritual and apostolic life by Fr. John Hogan of the Meath Diocese and by legionaries, Síle Ní Chochláin and Noel Lynch. For completeness sake, it should be noted that other speakers gave inspiring testimonies, which are not included in these pages. These included: Declan Lawlor who gave witness to the importance of the Legion in his life and in his profession as a solicitor. Fr. Owen Gorman, a priest from the Clogher Diocese, and three legionaries, Mary Mulpeter, Liam Hayden and Bernardo de Nardo, who addressed Challenges facing the Irish Church today such as Mass attendance, Vocations, Family Life, and preaching on moral matters. In addition, it was not possible to include the many substantial contributions made by the priests and laypeople present at the Conference. May these pages lead us to a greater love of God our Father, of Jesus and Mary and the Church and make us more receptive to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit for the conversion of the world to the glory of the Blessed Trinity. Tommy McCabe Fr. Bede McGregor O.P. President Spiritual Director and Postulator for the Cause of Concilium Legionis Mariae the Servant of God Frank Duff, Concilium Legionis Mariae Pentecost Sunday, 11 May 2008 2 FOREWARD His Eminence Seán Cardinal Brady, Archbishop of Armagh, Primate of All Ireland The lectures on New Evangelisation organised by the Legion of Mary and delivered at a Conference at the Emmaus Conference Centre, from 22 -24 May, 2007, brought together a very high level of expertise on the topic of the New Evangelisation which, as a world programme, aims at the restoration of Christianity in the developed world and the completion of the Church’s missionary task in the third world. The Conference focused on the crucial key to success in this programme, the co-operation of priests and laity in mission. In the days of Pius XI ‘Catholic Action’ was born and the mobilisation of the laity was promoted. Now, seventy years later, the priest in the western hemisphere, can often feel isolated and intimidated, ill-prepared to respond to the call to mission. Yet Europe is being called to think in its heart once more and to set out to regain its Christian identity.

  • Venerable Edel Quinn
    Venerable Edel Quinn Edel Quinn was born in Kanturk, Co. Cork, Ireland on September 14th, 1907. As a girl, her desire was to enter a Contemplative Convent, but she was prevented from doing so by ill health. At the age of 20, Edel Quinn joined the Legion of Mary in Dublin and gave herself entirely to its apostolate. In 1932, she became seriously ill and spent a long period in hospital. Edel later resumed her Legion work, though with her health permanently impaired. Edel Quinn was appointed Legion of Mary Envoy with the commission to establish the organization in the vast territories of East and Central Africa. She encountered great obstacles in this pioneering work. As against every difficulty and her wretched health, Edel Quinn brought to her task an absolute faith in God's love and a limitless trust in the maternal care of the Blessed Virgin. Edel Quinn was gifted with a clear practical mind, notable organizing ability, an indomitable will, a deep fund of warm, human sympathy and an infectious joyousness of spirit that never failed her. Everyone who knew her, including her parents, her three sisters and a brother, describe Edel as having been totally unselfish, giving herself to others without consideration of herself. Edel had a concern for everyone and shared in their sufferings, but never revealed her own. She was truly patient in her suffering, which was considerable, but she never gave evidence of pain or worriment. She was always cheerful, even when she was in intense pain or extreme discomfort. She was known for her joy and for her love of jokes as much as she was for her holiness.

    Japan who spent some time admiring the first Legion altar and looking at the photographs of Envoys, four of whom were responsible for setting up and spreading the Legion in Japan. Like so many other visitors they enjoyed a cup of tea and a tour of Frank Duff’s house. They deeply appreciated the time and hospitality given to them. The Bishop is considering having the Legion in his Diocese and will give it further consideration on his return home. Sincere thanks to all the legionaries who helped in any way. Prayer for the Beatification of the Servant of God Frank Duff God our Father, You inspired your servant Frank Duff with a profound insight into the mystery of Your Church, the Body of Christ, and of the place of Mary the Mother of Jesus in this mystery. In his immense desire to share this insight with others and in filial dependence on Mary he formed her Legion to be a sign of her maternal love for the world and a means of enlisting all her children in the Church's evangelizing work. We thank you Father for the graces conferred on him and for the benefits accruing to the Church from his courageous and shining faith. With confidence we beg You that through his intercession you grant the petition we lay before You................. We ask too that if it be in accordance with Your will, the holiness of his life may be acknowledged by the Church for the glory of your Name, through Christ Our Lord, Amen. All Legion Councils, Praesidia and individual legionaries are encouraged to actively promote the Cause of the Servant of God, Frank Duff, through the widespread dissemination of the Frank Duff prayer leaflets, through the organizing of Frank Duff prayer groups BULLETIN - September 2018 and the holding of Masses to commemorate his life.

With the support of the ACT Office of Multicultural, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs (Community Service Directory – ACT Government) Original publication by Sara Khalidi 1997 Revised and Edited by Fiona McIlroy 2003 Revised and Edited by Hannah Neumayer 2012 Cultural Dictionary & Directory 2012 - Project of the Migrant and Refugee Settlement Services of the ACT Inc. 1 PREFACE TO THE CULTURAL DICTIONARY The wealth of cultural diversity in Australia is arguably one of its major assets. Acknowledgement of difference and acceptance of each person’s unique qualities, as well as their particular blend of cultural influences can assist people to grow in cultural richness and social strength. However more often than not, perceptions and attitudes are based on the limited understandings we currently hold, and we are all prone to prejudice. The key to cultural understanding lies in an open mind. Given the rise in expressions of racist attitudes in recent times, it is more important than ever to remember that general statements about cultural backgrounds can lead to stereotyping. Stereotyping often undervalues individuals and cultures, and can be based on mistaken assumptions. It must be noted that the brief and general descriptions of a culture or country, such as the snapshots in this Cultural Dictionary, should never be applied in a blanket way to any individual or group.

  • The Object of the Legion of Mary Is the Glory of God Through the Holiness of Its Members Developed by Prayer and Active Co-Operation in Mary’S and the Church’S Work
    The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active co-operation in Mary’s and the Church’s work. Legion of Mary holds a weekly meeting, where prayer is intermingled with reports and discussion. The Legion sees as its priority the spiritual and social welfare of each individual. The members participate in the life of the parish through visitation of families, the sick, in hospitals and through collaboration in every apostolic and missionary undertaking sponsored by the parish. Every Legionary is required to carry out a weekly apostolic work in the spirit of faith and in union with Mary. The Legion of Mary is a lay apostolic association of Catholics who, with the sanction of the Church and under the powerful leadership of Mary Immaculate, Mediatrix of All Graces, serve the Church and their neighbor on a voluntary basis in about 170 countries. Many persons outside the Catholic Church would also benefit from that apostolate. With the approval and support of the Popes and a great many Bishops, Priests and Religious, as well as the prayers and efforts of legionaries, the Legion, by the grace of God, has grown into a worldwide organization with several million members. The Legion aims to bring Mary to the world as the infallible means of winning the world to Jesus and legionary service is based on the doctrine of the Mystical Body of Christ so that in their fellow members and in those they serve, legionaries seek to have the Person of our Lord once again seen and served by Mary, his Mother.

    Alfie Lambe 1932 - 1959 From humble beginnings Alphonsus Lambe was born in Tullamore, County Offaly on June 24th 1932. Alfie, as he was known, entered the Novitiate of the Irish Christian Brothers on September 8th, 1948. However he suffered fainting attacks and it was decided that he should return to his family in Tullamore for a time to see if he could build up his strength. Alfie was heartbroken. However, one evening in 1950, his brother Jack invited him to a meeting of the Legion of Mary. Alfie never looked back, eventually offering his services to the headquarters (the ‘Concilium’) of the Legion of Mary. On 11th February 1953, the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, Alfie received a letter from Concilium inviting him to work as a Legion envoy in South America. Although his mother would miss him dearly, Alfie accepted. Kathleen, Joe, Alfie & Mary Lambe 1941 “My mother, in replying to my letter in which I told her the news, says that she does not like to see me going so far away, but that I must go because that Alfie, The Abbot of Roscrea and is what Our Lady wants. She reminds me that Our Seamus prior to departure to South America, July 1953 Blessed Lady’s wishes must always come first.” Late on 15th July 1953, Alfie boarded a plane to Colombia.

Serving the Church in Central and Southern Indiana Since 1960 CriterionOnline.com January 18, 2013 Vol. LIII, No. 14 75¢ Partnerships, sustainability are key Hughes Submitted photo/Kent in Haiti’s earthquake recovery WASHINGTON (CNS)—Soon after a monstrous earthquake devastated much of Haiti three years ago, the mantra among Haitian government leaders and a good share of relief and development agencies was “build back Haiti better.” It was somewhat catchy, of course, and certainly demonstrative of the resiliency of a country battered all too often by Mother Nature. As the Jan. 12 anniversary of the quake came and went, the “build back” slogan has faded from most discussions, but the work of rebuilding—in reality, building—a country has moved ahead even if progress has been slow and difficult to measure. More troublesome is the continuing sense of frustration among Haitians— especially among the 360,000 who remain At 83, Teresa Moore smiles after fulfilling her lifelong dream of joining the Catholic Church during a Mass at St. Monica Parish in Indianapolis on Jan. 6. in tent camps, according to the International Moore is joined in the photo by, left, Anne Corcoran, parish pastoral associate, and Dabrice Bartet, Moore’s sponsor.
