  • OFFICERS' MANUAL of the CATHOLIC WAR VETERANS of The
    OFFICERS’ MANUAL of the CATHOLIC WAR VETERANS of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA “FOR GOD . FOR COUNTRY . FOR HOME” Revised January 1997 CHARTERED BY CONGRESS 17 AUGUST 1984 2 PREFACE. You learn to lead only by leading. In Catholic War Veteran units throughout the United States, there are many diversified types of activity in which members serve as leaders. This is the firing line. Leadership becomes most effective when it is motivated by an inspiring ideal and when it acts on good principles of organization and authority. The adequate management of the affairs and activities of the organization depends on a number of common principles of organization and authority. To adhere to these principles is to assure efficient, successful administration. To acquire knowledge of good principles of organization and authority and to apply them wisely to particular conditions and situations is the obligation of all officers in their responsibility to the membership and anyone whom they represent and serve. The purpose of this Officers’ Manual is to present a number of sound principles and methods of organization and command, which it is hoped will assist officers to develop leadership. Fundamentally, the strength of your leadership will lie: 1. In the understanding of the ideals and ideas, the purpose and procedure of Catholic War Veterans, and 2. In the cooperation with the programs of all higher echelons. Ultimately, one can only learn to lead by leading. This Officers’ Manual is meant as a guide, use it! 4 PRINCIPLES OF ORGANIZATION Desirable Qualities The Catholic War Veterans of the United States of America is a living thing.

  • Gathering of Discalced Carmelite Nuns in the Teresianum
    337 10.2018 Gathering of Discalced Carmelite nuns in the Teresianum ore than thirty Discalced Carmelite nuns in charge of formation and superiors of their communities met between 7th-13th September last in the Teresianum Min Rome. During the encounter, the nuns who took part at- tended two courses on the subject of the formation of modern generations of Carmelites. The course on the Teresian perspec- tive was given by Fr. Giuseppe Pozzobon and the one from the perspective of St. John of the Cross by Fr. Iain Matthew, which gave way to an exchange of opinions and approaches to the formation of candidates in the feminine Teresian Carmel. The gathering, organised by the Federation ‘Mater Carmeli’ of Italy, was supported by the presence of the association ‘Regina Pacis’, led by their President. The sisters were also able to inform themselves about some of the services which the faculty offers communities, such as the online diploma course in Theology, as well as the library, which the nuns visited accompanied by Fr. Ciro. Thus they will be able to benefit from the resources available on the internet.

  • Greenville, South Carolina
    St. Mary’s Catholic Church @ @ @ @ @ Greenville, South Carolina 17 April 2016 Dear Friends in Christ, “I am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” The Fourth Sunday of Easter is also known as Good Shepherd Sunday because of the Scripture readings and Mass prayers appointed for this day in the sacred liturgy. The Latin word for shepherd is pastor, and this reveals why the Church also asks us to pray for more priests on Good Shepherd Sunday. The call to the priesthood comes from God, and the Lord has promised always to provide shepherds for his people. Through the Prophet Jeremiah, the Lord promised Israel: “I will give you shepherds after my own heart.” (Jeremiah 3.15) But he also asks us to seek the gift of pastors in prayer: “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” (Matthew 9.37-38) In the “developing” world - Africa, South America, and Oceania - the number of young men offering themselves for priestly formation is on the rise, in some cases a dramatic rise, but in the “developed” world – Europe and North America – this is not the case. It is strange but true that peace and prosperity seem to make it more difficult to hear the voice of God than do poverty and strife, and one reason for the difference, I think, is that those who live in peace and prosperity also live under the illusion of self-sufficiency. Young men are surely being called to the priesthood in sufficient numbers even in the First World, but too many of those called are afraid to hear and heed the voice of God.

  • Springs of Carmel
    THE SPRINGS OF CARMEL Phase I Formation Lesson 9 Required Reading By Peter Slattery Elijah Carmelites see themselves as sons and daughters of the prophet Elijah. Because they were hermit-pilgrims living a life of silence and prayer on Mount Carmel, they felt a close association with Elijah. They did not just pluck this association out of the air. The desert fathers always saw John the Baptist and Elijah as models for hermits and monks. However, Mount Carmel was a holy place because Elijah, the Tishbite, had done great things for God there. It is not surprising then that the Latin hermits who settled on Mount Carmel took Elijah as a model to imitate. Jacques de Vitry, the Bishop of Acre from 1216-1228, described, “the hermits on Mount Carmel as leading solitary lives in imitation of the holy anchorite, Elijah, where like bees of the Lord, they laid up sweet spiritual honey in little comb-like cells.” The Fathers of the Church saw religious life as a response to a Gospel call. Since they reasoned that the New Testament is foreshadowed in the Old Testament, therefore, there should be types of the monastic life in the Old Testament. Thus, the Fathers saw Elijah as such a type. Some of the early Fathers, for example Justin and Irenaeus, offer Elijah as a model for the perfect life. Origen cites Elijah as a proof of the efficacy of prayer, while Athanasius, in his Life of Anthony, recalls the saying of the Father of religious life that all who make profession of the solitary life must take the great Elijah as their model and see in his life what their lives must be.

  • At the Fountain of Elijah
    AT THE FOUNTAIN OF ELIJAH Phase I Formation Lesson 9 Required Reading By Wilfrid McGreal, O.Carm Elijah and Mary—Search for Identity The move to Europe and the rapid expansion of the Order in the second half of the thirteenth century led to a search for identity among the younger Carmelites. What could they say to people about their origins when they were unable to specify a date of foundation or point to a founder like Francis or Dominic? The first recorded attempt to answer the questions about Carmelite origins came in the opening lines of the Constitutions of the Order drawn up at the General Chapter held in London in 1281. The answer is known as the Rubrica Prima: We declare, bearing testimony to the truth, that from the time when the prophets of Elijah and Elisha dwelt devoutly on Mount Carmel, holy Fathers both of the Old and New Testament, whom the contemplation of heavenly things drew to the solitude of the same mountain, have without doubt led praiseworthy lives there by the fountain of Elijah in holy penitence unceasingly and successfully maintained. It was these same successors whom Albert the patriarch of Jerusalem in the time of Innocent III united into a community, writing a rule for them which Pope Honorius, the successor of the same Innocent, and many of their successors, approving this Order, most devoutly confirmed by their charters. In the profession of this rule, we, their followers, serve the Lord in diverse parts of the world, even to the present day.1 As Joachim Smet observes in his history of the Carmelites, this was the seed from which the tradition about Elijah was to grow.
