Serving Seniors in Pandemic Times GLENDA MEEKINS of the Florida Catholic Staff FACEBOOK @FLORIDACATHOLIC | Nov. 6-12, 2020 FLORIDACatholic ORLANDO DIOCESE Serving seniors in pandemic times GLENDA MEEKINS of the Florida Catholic staff LAKELAND | Among the tenets of Catholic Social Teach- ings is to care for the poor and vulnerable. The COVID-19 pandemic has made the elderly more vulnerable than ever. Catholic Charities of Central Florida Senior Services staff are working to comfort the lonely and promote healthy living. “We have been busy getting creative to make sure our se- niors don’t fall prey to the negative results of isolation during this pandemic when we are asking them to stay safe at home,” said Barbara Cage, Lakeland Activity Center for Seniors’ pro- gram manager. The center closed March 13, 2020, and the oth- er 12 mobile senior center sites closed soon after. To maintain contact with seniors, Catholic Charities works with six core S.O.U.L. (Senior Organizations Uniting Locally) partners to meet the needs of the community. At first, Cage acknowledged it was about addressing urgent needs. Staff would deliver much needed supplies from the Catholic Charities Agape Mission Market directly to seniors. A $10,000 grant helped assist adults age 60 and above who were still working, to help pay rent or mortgage and utilities. “(The funds) kept them in their homes and stabilized them while they scrambled to replace lost income,” Cage said. “We could have used 10 times that amount, but we were glad we were able to help some.” Senior services also helped connect several seniors experi- encing severe stress and/or depression to mental health ser- vices provided by Catholic Charities Behavioral Health pro- fessionals over the phone.

  • Pope Benedict XVI: the Final Act
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Pope Benedict XVI: The Final Act NANDAGOPAL R MENON Vol. 48, Issue No. 08, 23 Feb, 2013 Nandagopal R. Menon is a research scholar at the Department of Cultural Anthropology of Utrecht University in the Netherlands. After an eight-year reign overshadowed by controversies, scandals and further alienation of the Church from the modern world, Pope Benedict XVI wins plaudits with the precedent- shattering example of his resignation. The 2010 BBC 2 documentary, Trials of the Pope, has a revealing conversation between the producer and a close family friend of Benedict XVI and his brother Georg Ratzinger. Margarete Ricardi spoke about the Pope’s loneliness in Rome and how he frequently called his brother in Germany, and invited friends to visit him at the Vatican. Perhaps these remarks are helpful in understanding Benedict XVI and his close to eight years at the helm of the Catholic Church. It was not his first stint in Rome. He had spent twenty four years as the Church’s chief doctrinal enforcer before he took up the Chair of St. Peter. But his brilliance as a theologian, his genuine pious humility and deep faith in the centuries-old traditions of the Church did not prepare him for the post he took up in 2005. He tried to be a “teaching Pope” like his predecessor, John Paul II, and avoided getting too involved in the nitty-gritty of Church administration and management. The flamboyant John Paul II could still carry the day with his charisma and love for pageantry. But Benedict XVI is no John Paul II.

  • En Kirke I Krise
    En kirke i krise - en analyse af hvilken effekt den danske katolske kirkes krisekommunikation har haft på de danske katolikker i løbet af foråret 2010. Udarbejdet af: Michal Krzysztof Tempczyk Vejleder: Thomas Martin Møller Burø, Institut for Internationale Kultur- og Kommunikationsstudier Antal NS: 80 Typeenheder: 143.356 Cand.ling.merc. CBS, juni 2011. Executive summary – The Catholic crisis Several times the Catholic Church has been subject to large scale global media attention. A repeating theme of the media coverage has been sexual abuse of children within Catholic institutions. In March 2010 the Danish Catholic Church (DCC) found itself in the eye of the hurricane, as the Danish Catholic Bishop Czeslaw Kozon stated that the Church was aware of several assault cases in Denmark, but was not obligated to neither investigate them nor report them to the police. Subsequently the Bishop was strongly criticised by various legal experts for the lack of action in the specific cases. This resulted in the media coverage reaching a significant level, and new cases of child abuse within the DCC quickly became the top stories of the Danish press. The following two months, the DCC initiated several actions as an attempt to tackle the criticism. The fact that this crisis, in its basic elements, was an ongoing communication process, makes it a very interesting field of study. An aspect of the crisis, which was given very limited attention by the media, is how the crisis and the DCC’s communicative efforts affected the Danish Catholics. Thus, the objective of this thesis is to investigate the context and aspects of the crisis, the communication produced by the DCC during this period and finally, how it affected the Danish Catholics.

  • Retired Pope Benedict Follows His Brother’S Funeral Virtually
    Retired Pope Benedict follows his brother’s funeral virtually REGENSBURG, Germany (CNS) — Retired Pope Benedict XVI followed the funeral of his brother, Georg Ratzinger, via livestreaming, reported the German Catholic news agency KNA. Bishop Rudolf Voderholzer of Regensburg said Pope Benedict, 93, was connected to the Mass taking place for his older brother July 8 in the Regensburg Cathedral. Msgr. Georg Ratzinger died on July 1 at age 96. During the Mass, the Regensburg bishop recalled the surprise June 18-22 visit Pope Benedict paid to the sickbed of his dying brother. “This sign of humanity touched many people. So all the more do we share in your mourning,” he said in words addressed to the retired pope. The Vatican newspaper and KNA reported that alongside Bishop Voderholzer at the altar was Pope Benedict’s private secretary, Archbishop Georg Ganswein, and the pope’s ambassador to Germany, Archbishop Nikola Eterovic. Among other participants were the former Regensburg bishop, Cardinal Gerhard Muller, and Munich Cardinal Reinhard Marx. The retired pope had written to his deceased brother a letter, which was read out loud at the ceremony by Archbishop Ganswein. Remembering his “dear brother, Georg,” Pope Benedict wrote, “May God reward you for everything you have done, have suffered and have given me.” The retired pope said his brother “received and understood his vocation to the priesthood as a musical vocation at the same time.” He recalled his brother’s “cheerfulness, his humor and his joy for the good gifts of creation.” He also noted that his brother came to accept living with almost total blindness for 20 years.

  • After New Reports on German Choir Abuses, Bishop Vows to Boost Prevention
    After new reports on German choir abuses, bishop vows to boost prevention WARSAW, Poland (CNS) — A German bishop has vowed to intensify “preventive measures” after two church-sponsored reports confirmed systemic violence and abuse at his diocese’s cathedral schools between 1945 and 1995, including 30 years when their famous choir was run by Monsignor Georg Ratzinger, brother of retired Pope Benedict XVI. “The goal (of the reports), using methods and mechanisms of social psychology, was to identify factors which encouraged these cases,” said Bishop Rudolf Voderholzer of Regensburg. “The foremost aim now is to ensure justice and satisfaction to all those who were allowed to suffer, to demonstrate our sorrow and learn for the sake of future generations.” The bishop spoke at the July 22 presentation of the reports into mistreatment of pupils at several schools — including two boarding schools — that trained members of the southern diocese’s prestigious Domspatzen choir, founded in the 10th century. Bishop Voderholzer said violence and sexual abuse by priests and church staffers had represented his “most depressing experience” as a bishop and “deeply affected many people” far beyond Regensburg. He said he counted on the latest reports to spur “ever-more-effective and sustainable preventive measures.” For years, there had been reports and knowledge of abuse at the schools, but in 2010, the incidents became more publicly known. In July 2017, the diocese released a 440-page church-commissioned report confirming that 547 choir members had suffered physical and emotional abuse over a half-century. It said 67 had suffered sexual violence, but said the real number could be closer to 700, since many victims had declined to come forward during the two-year inquiry.

  • Saturday 29 September, 2012, Saint Mary of Victories Church. St Louis
    Saturday 29 September, 2012, Saint Mary of Victories Church. St Louis MO Public Lecture BENEDICT XVI AND THE LITURGY: VISION, TEACHING, ACTION Most Rev. Peter J. Elliott* In the dark years leading up to the Second World War, a German boy discovered the wondrous world of Catholic liturgy. Worshipping with his family in a Bavarian parish influenced by the Liturgical Movement, carefully following his people’s missal,1 Joseph Ratzinger is now Pope Benedict XVI. In his autobiography, Milestones, Memoirs 1927-1977, he expressed his life-long love of the liturgy. “Naturally the child I then was did not grasp every aspect of this, but I started down the road of the liturgy, and this became a continuous process of growth into a grand reality transcending all particular individuals and generations, a reality that became an occasion for me of ever-new amazement and discovery. The incredible reality of the Catholic liturgy has accompanied me through all phases of life, and so I shall have to speak of it time and again.” 2 1. HIS VISION The Hermeneutic of Continuity His life story helps us see why, both as cardinal and Pope, his vision of worship has been guided by the same principle that informs his theology within the ressourcement school of thought - the hermeneutic of continuity. The word “hermeneutic” means a way of interpreting something. The hermeneutic of continuity means that we should interpret the Second Vatican Council as part of the continuous growth of the living tradition of the Church, that is, only in continuity with all other Councils, not as a sharp break with the past.

  • Pope Benedict Travels to Germany to Visit His Ailing Brother
    Pope Benedict travels to Germany to visit his ailing brother Retired Pope Benedict XVI, who is 93 years old, travelled to Germany to visit his ailing older brother, Msgr. Georg Ratzinger, who is 96. The Vatican press office confirmed that Pope Benedict went to Germany June 18 to visit his brother. “The pope emeritus is now in the city of Regensburg, where he will spend the time necessary,” said Matteo Bruni, director of the Vatican press office. Pope Benedict was accompanied by his personal secretary, Archbishop Georg Ganswein, one of the consecrated laywomen who cares for him and his household, a doctor, a nurse and the vice commander of the Vatican gendarme corps, Bruni said. The two brothers, who were ordained to the priesthood together in 1951, have always been close. While his brother was pope and even after he stepped down from the papacy, Msgr. Ratzinger would come to the Vatican to spend Christmas and a summer holiday with his brother. The two also had a sister, Maria, who died in 1991. While Father Joseph Ratzinger pursued advanced theology studies, served as a professor and an archbishop before moving to the Vatican as prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and then as pope, Msgr. Ratzinger became famous as director of the renowned Regensburg boys’ choir from 1964 to 1994, when he retired. A statement posted on the website of the Diocese of Regensburg said, “It may be the last time that the two brothers, Georg and Joseph Ratzinger, see each other in this world,” so it asked people “to leave this deeply personal encounter private.” The diocese said there would be no “photos, public appearances or meetings” beyond the private encounters of the two brothers.
