  • Pope Names South Korea Bishop Prefect for Clergy
    Pope names South Korea bishop prefect for clergy VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Pope Francis has appointed South Korean Bishop Lazarus You Heung-sik of Daejeon as the new prefect of the Vatican Congregation for Clergy. The Vatican made the announcement June 11, adding that the outgoing prefect, Italian Cardinal Beniamino Stella, 79, would remain at the congregation until the new prefect could assume his role. The new prefect has also been made an archbishop, the Vatican added. Born Nov. 17, 1951, in Nonsan, Archbishop You studied in Seoul and in Rome, where he received his doctorate in dogmatic theology at the Pontifical Lateran University. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1979 and served in a variety of positions in the Diocese of Daejeon, including spiritual director, professor and finally president of the Catholic University of Daejeon. St. John Paul II named him coadjutor bishop of Daejeon in 2003 and he became head of the diocese in 2005. Within the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Korea, he has been a member of many commissions, including those for mission and pastoral care, social affairs, and the pastoral care of migrants and foreign residents. He was president of the bishops’ committee for Caritas Korea from 2004 to 2008. He has been a member of the conference’s Commission for Clergy and Religious since 2005 and had been a member of the Pontifical Council for “Cor Unum” until it was absorbed by the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development in 2017. Archbishop You hosted events held in Daejeon as part of the Sixth Asian Youth Day, sponsored by the Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences, and attended by Pope Francis in 2014.

  • 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.

  • Charity, Patience and Tenderness Are Very Beautiful Gifts. If You Have Them, You Want to Share Them with Others
    GIFT of TIME Charity, patience and tenderness are very beautiful gifts. If you have them, you want to share them with others. - Pope Francis ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT GIFT of TIME Caritas Australia The Catholic Agency for International Aid and Development Dorothy is a long-time supporter of Caritas Australia. Inspired by her faith and passion for social justice, Dorothy speaks about why she has decided to place Caritas in her Will. I first learned about Caritas when I was a child at school and vividly recall collecting coins for the Project Compassion Box. Giving to Caritas Australia has made me a much Photo: Sudan, Caritas Internationalis happier person. I feel empowered, knowing that we’re doing something for the most marginalised. The sense of concern that I sometimes feel thinking “Giving to Caritas about the poverty and suffering in the world today, has been taken away by knowing where my money is going Australia has made me a and that it’s going to a good cause. The last time I get to speak to people most important in much happier person” my life will be through my Will. I have great faith in Caritas Australia’s ability to end poverty and uphold people’s dignity. Caritas doesn’t tell its partners what to do but walks alongside them. There are so many charities out there, but I know that with Caritas, I’m giving in the right way, to a place that has good governance, a good development approach and spends minimally on administration. I can recommend Caritas wholeheartedly. 2 The Catholic Weekly GIFT of TIME 2020-2021 Leaving a Legacy of Love.

    La Santa Sede DISCURSO DEL SANTO PADRE BENEDICTO XVI A LOS ARZOBISPOS METROPOLITANOS Sala Pablo VI Sábado 30 de junio de 2007 Queridos hermanos y hermanas: Me alegra acogeros a todos vosotros, familiares y amigos de los arzobispos metropolitanos a los que tuve la alegría de imponer el palio ayer en la basílica vaticana, durante una solemne celebración en la que recordamos a los apóstoles san Pedro y san Pablo. Nuestro encuentro quiere ser, en cierto modo, la prolongación del intenso clima de comunión eclesial que vivimos ayer. En efecto, la diversa procedencia de los arzobispos metropolitanos expresa bien la universalidad de la Iglesia, cuyos miembros, en todas las partes de la tierra, anuncian el Evangelio en distintas lenguas y profesan la única fe de los Apóstoles, que nunca ha cambiado. Os saludo cordialmente a cada uno de vosotros, venerados y estimados hermanos metropolitanos, y juntamente con vosotros saludo a los fieles que os han acompañado en vuestra peregrinación a la tumba de los Apóstoles. Envío, además, un saludo afectuoso también a vuestras comunidades diocesanas de procedencia. Dirijo mi saludo, en primer lugar, a vosotros, queridos pastores de la Iglesia que está en Italia. Lo saludo a usted, monseñor Angelo Bagnasco, al que he llamado a suceder al cardenal Tarcisio Bertone, mi secretario de Estado, como arzobispo de Génova, y a presidir la Conferencia episcopal italiana. Lo saludo a usted, monseñor Calogero La Piana, arzobispo de Mesina-Lípari- Santa Lucía del Mela; y a usted, monseñor Paolo Romeo, arzobispo de Palermo. Jesús, el buen Pastor, os ayude, en vuestro ministerio episcopal, a edificar en la caridad las comunidades diocesanas encomendadas a vuestra solicitud pastoral, ayudándolas a ser siempre Iglesias vivas, llenas del dinamismo de la fe y de espíritu misionero.

Como tal, es el jefe de Papa de la Iglesia católica Estado y el octavo soberano de la Ciudad del Vaticano. 13 de marzo de 2013 Tras la histórica renuncia de Benedicto XVI al cargo papal, fue elegido el 13 de marzo de 2013 en la quinta votación efectuada durante el segundo día de cónclave.
