  • A Letter to Pope Francis Concerning His Past, the Abysmal State of Papism, and a Plea to Return to Holy Orthodoxy
    A Letter to Pope Francis Concerning His Past, the Abysmal State of Papism, and a Plea to Return to Holy Orthodoxy The lengthy letter that follows was written by His Eminence, the Metropolitan of Piraeus, Seraphim, and His Eminence, the Metropolitan of Dryinoupolis, Andrew, both of the Church of Greece. It was sent to Pope Francis on April 10, 2014. The Orthodox Christian Information Center (OrthodoxInfo.com) assisted in editing the English translation. It was posted on OrthodoxInfo.com on Great and Holy Monday, April 14, 2014. The above title was added for the English version and did not appear in the Greek text. Metropolitan Seraphim is well known and loved in Greece for his defense of Orthodoxy, his strong stance against ecumenism, and for the philanthropic work carried out in his Metropolis (http://www.imp.gr/). His Metropolis is also well known for Greece’s first and best ecclesiastical radio station: http://www.pe912fm.com/. This radio station is one of the most important tools for Orthodox outreach in Greece. Metropolitan Seraphim was born in 1956 in Athens. He studied law and theology, receiving his master’s degree and his license to practice law. In 1980 he was tonsured a monk and ordained to the holy diaconate and the priesthood by His Beatitude Seraphim of blessed memory, Archbishop of Athens and All Greece. He served as the rector of various churches and as the head ecclesiastical judge for the Archdiocese of Athens (1983) and as the Secretary of the Synodal Court of the Church of Greece (1985-2000). In December of 2000 the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarch elected him as an auxiliary bishop of the Holy Archdiocese of Australia in which he served until 2002.

Speaking in French, the pope brought up sex abuse near the end of his talk, in a section devoted to bishops’ care of priests under their authority. “Like fathers, find the necessary time to welcome [your priests] and listen to them, every time they ask.

  • Counsels of Religion
    COUNSELS OF RELIGION Author: Imam Al-Haddad Number of Pages: 280 pages Published Date: 24 Jan 2011 Publisher: Fons Vitae, US Publication Country: Kentucky, United States Language: English ISBN: 9781891785405 DOWNLOAD: COUNSELS OF RELIGION These three matters, in themselves often innocent and not forbidden to the devout Christian , may yet, even when no kind of sin is involved, hold back the soul from its true aim and vocation, and delay it from becoming entirely conformed to the will of God. It is, therefore, the object of the three counsels of perfection to free the soul from these hindrances. The soul may indeed be saved and heaven attained without following the counsels; but that end will be reached more easily and with greater certainty , if the counsels be accepted and the soul does not wholly confine herself to doing that which is definitely commanded. On the other hand, there are, no doubt, individual cases in which it may be actually necessary for a person , owing to particular circumstances, to follow one or more of the counsels, and one may easily conceive a case in which the adoption of the religious life might seem, humanly speaking, the only way in which a particular soul could be saved. Such cases, however, are always of an exceptional character. As there are three great hindrances to the higher life, so also the counsels are three, one to oppose each. The love of riches is opposed by the counsel of poverty; the pleasures of the flesh, even the lawful pleasures of holy matrimony, are excluded by the counsel of chastity; while the desire for worldly power and honour is met by the counsel of holy obedience.

    The Parishes of Twenty-nineth Sunday in Ordinary Time October 18, 2020 Around 3,000 people showed up to his beatification at the Basilica of St. Francis in Assisi! In his homily for Carlo’s beatification, Cardinal Agostino Vallini had said, “He was an ordinary boy, simple, spontaneous, likeable 4 he loved nature and animals, he played football, he had many friends of his age, he was attracted by modern means of social communication, passionate about computer science, and, self- taught, he built websites to transmit the Gospel, to communicate values and beauty.” He was also a gamer! A friend recalls times they would get together to play games such as Halo, but his mom said that his clear favorites were Super Mario Brothers and Pokémon. Blessed Carlo had once said, “When we face the sun we get a tan ... but when we stand before Jesus in the Eucharist we become saints.” His body was on display for veneration from October 1-17. The annual celebration of his feast has been marked for October 12th. (source: ncregister.com) Shortly after his death, people had received miracles of healing through his intercession. Blessed Carlo Acutis, pray for us! Faith and Friends (Young Adults) All young adults are invited to join us next Thursday, October 22nd, for an opportunity for us to gather together in the faith and to lift one another up in intercessory prayer. We will be meeting at Hamlin Pub at 7 PM. Please come and join us for an opportunity of fellowship and prayer.

René Laurentin e affidato alla nostra Facoltà «Marianum». Salutiamo con riconoscenza Mons. René Laurentin, che con indomito coraggio e vigore giovanile, sfidando la notevole distanza che separa Evry da Roma, le difficoltà della vista e dell'udito, sfidando la vecchiezza carica di anni, ancora una volta è in mezzo a noi per comunicare solidarietà e incoraggiamento a tutti coloro che si impegnano nel promuovere lo studio e la ricerca mariologica e mariana. Caro Monsignore, un riconoscente grazie. Ancora una volta sono contento di attestare che la Sua presenza in mezzo a noi ravviva la speranza che la Mariologia porti vita e vita in abbondanza.

Transactions of the Burgon Society, 5 (2005), pages 36–41 The Question of Ecclesiastical Influences on French Academic Dress by Yves Mausen The talk given at the Burgon Society’s Congregation in October 2005 on which this paper is based was intended as a tribute to Professor Bruno Neveu, one of the few French scholars to take an interest in academic dress. He had been made a Fellow of the Society honoris causa only shortly before his untimely death in 2004. I had the privilege of inheriting the archives on his favourite topic which he had collected during his lifetime, and I found amongst the documents an additional folder containing material for a history of ecclesiastical dress. My initial idea was to connect this field of research with my own interest in medieval ceremonial and thus try to establish whether the church gown had influenced the university robe in France, as one might be led to think from the appearance of the latter.

    http://www.gendersexualityitaly.com g/s/i is an annual peer-reviewed journal which publishes research on gendered identities and the ways they intersect with and produce Italian politics, culture, and society by way of a variety of cultural productions, discourses, and practices spanning historical, social, and geopolitical boundaries. Title: Colonial Legacies in Family-Making and Family-Breaking: Carla Macoggi’s Memoirs as Semi-Autobiography Journal Issue: gender/sexuality/italy, 7 (2020) Author: Carla Cornette, Pennsylvania State University Publication date: February 2021 Publication info: gender/sexuality/italy, “Continuing Discussions” Permalink: https://www.gendersexualityitaly.com/13-colonial-legacies-family-making-and-family-breaking-carla- macoggis-memoirs Author Bio: Carla Cornette is an Assistant Teaching Professor of Italian at Pennsylvania State University and the faculty co-leader of Penn State’s study abroad program in Reggio Calabria. She holds a Ph.D. in Italian from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a minor in African Cultural Studies and Gender and Women’s Studies. Her dissertation project (2018) is entitled “Postcolonial Pathology in the Works of Italian Postcolonial Writers Carla Macoggi, Ubah Cristina Ali Farah, and Igiaba Scego” and interrogates the notion of depression in Italian postcolonial literature as a politically and socially induced phenomenon. She is currently preparing a monograph based on this study which argues that melancholic psycho-affective sequelae that manifest in Black diaspora women literary figures are the natural and expected consequence to continual subjection to multiple axes of oppression including race, gender, geography, and class, inequalities which have their origins in Italy’s colonial history. Abstract: Kkeywa: Storia di una bimba meticcia (2011) and La nemesi della rossa (2012) constitute the sequential memoirs of Carla Macoggi, Ethiopian-Italian author and attorney.
