BASIC COURSE On BASIC COURSE on Franciscan- Missionary Charism Loyalty and Betrayal: A History of the Franciscan Mission Lesson Unit 8 he documents of Vatican II, Pope Paul VI's Evangelii Nuntiandi, and Pope John Paul II's Redemptoris Missio have deeply affected the understanding of mission. Constant efforts are being made to clarify its purpose and T objectives, and to determine the most appropriate methods to carry it out. Go, Rebuild My Church: A Comprehen- sive Course on the Franciscan Mission Charism, provides a particular context to stimulate dialogue about the many dimensions of mission and the inevitable recognition of the equality, dignity and humanity of all persons. The course is unique, since it is genuinely inter-Franciscan and inter-cultural. An ongoing process for exchange among all members of the Franciscan Family from six continents provides for a creative meshing of the best in current theology, Franciscan research and pastoral practice. The vast and profound changes of present-day society make all the more urgent our search for a fuller understanding of humanity in the light of the Gospel and the Person of Jesus Christ. As Franciscans, with the world as our "cloister," we welcome this refreshing moment of intercultural dialogue. Fran- cis was the first among founders to situate the missionary dimension of the Gospel call clearly within his rule. This study reawakens us to the challenge and genuineness of Francis' message for our own times.

A monk preaches to Christians and Muslims. That changed, however, with the arrival of Brother Aegidius, who appar- ently led a whole group of brothers. He attacked the belief of the Muslims and violated thehonour ofthe prophet Mohammed. Then a man who was venerated as holy among the Muslims called out: "Unbelievers have just come to us. They want to condemn our prophet and the law that we have received from him. I thereforecall upon you to put to the swordthose men who arrived." A great riot broke out. The Christians who lived there realised the danger and feared for their lives. So they forced Aegidius and his companions to go back to the ship in which theyhad come. The broth- ers had no choice. They had to return to Italy without having achieved anything (According to the Life of Brother Aegidius).

The philosopher Raymond Llull was convinced that the truth of the Christian belief could be proved by logic. He therefore made this appeal: "We must put an end to the material war between Christians and Saracens, because so long as it lasts, neither side can be in those peaceful dialogues which certainly result in the tri- umph of the Cross" (L. Siekeniac). Way ahead of his time, in his book on "The Pagan and the Three Wise Men", he brought together the representa- tives of the three great religions so that they should arrive at a common conviction of faith.

    DePaul University From the SelectedWorks of John E Rybolt 2015 The ainS ts of the Vincentian Family John E Rybolt, DePaul University Available at: https://works.bepress.com/john_rybolt/74/ THE SAINTS OF THE VINCENTIAN FAMILY BY JOHN E. RYBOLT, C.M. (A conference prepared for the participants in CIF, Centre International de Formation, held in Paris, France; revised and updated.) INTRODUCTION The purpose of this week of the program is to be faithful to paragraph 50 of the Constitutions, which instructs us about our Vincentian Family. 50. We should cherish devotion to Saint Vincent and to the canonized and beatified members of the Vincentian Family. We should constantly return to the heritage of our Founder, expressed in his writings and in the tradition of the Congregation, that we may learn to love what he loved and practice what he taught. As you can see, we are really interested in just the first sentence of this paragraph. Nevertheless it tells us a great deal. We could approach this subject hagiographically: that is, in the worst sense of the term, to look at these saints and blesseds as the models of every Vincentian virtue, searching their lives for examples of these, marveling at them, and drawing out lesson for our personal daily living. You are certainly free to do so, and during these hours together, I will display several items of interest which could be read, as well as a bibliography. On the other hand, I am going to approach the subject historically, particularly by giving the historical context in which these confreres of ours lived and worked.

  • 1 UMILE FRATE Il Cardinale Guglielmo
    UMILE FRATE il cardinale Guglielmo Massaia e la cura dei corpi e degli spiriti “E voi, umile figlio di s. Francesco, il cui nome fecero glorioso e venerando le diuturne e immense fatiche sostenute fra barbare genti per la propagazione della fede, collo splendore della romana Porpora diffonderete piú viva la luce di quella vita apostolica, di cui foste nobilissimo esempio; mostrando al mondo, che lo disconosce, quanto bene possa meritare della vera civiltà anche un umile alunno del chiostro, animato dal soffio della carità di Gesú Cristo”. (Leone XIII al Massaia nel nominarlo cardinale) Questo grande missionario nacque a Piova d’Asti (oggi Piova Massaia in suo onore), il 18 giugno 1809. Fu battezzato con il nome di Lorenzo Antonio e frequentò come seminarista il Collegio Reale di Asti. Il 18 settembre 1826 indossó il saio cappuccino nella chiesa della Madonna di Campagna di Torino e prese il nome di Guglielmo. Venne ordinato sacerdote nel 1832. Ricoprì incarico di Cappellano dell’Ospizio Mauriziano di Torino ove apprese le nozioni di׳l medicina e chirurgia che poi applicò in Etiopia. Fu assistente spirituale del futuro Re Vittorio Emanuele II, Confessore del Cottolengo e dello scrittore Silvio Pellico. Nel 1846 Papa Gregorio XVI lo nominò Vicario Apostolico della popolazione etiopica dei Galla, per raggiungere la quale dovette risalire il Nilo ed attraversare il deserto travestito da mercante arabo. Lì passò, tra alterne vicende, 35 anni di missione. Papa Leone XIII lo promosse prima Arcivescovo e poi Cardinale nel 1884. Alla morte di Massaia, avvenuta a San Giorgio a Cremano (Napoli) il 6 agosto 1889, lo stesso Pontefice esclamò: “È morto un Santo!”.

Statue of Father Jordan in the courtyard of the convent at Steinfeld (D). Bronze, cast from an original by Ferdinand Seeboeck of 1930/31. 5. GURTWEIL, the origin of the name goes back to a Merovingian-Frankish settlement: GURTWILA (CURTVILLA) - curtis - a large estate (at the place of the castle) - villa, villare - a small hamlet (North to the estate a few houses, the villa) The first written document regarding GURTWILA dates from 873. It testifies to the fact that Count Adibreht made Gurtweil over to the Monastery of Rheinau; about 20 years later, it belongs to the Monastery of St. Gallen (CH); by the end of the 12th century St. Gallen had lost its rights over Gurtweil in favour of 'secular' Lords. In 1646 the property was sold to the Monastery of St. Blasien. With the secularization and the suppression of the Monastery, the area fell to Baden in 1807, and much of the property was sold to individuals. (cf. LEO BERINGER, Geschichte des Dorfes Gurtweil, 1960, S. 25f) 6. The house was owned by the Jordan family from 1842-1894. After 1878, it was built up with bricks, the windows on the first floor and the outside stairway were added, and the roof was covered with tiles. Because of debts, Father Jordan's brother Martin had to sell it in auction in 1894. Josepha Griesser re-sold it to Leo Müller already in 1895. (cf. DSS XIII, p.

Devotion to St. Justin de Jacobis in Eritrea1 and Ethiopia2 By Iyob Ghebresellasie, C.M. Province of Eritrea In speaking about devotion to St. Justin I should say in advance that this refers in a special way to the Catholics in Eritrea and in some areas of Ethiopia. As is well known, St. Justin's apostolate was mainly in the country which at one time was known as Abyssinia, but which today is two countries, Eritrea and Ethiopia. 1. Christianity before St. Justin's evangelization The first Christian seed was planted along the Eritrean coast in the first century,3 and in time, by crossing the Eritrean plateau, it spread into northern Ethiopia. From the beginning of the fourth century until the 18th, before St.

Justin De Jacobis: the Art of Dialogue by Professor Yaqob Beyené* Justin De Jacobis, the missionary, did not head off to an African country to preach the Gospel to the pagans, but went into a Christian country to unite the Christians of the African country with the Christians of Rome. I would like, therefore, first of all to say a few introductory words on Ethiopia, this African country of the Christian-Orthodox religion. Ethiopia is the country formerly known in the West by the name Abyssinia, the name also used by Justin in his diary. Then, later on, precisely because of the influence of Christianity, it became known under the name Ethiopia.1 It is an African country, but we are dealing with a country with a history completely different from that of the other countries of Africa.

  • “This I Want You to Be” Missionary Spirituality and Formation
    GIUSEPPE ALLAMANO “This I Want You To Be” Missionary Spirituality and Formation EMI EDITRICE MISSIONARIA ITALIANA Edited by: Father Francesco Pavese IMC and Sister Angeles Mantineo MC This is the English translation of the book “Così vi voglio” published by EMI 2007 “This is what I want you to be: generous, strong and constant in your vocation” Giuseppe Allamano DEDICATION Father Aquiléo Fiorentini IMC Superior General Sister Gabriella Bono MC Superior General It is with joy and gratitude that we present this new volume on the missionary spirituality and education of our Founder, Blessed Joseph Allamano. We, the men and women missionaries of the Consolata, are privileged to possess – in abundance – the words of our Father. Our resources are rich and authentic. We have received this legacy from those who were personally trained by the Founder and we guard this treasure zealously. For the most part the legacy consists of those Sunday conferences and conversations that reflect his genuine thought. Our early brothers and sisters had the good fortune to hear these words from his own lips; they carefully recorded and passed them on to us. Thanks to those who went before us we who read these words today feel he is still speaking to us. The Founder’s conferences have been published in six volumes (three addressed to men missionaries and three to women missionaries). The six volumes include the handwritten notes Allamano prepared weekly as well as his listeners’ notes. To this we would add the great work to which Father Lorenzo Sales devoted his intellect and heart: “La Vita Spirituale” – the organized exposition of the Founder’s thought as found in the Sunday conferences he delivered to missionaries over a period of twenty-four years.
