  • John Paul II G Uardian of the R Edeemer a Nniversary Edition
    Church Documents Redeemer of the Edition Anniversary Guardian A letter from the Vicar of Christ to the Church . Where do you turn when life seems like one leap of faith after another? Go to Joseph! The man chosen by God to be spouse of the Virgin Mary and to care for Jesus as a father, Saint Joseph responded to life’s challenges with preeminent faith. He was quick to love and to act on that love. Originally published on the solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Guardian of the Redeemer (Redemptoris Custos) presents Joseph as a model of faith for fathers, husbands, and each baptized person called to cherish the presence of Christ in our lives. Now, twenty- five years later, the Holy Father’s words invite us to turn once again to Saint Joseph as we follow Christ today. May Saint Joseph become for all of us an exceptional teacher in the service of Christ’s saving mission, a mission which is the responsibility of each and every member of the Church: husbands and wives, parents, those who live by the work of their hands or by any other kind of work, those called to the contemplative life, and those called to the apostolate. — Saint John Paul II This special Anniversary Edition includes the full text of the original document plus new commentary that will guide you through this John Paul II Paul John important apostolic exhortation. Drawing on his extensive research and personal experience of family life, Dr. Joseph Atkinson provides insightful commentary that can be used for study and reflection either privately or in groups.

  • Analysis of the Religious Practices of Hindus at Saint Joseph's Oratory
    UNIVERSITÉ DE MONTRÉAL Analysis of the Religious Practices of Hindus at Saint Joseph’s Oratory Transmission of Christian Faith after the Second Vatican Council Par John Jomon Kalladanthiyil Faculté des arts et des sciences Institut d’études religieuses Thèse présentée en vue de l’obtention du grade de Ph. D. en Théologie pratique Mars 2017 © Jomon Kalladanthiyil, 2017 Résumé Dès le début du christianisme, la transmission de la foi chrétienne constitue la mission essentielle de l’Église. Dans un contexte pluri-religieux et multiculturel, le concile Vatican II a reconnu l’importance d’ouvrir la porte de l’Église à tous. Basile Moreau (1799 – 1873), le fondateur de la congrégation de Sainte-Croix, insistait sur le fait que les membres de sa communauté soient des éducateurs à la foi chrétienne et il a envoyé des missionnaires au Québec dès la fondation de sa communauté (1837). Pour ces derniers, parmi d’autres engagements pastoraux, l’Oratoire Saint-Joseph du Mont-Royal, fondé par Alfred Bessette, le frère André (1845 – 1937), est devenu l’endroit privilégié pour la transmission de la foi chrétienne, même après la Révolution tranquille des années 1960. L’Oratoire Saint-Joseph accueille des milliers d’immigrants du monde entier chaque année et parmi eux beaucoup d’hindous. Pour beaucoup d’entre eux, l’Oratoire devient un second foyer où ils passent du temps en prière et trouvent la paix. Certains d’entre eux ont l’expérience de la guérison et des miracles. Le partage de l’espace sacré avec les hindous est un phénomène nouveau à l’Oratoire.

  • Oblates of St. Joseph
    An Initiative of Centro Internazionale Giuseppino-Marellian Published in 2020 In celebration of commemorating the 130 years of Quamquam Pluries and the 30 years of Redemptoris Custos FOREWOR D n January 23, 2019, in reference to Resolution 5 of the XVII General Chapter, the Superior General announced the celebration of a Year of St. Joseph in our Congregation. It was Oofficially inaugurated on March 19, 2019, on the Solemnity of St. Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary. There were some circumstances, such us the 30th anniversary of the Apostolic Exhortation Redemptoris Custos by St. John Paul II, the 130th anniversary of the Encyclical Quamquampluries by Pope Leo XIII and the 150 years since the Decree Quemadmodum Deus by which Pope Pius IX proclaimed St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church, which prompted us to this initiative. But the main reason behind the announcement was to provide us with an opportunity to go to the roots of our spirituality in the light of the sacred Scripture and of the teaching of the Magisterium of the Church. The words of Pope Francis, during the audience given to the Chapter Fathers on August 31, were inspiring and encouraging for deepening our study and reflection on the figure of St. Joseph. Some of us may feel that we really haven’t been able to celebrate it as we wanted to due to the pandemic. May be this is how St. Joseph wants it because, at least when it comes to the Gospel accounts, he accepted with faith all the improvisations by surrendering his own plans to the hands of God.
