  • In Defense of the Development of Augustine's Doctrine of Grace By
    In Defense of the Development of Augustine’s Doctrine of Grace by Laban Omondi Agisa Submitted to the faculty of the School of Theology of the University of the South in Partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Sacred Theology January 2020 Sewanee, Tennessee Approved ____________________________ _______________ Adviser Date ____________________________ _______________ Second Adviser Date 2 DECLARATION I declare that this is my original work and has not been presented in any other institution for consideration of any certification. This work has been complemented by sources duly acknowledged and cited using Chicago Manual Style. Signature Date 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT My study of theology was initiated in 2009 by the then Provost of St. Stephens Cathedral, Nairobi, the late Ven. Canon John Ndung’u who was a great encouragement to me. This was further made possible through my bishop the Rt. Rev. Joel Waweru and the Rev. Geoffrey Okapisi who were sources of inspiration. My studies at Carlile College (Church Army Africa) and St. Paul’s University laid a strong theological foundation and I appreciate among others the influence of the Rev. Dr. John Kiboi who introduced me to Philosophy, Systematic Theology, Ethics, and African Christian Theology that eventually became the foundation for my studies at the University of the South. I also appreciate the encouragement of my lecturers Mrs. Tabitha Waweru and Dr. Scholarstica Githinji during my Study of Education at Kenya Technical Trainers College and at Daystar University respectively. My interest in this topic came as a result of many sittings with two professors at the University of the South, Dr.

  • February – 2020
    FEBRUARY – 2020 1. How happy we are! I assure you dear Mother, God gives special graces to the devoted sisters and missionaries, He has called to these distant missions. We sense his holy Presence and interior peace and joy that in a wonderful way dispels every fear. Our sisters here are holy…We are all united in the bonds of perfect charity… How happy our little community is since all of us have the happiness of receiving Holy Communion every day. 2. If you only knew the heat of India is like! We are obliged to bathe daily in cold water. We are drenched with incessant perspiration…there are terrible storms, and sometimes frightful thunder and lightning. … we will have incessant and constant rain for four months. Well, that is the climate we have! But we also have blessings which we do not have in all our houses – Primarily, the good God, and now, benediction thrice a week… we are still poor except that it has the Treasure of Treasures and that is the main thing. 3. If India is torture for some, I tell you that for me I find it a Paradise – I shall willingly live and die here. Our Lord is so near; one feels that he needs so to say, persons to work for Him to win souls. The zeal of Prophet Elijah and that of missionaries like St. Francis Xavier fills me with ardent desire to cease the opportunity to bring people to the Lord and to save souls. 4. If you knew what a feast for us on the days when we have the Blessed Sacrament exposed the whole day in our dear little chapel! It seems to be paradise …It is so conducive to devotion and recollection and our sisters are so inflamed with love of this Eucharistic Lord.

  • THE POLITICS of the FALL in ST. AUGUSTINE of HIPPO by Michael
    THE POLITICS OF THE FALL IN ST. AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO By Michael T. Giles A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Political Science—Doctor of Philosophy 2020 ABSTRACT THE POLITICS OF THE FALL IN ST. AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO By Michael T. Giles This dissertation examines the thought of St. Augustine of Hippo, arguing for the importance of “the fall” of mankind for contemporary political life. Augustine believes that human nature was shaped by a cataclysmic fall from grace. His influential interpretation of the Biblical story is well-known, and yet the political features of this account have not been subjected to a systematic study. This work aims to remedy this shortcoming by wrestling with Augustine’s presentation of the fall across a wide variety of political concerns. The dissertation proceeds in four substantive chapters, each of which deals with a different sphere of human endeavor or hope. Chapter one considers Augustine’s account of work before and after the fall, and compares his view with the more contemporary and secular ideas of Karl Marx. The second chapter analyzes the effect of the fall on human sociality. It makes the case that Augustine sees a duality in mankind’s originally social nature. In the third chapter, I contend that Augustine sees the basic political problems of desire and mortality as dominating the life of mankind as a fallen creature. It is the fall that transforms these things into problems for us. Finally, the fourth chapter gives an original account of Augustine’s treatment of glory-seeking.

  • The Apostolic Carmel Karnataka Province
    THE APOSTOLIC CARMEL KARNATAKA PROVINCE CHARISM: ‘God Alone suffices’ All that is beautiful and to be cherished in the Apostolic Carmel is summed up in Mary, Queen of Carmel ... whose hidden presence with us as in the early Church invites and encourages us to efface ourselves in service in the Church, so that more and more the world will come to know that God alone suffices. Our Lady of Mount Carmel is the Patron of the Congregation. CARMEL - A CALL TO PRAYER To enter the Apostolic Carmel is to enjoy the heritage of Carmel firmly rooted in Prayer; to be drawn to seek God above all things as the single purpose of our lives. Through Prayer and Contemplation, God invites us to receive His message and offers us divine strength to bring His Word to effect in our lives from moment to moment. As we grow in prayer, we become increasingly conscious of our insufficiency and come to the realization that GOD ALONE SUFFICES. A CARMEL FOR THE MISSIONS Apostolic Carmelites reach out in a unique fashion as "contemplatives in action". This is our Mission: TO MAKE CHRIST THE CENTRE OF ALL CULTURES and in doing so - to live a truly fraternal life with the sisters of the Congregation and with all men and women of all nations and cultures; God's overflowing love fills us with prophetic zeal to share this love with all; receiving even as we give it through education and other works of mercy and charity. Today our work continues to flower and bear fruit in convents across the globe - in India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Africa and Italy.

  • The Life of Mother Veronica 150 YEARS of the ESTABLISHMENT of the APOSTOLIC CARMEL in INDIA
    The Life of Mother Veronica 150 YEARS OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE APOSTOLIC CARMEL IN INDIA Venerable Mother Veronica was born at Constantinople, on 1st October, 1823. Her father was Henry Daniel Leeves and mother was Marina Haultain,. She had four siblings.The eldest in the family was her brother Henry; she was the second child, followed by three sisters Mary Ann, Emilie and Catherine. Sophie was brought up in a deeply pious family that appreciated and nurtured values like truth, forgiveness, love and compassion. She learnt to deal both with the rich and the poor with equal grace. Her mother was keen that her children received a good education. Social concern was instilled in the children by Mrs Leeves who was very charitable to the poor. Each one of them had to adopt a poor girl for whom they sewed clothes. The material was bought from the money they set aside through their sacrifices. The first crisis that left the family shattered was the death of Sophie’s father, Henry Daniel Leeves, when she was twenty-two years old. After the death of Mr. Leeves, the family left Athens for England. Shortly after, a young English Naval Officer proposed to Sophie. Her mother consented and she was engaged to him even though the marriage was to take place after two years.
