    Myanmar 500 years Jubilee - Jesuit Footsteps through History A sacred fever grips the streets of Yangon as thousands descend from yonder lands of Myanmar for the historic 500 years Jubilee of Christian presence. Kachins from the northern most dioceses have come in thousands. One group led by Our Joseph Aik Maung. They have occupied all empty spaces in and around the churches, halls, hindu temples . In a commendable show of Christian fellowship, the Yangon Catholics are feeding these thousands. The church proudly show cases its colourful mosaic of seven ethnic groups. Neither the war nor displacement deterred the Kachins from undertaking this long journey – crossing rivers and mountains and a journey that took nearly two full days. There is a riot of colors in the streets of Yangon. Christianity in its full unity and diversity proclaims its presence in thousands today. Traces of Christianity were found even before tenth century. Surprising these were from China, long suspected to be one of the early Christian settlement. Stable presence occurred with the arrival of Portuguese in the 16th Century. Dominicans, the Jesuits and the Augustinians selflessly devoted themselves to promoting Christianity. In later eras were to be filled by other Institutes: the Barnabites, the Oblates of the Virgin Mary, the Foreign Mission Society of Paris, PIME, the St. Columban Missionaries and the Missionaries of Our Lady of La Salette. The Catholic Church has written glorious pages in Burma, in the field of educational and social-promotional work, if we think only of the first Burmese alphabet prepared by the Barnabite, Mons. G.M.

May they be means to God through St. Ignatius of Loyola, whose Feast we celebrate on July 31. We encourage the readers to use them for spiritual reading, personal reflection and prayer, and in the process be transformed and renewed gently by God. They are recommended for spiritual conversations and faith sharing in the various Ministries and Groups in the parish, so that together, we may all fix our gaze more on Christ and “see all things new in Him.” Indeed, we are blessed in belonging to a parish that bears the name of this great Saint and in being able to drink from the fountain of his charism and spirituality.

This is often referred to as the “Great Commissioning.” It was an invitation to the apostles, but one also extended to believers in every generation. It is at the heart of our baptismal commitment and the social Gospel that Jesus proclaimed. In a very real sense, it fulfills the words of Jesus: “Truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.” ( John 14:12 ) The “Works of Jesus” infuse the teaching of the things is our love for others and God. The example entire New Testament. It is a mission to proclaim the of how to do these things is that of Jesus at the Last Kingdom of God, announce the time of repentance Supper who washes the feet of his disciples to teach and forgiveness of sins, enter into an era of “the them that they must also be servants to one another.

    Heart Beats Newsletter Of The International Community Of Sacred Heart Cathedral February 2015 - March 2015 “May the words of our mouths (and those we write) and the meditations of our hearts, be pleasing in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer” - Psalm 19:14 From the Pastor’s Desk Dear Parishioner, Watching the brutal death of Japanese journalist Kenji Goto on the news brought home to us in Japan the reality of suffering and violence in the Middle East. We do not merely see the cry for justice, it is now actually a part of us. This was further aggravated by burning a Jordanian pilot alive a few days later. These incidents are part of the reality of brutality that continue to perpetrate our world every day. It is a reality that has affected the lives of millions of people. Thanks to the media today, these realities are brought right in front of our eyes. This eye-opener has brought several nations and leaders together in solidarity and a united condemnation against these brutal acts. However, as an eye-opener, we hope that these realities may also bring nations, people and leaders to look inwardly on how we contribute to the perpetration of violence and hatred in this world. That these realities we concretely see and feel can also be byproducts of our collective and individual apathy and indifference to the needs of others. This invitation to look inward while condemning injustice and violence is a good reminder for us upon entering the season of Lent in the Catholic Church.

  • Koch Foundation 2012 Annual Report
    Mission Statement Carl Koch’s belief that he was “just a steward of the finances given by God to use on His behalf” inspired the commitment he and his wife, Paula, made to founding the Koch Foundation in 1979. The Foundation’s goals are to strengthen and to propagate the Roman Catholic faith by providing grant support for a wide variety of evangelization efforts. In considering applications, major emphasis is placed on sound but financially needy evangelical programs. The Koch Foundation is international in scope with no geographical preference. Carl and Paula Koch 2 Letter From The Executive Director The Holy Father has called for a Year of Faith from 11 October 2012 until 24 November 2013, the Solemnity of Christ the King. This Year of Faith coincides with two important anniversaries of our Church: the 50th anniversary of the opening of Vatican Council II, called by Blessed Pope John XXIII on 11 October 1962 and the 20th anniversary of the promulgation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church by Blessed Pope John Paul II on 11 October 1992. Pope Benedict XVI encourages each of us to familiarize ourselves with some of the basic documents that followed the council. He suggests we begin with Gaudium Et Spec and include some of the encyclicals of John Paul II, such as Laboren Exercents and Sollicitude Rei Socialis. Participation in these components of the Year of Faith will provide us, as Disciples of Christ, with the means to enhance our understanding of the foundations of our faith. Becoming familiar with the Catechism of the Catholic Church during the Year of Faith will lead us naturally to be more effective witnesses to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Rathiga, Research Scholar & Major (Dr).M.VIJI, Associate Professor & Head , Department of History, Holy Cross College,(Autonomous), According to oral tradition among Tamil Christians also backed up by Christian missionary organizations, the earliest Tamil converts to Christianity can be traced to the 1st century when the apostle Saint Thomas visited South India. St .Thomas established a settlement of Christians baptized by him at Mylapore [the Portuguese meliapore] in modern Chennai which led to the place being known as Santhome. St .Thomas mount in Chennai, the place where St.Thomas, one of the disciples of Jesus Christ, was believed to have been martyred is an important pilgrimage site for Indian Christians. Although Christianity came to Tamil Nadu from the time of Saint Thomas the Apostle, the revival of Christianity dates back to Francis Xavier. Because of the perseverance and hard work of the missionaries, many Tamilians have become Christians, who are the second largest in number after the Christians in Kerala.1 The Jesuits played a vital role in bringing Christianity into the Tamil Country. St. Ignatius of Loyola started the Society of Jesus with six members in 1540 Sep.

  • Homily of Fr. James M. Hayes, S. J., at the Jesuit Community Mass
    HOMILY OF FR. JAMES M. HAYES, S. J., AT THE JESUIT COMMUNITY MASS, THE COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS, FEAST OF ALL SAINTS AND BLESSED OF THE SOCIETY OF JESUS, NOVEMBER 5, 2012 Moses grasped an insight which is available to all of us. Moses discovered how one can be in communion with God. Through repeated ascents up a mountain, through long fasts and prayer, Moses listened to God’s voice. He taught Israel that God was close to us as our hearts, as our very breath. Ignatius, too, learned this lesson. Through his many months lying on his sickbed, during his year in Manresa, Ignatius discovered the closeness of God. He realized that God desires to be in intimate companionship with us. The other insight Ignatius discovered was the power of intercession. Ignatius instinctively knew to whom to pray. Some prayers he addressed to God the Father, some to Jesus, some to the Holy Spirit, and some to Mary and the saints. We hold the belief in the communion of saints and thanks to the research of Father Lapomarda, I have learned that the Society of Jesus has fifty-one canonized saints, one hundred fifty one Jesuits who have been beatified, nineteen venerables, and fifty-nine servants of God. That’s an impressive collection of intercessors. Each of them was a grain of wheat that fell into the ground and bore fruit. The Society of Jesus has an orchard of saints to choose from for us who remain on this pilgrim journey. Here are some suggestions for the students among us.
