Pruett and Sr. Maria for a prayer vigil and Walk for Life on Oct. 4 in southwest Oklahoma City. The procession, which began at Saint James Catholic Church, in- cluded prayers, singing and a balloon Rosary. The procession walked along S.W. 44 and Blackwelder Avenue, passing Oklahoma City’s new abortion center, before returning to Saint James for a fi nal blessing. During the prayer vigil at the parish before the procession, Pas- tor Hoye, who fl ew from California to participate in the event, talked about his experiences praying near abortion facilities. While he has been confronted by facility staff, his most memorable encounters are with the moms who talk to him before either entering the facility or leaving. Nearly all of the mothers who stop to talk express desperation and feeling lost. continued on Page 8 Photos Cara Koenig, Diane Clay Pope announces 17 new cardinals, including three from U.S. By Cindy Wooden, Catholic News Service VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis will conclude the Year of Mercy by creating 17 new cardinals, includ- ing three from the United States: Archbishop Blase J.

CONSISTORIA Homilia habita occasione Consistorii Ordinarii Publici ad XVII novos Cardinales creandos.* Il brano del Vangelo che abbiamo appena ascoltato,1 molti lo hanno chia- mato “il discorso della pianura”. Dopo l’istituzione dei Dodici, Gesù discese con i suoi discepoli dove una moltitudine lo aspettava per ascoltarlo e per farsi guarire. La chiamata degli Apostoli è accompagnata da questo “mettersi in cammino” verso la pianura, verso l’incontro con una moltitudine che, come dice il testo del Vangelo, era “tormentata”.2 L’elezione, invece di mantenerli in alto sulla montagna, sulla cima, li conduce al cuore della folla, li pone in mezzo ai suoi tormenti, sul piano della loro vita. In questo modo il Signore rivela a loro e a noi che la vera vetta si raggiunge nella pianura, e la pianura ci ricorda che la vetta si trova in uno sguardo e specialmente in una chiamata: « Siate misericordiosi, come il Padre vostro è misericordioso ».3 Un invito accompagnato da quattro imperativi, potremmo dire da quattro esortazioni che il Signore rivolge loro per plasmare la loro vocazione nella concretezza, nella quotidianità dell’esistenza. Sono quattro azioni che daran- no forma, daranno carne e renderanno tangibile il cammino del discepolo. Potremmo dire che sono quattro tappe della mistagogia della misericordia: amate, fate il bene, benedite e pregate.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See POPE FRANCISANGELUSSaint Peter's Square Sunday, 9 October 2016[Multimedia] Dear Brothers and Sisters, I was greatly saddened to hear the news of the grave consequences of the hurricane that in recent days struck the Caribbean, and Haiti in particular, leaving behind many victims and homeless, in addition to considerable material damage. I assure my closeness to the population and express my confidence in the sense of solidarity of the international community, the Catholic institutions and people of good will. I ask you to join me in praying for these brothers and sisters, who are put to such a difficult test. Yesterday in Oviedo, Spain, the priest Gennaro Fueyo Castañón and three lay believers were beatified. We praise the Lord for these heroic witnesses of the faith, joined to the multitude of martyrs who have given their lives in the name of Christ. I send my most cordial greetings to all of you, dear pilgrims, who have participated in the Marian Jubilee. Thank you for your presence! I would like to repeat with you the words of St John Paul II pronounced on 8 October 2000, in the Act of Entrustment to Mary for the Jubilee: “Mother, we wish to entrust to you the future that awaits us. Humanity can turn this world into a garden, or reduce it to a pile of rubble”. At this crossroads, may the Virgin help us choose life, welcoming and practicing the Gospel of Christ the Saviour. Announcement of Consistory for the creation of new Cardinals Brothers and Sisters, It is my pleasure to announce that on Saturday, 19 November, at the vigil for the closing of the Holy Door of Mercy, a Consistory will be held to appoint 13 new Cardinals from five continents.
