Be Holy Because I Am Holy The ministry of sanctification in the ongoing formation of priests Celebrating the Year for Priests announced by Pope Benedict XVI, NOCERCC’s 2010 convention explores how ongoing formation can support priests in ever more faithfully and effectively carrying out the sanctifying office. In describing this ministry the U.S. bishops’ The Basic Plan for the Ongoing Formation of Priests notes that priests not only “celebrate and preside at the sacramental celebrations of the Church, preeminently the Eucharist,” but also “encourage the whole Church to live the sacraments” (p. 18). Inspired by the biblical injunction, “Be holy because I am holy” (1 Peter 1: 16), our gathering focuses on the presbyteral ministry of sanctification through the experience for priests and the whole Church of the sacrament of Holy Orders. Through prayer and song, mystagogical reflection and faith-sharing, six major addresses and nine seminar-style sessions, this special formation event explores how priests’ experience of the sacraments shapes spirituality and pastoral practice. Speakers, session leaders, and homilists include— Rev. Patrick Brennan Rev. Patrick LaBelle, OP Rev. Richard Chiola Rev.

    St. Thomas Seminary St. Thomas Seminary Latin: Sigillum Seminarii Sancti Thomae Hartford Motto Spes Messis in Semine Hope to Harvest the Seeds Type Private Established 1897 Rector Most Reverend Christie A. Macaluso Location Bloomfield, Connecticut United States Colors Blue and White 1 St. Thomas Seminary, located in Bloomfield, Connecticut, is a minor seminary for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Hartford. The current rector is the Most Reverend Christie A. Macaluso. History[edit] St. Thomas Seminary was founded in 1897 by Bishop Michael Tierney, the sixth Bishop of Hartford. The original Seminary was located at 352 Collins Street in Hartford, in what was once the Chinese College. It opened its doors on September 7, 1897.[1] Bishop Tierney appointed the Right Reverend John Synnott as the first President of St. Thomas. Due to the increasing enrollment it became necessary to find a larger space. Bishop John J. Nilan had the cornerstone laid for the present building in 1928, and in 1930 the seminary moved to its current location in Bloomfield. Collins Street (1897–1930) St. Thomas Seminary opened on September 7, 1897, with 37 students in its first class. On the first floor was a study hall, classrooms, the refectory, and parlors. The second floor consisted of the chapel, a dormitory, and the professors' rooms.[3] Soon after the size of the building proved inadequate for the needs of the diocese, and a new building adjacent to the old Chinese College was erected, serving the diocese until 1930[ Bloomfield (1930–present) On September 30, 1930, St. Thomas opened at its new location in Bloomfield, a suburb of Hartford.

  • Dear Alumni, Parents and Friends
    Honor Roll of Donors Dear Alumni, Parents and Friends ach year as we prepare this report that honors our generous donors to Saint Anselm College, I am reminded E how truly grateful I am for each person on this list. The 2010-2011 Honor Roll of Donors is more than just a listing of names. It is an expression of the regard each of the 5,704 individuals included in this publication has for Saint Anselm College. It is encouraging evidence that, even during challenging economic times, good people still find ways to support what they feel is important in their lives. As we reflect on another year in the life of our beloved Saint Anselm College, we also are mindful of our responsibilities to ensure that future generations will have the opportunity to experience the distinctive Catholic, Benedictine liberal arts education that we offer here. We are reminded of the great work of our founders who had the vision so many years ago to create a great institute for learning on the Hilltop. Our college has grown and advanced so much since those early days, certainly beyond what the founders could have imagined. But what has not changed is the value placed on Catholic education, on learning to respect human life, on how to show gratitude for the blessings in our lives. As we prepare for the future of Saint Anselm College through the implementation of our new strategic plan “Looking Within— Reaching Beyond, Vision 2015,” that includes revising our curriculum and adding new majors to meet the needs of our students as well as improving our facilities and campus life, we look to all of you to help ensure that we fulfill our mission of educating future generations.

  • Assumption Bvm Church, Providence, R.I
    ASSUMPTION BVM CHURCH, PROVIDENCE, R.I. OUR PARISH HISTORY 1870-2018 January 1870 Catholics in the Elmwood neighborhood petition Bishop Francis McFarland of Hartford for a church in this area. Congregations at St. Michael’s on Oxford Street and St. Mary’s on Broadway were increasing dramatically and the district between the two was becoming thickly settled. There had long been talk of the formation of a new parish to reduce the overflow in the South Providence and Olneyville churches and to afford greater convenience to those who resided in the Elmwood area of the city. The impressive growth of Elmwood and the West End was a reflection of the development of Providence as an industrial and commercial center. A number of manufacturing establishments moved into the area west of Elmwood Avenue. The most prominent were cotton mills, jewelry manufacturers, and companies such as the Gorham Manufacturing Company on Adelaide Avenue, which made silverware and other goods from precious metals. At this time, Elmwood was an expanding middle and upper- middle class residential area that stretched along Elmwood and Potters Avenues, and Public, Stanwood, Bucklin, Greenwich and Madison Streets. A young assistant pastor from St. Michael’s by the name of Father Michael Clune saw the need and collected the necessary funds from people in the neighborhood to buy a site and erect a temporary structure. The site purchased by Father Clune was on Linwood Avenue but was ultimately rejected as the site of the Church by the Vicar General of the Diocese of Hartford, Father Hughes. It was Father Hughes himself who in April 1870 negotiated the purchase of the lot of land on which the present church and rectory now stand.
