That plan should be followed and may at times supersede the contents of the Rule of Life. 4 Explanation of the Seal The Mount Angel Seminary seal is comprised of a shield divided into three panels, each with a bearing. The shield connotes “protection, dignity and power.” The upper part of the shield is the American eagle with outstretched wings facing uncharacteristically eastward. Although no specific information can be found for this direction, it makes sense that the face of the eagle, symbolic of America, is oriented towards the direction of the rising sun, a cosmic symbol of the Resurrection and Second Coming. Such an explanation would make the point that America will find her ultimate destiny in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The lower right part of the shield bears a section of the American flag. The lower left part contains the superimposed Greek letters X (chi) and P (rho), the first two letters in the Greek word for “Christ.” A cross tops the entire shield. The shield is flanked by two additional symbols: a sword and a pen. It is thought that these symbols are meant to express the proverb, “The pen is mightier than the sword.” With this seal Mount Angel Seminary wishes to impress on the student that on leaving his alma mater he enters the world with the symbols of the Gospel and the best traditions of American culture. From their time of formation at Mount Angel Seminary, graduates are formed by God in Christ and equipped with learning (the pen) to bring the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ to the people of the United States. It is thought that the seal was designed by Frs. Urban Fischer, OSB, and Dominic Waedenschwyler, OSB, and was in use by 1891. (cf. Catalogue of Mt. Angel College and Seminary, 1897; explanation by Fr. Maurus Snyder, OSB, in Pacific Star, 1941, Feb. 7, p. 6) 5 Introduction Mount Angel Seminary is a formative community where seminarians from many dioceses and religious communities carry out the important and vital task of discerning and being formed for the Lord’s call to ordained priestly ministry in the

  • Operation Blue Angel
    OPERATION BLUE ANGEL Operation Blue Angel is a program offered by the Raritan Borough Police Department to assist residents who due to advanced age, mobility, or medical concerns may be unable to answer their door during an emergency. The program is administered free of charge to any eligible resident. Through Operation Blue Angel, a police department-owned lock box (similar to a realtor's lock box) is installed on a door of the home. A key, supplied by the resident, is locked inside the box. In the event of an emergency, responding police officers are able to retrieve the key by using a confidential code allowing us to quickly enter the home without causing damage. Applicants to Operation Blue Angel must meet certain criteria and agree to the following terms and conditions: • Must be 55 years of age or older or have a medical condition that is potentially incapacitating • Must either live alone, or be home alone on a frequent basis • Must provide a key (or keys) for an entry door to the home • Must grant the Raritan Borough Police Department permission to access and use the key in an emergency. A provided waiver form must be notarized and included with the application. • The Police Department maintains ownership of the lock box, and if a participant moves from the residence they must notify the Police Department so that the lock box may be retrieved. • For security purposes the resident will not be given the code to the lock box and may not request access to the lock box except in a medical emergency.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • 2019 Annual Report
    Annual Report 2019 Something is happening here. Christ is here, and his coming brings us joy! from the president Let all who arrive be welcomed as Christ. Dear friends, What has marked the momentous years in your life? Weddings? Births? New ventures and adventures? The past year has been truly momentous for Mount Angel. Long-planned projects came to fruition —thanks to the unceasing prayers of our monks and friends, the generosity of our donors, and some dedicated beer fans! Benedictine Brewery opened its St. Michael Taproom to the public a year ago and has recently sailed through its second annual Oktoberfest with larger revenues and thumbs-up reviews. More important, the taproom’s guests enjoy meeting the monks and learning about Mount Angel. Join them! Have you had a chance to visit the newly re-opened Saint Benedict Guesthouse and Retreat Center? Its welcoming new spaces have inspired our guests and renewed the monks’ ministry of hospitality. Whether you live near or far, please consider reserving a room for the spiritual retreat your soul needs. It’s waiting for you. Thanks to careful planning, the Abbey’s historic library will be refurbished in time to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2020. True to its Benedictine heritage, the library represents the tradition of sharing and preserving the best of theology and culture. Remember, if you live within a 50-mile radius of Mount Angel, you qualify for a library card. So much more has happened this year, including a nationwide downturn in priestly vocations and seminary enrollment. Mount Angel Seminary meets this trend with a spirit of confidence.

    Matthew 1:1-17 Luke 3:23b-38 Jesus’ legal lineage through Joseph and natural lineage through Mary “The purpose of a genealogy was not to account for every generation but to establish the fact of an undoubted succession, including especially the more important ancestors. Harmony of the Gospels, Thomas and Gundry, p 315 Matthew 1:1-17 Luke 3:23b-38 Jesus’ legal lineage through Joseph and natural lineage through Mary Genealogies used to: Show identity and duty Demonstrate credentials for power and property Structure history Indicate one’s character Matthew 1:1-17 Luke 3:23b-38 Jesus’ legal lineage through Joseph and natural lineage through Mary Comparison and Contrast between Matthew and Luke: Inverted End at different places in the past Different names Converge at David Matthew includes women Matthew 1:1-17 Luke 3:23b-38 Jesus’ legal lineage through Joseph and natural lineage through Mary The differences can be explained as Matthew offers Joseph’s genealogy and Luke offers Mary’s. Both show that Jesus is a descendant of David as promised in scripture Matthew 1:1-17 Luke 3:23b-38 Jesus’ legal lineage through Joseph and natural lineage through Mary Matthew’s purpose is to show Jesus as the fulfillment of the promise of a Messiah through God’s chosen people. Luke’s purpose is to reveal the Savior to all of mankind. John’s birth foretold to Zechariah Luke 1:5-25 • Verse 5 is typical of Luke’s use of details in his writing. • Verses 6 and 7 give a stark contrast to the assessment of Zechariah and Elizabeth by God and what the people of their day would think of them.
