  • Dates in the Life of Francis Regis Clet
    Santa Sede On Wednesday, February 21, 2001, His Holiness Pope John Paul II held, in St. Peter’s Square, an Ordinary Public Consistory for the creation of new cardinals. The Holy Father arrived at the portico of the basilica, where the cardinals were already gathered, at 10:30 a.m. and immediately took his seat. After the liturgical greeting, the Holy Father read the formula for the creation of the cardinals and proclaimed their names, among which was that of Stéphanos II Ghattas, C.M., Patriarch of Alexandria for Copts (Egypt). Then, the first of the cardinals, Giovanni Battista Re, gave a warm greeting of gratitude. After the homily, the Pope conferred the biretta on the new cardinals and assigned to each one his own Title or Deaconry. The ceremony concluded with the apostolic blessing. ****** Cardinal Stéphanos II Ghattas, C.M., Patriarch of Alexandria for Copts (Egypt), was born on January 16, 1920 in Sheikh Zein-el-Dine, eparchy of Sohag of the Copts (Egypt). He entered the minor seminary in Cairo in August 1929 and did his classical studies at the Jesuits’ Holy Family High School. In September 1938, he was sent to the Pontifical Athenaeum “de Propaganda Fide” in Rome where he obtained a doctorate in philosophy and theology. He was ordained to the priesthood in Rome on March 25, 1944. He began his pastoral ministry as a philosophy and dogmatic theology professor at the major seminary in Tahta (Egypt). On October 2, 1952, he entered the Congregation of the Mission and made his novitiate in Paris. After working for six years in Lebanon, he was named econome and then superior of our community in Alexandria.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See JUBILEE OF BISHOPS HOMILY OF JOHN PAUL II Sunday 8 October 2000 1. "Teach us, O God, wisdom of heart" (Responsorial Psalm; Italian Lectionary). Today St Peter's Square is like a great Upper Room: for it is hosting Bishops from every part of the world, who have come to Rome to celebrate their Jubilee. The memory of the Apostle Peter, called to mind by his tomb beneath the altar of the great Vatican Basilica, invites us to return in spirit to the first site of the Apostolic College, to that Upper Room in Jerusalem where I recently had the joy of celebrating Mass during my pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Today a spiritual bridge spanning centuries and continents links the Upper Room with this square, where the successors of those first Apostles of Christ have gathered in the Holy Year 2000. I offer my cordial embrace to you all, dear and venerable Brothers, and I extend it with equal affection to all who have been unable to come but are spiritually united with us in their sees. Together let us make our own the invocation of the Psalm: "Teach us, O God, wisdom of heart". In this "sapientia cordis", which is God's gift, we can sum up the fruit of our Jubilee gathering. It consists in our interior conformation to Christ, the Wisdom of the Father, through the action of the Holy Spirit. To receive this gift, indispensable if we are to govern the Church well, we, her Pastors, must first pass through him, "the door of the sheep" (Jn 10: 7).

  • The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension
    The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension Introduction History of Martyrologies The Martyrology is an official liturgical book of the Catholic Church. The official Latin version of the Martyrology contains a short liturgical service the daily reading of the Martyrology’s list of saints for each day. The oldest surviving martyologies are the lists of martyrs and bishops from the fourth-century Roman Church. The martyrology wrongly attributed to St. Jerome was written in Ital in the second half of the fifth century, but all the surviving versions of it come from Gaul. It is a simple martyrology, which lists the name of the saint and the date and place of death of the saint. Historical martyrologies give a brief history of the saints. In the eighth and ninth centuries, St. Bede, Rhabanus Maurus, and Usuard all wrote historical martyrologies. The Roman Martyrology, based primarily on Usuard’s, was first published in 1583, and the edition of 1584 was made normative in the Roman rite by Gregory XIII. The post-Vatican II revision appeared first in 2001. A revision that corrected typographical errors and added 117 people canonized by Pope John Paul II between 2001 and 2004, appeared in 2005.1 The Purpose and Principles of This Martyology The primary purpose of this martyrology is to provide an historically accurate text for liturgical use at the monastery, where each day after noon prayer it is customary to read the martyrology for the following day. Some things in this martyrology are specific to the Monastery of the Ascension: namesdays of the members of the community, anniversaries of members of the community who have died, a few references to specific events or saints of local interest.

  • Transitional Experiences of Chinese Students to Graduate Study at a Canadian University Within a Social, Political, Cultural, and Linguistic Context*
    US-China Education Review A, October 2015, Vol. 5, No. 10, 641-659 doi:10.17265/2161-623X/2015.10.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING Transitional Experiences of Chinese Students to Graduate Study at a Canadian University Within a Social, * Political, Cultural, and Linguistic Context Noel Hurley, Hailiang Zhao, Peng Yu, Dandan Lu, Xin Wang Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John’s, Canada The transition from one ancient Asian culture to a very different Western culture is pursued here from the perspective of four graduate students from China. Each graduate student came from very different backgrounds and circumstances yet the transition adjustments were similar for all. The main pursuit of this paper was to identify factors that ease transitions and factors that make transitions more difficult. Age, gender, work experience, academic preparation, and linguistic proficiency were different for each writer and these demographic effects seemed to cause different levels of comfort in their adjustment to their new surroundings. The paper used a narrative approach to qualitatively draw comparisons among the four graduate participants. Findings are hopefully to be helpful in preparing future students experience easier transitions as they move from China to study in Western universities. The following research questions were asked: 1. Why did you apply to study in Canada? 2. Where else did you apply? 3. What was the biggest difficulty you experienced in coming here? 4. How prepared were you to come to Canada from a linguistic, social, cultural, political, and financial perspective? 5. How accommodating and helpful were university officials? Government officials? Others? 6. Did anyone serve as a liaison during your move here? 7.
