That word is Mission — "T o spread the Good News of God’s love.” That Mission of Jesus Christ is never a solitary effort. It is an Invitation to solidarity, a unity that la inclusive of all peoples, o f all ages, and in all walks of life. It has been a real Joy to share In the Mission of Jesus Christ with the people of the Church In Pittsburgh. I express my gratitude to Almighty God for the Joy that has been mine these past four years. To my fellow bishops, Bishop McDowell, Bishop Bosco, now in Greensburg, and especially my esteemed predecessor. Bishop Leonard, I express sincere gratitude for your unwavering support and acceptance. To my brother priests and deacons, to my Religious Sisters and Brothers, and to my seminarians, I extend my prayers of thankfulness and encouragement for your will­ ingness to sacrifice yourselves for total service of God’s people.

  • Les Eveques Et La Coupe Du Monde 1998
    LES EVEQUES ET LA COUPE DU MONDE 1998 Mondial 98. Les chrétiens prendront leur part à la fête du sport. Les évêques ont choisi de jouer « balle au pied ». Si tous n'iront pas au stade, les évêques dont les diocèses accueillent les matches du Mondial sont bien décidés à participer à la fête et se réjouissent de ce rassemblement. Mgr Emile Marcus : « Faire valoir les valeurs du sport » Foin de l'indifférence : « Nous avons pris le parti, moi en tête, de faire valoir les valeurs du sport », annonce, tout content d'avoir son billet en poche pour le match Roumanie-Angleterre du 22 juin, l'archevêque de Toulouse. Ces « valeurs » se résument pour lui à quelques mots : éducation, liberté, et surtout « intégration ». Mgr Bernard Panafieu : la rencontre des peuples Rien ne vaut la fête du sport, en effet, pour favoriser la rencontre des couleurs et des origines diverses : « Marseille est la ville de cohabitation de toutes les races », souligne de son côté l'archevêque de Marseille, qui célèbrera ce Mondial par une messe des nations le 12 juin. Il faut dire que ce jour-là, dans la cité phocéenne, l'équipe de France jouera son premier match de la Coupe du monde, face à l'Afrique du Sud. « Tout un symbole ! », note Mgr Panafieu, qui sera aussi dans les tribunes pour la demi-finale du 7 juillet. Cardinal Pierre Eyt : la passion ... du rugby Si le cardinal Jean-Marie Lustiger, archevêque de Paris, n'a rien déclaré sur l'événement, l'archevêque de Bordeaux, le cardinal Pierre Eyt, avoue sa vieille passion « qui remonte aussi loin que celle du latin ! ».

  • Claude DAGENS : Cette Eglise Qui Ne Nous Appartient Pas
    Claude DAGENS : Cette Eglise qui ne nous appartient pas Dieu attend notre libre engagement dans une Eglise que nous n'inventons pas, mais qui nous est donnée comme institution et comme mission. I — LE CHOC DE LA SOCIOLOGIE Depuis la communauté des convertis de Pentecôte jusqu'à l'Eglise moderne des cinq continents, il est naturel aux croyants de se demander ce qu'ils ont à entreprendre pour que le monde croie. Du premier concile de Jérusalem au quatrième synode romain des évêques, la même exigence nous traverse : que faire pour que les hommes s'engagent personnellement envers le Dieu de Jésus- Christ en décidant d'appartenir à son Eglise ? Que faire pour que cette appartenance à l'Eglise de Jésus-Christ, l'appartenance vécue par les croyants et proposée par eux à tous les peuples, réalise toujours davantage sa nature catholique, c'est-à-dire son ouverture sans exclusives à tous les hommes et sa soumission plénière à ce Père qui veut récapituler toutes les choses de l'histoire dans le corps de son Fils ? En conséquence, il est naturel à l'Eglise de mesu rer ses propres réalisations dans l'histoire. Elle le fait souvent depuis quelques décennies, et c'est en général pour constater la distance grandissante qui existe entre l'appartenance espérée et l'appartenance effective. Surtout dans cette vieille Europe, où l'Eglise fait partie du paysage culturel, mais où elle découvre de plus en plus qu'elle est enveloppée et, pire encore, atteinte du dedans par un nouveau paganisme. Impossible d'ignorer ces avertissements de l'histoire : ils nous révèlent que nous sommes les habitants d'une demeure fragile et ouverte à tous les vents.

  • From Our President: Catholic Scholars, Catholic Universities, and the Truth
    Volume 11, Number 2 Fellowship of Catholic Scholars Newsletter March 1988 From Our President: Catholic Scholars, Catholic Universities, and the Truth Between t,heend of September and Christmas I spent much of my time in Rome, first as a "helper" of Archbishop Pierre Eyt, the "secretarius specialis" for the recent Synod of Bishops, and then at a meeting of the International Theological Commission, followed by a week of lectures and discussions. The Synod touch- ed briefly (too briefly and too generally perhaps) on the mission of the laity in the fields of education and culture; during some of my latter discussions in Rome, however, the "credibility" of the teaching of the Church, par- ticularly on issues raised by contemporary science and technology, came more sharply into focus. Of special concern in some of the discussions in which I took part was the "credibility" of Church teaching on such mat- ters as in vitro fertilization. Many people in advanced societies such as the United States and the countries of Western Europe, Catholic as well as non-Catholic, regard the Church's authoritative teaching on these issues as antedeluvian and anti-human. To put the matter somewhat differently, many--perhaps most--ofour contemporaries, particularly people with more years of schooling (whether this should be equated with the "better educated" is another matter), definitely are of the opinion that Church teaching on sex and the generation of human life is nonsense. All the Church seems to do, they think, is to stand in the way of human progress. It arbitrarily imposes "bans" . on human creativity and liberty.

    AHDP - D 1-1 D 1-1 - Evêques Le mot évêque est la transcription française du mot latin episcopus, lui-même adapté du grec Eπίσκοπος / episkopos qui veut dire « surveillant », c'est-à-dire modérateur, tuteur, responsable d'une organisation. C'est un ecclésiastique qui dirige un diocèse. Dans l'Église catholique, les évêques sont nommés par le pape, à partir de listes transmises à Rome par le nonce apostolique, établies par les évêques d'une même province ou même région ecclésiastique. Chaque évêque a le droit de faire des propositions. L'évêque est le successeur des apôtres, et à ce titre, il est Docteur de la foi, chargé de l'enseigner et de la transmettre avec fidélité. L'évêque exerce ses fonctions spirituelles au sein d'une circonscription appelée diocèse ; il réside dans la ville où se trouve sa cathédrale ; cette ville et sa demeure épiscopale sont appelées évêché. Il est chargé de veiller sur son Église locale, d'assurer la liturgie, l'enseignement de la foi catholique et le service aux plus démunis. Il est assisté dans sa tâche par des diacres et des prêtres, ou même des laïcs, dument mandatés. Ses plus proches collaborateurs étaient autrefois les archidiacres ; on les appelle aujourd'hui vicaires épiscopaux et vicaires généraux. L'évêque est également assisté de conseils presbytéraux parmi lesquels se trouve le chapitre de la cathédrale. Certains évêques sont créés cardinaux de la sainte Église romaine, et deviennent alors électeurs du pape dans le cas d'un conclave (s'ils ont moins de 80 ans). Les évêques portent le titre d'archevêque quand ils sont à la tête d'un archidiocèse ; ils arborent alors le pallium.
