The sacrament of charity (1), the Holy Eucharist is the gift that Jesus Christ makes of himself, thus revealing to us God's infinite love for every man and woman. This wondrous sacrament makes manifest that "greater" love which led him to "lay down his life for his friends" (Jn 15:13). Jesus did indeed love them "to the end" (Jn 13:1). In those words the Evangelist introduces Christ's act of immense humility: before dying for us on the Cross, he tied a towel around himself and washed the feet of his disciples. In the same way, Jesus continues, in the sacrament of the Eucharist, to love us "to the end," even to offering us his body and his blood. What amazement must the Apostles have felt in witnessing what the Lord did and said during that Supper! What wonder must the eucharistic mystery also awaken in our own hearts! The food of truth 2. In the sacrament of the altar, the Lord meets us, men and women created in God's image and likeness (cf. Gen 1:27), and becomes our companion along the way. In this sacrament, the Lord truly becomes food for us, to satisfy our hunger for truth and freedom. Since only the truth can make us free (cf.

  • Charitable Work of the Church in the Polish Lands in the Xix Century and Its Impact on Education
    Journal of Vasyl Stefanyk PrecarpathianCharitable National W Universityork of the Church in the Polish Lands in the XIX century… 129 http://journals.pnu.edu.ua Vol. 7, No. 1 (2020 ), 129 - 133 UDC 378(09)(477.4/7)37.014.543 doi: 10.15330/jpnu.7.1.129-133 CHARITABLE WORK OF THE CHURCH IN THE POLISH LANDS IN THE XIX CENTURY AND ITS IMPACT ON EDUCATION LESZEK AFTYKA, PIOTR MAZUR Abstract. The Catholic Church in the Polish lands in the XIX century has had numerous charity works. The charitable activities were seen as the task of God's commandment of love. The purpose of this activity was to support poor people in the form of satisfying basic material needs and achieving adequate personal development. The article discusses the most important forms of assistance provided by religious orders, as well as clerical and lay organizations. The author draws attention to the charity's impact on education and the formation of humanistic values in society. Many priests set up organisations that had such names as: “Star”, “Aurora”, “Fatherland”, “Rock”. Their main objective was to raise up education standards and stimulate patriotism and solidarity among young people. Therefore, cooperation between educational institutions, families, non- governmental organizations, volunteer movements, charitable foundations for the expansion of active charitable activities, and the creation of a humanistic society is required. Nowadays it is extremely important to revive philanthropy and altruism in every country. Currently, there are foundations, organizations aimed at carrying out charitable activities and attracting to the charity all who wish to serve the cause of raising Christian morality, culture, education, art, support of the poor.

Therefore, I wish to announce that: - following the favourable opinion that has already been submitted in writing by the Venerable Cardinals throughout the world and by the Archbishops and Bishops who live in Rome, I intend to set Sunday, 23 October 2005, as the date for the Canonization of the following five Blesseds: Bl.

The Marian Thoughts of Pope Benedict XVI October 2, 2005 to October 30, 2005 October 2, 2005: Angelus Address “I am near the Pope (John Paul II) and now he helps me to be near the Lord and I try to enter this atmosphere of prayer, of love for our Lord, for Our Lady and I entrust myself to his prayers. So there is a permanent dialogue and we're close to each other in a new way, in a very deep way. The spiritual center of this hymn thus becomes a prelude to John's proclamation, "And the Word became flesh and lived among us" (John 1:14). We conclude remembering that the beginning of this second part of Psalm 131(132) has been habitually used by the Fathers of the Church to describe the Incarnation of the Word in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary. As early as St. Irenaeus, referring to Isaiah's prophecy concerning the virgin giving birth, explained, "The words, 'Listen, therefore, O house of David' (Isaiah 7:13) indicate that the eternal king that God had promised to David to rise up from 'the fruit of his womb,' an expression that indicates a pregnant virgin.

Published by the Ukrainian National Association Inc., a fraternal non-profit association Vol. LXIX HE KRAINIANNo. 26 THE UKRAINIAN WEEKLY SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2001 EEKLY$1/$2 in Ukraine POPET CONCLUDESU HISTORIC VISITW TO UKRAINE by Roman Woronowycz Kyiv Press Bureau KYIV, LVIV – For five days, Pope John Paul II, the leader of nearly 1 bil- lion faithful of the Catholic Church, vis- ited his 6-million-strong flock in Ukraine in a trip that, in the end, surpassed all expectations. It left an indelible mark on the millions who came out to see him, as well as on his relations with the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church that has been in communion with the Vatican See for just over 500 years. It was the 94th visit in the 24 years of the papacy of the Polish holy father, but one that his personal secretary called “a long held dream,” one which he had talked about for “11, 12, even 14 years.” In many ways it was a trip home. Although Pope John Paul II was not born in Ukraine, his Ukrainian mother was born outside of Drohobych. And while this was his first trip to Ukraine as the head of the Catholic Church, he had spent time in the western part of the country in his youth and had been stationed there during his military serv- ice. Nearly 3 million people, the faithful and the curious, saw the aging and frail AP/Alexander Zemlianichenko holy father during a youth rally and at Pope John Paul II and Cardinal Lubomyr Husar, primate of the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church, bless the faithful upon four divine liturgies – twice celebrated in the pontiff’s arrival at the Lviv Hippodrome on Wednesday, June 27.

  • Choosing a Confirmation Saint Due First Day of Confirmation Year 2 Class on September 16
    Your Summer Homework: Choosing a Confirmation Saint Due First day of Confirmation Year 2 class on September 16 YOUR CONFIRMATION NAME As a candidate for the celebration of the sacrament of Confirmation, you have two options concerning the choice of a Confirmation name. The name chosen would represent the direction you feel your faith life is taking, or would represent a saint who’s Heroic Virtue embodies the strength or attributes you feel you need. 1. You may choose your present baptismal name (your regular first name). This shows the sacramental connection with the first and second part of your initiation into the Catholic Church-Baptism and First Eucharist. To stay with your baptismal name would demonstrate that you feel there has been a continual growth in your faith and you now wish to make this formal through Confirmation. 2. You may also choose the name of a person who inspires you or a saint's name. This would symbolize a new beginning in your faith life and a connection with that person or saint. This would be especially appropriate if you are now making a renewed commitment to your faith. Your commitment would be symbolized with the taking of a new name to show that you are in some ways a new person. This option of taking a new name is not to be used because you like the sound of the name, how it fits with your other names, or because it is the name of a nice friend or relative. In this case, the Bishop will say both your Baptismal Name and your Confirmation Saint name.
