Not so. There was the Catholic Thanksgiving of 1565 in Florida and another Catholic Thanksgiving of 1598 in Texas. 1. The first American Thanksgiving was actually celebrated on September 8 (feast of the birth of the Blessed Virgin) in 1565 in St. Augustine, Florida. The Native Americans and Spanish settlers held a feast and the Holy Mass was offered. This was 56 years before the Puritan pilgrims of Massachusetts. Don Pedro Menendez came ashore amid the sounding of trumpets, artillery salutes and the firing of cannons to claim the land for King Philip II and Spain. The ship chaplain Fr. Francisco Lopez de Mendoza Grajales chanted the Te Deum and presented a crucifix that Menendez ceremoniously kissed. Then the 500 soldiers, 200 sailors and 100 families and artisans, along with the Timucuan Indians celebrated the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in gratitude to God. 2. The second American Thanksgiving happened on April 30, 1598, when Spanish explorer Don Juan de Oñate requested the friars to say a Mass of Thanksgiving, after which he formally proclaimed “La Toma”, claiming the land north of the Rio Grande for the King of Spain. The men feasted on duck, goose, and fish from the river. The actors among them dressed and presented a play. All this took place twenty-three years before the Pilgrims set sail from England on the Mayflower. 3. The Puritan pilgrims were violently anti-Catholic. They left England because they thought that the Church of England was too Catholic.

  • UNDERSTANDING PAUL the Insights of Dom Columba Marmion and Elisabeth of the Trinity
    CELIA KOURIE UNDERSTANDING PAUL The Insights of Dom Columba Marmion and Elisabeth of the Trinity Joseph Columba Marmion (1858-1923) and Elisabeth Catez (1880-1906) – both great lovers of the apostle Paul, and both devoted to the Trinity – what do they have to teach us in today’s secular society? What message can they impart to many who may never have experienced the richness of scripture or the won- der of the divine life in the depths of the human person?1 It is interesting to note that apart from sharing a deep spirituality, based on the ‘gospel’ of Paul, particularly the mystery of living ‘in Christ’ and sharing his divine life, there are one or two incidents in the lives of both Marmion and Elisabeth that bear a certain resemblance. Firstly, both had a mystical experi- ence in their young adulthood which, while it was not dramatic, remained with them for the remainder of their lives, and supported them throughout the var- ious trials of the Christian, and particularly the religious, life.2 Secondly, both experienced a time of distress and doubt just before their commitment to their chosen path.3 Elisabeth died at a very young age, but left behind a spiritual legacy in the form of some occasional writings, one or two treatises, some poetry and a large correspondence – 346 letters written to people in all walks of life. In fact, of the 57 people that Elisabeth wrote to, 50 were lay persons. Dom 1 One of the more recent works on Dom Marmion is by Mark Tierney, Dom Columba Marmion: A biography, Dublin 1994.

  • The Apology of Sir Thomas More, Knight
    1 The Apology of Sir Thomas More, Knight by Sir Thomas More Page and line numbers correspond to The Complete Works of St. Thomas More (Yale University Press), volume 9. A complete concordance to this work can be found at www.thomasmorestudies.org/publications.html#Concordance. Spelling standardized, punctuation modernized, and glosses added by Mary Gottschalk ©CTMS 2014 Punctuation The only punctuation marks found in the original printed version of A Dialogue of Comfort are the period, comma, question mark, slash, or “virgule” ( / ), and parentheses. Quotation marks, semicolons, dashes, exclamation points, italics, and suspension points have been added with the goal of making the text more readily understood by present-day readers. Many commas needed to be inserted and many removed in deference to current rules about restrictive and nonrestrictive phrases. Italics are added for titles and, occasionally, for emphasis. As for the suspension points ( … ), these are substitutes for many of More’s slashes. He often used a slash where we would use a semicolon, a dash, or italics; but he also, quite often, used one to indicate whether a certain phrase was meant to be connected more closely with the one preceding it or with the one following it; to call attention to parallel elements in different phrases; or simply to facilitate serious reflection. He also quite often used a slash for dramatic purposes—to indicate, perhaps, a coming sly comment, or some possibly surprising conclusion. The evident thoughtfulness with which More punctuated this book leads one to suspect that he anticipated its being often read aloud, and wanted to make sure the reader got the cadence right.

Sola scriptura, “the scripture alone” was a Reformation slogan, and the nature of that scripture was defined in philological terms. Luther used Erasmus’s edition of the Greek New Testament with a revised Latin translation in an effort to reach the sources of biblical thought. When Luther understood the original languages well enough, he translated the text into German for the common reader. William Tyndale followed his example in English, laying the foundations for most of our King James Version.

    Dear Student: On behalf of Fr. Abbot John T. Brahill, O.S.B., the monks of Marmion Abbey along with the faculty and staff of the Academy, I welcome you as a member of a unique community—the Marmion Family. We invite you to be a part of the rich academic and religious traditions of Marmion and ask that, in turn, you share your personal talents and skills with others. Join us in creating a school community - a special place - where we strongly support each other in our common goals and respect each other's diversity in order to provide a lively and wholesome campus life for all. This Student Handbook serves as a guide to foster that kind of life. An awareness of the customs and regulations of the Academy as contained in the handbook will help you to benefit from the many opportunities available to you at Marmion and will assist you in working harmoniously with others. It is thus my hope that your Marmion Academy experience will be a happy one that produces growth in both wisdom and God's grace. May he bless your every activity. In Christ James J. Quaid, Ph.D. Headmaster August 1, 2012 1 ROOTS OF MARMION THE LIFE OF ST. BENEDICT: St. Benedict was born in the year 480 in Nursia, a small village in central Italy. Little is known of his parents except that they were of Roman nobility. Benedict cherished his twin sister, Scholastica, especially as one from whom he could expect sound counsel. When Benedict was yet a young man, he was sent to Rome for his education in the fine arts.

CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE LEGAL SOUL: THE JURISPRUDENCE OF SAINT THOMAS MORE BRIAN M. MURRAYt INTRODUCTION Before Thomas More's life ended, he uttered the following famous last words: "'I die the king's good servant, and God's first.' "1 The phrase, while brief, is a window through which one can view More's philosophy, legal career, and service as a judge under the regime of King Henry VIII. Roughly twenty years earlier, More, in his finest and most widely known work, Utopia,2 advocated perseverance through prudence to public servants facing moral difficulty: "Don't give up the ship in a storm because you cannot direct the winds. [W]hat you cannot turn to good, you may at least-to the extent of your powers-make less bad."3 These lines, demonstrating the tension between serving in a system of imperfect human law while trying to remain the loyal servant of an unearthly yet divine kingdom, also serve as bookends for More's life and philosophy.

WIT AND THE NATURAL LAW, THE QUARTUM QUID We are created "to serve [God] wittily, in the tangle of [our] mind[s]," Sir Thomas More declares in Robert Bolt's play A Man for All Seasons.2 More began his adult life of service of God in the self-imposed silence of the London Charterhouse, and that same life was ended for him, of course, in the isolation of the Tower of London and through the violence of Tower Hill, on account of a self-imposed silence of different inspiration. Between Charterhouse and Tower, Thomas More was as cunning as a serpent to use what considerable wit he could muster to serve God, Church, family, and state, including through law.

  • Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)
    The following text was originally published in Prospects: the quarterly review of comparative education (Paris, UNESCO: International Bureau of Education), vol. XXIV, no. 1/2, 1994, p. 185–202 ©UNESCO:International Bureau of Education, 2000 This document may be reproduced free of charge as long as acknowledgement is made of the source SIR THOMAS MORE (1478-1535) Keith Watson1 Sir Thomas More, or more accurately Saint Thomas More, since he was beatified by the Roman Catholic Church in 1886 and canonized as a saint in 1935, has been variously described as ‘the most attractive figure of the early sixteenth century’,2 ‘the voice of conscience’ of the early English Reformation3 and ‘one of the three greatest figures of the English Renaissance’.4 He was a scholar, lawyer, theologian, statesman and eventual martyr, whose influence was less on the development of the Reformation in England as upon creating a particular genre of futuristic and idealistic writing about society. His most famous book, Utopia, has come to be accepted as an everyday term in the English language and ‘utopian’ is often used to refer to an idea or concept that is idealistic and highly desirable, but which at the same time is completely impracticable and unrealistic. In terms of political science, both liberals and socialists lay claim to Thomas More as a founder of some of their ideas. There has even been a room in the Kremlin devoted to Thomas More because of his apparent espousal of communism as a political ideal.5 He was born into a period of intense political and social turmoil in English history as the House of York was overthrown by Henry Tudor in 1485 and as a new, ruthless dynasty was established, a dynasty that was to have a profound influence not only on the future shape of Church/State relations, and consequently on the development of parliamentary democracy in England and Wales, but above all on the future development of the Reformation in England.

ST. THOMAS MORE AS JUDGE AND LAWYER GARRARD GLENNT IT MAY be strange to speak of a Saint in connection with a chattel mortgage on an automobile, or the Federal Rules of Civil Practice. In our schools of philosophy, indeed, St. Thomas Aquinas is often in- voked, but a learned discussion as to the entity of the being seems more respectable, somehow, than a discussion of chattel mortgages or the high price of credit. But respectability is often quite distant from the reali- ties, and because St. Thomas More belongs to our profession, he was always very close to the common things that affect the citizen. His Utopia shows that, but so do his achievements as lawyer and judge. He is our patron, be it remembered; and it was high time that we had one. St. Giles of Brittany was, indeed, supposed to fill that place; but so small a part did he play with us that Mr.
