  • Fraternal Brotherhood
    VIANNEYNEWS SAINT JOHN VIANNEY COLLEGE SEMINARY SAINT JOHN VIANNEY SPRING 2020 COLLEGE SEMINARY FRATERNAL BROTHERHOOD 1 Dear Friends, When we planned this issue of Vianney News earlier this year, COVID-19 was just beginning to fill the headlines. Today, it impacts every aspect of our lives. The precious gift of our Catholic faith has sustained us and directed us to Easter Sunday when together we proclaimed, “Alleluia, He is risen!” I pray that you and your loved ones remain healthy and are comforted by this promise of everlasting life. As concerns surrounding the Coronavirus spread in March, we made the difficult but prudent decision to bring home 14 SJV seminarians living in Rome for spring semester. I regret that they could not complete their semester abroad, but I trust that the heart of our Church will remain in them. (See pages 6 and 7 for updates from the fall Rome experience.) Shortly thereafter, more than 90 men in formation at SJV were required to move out of the seminary. Most returned to their home dioceses; some are living in cloister at a nearby retreat center with members of the SJV priest staff. All will continue their academic and spiritual formation in new settings off campus. I am very proud of our seminarians and the maturity they have displayed as their college seminary experience significantly changed. They trust in God’s plan for their lives, and they continue to discern under new circumstances. Throughout this issue, you will read about the importance of college seminary formation. Our feature story on fraternal brotherhood (pages 8-11) illustrates the genuine bond of brotherhood fostered at SJV.

Special Insert Enclosed. 445742_V1.indd 1 10/22/18 6:46 PM from the rector together we are joyful, catholic leaders Dear Friends, A new year of formation has begun at The Saint Paul Seminary School of Divinity. It is a privilege for me to serve as the Interim Rector for the fall semester. Building upon the 13-year legacy of Msgr. Aloysius Callaghan, I look forward to welcoming our newly appointed Rector Fr. Joseph Taphorn on January 1. God has blessed this institution with faithful leadership. I am grateful that I can play a small part during this time of transition. While I see God at work every day in our seminarians, lay students, priests, diaconate candidates, faculty and staff, I realize this has been a time of uncertainty for many of us in the Church. Revelations of sexual abuse of minors by ordained clergy have been very painful and have caused us to pause, to question and to pray. We have had and will continue to have, as a seminary community, thoughtful and practical discussion about the formation we offer and the processes we follow to make sure the seminary is a holy place forming holy priests. We are grateful that God is shining His light in the darkness, and we are responding in faith with the gifts He has given us. Simultaneously, there is good news to share. I hope you will be inspired by the stories you read in this issue.

  • History of Saint Agnes
    Preface A hundred years in the life of a man or woman is a long time. In the existence of institutions, especially the Church, a hundred years is as yesterday. But it is good to mark the passing of time, such as a hundred years, and occasionally to look back and assess the events that have occurred, the people who have lived, and the things that have been accomplished. A history of a parish needs be a chronicle of events to a large extent. Judgment on those events is not always possible or necessary and perhaps not even wise. The important thing is that the events and the facts of the past hundred years be recorded as clearly and precisely as possible so that someday someone may wish to have them and use them. Colligite fragmenta ne pereant (Collect the fragments lest they be lost). An old Latin adage says Nemo est judex in causa sua (No one is a judge in his own case). With that in mind, I freely submit that the events chronicled here from 1969 to the present have passed through the judgment of the author, who is the pastor whose time of tenure is being described. I have tried to give a fair picture. Another writer can make the judgment if he so chooses. Monsignor Richard J. Schuler Chapter 1 EUROPE IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Europe in the second half of the nineteenth century was still living under the effects of the French Revolution, the wars of Napoleon and the rise of liberalism. The unification of Germany and the Risorgimento in Italy had caused grave problems for the Church, and the power and the prestige of the papacy had suffered from these political events.

  • Saint Paul Seminary School of Divinity | Winter 2020 Saint Paul Seminary School of Divinity
    ORACLESAINT PAUL SEMINARY SCHOOL OF DIVINITY | WINTER 2020 SAINT PAUL SEMINARY SCHOOL OF DIVINITY University of St. Thomas INTENTIONAL COMMUNITY 1 Dear Friends, As mentioned in the fall issue of the Oracle, The Saint Paul Seminary underwent a strategic planning process in 2019 (see opposite page). One question that our team considered is, “What makes our seminary unique?” There are numerous answers to that question highlighted in this issue. One is our individual approach to priestly formation, which allows the Holy Spirit to move in the heart of each seminarian and bring him to experience the fullness of life that Christ desires for him. A complement to this is the deep sense of fraternity and communal life in our house (see pp.10-11). Another is the special training that our formation directors are undertaking with the Seminary Formation Council (see p.13). One more is that our mission encompasses not only priestly formation, but also for those called to serve as permanent deacons and lay leaders (see pp. 7, 14 and 15). Another unique opportunity comes with our academic calendar having a January Term, or “J-Term,” between fall and spring semesters. This month-long period gives our seminarians special opportunities to engage in priestly formation away from campus. Each class also makes their annual retreat before returning for the spring semester. Theology I men engage in a practicum course in their home dioceses, where they live in a parish and learn about diocesan structures. Then they participate in the annual March for Life in Washington, DC, traveling with archdiocesan youth groups.
