Daly, SJ Page 3 What’s It All About, Alfie? anresa is a sacred place, sanctified by prayer and sacrament and silence. I had never experienced a retreat before MManresa, even at the Jesuit university I attended. The closest was a “day of reflection” in high school with kumbaya sing-alongs, “what-kind-of-tree-are-you?” discussions and sending up prayers in balloons. I don’t remember why I accepted the invitation to come to Manresa in 1991 when at the time the last thing I wanted was to talk about faith. I had just recently come back to the Church after several years. I still felt like a visitor in my parish, St. Thomas More in Troy, Michigan. I had Pope Francis washing the feet of prisoners, Holy Thursday service 2019.* no sense of purpose then. So my first surprise and joy of (Foto ©Vatican Media – used with permission) Manresa was the silence. At first it was just relief that I didn’t have to talk to anybody, but I came to cherish it. A second joy was the example of the men who’d been coming pray by giving me silence, time to listen and guidance in to Manresa for decades. These two blessings brought me recognizing God’s grace, discovering who I am in His eyes back. and discerning how to live rightly. The annual “recharging ef of my batteries” on retreat led me to ask, gradually and in different ways over the years, “What is my purpose? Is What is my purpose? what I desire the end for which God created me?” Is what I desire the end I heard one answer, one call to purpose, in the quiet on for which God created me? maybe my fourth retreat.

  • MEDITATIONS on the GOSPELS. by Bishop Ottokar Prohoszka. Translation by M
    MEDITATIONS ON THE GOSPELS. By Bishop Ottokar Prohoszka. Translation by M. De Pal. Westminster, Maryland, The Newman Press, 1951. pp. vi, 827, with indices. $5.50. Cardinal Mazella declared of the young priest Ottokar Prohoszka that his mind was so strong that it would impress millions. He added that "if he were a heretic he would disturb no fewer." Born in 1858, he was ordained in 1881 and in 1905 consecrated Bishop of the very poor diocese of Szekesfehervar in Hungary. He died in 1927. As a seminary professor he had insisted that "independent regular medita­ tion" was necessary to anyone who aspired to the priesthood. This book of m editations is proximate fruit of his own meditations, medi­ tations that stimulated him in the pursuit of his career as social­ minded scholar, lecturer, author, and bishop. His own holy and labori­ ous life exemplifies what is a recurring theme of his meditations, namely that one's meditations should produce external fruit. The Dominican watchword, "Contemplate and pass on to others," in­ cludes the holy Bishop's notion. Meditations On The Gospels first appeared in 1931. It originally appeared as three separate volumes. Those three volumes have now been reduced to one. There is a handy index of the contemplated Gospel texts to be found at the end of each volume. There is also a li sting of the meditations that treat of the Gospels alloted to each Sunday of the year, this listing conveniently arranged at the end of the book. The meditations follow the chronological order of the Gospels.

  • Free Copy FOREWORD
    Free Copy FOREWORD From the 7th tothe10th century, many monks and missionaries left Ireland for mainland Europe and kept the faith alive on that continent during its dark ages, when Barbarian invasions from the East resulted in the break-up of the Roman Empire. Most of these missionaries never returned to their homeland but endured a lifelong exile known as ‘white martyrdom’. From the 1570s to the 1680s the Church in Ireland experienced periods of violent persecution that were in intensity, on a par with what the early Christians suffered at the hands of the Roman Empire. Nevertheless many priests returned to Ireland during this period from the continent where they had been formed and educated. Together with people from all social classes, clergy and laity they kept the Faith alive in Ireland by shedding their blood in what was a ‘red martyrdom’. Tertullian said: “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of faith”. In Europe, populations tended to adopt the state religion over time. In Ireland however, the vast majority of the population did not do so but remained steadfast in their faith. The witness of the martyrs must surely have helped to sustain the Faith in Ireland during this period. What is more, in the face of terrible injustices, these martyrs are witnesses to the power of forgiveness and love, which records often show, they freely gave their persecutors. When the early Church received the freedom to worship it promoted and remembered the martyrs, adding their names to the liturgy, celebrating their feast days and building shrines and churches where they were buried.

  • The Far Flung Flinns
    The Far Flung Flinns Chapter 5 THE FIRST HOLOCAUST or The Martyrs of Ireland (Those Murdered in Religious Persecution by England) It is my intent in this chapter to detail some of the many heinous and brutal crimes perpetrated by the English against the Irish since about 1169. That is over 800 years, and the crimes, though perhaps lesser, are still being committed. Please read on. Their ploy was to use "Papal permission, " as a reason to eradicate the Irish. I believe that the following events are the most neglected, dismissed, or understated by historians of any events in World History. The age of cruelty and heinous crimes began when Henry II, House of Plantagenet, became King of England in 1155 AD. Although he, through Maud (the Empress Matilda), his mother, was himself of Irish descent, he wanted to dominate and enslave the Irish people and to own Ireland. It was the most beautiful island, and had untold riches in minerals, in addition to having possibly the best farmland in Europe. Despite near excommunication for quarrelling with and castigating the holy Thomas A' Becket, Henry II convinced, or bribed, Nicholas Breakspeare, the first English Pope, known as 'Adrian the Fourth,' to give him a document, afterwards known as 'The Papal Bull', which essentially 'deeded' to England the whole of Ireland, as if he owned the world. The English Jesuit Herbert Thurston declares that the conquest of Ireland was projected by Henry II, as early as 1156, and was carried out later with meticulous planning, with the full sanction of Pope Alexander ill, successor to Adrian IV.
