On February 1St, the Downtown Serra Club Was On February 1st, the Downtown Serra club was pleased to hear author Mary Francis Cody speak about her 7th book “George and Pauline Vanier: Portrait of a Couple.” Few figures have had as lasting an influence on Canadian institutions, history, politics and culture as George and Pauline Vanier. George (1888-1967) a decorated military officer, became the first Canadian ambassador to France and the first Catholic French-Canadian governor general in Canada. Pauline (1898-1991), a respected humanitarian, Privy Council member and university chancellor, shared her husband’s responsibilities and helped shape his thoughts on religion, foreign and domestic affairs. George and Pauline Vanier follows their lives and travels across the world – from Canadian military life to the League of Nations, from the inner circles of British government to their harrowing escape from Nazi- occupied France – detailing their enduring faith in God throughout the disappointments and triumphs during social and political turbulence. Revealing their remarkable vibrant personalities, Mary Francis detailed the couple’s support of the French resistance as well as George Vanier’s pleas to the Canadian Government to accept refugees fleeing Hitler’s horrors and his efforts to broaden immigration policy. Most importantly for our members, Mary Frances recounted the importance of their religious convictions and their spiritual quest in their marriage and family life. Mary Frances has been involved in religious journalism for over thirty years, and has been involved as a teacher in the field of professional communications at Ryerson University for the last 20 years. She currently teaches an on-line course for Ryerson University. Kathleen Ancker Editors Note: George Vanier has 33schools, 14 streets and 5 buildings named after him. He has received 6 appointments, 3 military decorations, 10 Canadian medals, 5 foreign medals, 5 honorary military appointments and several honorary degrees The Vocations Fair held at Transfiguration Church in Etobicoke on January 28 and 29th was another successful endeavour. Thirty five religious and secular organizations had displays which were well patronised. The new Downtown display was well received. The I Pad draw for students who visited 25 or more displays, was won by Chelsea Wall, age 16 from Michael Power St. Joseph School. There were seven schools represented. Coming Events: March 6 Ordinandi Dinner Convention Center, 2638 Steele Ave. E Brampton Mar. 14 Officer & Trustee Meeting Mar 21 Professor Jack Freiburger, Religious Education in Churchill Falls April 4 Speaker Bishop McGrattan April 21 Spring Conference, St. Bonaventure Parish 1300 Leslie St. Nov. 3 Altar Servers Awards, St. Paul’s Basilica The number of Catholics grew by 1.4% 2005 - 2006 Number of priests by scant .21% for the same period. Under Attack The U.S Army has removed a cross displayed outside a chapel at a military base in Afghanistan. News of the removal was greeted as a victory by the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers. Three Christmas Crosses which stood on state property for decades next to a scenic overlook in North San Diego were removed at 5 am by the California Department of Transportation. Jesus Christ is included in a list of 160 words banned in text messages by the communications authority. One of the world’s beloved songstresses will have one of her pieces, Hymne a l’amour, censored at a Quebec primary school near Montreal by a music teacher, due to a reference to God. The1949 song by Edith Piaf ends with the line “God reunites those who love.” He said he didn’t want to answer student questions about God. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ban the word “God” at funerals for veterans, requires grieving families to submit prayers or religious messages to the government before a funeral for approval and hid the bible and cross that were once placed in the cemetery chapel. “More Than a Monologue” conferences co-sponsored by two Jesuit Universities are, according to the Cardinal Newman Society, a well-orchestrated attempt to undermine the Church’s doctrine and its stand against homosexual ‘marriage’. Speakers questioned the Catholic teaching on homosexuality, alleged the Vatican’s “official repression” of gay priests, said that the Catholic Church would be much better off if all of its priests were having sex with each other and disputed the necessity of priests for consecration of the Eucharist at Catholic Mass. The Arcus foundation paid $100,000 for the “More Than a Monologue” conferences that could be fairly described as designed to undermine Catholic teaching on homosexuality. In addition to the two conferences at Fordham and Fairfield, conferences were held at Yale Divinity School and Union Theological Seminary, which included a fake Mass without a celebrant called “CatholiQ” (Q stands for Queer). Lead conference coordinator was theologian Paul Lakeland. The monologues were defended by activist Sister Jeannine Gramick. Congratulations Cardinal Thomas Collins Born in Guelph Ont.

Salutations for a Cardinal Envelope-His Eminence Thomas Collins Archbishop of Toronto. ( residence for personal correspondence. Chancery for official correspondence.) Salutation Your Eminence (normal) or Most Eminent Cardinal (formal) or My Lord Cardinal (very formal) CEO of 1.9 million Catholics…a winning team Tim Tebow Those familiar with the NFL might have heard of Tebow for more than his unique style as quarterback. His outward expressions of his Christian faith are being talked about by all sorts of commentators, in the world of American football and beyond. Though not the only athlete to publicly express his faith on the field, Tebow is drawing more attention than usual as he drops a knee to give thanks after a touchdown or prays with other players including opponents after a game that attracts people: it is entire person.” When asked if Tebow’s public expression of faith is positive or negative, Father Lixey, who works in the Roman Curia helping the Church promote a sports culture suitable to the integral development of the individual, replied “I consider it something very positive. Even back during the 2009 Bowl Championship Series, Tebow wrote “John 3:16” on his black patch and 92 million people googled the verse following the game … impressive. Can You Hear Him? The popular vocation discernment program for young adults 18-35, held its second session of the series Feb.11th at St. Bernard’s Residence, 685 Finch West.. 33 participants, including University students, teachers, an OPP officer, computer engineers, University Chaplain, and financial and business professionals. The participants came from the GTA, Brampton and Oshawa areas. Father Allan McDonald, Vocation Director of the Companions of the Cross leads the seminar. During Mass his homily spoke of the message of the Immaculate Conception to St. Bernadette and the lesson of the seven loaves of bread. Sister Marguerite Marie CPS shared her vocation story. Following Mass the group enjoyed refreshments and fellowship supplied by the sponsors, the Serra Club of Toronto Downtown. The program is co-ordinated by Zinnia Milburn, Vice President of Vocations. .

    1 OBITUARY Dr. Thérèse Vanier taught lessons in dying and healing SANDRA MARTIN Special to The Globe and Mail Published Sunday, Jul. 27 2014, 8:17 PM EDT Last updated Sunday, Jul. 27 2014, 8:17 PM EDT There’s a documentary from the 1970s in which a BBC journalist takes a film crew to Little Ewell, the first l’Arche community in England, to interview Thérèse Vanier, its director. The journalist is trying to plumb the concept of a faith-based community, in which the mentally disabled live in harmony with volunteers or “assistants,” not as charges under care, but as equal participants. Gently, Dr. Vanier, a tall, elegant woman with a silver helmet of hair who resembles International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde, explains that the weaker members of society have a great deal to give, but we rarely give them the chance because they are so often pushed to the fringes. “Are there spiritual benefits that I, as an outsider, am excluded [from], because I am not in contact with the mentally handicapped?” the journalist asks. Regarding him patiently, Dr. Vanier delicately suggests that he might accrue some spiritual benefits by looking “at the weak and apparently foolish,” and asking, “is there something there I can learn? Is there something in these people that is going to bring me closer to God?” That quest, expressed simply but compellingly, is a key to Dr. Vanier’s life. The only daughter of former governor-general Georges Vanier, she was a decorated veteran of the Second World War, a distinguished hematologist at London’s St.

  • Michael Higgin's Jean Vanier: Logician of The
    “Michael Higgin’s Jean Vanier: Logician of the Heart is an eloquent and moving meditation on what it means to be truly human in a ‘throwaway’ culture where competition, corporate greed, and inequality reign supreme. Vanier’s work among the physically and intellectually vulnerable reveals the cost and joy of radical love. By emphasizing our common frailty and the openness and capacity of the disabled to allow Jesus to find repose in their hearts—he challenges us to enflesh tenderness in our own lives, become ‘God’s refuge’ in a largely uncaring world. A book to be treasured and reread.” —James Clarke, poet, judge, author of L’Arche Journal: A Family’s Experience in Jean Vanier’s Community “This is a brilliant exposition of an extraordinary man and the many influences that have shaped him and his prophetic vision. Higgins has entered deeply into Vanier’s life story and presents it with fascinating detail. I have known Vanier and been involved with his L’Arche communities since the mid-sixties but every chapter of this beautiful book reveals to me new dimensions of both the man and his life work.” —Bill Clarke, SJ Spiritual Director, Ignatius Jesuit Centre, Guelph, Ontario “Since 1964, Jean Vanier and many friends, with and without intellectual disabilities, have lived in community together. These international communities of L’Arche, and Faith and Light, show that peace on earth and goodwill among all people is possible. Michael Higgins brings his characteristic enthusiasm and wide-ranging cultural interests to this personal interpretation of the life and legacy of Jean Vanier.” —Carolyn Whitney-Brown, PhD, editor of Jean Vanier: Essential Writings People of God Remarkable Lives, Heroes of Faith People of God is a series of inspiring biographies for the general reader.

  • Steve and Ann Newroth, Founders of L’Arche Daybreak
    The Seeding of L’Arche in Canada The Story of Steve and Ann Newroth, Founders of L’Arche Daybreak How was L’Arche born in the minds and hearts of the bright, sophisticated young Canadians who brought it to Canada? What fired their imaginations to put aside their plans to follow a respected career path into the Anglican ministry and rather to live in a 200‐year old farmhouse, used for a time as a stable, in a tiny French village far from the amenities of a city and to welcome three men to share it with them who could not read or write or carry on any kind of in‐depth conversation and who needed help with the basic skills of living? Steve and Ann Newroth are that couple, and this is the story that lies behind the founding of L’Arche in Canada. The early 1960s were a hopeful time in North America and a time of many changes in the ways people thought and lived. Both the USA and Canada had recovered from World War II and become prosperous. The United Nations had been created, it was a time of optimism, and many people felt they could build a better world. It was the era of the hippies and experiments in different ways of living together, especially on the West Coast of the USA. It was the Kennedy era and the period of the Peace Corps, and in Canada, of CUSO and The Company of Young Canadians, and there was a growing consciousness of human rights and of disparities in society.
