Certainly the Jews – “the lost sheep of the house of Israel” But what about the Canaanite Woman whose daughter was tormented by a demon? Who would be admitted to his Holy Mountain? This questioned what was debated by the prophets. Isaiah tells us that salvation is possible for those who keep the Sabbath and hold fast to the covenant. Indeed foreigners could join themselves to the Lord. As the Canaanite Woman approaches Jesus she does so in the form of prayer… “Lord, Son of David”, but Jesus doesn’t answer her at all.” As she persists, Jesus responds that, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” She was on the outside looking in.

  • Father Giovanni Gaddo (8Th Provost General)
    Father Giovanni Gaddo (8th Provost General) by Domenico Mariani (Translated by J. Anthony Dewhirst) Is it possible that a little boy of 12 could be convinced that he had a religious vocation, to the point of devoting himself to serve the Lord all his life with the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience in a religious Institute? Would he have sufficient maturity and knowledge of his own powers and human life to be definitely sure about it? Or would it not rather be autosuggestion, domestic economic problems, or the influence of some good person influencing his choice? We know how modern psychologists would answer these questions. But we can say positively and absolutely ‘yes’. This is borne out by the reality of the facts; for instance, his life, the supernatural gift of a religious vocation, in which grace is grafted on to human nature, and incessant prayer reinforcing his human efforts. Giovanni Ferdinando Angelo Gaddo was born of Carlo and Maria Amiotti at Vercelli, the Casa Borgogna in the Via del Duomo, on 7 February1895. His father was a worker in marble, and this work provided for the upkeep of the family. His mother was a housewife and died early (1903?), so little Giovanni and his sister Lucia (a year his junior) were looked after by their grandmother. But she also passed away in 1907 and the Parish Priest of Crescentino, Don Pietro Gianotti, taking an interest in the family, wrote to Don Policarpo Garibaldi, the Novice Master at Calvario in Domodossola, in order that he might intercede with the Provincial, Giambattista Pagani, to accept the boy into the Institute of Charity.

  • With Trusting Hope
    WITH TRUSTING HOPE Writings by Don Luigi Caburlotto Analysis of his educational method ANNA BALDUIT – BRUNA BIANCHIN MARIA TERSA STEFANI – TANIA DA RIOS Introduction by GIUSEPPE GOISIS INSTITUTE “DAUGHTERS OF ST. JOSEPH” VENETIAN CATHOLIC STUDIUM 1 PREFACE Luigi Caburlotto (1817-1897) was a priest of action in the diocese of Venice, he had been a parish priest in S. Giacomo dell’Orio for twenty-two years, but for a longer period he was engaged in an educational work of assistance and redemption of the young ones,, mainly of those who were more exposed to the sad consequences of poverty and to the dangers of an inadequate moral formation. He founded the institute of the Daughters of St. Joseph to set up his undertaking and to ensure its continuity; after the necessary adaptations to the new social and cultural situations today this institute is still continuing with tenaciousness, intelligence and generous dedication along the furrow that he traced. A priest of action but inspired from above: the texts and the notes of his meditations and of his sermons, although with the limits of the biblical and theological culture of the time, show the evidence of his careful listening to the Word of God. Besides he was solicitous in the study and reflection on the problems that a wise education would put to those who meant to contribute to the maturation of the young consciences. His writings that have a pedagogical mark are gathered in the present volume in order to put them first of all, at the disposal of the religious Sisters and of the teachers of the schools where the Institute of S.

  • Latin in Seminaries/A
    Fœderatio Internationalis Una Voce Positio N. 12 THE TEACHING OF LATIN IN SEMINARIES OCTOBER 2012 From the General Introduction These papers, commissioned by the International Federation Una Voce , are offered to stimulate and inform debate about the 1962 Missal among Catholics ‘attached to the ancient Latin liturgical tradition’, and others interested in the liturgical renewal of the Church. They are not to be taken to imply personal or moral criticism of those today or in the past who have adopted practices or advocated reforms which are subjected to criticism. In composing these papers we adopt the working assumption that our fellow Catholics act in good will, but that nevertheless a vigorous and well-informed debate is absolutely necessary if those who act in good will are to do so in light of a proper understanding of the issues. The authors of the papers are not named, as the papers are not the product of any one person, and also because we prefer them to be judged on the basis of their content, not their authorship. The International Federation Una Voce humbly submits the opinions contained in these papers to the judgement of the Church. The Teaching of Latin in Seminaries: Abstract The question of Latin as a liturgical language has been dealt with in a previous paper; here the issue of Latin as the common language of the Church is addressed. The importance of Latin as a component of seminary education has been stressed before, at, and following the Second Vatican Council, but not only because of its liturgical importance: its wider importance is that it makes possible communication between generations (from the past to the present, and from the present to future generations) and between nations, in a stable language which can be learnt by all.
