  • St. Mary's Seminary & University Annual Report 2017
    ST. MARY ’ S SEMINARY&UNIVERSITY Annual Report 2017 1 A N EW ERA IN SEMINARY FORMATION The Congregation for Clergy, the department of the Holy See that oversees seminary formation, recently issued a new Ratio Fundamentalis Institutionis Sacerdotalis containing the Vatican’s guidelines for seminary programs. This represents the initiation of a new era in seminary formation that takes into consideration the evolution of seminary programs and social and Rev. Phillip J. Brown, P.S.S. cultural changes that have occurred since the last Ratio in 1970 following the Second Vatican President Rector Council, and Pope St. John Paul II’s Pastores Dabo Vobis in 1992, both of which gave norms and guidance for seminary programs. Because these are so essential for the work we do, I wanted to let you know a little about this important new document and how it will affect St. Mary’s. Pastores dabo vobis has been the most important document for seminary formators and administrators since 1992. Pastores dabo vobis is the first official document that spoke of the “four pillars” of formation: Human; spiritual; intellectual; and pastoral. This year's Annual Report illuminates the ways our program integrates the four pillars. While Pastores dabo vobis alludes to the process of formation, its main emphasis is on the content of formation programs; hence the “four pillars” referred to on the pages that follow. The new Ratio , on the other hand, shifts emphasis to the process of formation, speaking of four “stages” of formation while not abandoning the content of the “four pillars” upon which sound formation must be anchored.

But as Christians, the urgency and L joy of our mission remains unchanged. For this reason, I felt the need to “update” my first pastoral letter,A Light Brightly Visible. In this present letter, I hope to share with you the encouragement that is ours in Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit. At the same time, I hope to recast a shared vision of creating parish communities as neighborhood centers of evangelization, where Christ is proclaimed, taught, and celebrated, and where missionary disciples are formed and sent forth. I situate these reflections on how Christ’s light burns brightly in each of us and in our families, and how we can nurture and share this light within our particular state of life and vocation. From there, I reflect on how the light of Christ shines in and through the life of our parishes and the Archdiocese as such, as I revisit six fundamental pastoral priorities for the renewal of parish life.

  • Monsignor Adam Parker, Cardinal O'brien's Priest-Secretary, Learns
    Monsignor Adam Parker, Cardinal O’Brien’s priest-secretary, learns from his mentor By George P. Matysek Jr. [email protected] Twitter: @ReviewMatysek Few people know Cardinal Edwin F. O’Brien as well as Monsignor Adam J. Parker. The former pastor of Church of the Ascension in Halethorpe has served as the cardinal’s priest-secretary from the moment Cardinal O’Brien arrived in Baltimore more than four years ago – driving the cardinal, maintaining his schedule, providing background information, managing events and offering daily support. It was a role Monsignor Parker never anticipated, yet one that has enriched his priesthood as he’s witnessed what he regards as a model of priestly devotion from a leader he calls a “tremendous mentor.” Monsignor Adam Parker is shown with then-Archbishop Edwin F. O’Brien at St. Ann in Hagerstown in 2009. (CR File) “He’s a very deeply spiritual man,” Monsignor Parker said of Cardinal O’Brien. “He has a very profound relationship with Jesus Christ and he’s very much devoted to the celebration of the Eucharist and eucharistic adoration. When I go to the chapel in the morning, he’s already there praying and when I leave the chapel at the end of the day, he’s still there.” Because Cardinal O’Brien was unfamiliar with the priests of the archdiocese, he asked his predecessor, Cardinal William H. Keeler, to select a priest-secretary for him. “Cardinal Keeler asked me to come to dinner and he said, ‘the new archbishop has asked me to select someone and you’re it,’ ” Monsignor Parker remembered, noting with a laugh that there was no question mark at the end of Cardinal Keeler’s announcement.
