Karabin while Karabin was assigned to St. Joan of Arc. Bishop Vincent Leonard then sent a letter to the House of Affirmation, a treatment center, notifying them that Karabin would arrive on March 25, 1980 for an evaluation with respect to the "incident" which Leonard advised he did not want to describe in the letter. Karabin was returned to active ministry after he completed treatment. In March, 1985, Father Raymond Froelich, Pastor of St. Albert the Great where Karabin was assigned as Parochial Vicar, notified Bishop Bevilacqua of another child whom Father Karabin had sexually abused. On March 7, 1985, two memorandums by Bishop Bosco documented a meeting held between himself and Karabin in with respect to the new report. Bosco advised Karabin that he would have to be reassigned due to the complaint. Karabin agreed, but "did not seem happy" with the possibility that his reassignment may not be immediate due to this being a "recurrence of a previous problem." According to Karabin, this "latest incident" was caused by stress he was under from not having his own pastorate.

  • HISTORY of the NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE for GIRL SCOUTS and CAMP FIRE by Virginia Reed
    Revised 3/11/2019 HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE FOR GIRL SCOUTS AND CAMP FIRE By Virginia Reed The present National Catholic Committee for Girl Scouts and Camp Fire dates back to the early days of the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) and the National Catholic Welfare Conference. Although it has functioned in various capacities and under several different names, this committee's purpose has remained the same: to minister to the Catholic girls in Girl Scouts (at first) and Camp Fire (since 1973). Beginnings The relationship between Girl Scouting and Catholic youth ministry is the result of the foresight of Juliette Gordon Low. Soon after founding the Girl Scout movement in 1912, Low traveled to Baltimore to meet James Cardinal Gibbons and consult with him about her project. Five years later, Joseph Patrick Cardinal Hayes of New York appointed a representative to the Girl Scout National Board of Directors. The cardinal wanted to determine whether the Girl Scout program, which was so fine in theory, was equally sound in practice. Satisfied on this point, His Eminence publicly declared the program suitable for Catholic girls. In due course, the four U.S. Cardinals and the U.S. Catholic hierarchy followed suit. In the early 1920's, Girl Scout troops were formed in parochial schools and Catholic women eagerly became leaders in the program. When CYO was established in the early 1930's, Girl Scouting became its ally as a separate cooperative enterprise. In 1936, sociologist Father Edward Roberts Moore of Catholic charities, Archdiocese of New York, studied and approved the Girl Scout program because it was fitting for girls to beome "participating citizens in a modern, social democracy." This support further enhanced the relationship between the Catholic church and Girl Scouting.

  • History of St. Valentine Faith Community
    History of St. Valentine Faith Community “The new church is the visible symbol of the fulfillment of many years of patient labors and countless sacrifices on the part of the priests, religious and people who have seen the territory of their parish develop from a tired mining district into an inviting area where thousands of families take pride in their community.” These were the words of Bishop John J. Wright, who dedicated the present Catholic Church of St. Valentine in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, in 1967. Now in the golden jubilee year of 1981, the priests, religious and people of St. Valentine’s Church are able to look back with gratitude on a full half century of development and fulfillment. As they begin their second half century, they rededicate themselves to a life with Christ in the fellowship of their families and the community in which they continue to take pride. How Saint Valentine’s Began In the summer of 1923 Father Gerold, Pastor of St. Ann’s Church in Castle Shannon, began giving catechism instructions to children of Catholic parents in the little mining community of Coverdale. A few months later, Father Gerold obtained permission from Bishop Hugh C. Boyle to celebrate Holy Mass for approximately 70 Catholic families employed at Mine No. 8 of the Pittsburgh Terminal Coal. Co. That Mass, in a company-owned home which still stands today on South Park Road near Church Road, was the beginning of St. Valentine’s Parish. It was not until two years later that Father Gerold could buy a plot of ground at the corner of West Library Avenue and Ohio Street as the site for a church.

MARCELO SÁNCHEZ SORONDO ‘Remota itaque iustitia quid sunt regna nisi magna latrocinia?’ (St Augustine, De Civ. Dei, IV, 4; PL. 41, 115) ‘Nowhere that the human being makes himself the one lord of the world and owner of himself can justice exist. There, it is only the desire for power and private interests that can prevail’ (Benedict XVI, Homily of 2 October 2005) I am very conscious of the declaration of the Supreme Pontiff John Paul II, the first Polish Pope in history and thus a man from a country that has suffered great injustice, to the effect that ‘Peace is born not only from the elimination of theatres of war. Even if all these latter were eliminated oth- ers would inevitably appear, if injustice and oppression continue to govern the world. Peace is born of justice: Opus iustitiae pax’.1 The almost imme- morial origin of the idea of justice, its emergence beyond the mythical matrix of Greek tragedy, and the perpetuation of its divine connotations in secular societies, shows that the sense of justice is not limited to the con- struction of legal systems, which, however it never ceases to generate and nourish.2 Writing within a context of realism, St Thomas Aquinas affirmed 1 John Paul II, Address to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, 12 November 1983, in The Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Papal Addresses to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences 1917-2002 and to the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences 1994-2002.

  • The UN's Anti-Zionism Resolution: Christian Responses
    The UN's Anti-Zionism Resolution: Christian Responses by Judith Hershcopf Banki THE AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE Institute of Human Relations 165 East 56 Street, New York, N.Y. 10022 J CONTENTS PREFACE. INTRODUCTION. ROMAN CATHOLIC RESPONSES... CATHOLIC PRESS COMMENTARY PROTESTANT, ORTHODOX AND EVANGELICAL REACTIONS.... REGIONAL AND LOCAL CHURCH ASSOCIATIONS........ PROTESTANT AND ORTHODOX PRESS COMMENTS........ ECUMENICAL AND INTERRELIGIOUS RESPONSES CAMPUS MINISTRIES. .'. OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS SUGGESTED READING. PREFACE The resolution proposed by radical Arab nations and their allies that sought to stigmatize Zionism as "a form of raicsm and racial discrimination" was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on November 10, 1975. This survey of Chris• tian responses to the UN's anti-Zionism resolution documents reactions from representative Christian leaders and institu• tions during the several months following the adoption of that declaration. Under normal circumstances, this study—even though it is the most comprehensive and well-documented of its kind would be regarded as an historic record of a past event, perhaps mainly of interest to interreligious historians. Unfortunately, the campaign to defame and discredit Zionism did not subside with that episode; it is a continuing effort, and more than likely augurs a pattern of future threats and challenges to the Jewish community. Later meetings of the UN Economic and Social Commission (May 1976) were the scene of vicious harangues intended to caricature
