  • Bishop Martin Marty September 19Th Is the Anniversary of the Death of Bishop Martin Marty
    Bishop Martin Marty September 19th is the anniversary of the death of Bishop Martin Marty. Aloys Marty was born in the town of Schwyz, Canton Schwyz, Switzerland, on January 13, 1834. He began his higher studies in Fribourg with the Jesuits. As a student he learned of the work of the Jesuit priest, Father Pierre De Smet, promoter of the Jesuit missions in the Rocky Mountains of North America. Father De Smet's missionary work aroused in the young Marty a desire to work among the Indians. In 1848, after the expulsion of the Jesuits in Europe, Aloys Marty continued his course of studies with the Benedictines at Einsiedeln. He professed his vows as a monk of the Abbey of Maria Einsiedeln on May 20, 1855, receiving the name Martin. He was ordained to the priesthood on September 14, 1856. After ordination, he was first assigned as a teacher in the Gymnasium at Einsiedeln. Later, he was transferred to teach- ing moral theology. In September of 1860, he was sent to the United States to assist at the newly founded monastery of St. Meinrad in Indiana. In 1865 he was appointed prior of St. Meinrad. When the foundation was raised to the status of an abbey on September 30, 1870, Pope Pius IX ap- pointed Father Martin Marty the first abbot. It was during Abbot Martin's abbacy that our monastery was founded by St. Meinrad Abbey on March 15, 1878. On August 12, 1879, Abbot Martin Marty was appointed Vicar Apostolic of the Dakota Territory and was consecrated bishop on February 1, 1880.

  • 1 European Ethno-Nationalist and White Supremacy Groups Key
    European Ethno-Nationalist and White Supremacy Groups Key Findings • European far-right ethno-nationalist groups have cast immigrants as a scapegoat for economic hardship faced by young Europeans. Rather than promote overt white supremacy, these groups denigrate minorities—particularly Muslim immigrants—as detrimental to European culture. • Far-right political parties like Germany’s Alternative für Deutschland and Italy’s Lega Nord have been able to generate substantial popular support by promising to defend their respective countries against the cultural attacks of immigrants and foreign influences, and have consequently made gains in domestic parliamentary elections. • Groups like Les Identitaires and its youth wing, Generation Identity, have renounced violence in favor of utilizing social media and public demonstrations to portray themselves as legitimate, mainstream movements protecting European culture. These groups have directly targeted Europe’s youth through social media and public demonstrations. • Groups including Combat 18 and the Nordic Resistance Movement, which openly embrace neo-Nazi ideology and violent tactics, are still able to recruit for violent activities, despite the rise of non-violent, populist groups. Executive Summary More than 70 years after the defeat of Nazi Germany, ethno-nationalist and white supremacist movements in Europe continue to thrive. They include far-right political parties, neo-Nazi movements, and apolitical protest groups. Some groups openly espouse violent white supremacy, while others have

  • The Blood of Love
    The blood of love The martyrs of Algeria (1994-1996) The Church of Algeria This booklet presents a group of nineteen martyrs of the Church of Algeria. All were passionate about their Church, of which they were zealous servants, and passionate also about Algeria and its people where they had weaved their friendships. Humble and gentle, the Lord radiated from their hearts, in their lives and in their silence. They witnessed to a settled, lucid faith, the faith of those preparing the space for dialogue in their prayer and in their presence. They are a very beautiful image of the Church of Algeria: small, a few thousand faithful people, dispersed in four dioceses: Alger, Oran, Constantine- Ippone et Laghouat. It is a living Church by its poverty as it has lost its social power and pomp. Daily, it lives love and service. Thus purified and without ambitions, it can be a bridgehead for dialogue with Islam. The small Church of Algeria is conscious that On the cover: it is living a prophetic Our Lady of Africa – mission, that of creating Cathedral of Algiers. 2 • THE BLOOD OF LOVE for tomorrow the climate for The Church of Algeria does not a most peaceful dialogue forget that it is the inheritor between the Christian faith and of Saint Augustine, the Moslem faith, in the Saint Cyprian and Tertullien. certitude that we are all sons These are all men of light that and daughters of God, the work prepared times of change. of his hands and that the sons The prophetical nature of the and daughters of God will finish small Church of Algeria will by recognising each other.

    N. 0861 Domenica 03.12.2017 Conferenza Stampa del Santo Padre nel volo di ritorno dal Viaggio Apostolico in Myanmar e Bangladesh Testo in lingua orginale Traduzione in lingua francese Traduzione in lingua inglese Traduzione in lingua tedesca Traduzione in lingua spagnola Traduzione in lingua portoghese Traduzione in lingua polacca Ieri sera, durante il volo che da Dacca a Roma lo riportava a Roma, al termine del Viaggio Apostolico in Myanmar e in Bangladesh, il Santo Padre Francesco ha incontrato i giornalisti a bordo dell’aereo in una conferenza stampa, la cui trascrizione riportiamo di seguito: Testo in lingua originale Greg Burke: Grazie, Santo Padre, innanzitutto grazie. Lei ha scelto due Paesi interessanti da visitare, due Paesi molto diversi ma con qualcosa in comune, che è una Chiesa piccola, in ciascuno di questi Paesi, ma attiva, piena di gioia, piena di giovani e piena di uno spirito di servizio a tutta la società. Noi certamente abbiamo visto tanto, abbiamo imparato tanto, ma ci interessa anche [sapere] cosa Lei ha visto e cosa ha imparato Lei. 2 Papa Francesco: Buonasera, se pensiamo qui, o buon pomeriggio, se pensiamo a Roma. Grazie tante per il vostro lavoro. Come ha detto Greg, sono due Paesi molto interessanti con culture molto tradizionali, profonde, ricche. Per questo penso che il vostro lavoro sia stato molto intenso. Grazie tante. Sagrario Ruiz de Apodaca (Radio Nacional de España): Buona sera, Santo Padre. Grazie. Io faccio la domanda in spagnolo, con il permesso dei miei colleghi italiani, perché non mi fido ancora del mio italiano, ma se Lei vuole rispondere in italiano sarebbe perfetto per tutti.
