Primary Sources 232 2. Secondary Sources 242 Biographical Note 282 iv Statement of Fidelity The author offers the following licentiate thesis for the glory of God, the honor of the Immaculate Mother of God, the salvation of souls, and the exaltation of the Catholic Church founded by the Lord Jesus Christ upon St. Peter. The author, therefore, has sought to steadfastly preserve the deposit of faith in its integrity and to foster the common discipline of the whole Church. Nothing that follows is intended in any way whatsoever to deviate from the Christian obedience proper to the author’s state in life, but rather to faithfully articulate all that has been taught by the doctors and teachers of the faith. Thus, the author renews his profession of faith, professing each article of the symbol of faith, and holding with firm faith and as divinely revealed everything contained in Sacred Scripture, Tradition, and proposed by the Church, whether in solemn judgment or in the ordinary and universal Magisterium. The author desires that this thesis might be of service to priestly formators, spiritual directors, and seminarians in forming Marian priests for the twenty-first century. In all that follows, the author humbly submits to the unerring judgment of his mother, the Catholic Church, and confesses that any errors are his own. v To the memory of my father, GEORGE NELSON MARONEY who desired to have a priest for a son to hear his confession, but suddenly died December 15, 2014 before that was possible. Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen. vi Acknowledgments In sixteenth-century Spain, the intrepid reformer Saint Teresa of Jesus inaugurated an abiding renewal within the Carmelite family with the primary apostolic aim of praying for priests. For Saint Teresa, any true rebuilding of the Church must begin with the clergy, the pastors chosen by God to shepherd his flock. In this year of the Lord, 2019, the same vision inspires the author, a spiritual son of the mystical Doctor, to devote this protracted study to the relationship between integral initial priestly formation and the Virgin Mary; for Saint Teresa’s timeless foresight and maternal intercession, the author is eternally grateful. As a study concerned with the preparation of men for Holy Orders, the author recalls his debt of gratitude to those innumerable clerics whose priestly example nurtured his own vocation and modeled priestly fidelity permeated with Marian devotion. First, and in an exceptional way, the author wishes to thank the Reverend Father Daniel Mary of Jesus Crucified, Prior of the Monks of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary, who not only made this study possible by permitting countless hours of research and writing, but daily witnesses a priesthood of service animated by Mary’s spirit. Second, the author acknowledges the venerable Reverend Father Joseph Getz, an Augustinian friar who first demonstrated to the author a Marian priesthood and instilled in the author, while still a young boy serving at the Holy Altar, a love of Immaculate Mary. And, finally, the author expresses heartfelt appreciation to the Reverend Monsignor Frank Leo, a faithful friend and devout client of the Mother of God, who not only recognized the need and merit of this work from the beginning, but sacrificed the countless hours necessary to bring this thesis to completion. Since words fail to articulate the author’s immense indebtedness, the author can only pray, “May God reward each of you, as He alone can!” vii Abbreviations AAS Acta Apostolicae Sedis, Rome, 1909- AG Second Vatican Council, Decree on the Mission Activity of the Church Ad Gentes art(t). article (articles) c. canon ca circa cc. canons CCC Catechism of the Catholic Church cf. confer CIC/83 Codex Iuris Canonici, Auctoriate Ioannis Pauli PP.

  • Individual Confession Bishops Asked to Avoid Abuses of Generai Absolution by Agostino Bono VATICAN CITY (NC) - Pope John Paul II Has Told U.S
    The Denver Catholfc R j^tster JUNE 8, 1988 VOL. LXIV NO. 23 Colorado’s Largest Weekly 28 PAGES 25 CENTS Individual Confession Bishops asked to avoid abuses of generai absolution By Agostino Bono VATICAN CITY (NC) - Pope John Paul II has told U.S. bishops to promote greater individual Confession and to avoid abuses of general absolution. The sacrament of Penance is in crisis in many parts of the world because of “unwarranted interpretations’’ of the requirements for general absolution, he told a group of U.S. bishops May 31. The renewal process envisioned by the Second Vati­ can Council requires “the practice of integral and individual Confession of sins,’’ he added. The Pope said national bishops’ conferences must continuously promote better understanding of the re­ quirements for general absolution contained in canon law, the church’s legal code. “Sporadic efforts are not enough to overcome the crisis,’’ he said. Not criticizing U.S. One U.S. bishop who attended the papal meeting said the Pope was not criticizing U.S. practices but reiterating general principles. “I welcomed it," said Archbishop Thomas C. Kelly of Louisville, Ky. “It was encouragement to foster the sacrament of Penance.” The Pope spoke to 20 bishops from Louisiana, Ken­ tucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama and the Archdiocese for the Military Services.

  • "Catholic Church, Where Are You Going?" a Conference. That It Not Lose Its Way
    "Catholic Church, Where Are You Going?" A Conference. That It Not Lose Its Way Dm, 20/03/2018 URL article: http://magister.blogautore.espresso.repubblica.it/2018/03/20/catholic-church-whe … > Italiano > English > Español > Français > All the articles of Settimo Cielo in English * It is confirmed. Next April 7, the Saturday of Easter Week, a very special conference will be held in Rome. The intention of which will be to show the Catholic Church the way to go, after the uncertain journey of the first five years of the pontificate of Pope Francis. The reckoning of this five-year period, in fact, is rather critical, to judge from the title of the conference: “Catholic Church, where are you going?” And even more so if one looks at the subtitle: “Only a blind man can deny that in the Church there is great confusion.” This is taken from a statement of Cardinal Carlo Caffarra (1938-2017), not forgotten as an endorser, together with other cardinals, of those “dubia” submitted in 2016 to Pope Francis for the purpose of bringing clarity on the most controversial points of his magisterium, but which he has left without a response. In a Church seen as being set adrift, the key question that the conference will confront will be precisely that of redefining the leadership roles of the “people of God,” the characteristics and limitations of the authority of the pope and the bishops, the forms of consultation of the faithful in matters of doctrine. 1 These are questions that were thoroughly explored, in his time, by a great cardinal who is often cited both by progressives and by conservatives in support of their respective theses, Blessed John Henry Newman.

  • The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic
    The Catholic Church in the Czech Republic Dear Readers, The publication on the Ro- man Catholic Church which you are holding in your hands may strike you as history that belongs in a museum. How- ever, if you leaf through it and look around our beauti- ful country, you may discover that it belongs to the present as well. Many changes have taken place. The history of the Church in this country is also the history of this nation. And the history of the nation, of the country’s inhabitants, always has been and still is the history of the Church. The Church’s mission is to serve mankind, and we want to fulfil Jesus’s call: “I did not come to be served but to serve.” The beautiful and unique pastoral constitution of Vatican Coun- cil II, the document “Joy and Hope” begins with the words: “The joys and the hopes, the grief and the anxieties of the men of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the grief and anxieties of the followers of Christ.” This is the task that hundreds of thousands of men and women in this country strive to carry out. According to expert statistical estimates, approximately three million Roman Catholics live in our country along with almost twenty thousand of our Eastern broth- ers and sisters in the Greek Catholic Church, with whom we are in full communion. There are an additional million Christians who belong to a variety of other Churches. Ecumenical cooperation, which was strengthened by decades of persecution and bullying of the Church, is flourishing remarkably in this country.

"Kenotic Ecclesiology: Context, Orientations, Secularity," in Seekers and Dwellers: Plurality and Wholeness in a Time of Secularity. Ed. Philip J. Rossi.

Kenotic Ecclesiology: Context, Orientations, Secularity THOMAS HUGHSON, S.J. Four communicative disjunctions are ways in which, “the Catholic Church today is … out of phase with the world it wants to speak to.”1 Unless and until the influence of Pope Francis permeates the Church at all levels and in all contexts his charismatic leadership cannot be said to have changed this condition altogether. He surely has set a direction away from the clerical culture among bishops that abetted sweeping clergy abuse of minors under a rug of silent re-assignments. Even the Church now represented in the deeds and words of Francis cannot by-pass coming to grips with the disjunctions and with abuse. So George McLean’s theological response to the disjunctions and crisis of abuse remains a valid, long-term project. He advises nothing less than, “… rethinking the entire nature of the Church and its public presence in quite different, indeed kenotic, terms.” 2 That is a tall theological order. 3 What does a theological project of that scope involve? Outlining some directions along which to think about a kenotic theology of the Church draws on more than theological reflection and research.
