FLOWERS IN THE SANCTUARY Offertory Envelopes: We encourage the use of offertory Week of January 24th envelopes. Wrap up your gift for Jesus each week. J. L. & Jeanette Franchebois NOTE: Norma Currier & Florine Guidry Please call the rectory to request a 2020 Lisa Comeaux contribution statement if needed for tax purposes. PLEASE CONSIDER ON-LINE GIVING Visit our website and click on “ON LINE GIVING” and follow the instructions. It’s that easy! OR CONSIDER USING OFFERTORY ENVELOPES Why should I use offertory envelopes? Because in a very materialistic world, followers of Jesus get distracted, so we need reminders. Envelopes help us organize and carefully think out our manner of giving to the Lord. Without envelopes, we tend to reach into our pockets at the last minute to pull out left-overs, what we do not really need. Thus, we easily end up giving to a waiter at a restaurant (the 15 to 20% tip), more than we give to the Lord each week. When something is special and important, we usually wrap the gift up. Using envelopes helps us “wrap up” our gift for Jesus each week, making it more beautiful and meaningful. Call the Parish Office to receive offertory envelopes. PARISH/DIOCESAN ANNOUNCEMENTS CONFESSIONS are held each Saturday from 10am to 11am in Church. This is due to Covid social distanc- ing restrictions which would make confession lines impossible to manage before Masses.

  • Cardinal Cajetan Renaissance Man
    CARDINAL CAJETAN RENAISSANCE MAN William Seaver, O.P. {)T WAS A PORTENT of things to come that St. Thomas J Aquinas' principal achievement-a brilliant synthesis of faith and reason-aroused feelings of irritation and confusion in most of his contemporaries. But whatever their personal sentiments, it was altogether too imposing, too massive, to be ignored. Those committed to established ways of thought were startled by the revolutionary character of his theological entente. William of la Mare, a representa­ tive of the Augustinian tradition, is typical of those who instinctively attacked St. Thomas because of the novel sound of his ideas without taking time out to understand him. And the Dominicans who rushed to the ramparts to vindicate a distinguished brother were, as often as not, too busy fighting to be able even to attempt a stone by stone ex­ amination of the citadel they were defending. Inevitably, it has taken many centuries and many great minds to measure off the height and depth of his theological and philosophical productions-but men were ill-disposed to wait. Older loyalities, even in Thomas' own Order, yielded but slowly, if at all, and in the midst of the confusion and hesitation new minds were fashioning the via moderna. Tempier and Kilwardby's official condemnation in 1277 of philosophy's real or supposed efforts to usurp theology's function made men diffident of proving too much by sheer reason. Scotism now tended to replace demonstrative proofs with dialectical ones, and with Ockham logic and a spirit of analysis de­ cisively supplant metaphysics and all attempts at an organic fusion between the two disciplines.

  • Most Rev. Emmanuel Suarez, OP Eightieth Master General
    DOMINICAN A Vol. XXXI DECEMBER, 1946 No.4 MOST REV. EMMANUEL SUAREZ, O.P. EIGHTIETH MASTER GENERAL NCE more a son of the Province of Spain has been chosen to lead the Friars Preachers. Ninety-two electors representing the 8,000 members of the Order throughout the world met Il at the Angelicum Pontifical University on September 21, and chose the Most Rev. Emmanuel Suarez, O.P., rector of the Angeli­ cum, as the Master General. Father Suarez is the eightieth Master General elected since Pope Honorius III approved the foundation of the Order in 1216. He suc­ ceeds Father Martin Stanislaus Gillet, who has been named Titular Archbishop of Nicea, by His Holiness Pope Pius XII. Father Gillet was elected seventeen years ago and held the office five years beyond the statutory twelve years because the war prevented a convocation of the General Chapter at the appointed time. The new Master General was born in Campomanes, Austurias, on November 5, 1895. Upon the completion of his early classical studies at Coriax in the province of Oviedo, he received the Dominican habit on August 28, 1913, and made his profession on August 30, 1914. He continued his studies in philosophy and theology at the University of Salamanca, where he earned degress with high honors. Following his Ordination at Salamanca, he was sent to the University of Madrid, to study Civil Law and was awarded his doctorate with highest honors. Shortly thereafter, Fr. Suarez :went to Rome for further studies at the Collegio Angelico. He took the course at the Roman Rota, for which he wrote his brilliant and widely known examination thesis, De Remotione Parochorum.

  • Origins and Development of Religious Orders
    ORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT OF RELIGIOUS ORDERS William A. Hinnebusch, O.P. The article is from a Journal: Review for Religious. It helps us to understand the CONTEXT of St Ignatius while founding the Society of Jesus. An attentive study of the origins and history of religious orders reveals that there are two primary currents in religious life--contemplative and apostolic. Vatican II gave clear expression to this fact when it called on the members of every community to "combine contemplation with apostolic love." It went on to say: "By the former they adhere to God in mind and heart; by the latter they strive to associate themselves with the work of redemption and to spread the Kingdom of God" (PC, 5). The orders founded before the 16th century, with the possible exception of the military orders, recognized clearly the contemplative element in their lives. Many of them, however, gave minimum recognition to the apostolic element, if we use the word "apostolic" in its present-day meaning, but not if we understand it as they did. In their thinking, the religious life was the Apostolic life. It reproduced and perpetuated the way of living learned by the Apostles from Christ and taught by them to the primitive Church of Jerusalem. Since it was lived by the "Twelve," the Apostolic life included preaching and the other works of the ministry. The passage describing the choice of the seven deacons in the Acts of the Apostles clearly delineates the double element in the Apostolic life and underlines the contemplative spirit of the Apostles.
