II LITTERAE DECRETALES quibus beatae Angelae a Cruce Guerrero y Gonza´lez sanctorum honores decernuntur. IOANNES PAULUS EPISCOPUS servus servorum dei ad perpetuam rei memoriam « Verbum enim crucis pereuntibus quidem stultitia est, his autem, qui salvi fiunt, id est nobis, virtus Dei est » (1 Cor 1,18). Apostoli Pauli doctrinam sequens beata Angela a Cruce fideliter Christum Crucifixum dilexit, quem per semitas abnegationis diligentiaeque est secuta, qui penitus eius signavit vitam quique fons fuit eius abnegationis, diligentiae caritatisque. Sanctificare se ipsam voluit eandem ac Iesu percurrens viam, crucis scilicet iter, proximum amans in humilitate et paupertate atque seve- ram exercens paenitentiam. Christi haec discipula die xxx mensis Ianuarii anno mdcccxlvi Hispali, in Hispania, ex Francisco Guerrero et Iosepha Gon- za´lez est nata, in familia omnino simplici et paupere in qua precem et amorem erga pauperes omnesque qui in difficultatibus versantur didicit. Scholam tantummodo primariam frequentavit, quam reliquit ut familiam adiuvaret, atque veluti adulescens navitatem cepit in calceamentorum opificio ubi ro- sarium recitabatur et ubi ista primas habebat mysticas experientias. Domini vocem sentiens, xix annos nata, ingredi voluit, moderatore spiritali appro- bante, Carmelitarum discalceatarum monasterium Hispali et Filiarum Cari- tatis communitatem, sed, ob corporis debilitatem, non est accepta. Curam deinde de familiis pauperibus egit et victimis morbi cholerae. Anno mdccclxxi promisit, prope pedes Christi Crucifixi, consilia evangelica se servaturam. Die 250 Acta Apostolicae Sedis – Commentarium Officiale ii mensis Augusti anno mdccclxxv initium « Sororibus Societatis Crucis » dedit. Duos post annos vota nuncupavit temporaria et, anno mdccclxxviii, perpe- tua. Propositum Instituti est, praeter ipsarum Sororum sanctificationem, vario modo spiritalique praesertim consolatione curam erga aegrotos agere. Angela a Cruce Institutospiritum dedit laetitiae, simplicitatis, humil itatis diligentisque cotidiani apostolatus. Munus generalis moderatricis exercens, singularem demonstravit sapientiam, deinde vero humiliter novae antistitae est submissa, spiritales adhortans filias ad altiorem usque oboedientiam. Fide eminuit peculiari atque spe in Deum eiusque Providentiam. Libenti animo pauperes adiuvit se ipsam pauperem considerans. Anno mcmxxxi coagulatione cerebri est paralysi correpta. Longam post colluctationem, Sacramentis ac- ceptis, pie in Domino die ii mensis Martii anno mcmxxxii in urbe Hispalensi obdormivit. Beata Angela a Cruce, quae magnum impulsum habuit in Ec- clesiam ac societatem Hispalis illius aetatis, solida etiam gavisa est sanctita- tis fama. Archiepiscopus Hispalensis anno mcmxxxviii causam incohavit bea- tificationis canonizationisque. Omnibus de iure diligenter expletis, Nos Ipsi die v mensis Novembris anno mcmlxxxii Hispali sollemni modo Angelam a Cruce declaravimus Beatam.

  • The Development of Sacrosanctum Concilium Part 2 Or, How to Grok
    The development of Sacrosanctum Concilium Part 2 - a presentation by Seán O’Seasnáin on becoming familiar with Vatican II and the Liturgy with a focus on Chapter 4 of What Happened at Vatican II by John W. O’Malley The Lines Are Drawn - The First Period (1962) or, How to grok Sacrosanctum Concilium (SC) while avoiding moonbats and wingnuts from the vantage point of a young Irish friar in formation at the time of Vatican II The four aggiornamento modernization principles identified by John W. O’Malley p140f 1) ressourcement 2) adaptation 3) episcopal collegiality and 4) active participation (Ch.4 of What Happened at Vatican II) are correctly described by O’Malley as fundamental and traditional principles. In a harsh and pedantic review of What Happened at Vatican II the late Richard John Neuhaus, on one hand gives O’Malley back-handed compliments for his balanced analysis, and in the next sentence rushes in to castigate him with misleading accusations of presenting the ‘discontinuity’ perspective of the council. Neuhaus writes dismissively: “What Happened at Vatican II is a 372-page brief for the party of novelty and discontinuity. Its author comes very close to saying explicitly what is frequently implied: that the innovationists practiced subterfuge, and they got away with it” [10]. I would have to credit Neuhaus with providing a reminder here of how appropriate the ‘moonbat’ and ‘wingnut’ designations are when it comes to critiques of Vatican II and the liturgy. He writes: “In the decades following the council, many liberals made no secret of their belief that aggiornamento was a mandate for radical change, even revolution.

  • Pope John the Twenty-Third and Master John Hus of Bohemia
    POPE JOHN THE TWENTY-THIRD AND MASTER JOHN HUS OF BOHEMIA POPE JOHN THE TWENTY-THIRD AND MASTER JOHN HUS OF BOHEMIA BY EUSTACE J. KITTS A. UTHOR OF 'IN THE DAYS OF THE COUNCILS' ILLUSTRATED LONDON CONSTABLE AND COMPANY LIMITED 10 ORANGE STREET LEICESTER SQUARE 1910 INTRODUCTION IN this book I have endeavoured to narrate the five years' history of three men and a movement; the men are Pope John the Twenty-third, John Hus, the patriot reformer of Bohemia, and Sigismund, King of the Romans; and the movement is the conciliar movement up to the middle of the year 1415. I have already, in my book entitled In the Days ef the Councils, given the history of Baldassare Cossa, who became Pope John the Twenty-third, up to the death of Pope Alexander the Fifth. Baldassare Cossa was in no sense a hero; there were indeed very few heroes in those days. One thing which makes history so much more interesting than fiction is that the characters have their human frailties as well as their human virtues. 'Il n'y a pas,' says M. Boissier, 'de gens parfaits que dans les romans.' Baldassare Cossa was simply a strong man placed in a position for which he had striven hut for which he was eminently unfit, struggling with adversity. It is in the struggle that the interest of his story lies. Up till the battle of Rocca Secca all went well with him; after that, Fate was consistentlv against him. He had the misfortune to have for an enemy one of the foremost literary men of his time; and literary men then said all that they knew was true, all that they thought was true, and much that they hoped was true.

  • GUIDELINES for CONCERTS in CHURCH DIOCESE of HARRISBURG Office of Worship
    GUIDELINES FOR CONCERTS IN CHURCH DIOCESE OF HARRISBURG Office of Worship BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION The Church holds a vast and wonderful treasure of sacred and religious music that continually lifts the mind and heart to God. Sacred music, whether vocal or instrumental, has an integral place in our history and worship. The recent documents of Vatican II, namely, the Constitution on the Liturgy Sacrosanctum Concilium, the Instruction Musicam Sacram, the Instruction Liturgicae Instauratione, as well as the prescriptions of the Code of Canon Law, Canons 1210, 1213 and 1222 treat of the integrity and importance of music in the life of the Church. Some types of sacred music do not always have a proper place within the liturgical celebration. Gounod’s “Sanctus” from the Mass of Saint Cecilia is certainly a beautiful and spiritually moving piece, but no longer has a place during the Sunday Mass. It is not only lengthy but does not allow for the active participation of the faithful during the prominent acclamation. The “Gloria” by John Rutter, a contemporary composer and conductor, another marvelous piece of sacred music, would not have an appropriate place in the liturgy because of its length (more than seventeen minutes). Yet such magnificent music deserves to be fostered and preserved. This is done not only in recordings, but also in concerts held in public places. The increase in the number of concerts in general has given rise to a more frequent use of churches for such events. Churches are considered to be in many ways apt places for holding a concert especially because of their size, acoustics, aesthetics and even practicality (e.g., as facilities for organ recitals).

  • Diocesan Commissions for Liturgy, Music, and Art: Knowing the Past to Prepare for the Future
    Diocesan Commissions for Liturgy, Music, and Art: Knowing the Past to Prepare for the Future by the Reverend Monsignor John J. M. Foster, J.C.D. Vicar General and Moderator of the Curia for the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA In the fifth chapter of Matthew’s Gospel, the evangelist tells us that, after seeing the crowds, Jesus went up the mountain. His disciples came to him, and he began teaching them (Mt 5:1–2). After the Beatitudes, Jesus presented the sayings on salt and light, which Daniel Harrington tells us, “serve to define the identity of those who follow Jesus faithfully.”1 You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house” (Mt 5:13–15, RNAB). As followers of the Lord Jesus who have been baptized into his passion, death, and resurrection, we are the salt of the earth and light of the world. To be salt and light, especially in today’s world, is a challenge for any Christian, but for us who have taken on diocesan and parochial responsibilities for promoting the liturgical life in our particular churches, Jesus’ teaching provides additional challenges. Given the seemingly endless number of liturgies to prepare, the constant barrage of phone calls and emails from the Christian faithful yearning to have their questions answered, and growing piles of articles and books to read to keep up-to-date on sacramental and liturgical issues, members of diocesan commissions for liturgy, music, and art and worship office staff members might understandably feel like salt that has lost its taste.

Effective September 14, 2007, Pope Benedict XVI loosened the restrictions on the use of the 1962 Missal, such that the special permission of the bishop is no longer required. This action was taken because, as universal shepherd, His Holiness has a heart for the unity of the Church, and sees the option of allowing a more generous use of the Mass of 1962 as a way to foster that unity and heal any breaches that may have occurred after Vatican II.

The extensive timelines have been broken into ten stages, drawing attention to a number of periods and reasons in the history of those eras for the unique experience of vernacular liturgy and the issues connected with it in the Western Catholic Church of our time. The role and function of International Committee of English in the Liturgy (ICEL) over its forty year existence still has a major impact on the way we worship in English. This article deals with the restructuring of ICEL which had been the centre of much controversy in recent years and now operates under different protocols.

  • Roman Catholic Liturgical Renewal Forty-Five Years After Sacrosanctum Concilium: an Assessment KEITH F
    Roman Catholic Liturgical Renewal Forty-Five Years after Sacrosanctum Concilium: An Assessment KEITH F. PECKLERS, S.J. Next December 4 will mark the forty-fifth anniversary of the promulgation of the Second Vatican Council’s Constitution on the Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilium, which the Council bishops approved with an astounding majority: 2,147 in favor and 4 opposed. The Constitution was solemnly approved by Pope Paul VI—the first decree to be promulgated by the Ecumenical Council. Vatican II was well aware of change in the world—probably more so than any of the twenty ecumenical councils that preceded it.1 It had emerged within the complex social context of the Cuban missile crisis, a rise in Communism, and military dictatorships in various corners of the globe. President John F. Kennedy had been assassinated only twelve days prior to the promulgation of Sacrosanctum Concilium.2 Despite those global crises, however, the Council generally viewed the world positively, and with a certain degree of optimism. The credibility of the Church’s message would necessarily depend on its capacity to reach far beyond the confines of the Catholic ghetto into the marketplace, into non-Christian and, indeed, non-religious spheres.3 It is important that the liturgical reforms be examined within such a framework. The extraordinary unanimity in the final vote on the Constitution on the Liturgy was the fruit of the fifty-year liturgical movement that had preceded the Council. The movement was successful because it did not grow in isolation but rather in tandem with church renewal promoted by the biblical, patristic, and ecumenical movements in that same historical period.

  • Sacrosanctum Concilium's Influence on an Eastern Catholic Worship
    Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies Vol. 57 (2016) Nos. 1–4, pp. 251–262 “Full, Conscious and Active Participation”: Sacrosanctum Concilium’s Influence on an Eastern Catholic Worship Aid Peter Galadza July 2013 saw the third printing of The Divine Liturgy: An Anthology for Worship.1 First issued in 2004, the predomi- nantly English-language “pew book” now has a combined print-run of almost 10,000 copies. This does not include the vast number of pirated photocopies of (sometimes large) sec- tions of the book, nor the digital pages (legally) displayed on several websites. The eve of the tenth anniversary of the Anthology’s first printing and the fiftieth anniversary of Sacrosanctum Conci- lium’s promulgation seems an appropriate time to reflect on a pivotal decree’s significant influence on this worship aid.2 Sooner or later, as editor-in-chief of the Anthology, I was bound to reflect in print on this influence, but I thank the orga- nizers of this Symposium for compelling me to do so now. 1 Peter Galadza, Joseph Roll, J. Michael Thompson, eds., The Divine Litur- gy: An Anthology for Worship (Ottawa: Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky Institute of Eastern Christian Studies, 2004). 2 An earlier version of this lecture was delivered in 2013 at the Catholic Uni- versity of America in Washington during a symposium, “Tradition and Prog- ress,” honoring the fiftieth anniversary of the promulgation of the Second Vatican Council’s Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Conci- lium.

  • Textbook of Gregorian Chant
    TEXT BOOK OF GREGORIAN CHANT ACCORDING TO THE SOLESMES METHOD BY Dom Gregory SUNOL, 0. S. B., Monk of Montserrat TRANSLATED FROM THE SIXTH FRENCH EDITION WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY G. M. DURNFORD OBLATE OF SOLESHES. SOCIETY OF ST JOHN EVANGELIST D£SCLEE & Co Printers to the Holy See and the Sacred Coogr. of Rites TOURNAI (Belgium) PREFACE. Few words are necessary to introduce the present work to English speaking students of plainsong. Such a handbook has long been needed and is sure of its welcome. Neither the well- known Stanbrook Grammar of Plainsong nor Madame Ward's valuable school courses cover so much ground as Dom Gregory Suflol in his Spanish " Metodo ". The book first appeared in 1905, prefaced by a commendatory letter from Dom Andre Mocquereau, the famous director of the Solesmes School. Its author has many years of teaching experience behind him, as well as sound theoret- ical knowledge of his subject. His work has proved its popu- larity and practical usefulness by going through a number of editions in the original Spanish, besides being translated into French and German. Indeed by compressing the Solesmes teach- ing within the narrow limits of a general text book Dom Sufiol has rendered good service to the Gregorian cause. Not everyone has access to the monumental publications of Solesmes, the Mono- graphies gregoriennes or the Paleographie Musicale> and countless students will be glad to find the subject matter of this latter Work, especially the important seventh volume on Gregorian Rhythm, here summed up and analysed, while the extensive quotations from Dom Mocquereau's Nombre Musical gregorien, with which the Spanish author has enriched his later editions, will make them desirous of seeing this fascinating synthesis of the whole subject brought out in English.

In the first place, I am exceptionally indebted to my beloved late parents, Op. Paul Kwasi Krah and Obp. Mary Adwoa Bour both of Atrensu in Techiman, Ghana. I am grateful to them for their tender parental care, basic Christian faith and financial support from my basic education to the end of my priestly formation and ordination in 1990. I cannot forget the love and care of all my brothers and sisters and my entire maternal family of Konimase and paternal family of Kyidom.
