Claremont Mosque condemns killing of Catholic Priest PRESS STATEMENT – 26 JULY 2016 CMRM Condemns Inhumane Killing of Catholic Priest The Claremont Main Road Mosque (CMRM) congregation strongly con- demns the brutal killing of an 85 year-old Catholic priest by two ISIS/Da`ish supporters during a Mass at a Church in Normandy, France. The inhumane and gruesome killing of the elderly Father Jacques Hamel and the sacrili- geous violation of a sacred prayer space bears testimony to the merciless ideology of Da`ish. It is apparent that Da`ish is hell-bent on fuelling a reli- gious war between Muslims and Christians. However, their war is a war on humanity and our response should reflect a deep respect for the sanctity of all human life. This tragic incident should spur us to redouble our efforts at reaching out to each other across religious divides. Our thoughts and prayers are with the congregation of the Church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray and the Catholic Church at large.

  • How the Catholic Church Sexual Abuse Crisis Changed Private Law
    CARDINAL SINS: HOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SEXUAL ABUSE CRISIS CHANGED PRIVATE LAW MAYO MORAN* ABSTRACT For several decades now, the unfolding of the Catholic Church sexual abuse crisis has been front-page news. It has wreaked havoc on hundreds of thousands of lives, cost the Church billions of dollars, and done irreparable harm to a once-revered institution. Along the way, it has also helped to transform the all- important private law of responsibility. When the crisis began to break in the early 1980s, the few survivors who sought legal redress faced a daunting array of obstacles. Limitations periods alone had the effect of barring almost all child sexual abuse claims. Immunities also helped to shield the Church. Private law itself was generally hostile to institutional liability, particularly where the harm resulted from the criminal act of an individual. All of that has changed. Among the catalysts for change within private law, the Catholic Church sex abuse crisis looms large. The scale of the crisis and the universal nature of the Church were certainly both important factors, but so too was the Church's response. From the initial impulse to cover up instances of abuse to choices made in the legal and political arenas, it appeared willing to do almost anything to protect itself. Yet the Church had traditionally bene®ted from special treatment precisely on the ground that it was not an ordinary, self-interested legal actor. The tension between the Church's mission and its approach to covering up abuse began to attract notice. Courts and legislators were prompted to act.

    Archdiocesan News A PUBLICATION OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH OF CAPE TOWN • ISSUE NO 67 • OCTOBER-DECEMBER 2012 • FREE OF CHARGE Archbishop's Stewardship Challenge Making stewardship a way of life in the Year of Faith A Christian Steward is a Christ follower who: • Receives God’s gifts gratefully • Cherishes and tends them in a responsible way • Shares them in justice and love for all • Returns them with interest to the Lord (USCCB Stewardship: A Disciple’s Response) This means that we acknowledge that all we have has been given to us as a gift from God and we are grateful for all our gifts, our posses- sions, our health, our children, etc. We cherish these gifts and realise that we are accountable for all that we have been given, and we prom- ise to take care of them in a responsible way. For the benefit of others, God has given us all these gifts that we might be generous and give back a portion for the common good and in recognition of the bless- ings received from God (Malachi 3:10). We are also to use the gifts we have been given, and not to ‘bury’ them. Remember the Parable of the Talents. (Matthew 25:13-30) In a very practical way we are asked to give back to God from all Archbishop Brislin leads the way in the stewardship challenge, taking time out of his busy schedule to serve the poor that He has given to us in three ways: Time Talents Treasure THE STEWARDSHIP CHALLENGE TIME: spend one extra hour in prayer each week, go to an extra How do we do this?

Rome 2013 Stampa Istituto Salesiano Pio XI - Via Umbertide, 11 - 00181 Roma Tel. : 06.78.27.819 - Fax : 06.78.48.333 - E-Mail [email protected] Finito di stampare : aprile 2013 Foreword The meeting of the History Research team held in Rome from 5th to 7th May 2011 suggested that I should prepare material for the study and teaching of the period 1947-1967. This was a period in which Africa and our Society experienced some of the most sweeping changes in our history. Reading and research for this period was carried out in London in 2011 and in Rome in February 2012. A dossier of background and working papers, amounting to some 40,000 words, was prepared. In addition, material was included about Missionaries of Africa who served as military chaplains, and who were demobilized between 1945 and 1954. In 1957 the Society included up to 600 former soldiers, of whom one in ten had served as officially designated military chaplains. This fact had much to do with the Society's preparedness for, and expectation of, change. In November 2012 François Richard and Jean-Claude Ceillier proposed that the dossier should form the basis of a volume in the History Series, focussing on the contribution of Léo Volker, superior general from 1957 to 1967.I am grateful to Jean-Claude Ceillier and the History Research team, and to François Richard, Juan-José Oses and Fritz Stenger in the General Archives, Library and Photo Collection at Via Aurélia, for ail their help.

  • Papal Transitions
    Backgrounder Papal Transition 2013 prepared by Office of Media Relations United States Conference of Catholic Bishops 3211 Fourth Street NE ∙ Washington, DC 20017 202-541-3200 ∙ 202-541-3173 fax ∙ www.usccb.org/comm Papal Transitions Does the Church have a formal name for the transition period from one pope to another? Yes, in fact, this period is referred to by two names. Sede vacante, in the Church’s official Latin, is translated "vacant see," meaning that the see (or diocese) of Rome is without a bishop. In the 20th century this transition averaged just 17 days. It is also referred to as the Interregnum, a reference to the days when popes were also temporal monarchs who reigned over vast territories. This situation has almost always been created by the death of a pope, but it may also be created by resignation. When were the most recent papal transitions? On April 2, 2005, Pope John Paul II died at the age of 84 after 26 years as pope. On April 19, 2005, German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, formerly prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, was elected to succeed John Paul II. He took the name Pope Benedict XVI. There were two in 1978. On August 6, 1978, Pope Paul VI died at the age of 80 after 15 years as pope. His successor, Pope John Paul I, was elected 20 days later to serve only 34 days. He died very unexpectedly on September 28, 1978, shocking the world and calling the cardinals back to Rome for the second time in as many months.

Although the 84-year-old pope had a microphone on March 27 and mouthed the words of the blessing, the only sound heard was his deep, rasping breathing. Holy Week and Easter 2005 marked the first time since his 1978 election that Pope John Paul did not personally preside over the liturgies commemorating Jesus’ last sup- per with his disciples, his suffering, death and resurrection. In his annual Easter message, read by the Vatican secretary of state, Pope John Paul focused on how the risen Lord has remained among his disciples in the Eucharist and in the Scriptures. The disciples on the road to Emmaus said to Jesus, “Stay with us, Lord,” a request renewed each day by Christians around the world, the pope wrote. Sitting in the window of his apartment overlooking St. Peter’s Square, Pope John Paul turned the pages of his text as it was read by Cardinal Angelo Sodano. The pope underwent a tracheotomy on Feb. 24 to ease breathing difficulties. The Benedictine Father Carl Deitchman, pastor of St. Paul Parish in Tell City, baptizes Rebecca Daum during the Easter Vigil celebrated on March 26 at last time he spoke in public was March 13, St.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See AUDIENCE WITH THE COLLEGE OF CARDINALS ADDRESS OF THE HOLY FATHER POPE FRANCIS Clementine Hall Friday, 15 March 2013 Video Dear Brother Cardinals, The period of the conclave has been a momentous time not only for the College of Cardinals, but also for all the faithful. In these days we have felt almost tangibly the affection and the solidarity of the universal Church, as well as the concern of so many people who, even if they do not share our faith, look to the Church and the Holy See with respect and admiration. From every corner of the earth fervent prayers have been offered up by the Christian people for the new Pope, and my first encounter with the thronging crowd in Saint Peter’s Square was deeply moving. With that evocative image of the people gathered in joyful prayer still impressed on my memory, I want to express my sincere thanks to the bishops, priests, consecrated persons, young people, families, and the elderly for their spiritual closeness, so touching and so deeply felt. I want to express my sincere and profound gratitude to all of you, my dear venerable brother Cardinals, for your ready cooperation in the task of leading the Church during the period of the Sede Vacante. I greet each one of you warmly, beginning with the Dean of the College of Cardinals, Cardinal Angelo Sodano, whom I thank for his devoted words and his fervent good wishes addressed to me on behalf of all of you. I also thank Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, Camerlengo of Holy Roman Church, for his attentive service during this transitional period, as well as our dear friend Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, who led us during the conclave: thank you very much! My thoughts turn with particular affection to the Cardinals who, on account of age or ill health, made their contribution and expressed their love for the Church by offering up their 2 sufferings and their prayers.
