In every sphere of school life, the rapid turn-over of staff, and their frequent disappearance overseas, is detrimental to healthy growth. Thus, this Impala, which should have been published a year ago, has passed through several Editors, which held up the primary collation; has survived the Printing Press changing hands, and the consequent loss of the lino-typist; and despite our present frinter being unable to get a work-permit for a dif•erent lino-typisf, and having to rely on a part- time typist, Impala has appeared, albeit almost a twelvemonth in arrears. We have decided that in future a smaller Impala will appear twice a year, with a greater emphasis on being a creative magazine, rather than purely a school record. We hope that the first edition of the year will carry the summarised record of the previous year, while t h e second edition will cover events with more topical -relevance than the present edition does.

  • Marren Akoth AWITI, IBVM Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Canon
    FORMATION OF WOMEN RELIGIOUS DURING THE PERIOD OF TEMPORARY VOWS WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO THE RELIGIOUS INSTITUTE OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY (LORETO SISTERS) Marren Akoth AWITI, IBVM Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Canon Law, Saint Paul University, Ottawa, Canada, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Canon Law Faculty of Canon Law Saint Paul University ©Marren Akoth AWITI, Ottawa, Canada, 2017 ii ABSTRACT The Church instructs that the formation of religious after first profession, already begun in the novitiate, is to be perfected so that they may acquire the necessary maturity to lead the life of the institute more fully and to carry out its mission more effectively, mindful of the needs of the Church, mission of the institute and condition of people and times (c. 659 § 1). Formation after first profession for non-clerical religious is an innovation of Vatican II. The document Renovationis causam recognizes the necessity and significance of post-novitiate formation in helping the temporarily professed religious attain the required growth towards maturity necessary for permanent commitment. With the promulgation of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, post-novitiate formation is accorded formal legislation and recognized as an intrinsic aspect of religious life. The Code specifies its aims, dimensions and pedagogy, leaving its structure and duration to be designed by individual institutes. The Church requires that each institute draw up a ratio which is structured according to the provisions of universal norms at the same time allowing some latitude for necessary adaptations of aspects which may require revision. Despite the provisions specified in the universal law, together with further directives given in subsequent Holy See documents, formation of religious continues to be a constant challenge to the Church as well as religious institutes.

  • The Victorian Naturalist
    J The Victorian Naturalist Volume 113(1) 199 February Club of Victoria Published by The Field Naturalists since 1884 MUSEUM OF VICTOR A 34598 From the Editors Members Observations As an introduction to his naturalist note on page 29, George Crichton had written: 'Dear Editors late years the Journal has become I Was not sure if it was of any relevance, as of ' very scientific, and ordinary nature reports or gossip of little importance We would be very sorry if members felt they could not contribute to The Victorian Naturalist, and we assure all our readers that the editors would be more than pleased to publish their nature reports or notes. We can, however, only print material that we actually receive and you are encouraged to send in your observations and notes or suggestions for topics you would like to see published. These articles would be termed Naturalist Notes - see in our editorial policy below. Editorial Policy Scope The Victorian Naturalist publishes articles on all facets of natural history. Its primary aims are to stimulate interest in natural history and to encourage the publication of arti- cles in both formal and informal styles on a wide range of natural history topics. Authors may submit the material in the following forms: Research Reports - succinct and original scientific communications. Contributions - may consist of reports, comments, observations, survey results, bib- liographies or other material relating to natural history. The scope is broad and little defined to encourage material on a wide range of topics and in a range of styles. This allows inclusion of material that makes a contribution to our knowledge of natural his- tory but for which the traditional format of scientific papers is not appropriate.
