  • Cleveland Chancellor Defends 'Nude' Statue of the Virgin Mary and Meditations with Potential Occult Links
    ================================================== CLEVELAND CHANCELLOR DEFENDS 'NUDE' STATUE OF THE VIRGIN MARY AND MEDITATIONS WITH POTENTIAL OCCULT LINKS The chancellor of a major American diocese has defended the use of both yoga and a form of esoteric therapy called "reiki" as ways of enhancing prayer and healing in a Catholic setting -- a view that many would find to be in contradiction of the Vatican. The chancellor, Father Ralph E. Wiatrowski, of Cleveland, says that the diocese does not officially propagate the practices but sees nothing wrong with elements of them. His views first came to light in a letter to a local woman who had complained about use of such practices at the Church of the Resurrection in Solon, Ohio. The church, which advertises yoga classes in the parish hall on Thursdays at 8:30 a.m. and 5:45 p.m., also has a highly controversial portrayal of the Blessed Mother. "As to the matter of yoga and reiki classes that are offered, please know that while these are not Christian in origin, there are principles involved that can be helpful in Christian meditation as well as techniques of relaxation as a preparation for prayer," wrote Father Wiatrowski on August 19. "While such things are not formally encouraged, it does not seem that there is anything present to warrant concern." Father Wiatrowski repeated those views in an interview with Spirit Daily. Those who oppose such practices note the link to what they see as Eastern occultism, most memorably represented by figures such as Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Yoga is from the Sankrit word Yug, meaning "union" (with the Divine, your higher "self").

  • SAINT MARY SEMINARY and GRADUATE SCHOOL of THEOLOGY at the Center for Pastoral Leadership
    SAINT MARY SEMINARY AND GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY At The Center for Pastoral Leadership Roman Catholic Diocese of Cleveland 2020-2023 Catalog I like comparing the vocation to the ordained ministry to the “treasure hidden in a field” (13:44). It is truly a treasure that God places from the beginning in the hearts of some men; those whom He has chosen and called to follow him in this special state of life. This treasure, which needs to be discovered and brought to light, is not meant to “enrich” just someone. The one called to the ministry is not the “master” of his vocation, but the administrator of a gift that God has entrusted to him for the good of all people, rather, of all men and women, including those who have distanced themselves from religious practice or do not profess faith in Christ. At the same time, the whole of the Christian community is the guardian of the treasure of these vocations, destined for His service, and it must be ever more conscious of the duty to promote them, welcome them and accompany them with affection. God never ceases to call some to follow and serve Him in the ordained ministry. We too, however, must do our part, through formation, which is the response of man, of the Church to God’s gift, that gift that God gives through vocations. It means guarding and fostering vocations, that they may bear ripe fruit. They are “diamonds in the rough” ready to be carefully polished with respect for the conscience of the candidates and with patience, so that they may shine among the People of God.

  • TEN Frequently ASKED Questions About the Reservation of Priestly Ordination to MEN
    TEN FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE RESERVATION OF PRIESTLY ORDINATION TO MEN A Pastoral Response by the Committee on Doctrine of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops 1998 Introduction Once, when Christ looked over the crowd following him and noted the abundance of the harvest but the small number of laborers, he instructed his disciples to pray to God to send workers into the harvest (Matt. 9:37-38; Luke 10:2). In this way, he showed us that, despite the great and immediate need, no one could take up the task of being a laborer in the harvest without being sent by the Lord of the harvest to do so. The twelve apostles were chosen by a free decision of Jesus himself following upon his own prayer (Mk 3:13; Lk 6:12-13; cf. Jn 15:16). The Church has always understood that the prayer for workers has in part been answered in Christ's sending of the Apostles and their successors as laborers to continue his work in the harvest of salvation. In the sacrament of Holy Orders, by which bishops and priests are ordained for service in the Church, we see an essential part of God's splendid answer to our prayers for workers in this harvest. Giving praise and thanks to God, the Church confesses that the ministerial priesthood is nothing less than Christ's gift to us, his priestly people. This faith provides the context for understanding and accepting the teaching that the Church has no authority to ordain women to the ministerial priesthood and why this teaching does not deny the equality or God-given rights of human persons.
