    Archdiocesan News A PUBLICATION OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH OF CAPE TOWN • ISSUE NO 81 • JULY-SEPTEMBER 2016 • FREE OF CHARGE WORLD YOUTH DAY 2016 At the end of July an Archdiocesan contingent of seven young people (and Fr Charles) headed to Poland to be a part of World Youth Day 2016. They spent some days in Czestochowa Diocese in the small town of Radonsko, experiencing Polish hospitality and visiting the shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa. Then they headed off to Krakow for various activities and an encounter with millions of other pilgrims from all over the world, culminating in an all-night vigil and Mass with Pope Francis. 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.

    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?

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.

  • The Beginnings of St Joseph's Scholasticate
    Article The Beginnings of St Joseph’s Scholasticate Stuart C Bate OMI https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5614-7982 University of KwaZulu-Natal [email protected] Abstract In 2018, St Joseph’s Scholasticate celebrated 75 years since its foundation in 1943. It is a House of Formation for those who are preparing for permanent commitment to the Congregation of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI), as well as those who are preparing for ordination to the Catholic priesthood. St Joseph’s Scholasticate was founded in 1943 at Prestbury in Pietermaritzburg by the OMI Natal Province. This study examines how the Oblates of Mary Immaculate established a scholasticate in South Africa and how it developed during its first five years until 1947 while it was situated in Prestbury. It examines why a scholasticate is important in Oblate formation and examines the essential elements of initial Oblate formation in a scholasticate. It also studies the requirements to establish a house of formation in the OMI Congregation and addresses the characteristics of those who become formators of a scholasticate, as well as the criteria by which scholastics are assessed. Keywords: Catholic Church; priestly formation; indigenous clergy; religious life; Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI); St Joseph’s Scholasticate Introduction: Initial Formation for OMI Missionary Life Those young men who wish to join the Congregation of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI) have to go through a period of initial formation into Oblate missionary life. Initial formation is a process of socialisation into the community life of the congregation. The initiates have to apply to join the congregation and if accepted, they join an Oblate formation community as a member and live the lifestyle of the community following its programme under the direction of a superior.

  • THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY of AMERICA the Theological Justification for the Establishment of the Pontifical Commission for Justice
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Theological Justification for the Establishment of the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace ( Iustitia et pax) A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Sacred Theology © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Andrew Small Washington, D.C. 2010 The Theological Justification for the Establishment of the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace ( Iustitia et pax) Rev. Andrew Small, OMI, LL.M., S.T.D. Director: Rev. Brian V. Johnstone, C.SS.R., S.T.D. A central tenet of the aggiornamento undertaken by the Second Vatican Council was the Church’s role in and relationship to the modern world. Pope John XXIII’s call for a “pastoral” Council reached a new level of intensity in the Council’s debates on the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, Gaudium et spes . As if to acknowledge the inchoate nature of the Church’s new vision for its role in the world, the Pastoral Constitution mandated creation of a new organism of the universal Church that would extend reflection and action on the Church’s social engagement beyond the Council. This mandate, contained in article 90 of Gaudium et spes would become the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace. This dissertation examines the history and theological foundations of the process leading to this decision, focusing on the development of the theology of the Church’s relationship with the world during the Council itself and the immediate aftermath.

  • The Catholic Church and Apartheid, 1948
    THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND APARTHEID, 1948 - 1957 Garth Abraham Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History, University of Natal, Durban. December 1984 ii PREFACE • One of the most laudable justifications for writing a history of the Catholic Church was made by Lord Macauley, who, in his review of Leopold von Ranke's Political History of the Popes declared: There is not and never was on this earth, a work of human policy so well deserving of examination as the Roman Catholic Church... She saw the commencement of the governments and of all the ecclesiastical establishments that now exist in the world; and we feel no assurance that she is not destined to see the end of them all . She was great and respected before the Saxon had set foot on Britain, before the Frank had passed the Rhine, when Grecian eloquence still flourished in Antioch, when idols were still worshipped in the temple of Mecca. And she may still exist in undiminished vigour when some traveller from New Zealand shall, in ,t he midst of a vast solitude, take his stand on a br-oken arch of London Bridge to sketch the ruins of St Paul's. ( 1) While the early history of the Catholic Church in South Africa has been given a degree of 'well deserved... examination', the response of the Church to the apartheid legislation of the Nationalist government between 19LJa- 1957 is a period which has, thus far, received little attention from church historians. The only detailed study on an aspect of the period is David Bixby's B.A.

  • Joseph Cardijn and the Jocist Network at Vatican II by Stefan Robert Gigacz, LL.B., LL.M
    The Leaven in the Council: Joseph Cardijn and the Jocist Network at Vatican II By Stefan Robert Gigacz, LL.B., LL.M. (Legal Theory), DEA Canon Law. A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Divinity 2018 Abstract This thesis investigates the role and impact of Joseph Cardijn, founder of the Jeunesse Ouvrière Chrétienne (Young Christian Workers) movement, and the jocist network of bishops and periti at the Second Vatican Council. It adopts a longue durée approach, locating Cardijn within a tradition of Catholic social thought and action that developed in the wake of Europe’s nineteenth century industrial and democratic revolutions. It highlights the influence of the Lamennais School, and Marc Sangnier’s Sillon movement as sources for his work. Secondly, it traces the influence of Cardijn, his theology and methods over the half century prior to the Council, particularly the well-known see-judge-act method, which formed part of his “Three Truths” Christian dialectic. It also documents the emergence of a global network of JOC and/or Specialised Catholic Action chaplains experienced in these methods, many of whom would become key conciliar actors. Thirdly, it examines the role at Vatican II played by Cardijn, the jocist-formed bishops and periti, as well as several lay leaders from the movement, who became lay auditors. It particularly examines Cardijn’s role in the Preparatory Commission on Lay Apostolate and its successor the conciliar Lay Apostolate Commission in the drafting of the Decree on Lay Apostolate, Apostolicam Actuositatem, and the Doctrinal Constitution Lumen Gentium, as well as the impact of his book, Laïcs en premières lignes, published in English as Laymen into Action.
