  • Baylor Catholic Spring 2019
    St. Peter Catholic Student Center Baylor Catholic Spring 2019 Serving the Catholic Community at Baylor University, McLennan Community College, & Texas State Technical College SEEK 2019: An Arena of Grace Thousands of students. Arms raised, clapping. Some students calling out. Some in silence. At times everyone singing. It sounds like a Baylor sporting event, but this past January, 17 thousand young people gathered in Indianapolis, not to support their school’s sports teams, but to worship, to listen, to confess, and transform their lives by attending SEEK. SEEK is a biennial conference hosted by the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) in major cities across the United States. This year, 60 Baylor Catholic students joined thousands of other students, priests, consecrated persons, and speakers to learn what they truly yearn for: encountering Christ. A common thread in the talks was the speakers’ gratitude for and recognition of the sincere faith, witness, and commitment that flows from this Catholic community. During the five-day conference, our students attended talks by notable Catholic speakers like Sr. Mirian James (right), Leah Darrow, Jason Evert, and Sarah Swafford. Talks like these are the heart of all the FOCUS conferences and known for their inspiration, but also for having a strong call to action. “During Fr. Mike Schmitz’s talk on the last day, I heard how destructive indifference can be,” said Will Mullen (left), ‘20. “He talked about how if we truly believe in the Catholic faith then we are being selfish in not sharing its truth with those that we love. I needed this to give me the encouragement to share my faith more boldly with my friends.” Kate Ballantyne, ‘21, was particularly struck by a talk on prayer.

Mostrom All rights reserved 2018 iii ABSTRACT YVES CONGAR’S THEOLOGY OF LAITY AND MINISTRIES AND ITS THEOLOGICAL RECEPTION IN THE UNITED STATES Name: Mostrom, Alan D. University of Dayton Advisor: William L. Portier, Ph.D. Yves Congar’s theology of the laity and ministries is unified on the basis of his adaptation of Christ’s triplex munera to the laity and his specification of ministry as one aspect of the laity’s participation in Christ’s triplex munera. The seminal insight of Congar’s adaptation of the triplex munera is illumined by situating his work within his historical and ecclesiological context. The U.S. reception of Congar’s work on the laity and ministries, however, evinces that Congar’s principle insight has received a mixed reception by Catholic theologians in the United States due to their own historical context as well as their specific constructive theological concerns over the laity’s secularity, or the priority given to lay ministry over the notion of a laity.

  • Conférence « Franz Stock Et Les Voies Vers L'europe » Eglise Saint
    Conférence « Franz Stock et les voies vers l’Europe » Eglise Saint Maurice, Strasbourg mercredi 11 mai 2016 19 h Comment Franz Stock a-t-il ouvert les voies vers l’Europe ? A quel titre mérite-t-il la reconnaissance de l’Union Européenne d’aujourd’hui ? Comment son exemple peut-il aider à construire et à parfaire celle-ci ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles je voudrais essayer de répondre ici, ce soir, en l’Eglise Saint-Maurice de Strasbourg, qui abrite la première exposition sur Franz Stock ayant reçu le patronage du Parlement Européen. Franz Stock voit le jour à Neheim en Westphalie en 1904. Comment se présente l’Europe de 1904 ? Franz, ainé d’une famille de neuf enfants, est sujet de l’Empereur Guillaume II. Nicolas II est tsar autocrate de toutes les Russies ; François- Joseph règne sur l’empire austro-hongrois. La France a l’œil fixé sur la ligne bleue des Vosges. L’enfant qu’il est encore ne fait que le soupçonner, mais les nationalismes que Franz Stock, au milieu des décombres qu’ils avaient causés, qualifiera, en 1947, de « ridicules comme un vieux costume de zouave », sont à leur apogée. Franz Stock a dix ans lorsqu’éclate la première guerre mondiale, et quatorze lorsqu’elle se termine par la défaite de son pays. Il vit la guerre sans son père, qui est mobilisé mais qui en reviendra. Il a la chance d’habiter dans une partie de l’Allemagne ou les tendances revanchardes se manifesteront peu, et où se fait même jour un courant en faveur de la réconciliation avec la France.

  • Charity, Patience and Tenderness Are Very Beautiful Gifts. If You Have Them, You Want to Share Them with Others
    GIFT of TIME Charity, patience and tenderness are very beautiful gifts. If you have them, you want to share them with others. - Pope Francis ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT GIFT of TIME Caritas Australia The Catholic Agency for International Aid and Development Dorothy is a long-time supporter of Caritas Australia. Inspired by her faith and passion for social justice, Dorothy speaks about why she has decided to place Caritas in her Will. I first learned about Caritas when I was a child at school and vividly recall collecting coins for the Project Compassion Box. Giving to Caritas Australia has made me a much Photo: Sudan, Caritas Internationalis happier person. I feel empowered, knowing that we’re doing something for the most marginalised. The sense of concern that I sometimes feel thinking “Giving to Caritas about the poverty and suffering in the world today, has been taken away by knowing where my money is going Australia has made me a and that it’s going to a good cause. The last time I get to speak to people most important in much happier person” my life will be through my Will. I have great faith in Caritas Australia’s ability to end poverty and uphold people’s dignity. Caritas doesn’t tell its partners what to do but walks alongside them. There are so many charities out there, but I know that with Caritas, I’m giving in the right way, to a place that has good governance, a good development approach and spends minimally on administration. I can recommend Caritas wholeheartedly. 2 The Catholic Weekly GIFT of TIME 2020-2021 Leaving a Legacy of Love.

  • Die Geschichte Unserer Gemeine Sankt-Albertus-Magnus Paris (Kurzfassung)
    Die Geschichte unserer Gemeine Sankt-Albertus-Magnus Paris (Kurzfassung) 17. Jahrhundert Auf Bestreben der Herzogin von Brabant gewährte König Ludwig XIII bereits 1626 deutschen und flämischen Bürgern die Möglichkeit, in der Kirche Saint-Hippolyte im Faubourg Saint- Marceau, dem heutigen 13. Bezirk in Paris, Gottesdienste in ihrer Sprache abzuhalten. Im folgenden Jahr wurde dort die „Société Catholique des Nations Flamande et Allemande“ gegründet. Da sich diese Gemeinde damals weit außerhalb der Pariser Stadtgrenze befand, zog sie 1631 nach Saint-Germain-des-Prés, wo deutsche Gottesdienste bis 1718 nachweisbar sind. x18. Jahrhundert Im 18. Jahrhundert sind Messen mit deutschsprachigen Predigten in verschiedenen Pariser Kirchen nachweisbar, hauptsächlich jedoch bei den Kapuzinern in der Rue Saint-Honoré. x19. Jahrhundert Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts kamen durch massive Wanderbewegungen zahlreiche Handwerker und Arbeiter nach Paris, sodass man 1853 etwa 100.000 Menschen deutscher Sprache in Paris zählte! Da sie oft in sozial schlechten Situationen lebten, versuchte man eine eigene Seelsorge aufzubauen. 1825 begann der deutsche Priester Pater Bervenger in verschiedenen Pariser Kirchen zu wirken. Dies fand jedoch mit der Julirevolution 1830 bald wieder ein Ende. Am 12. November 1837 wurde Abbé Joseph Axinger Seelsorger der deutschsprachigen Katholiken in der Sankt-Bonifatius-Mission, die von Jesuiten nach seinem Tode weitergeführt wurde, bis 1848 der Jesuitenpater Joseph Chable die „Mission Catholique de Langue Allemande“ in der heutigen Rue Lhomond übernahm. Da die Not der deutschsprachigen Bevölkerung im damaligen Vorort La Villette noch größer war, beschloss er dorthin umzuziehen. Nach längerem Suchen erwarb er dort ein Grundstück, auf dem er eine Kirche mit Schule erbauen ließ: Saint-Joseph-des-Allemands.

  • PRESENTATION of the COMMUNIQUÉS of the GENERAL CHAPTER 1. from January
    [Translated from Original Spanish] Thy Kingdom Come! PRESENTATION OF THE COMMUNIQUÉS OF THE GENERAL CHAPTER 1. From January 8th through February 25th, 2014, the Extraordinary General Chapter of the Legion of Christ took place in Rome. His Eminence, Cardinal Velasio De Paolis, CS, and his two counselors, Fr. Gianfranco Ghirlanda, SJ, and Fr. Agostino Montan, CSI, presided. Sixty- one chapter fathers participated, 19 ex officio and 42 elected by the nine territories of the congregation and the centers of Rome. 2. This Extraordinary General Chapter marks the end of the journey of in-depth revision that the congregation has travelled since the apostolic visitation, which took place during 2009- 2010, and the naming of a Pontifical Delegate in the summer of 2010. Our principal tasks in the Chapter, as Pope Benedict XVI1 indicated and as Pope Francis confirmed2, were to revise the Constitutions and to elect a new central government for the congregation. 3. In the first days, in light of the reports that the Pontifical Delegate and the pro-General Director submitted, we focused on analyzing the life of the Congregation since the ordinary General Chapter that took place in 2005. One of the outcomes of the intense exchange of ideas that took place in those days was the communiqué that the Chapter approved on January 20th, 2014, about the journey of renewal of the Congregation. This same day, the elections of the new central government took place. Once the election had been confirmed and the Holy See made the two nominations that it had reserved to itself, the elections of Fr.
