We are committed: to our urban neighborhoods, to being the Cathedral of the Diocese, and to fellowship, formation, sacrament, and prayer. The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph Sirach 3:2-6, 12-14; Ps 128:1-2, 3, 4-5 Colossians 3:12-21; Luke 2:41-52 The Gospel reading on this Feast of the Holy Family gives us a glimpse into the childhood of Jesus with his Mother, Mary, and ThisAt The Cathedral Week his foster father, Joseph. This is a family like no other — consist- ing of the very Son of God, Mary, Queen of all Saints, and St. December 30, 2018 - January 6, 2019 Joseph, patron of the Universal Church. Yet as we see in today’s Scripture passage, they led a life typical of the families of their vvvvv day. They experienced many of the same joys and trials that all parents and children experience even today. And so we can look SUN HOLY FAMILY OF JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH to this Family for help in our own family lives and our relation- 30 ships with others. 6:00 pm (Sat) Mass for Frank Moran The Gospel passage, from Luke, starts by telling us something 8:00 am Mass for Patricia O’Donnell about Jesus’ parents: “Each year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem 10:30 am Mass for the Parishioners for the feast of the Passover, and when he was twelve years old, they went up according to festival custom.” In other words, this MON SEVENTH DAY WITHIN THE OCTAVE Family took their faith and its customs very seriously. The “Holy 31 OF THE NATIVITY OF THE LORD Couple” carefully observed the traditions and practice of their Saint Sylvester I, pope Jewish faith and brought up their Son to do the same. They worshiped as a family and with their faith community. And they 12:05 pm Mass for the Parishioners did so faithfully. 6:00 PM Vigil Mass for Mary, Mother of God We can take their example to heart by making Sunday Mass attendance a priority for our families, by making prayer with MON MARY, THE HOLY MOTHER OF GOD; our family a priority every day, by making sure that we regularly 1 THE OCTAVE DAY OF THE NATIVITY OF THE LORD celebrate the sacrament of reconciliation, and by observing in World Day of Prayer for Peace our family life the feasts and fasts appropriate to the liturgical calendar. When we, as families, prioritize our time with God and 9:00 am Mass for the Parishioners worship of Him we will be imitating the Holy Family. And when we are faced with the inevitable challenges that come WED Saints Basil the Great and Gregory Nazianzen, with family life, we will be far better equipped to handle them, 2 bishops and doctors of the Church just as the Holy Family did. We read just a few verses later in our 12:05 pm Mass for Rose Marie Alexander scripture passage, that Mary and Joseph faced every parents’ worst nightmare — they can’t find Jesus! What parent cannot relate to this awful moment or at least the fear of such a moment. Perhaps THU The Most Holy Name of Jesus a little child wanders off in the store and is physically missing as 3 12:05 pm Mass for Virginia Bucon young Jesus was.

  • My Life for the Pope
    Maybe you have never heard of Consalvi, but he was an important character: My Life for the Pope You students may find it difficult in your modern world to understand how a person could devote his whole life in the service of the Church and the Pope. Well, let me tell you my story and you’ll see at least how things used to be. My ancestors came from Pisa, of an ancient noble family, but my grandfather settled in the Papal States. There he met Ercole Consalvi (not me), who gave him a large fortune provided he changed his family name to Consalvi. My grandfather agreed (his name was Gregorio) and moved to Rome. I was born in Rome on June 8, 1757 and was destined for Church service as soon as I was born. After all, my family was influential and guaranteed me a swift rise. At age nine I began my education in Catholic colleges. My education lasted until 1783, and I studied rhetoric, theology, law, and philosophy. In 1783, I began a brilliant career in the service of Pope Pius VI, but then the French Revolution broke out. The French crossed into Italy and looked for a pretext to invade the Papal States. I was put at the head of a military commission to make certain that no disturbances would occur and no pretext would be given. On December 28, 1797, though, a French general was killed in Rome and in February a French army under General Berthier took over the city. The French removed Pius VI, Spencer Discala, PH.D.

  • Ercole Consalvi Ercole Consalvi Cardinal and Statesman, B
    Home > Catholic Encyclopedia > C > Ercole Consalvi Ercole Consalvi Cardinal and statesman, b. in Rome , 8 June, 1757; d. there, 24 January, 1824. Family His ancestors belonged to the noble family of the Brunacci in Pisa , one of whom settled in the town of Toscanella in the Papal States about the middle of the seventeenth century. The grandfather of the cardinal , Gregorio Brunacci , inherited from Ercole Consalvi of Rome a large fortune on condition of taking the name and arms of the Consalvi family . In this way Gregorio Brunacci became Marchese Gregorio Consalvi , with residence in Rome . Education (1766-1782) At the age of nine, Ercole Consalvi was placed in the college of the Scolopii or Brothers of the Pious Schools at Urbino , where he remained from 1766 to 1771. From 1771 to 1776 he was in the seminary of Frascati , where he finished his studies in rhetoric, philosophy and theology ; it was there also that he gained the powerful protection of the Cardinal , Duke of York, Bishop of Frascati . The years from 1776 to 1782 were devoted to the studies of jurisprudence and ecclesiastical history in the Academia Ecclesiastica of Rome , where he had among other professors the Jesuit scholar, Zaccaria . Service under Pius VI (1783-1799) He then entered on his public career. Named private chamberlain by Pius VI in April, 1783, in 1786 he was made Ponente del buon governo , i.e. member of a congregation charged with the direction of municipal affairs. Appointed in 1787 secretary of the congregation commissioned to administer the Ospizio of San Michele a Ripa, in 1790 he became Votante di Segnatura , or member of a high court of appeals, and in 1792 obtained the nomination of Uditore di Rota , or member of the high court of justice .

  • Protestant Competition Is Good for Saints Protestant Competition Is Good for Saints
    Protestant Competition is Good for Saints Protestant Competition is Good for Saints Robert J. Barro and Rachel M. McCleary Harvard University Saints are a major point of disagreement between the Roman Catholic Church and Protestant faiths. During the Protestant Reformation in the early 1500s, the Catholic doctrine of the intercessory power of saints was theologically denied by Martin Luther and John Calvin on the grounds of justification by faith alone in Jesus Christ.1 The Catholic Church’s position on saints, particularly as agents for souls in purgatory, created a “soul-prayer industry,” whereby indulgences funded a variety of religious activities and institutions. Notable here were chantry foundations, which provided an endowment for the purpose of employing priests to sing masses to benefit the souls of deceased persons.2 Protestantism, by contrast, rejected belief in purgatory and the mediating power of saints. One reason the Catholic Church maintained the cult of saints throughout the centuries is to energize the Catholic membership. The nomination of candidates for sainthood begins in a local context with a cult of worshippers. The variety and specialization of would-be saints are products of the local demand for veneration.3 This process allows changes in regional preferences to be reflected in the choices of individuals nominated for sainthood. 1Philip Melanchthon, a close friend of Martin Luther and a Professor of New Testament at Wittenberg University, drafted a common confession for the Lutheran Lords and Free Territories. Known as the Augsburg Confession, the document was presented to Emperor Charles V on June 25, 1530. Article 21 of the Augsburg Confession states: "Scripture does not teach us to invoke the Saints, or to ask for help from the Saints; for it puts before us Christ as the one mediator, propitiatory, high-priest and intercessor." 2The term “soul-prayer industry” comes from Diarmaid MacCulloch, The Reformation: A History (New York, Viking Press, 2003) p.

  • 021-San Marcello Al Corso
    (021/41) San Marcello al Corso San Marcello al Corso is a 16th century conventual and titular church on 4th century foundations in the rione Trevi. The dedication is to Pope St Marcellus. [1] History Legend claims that Pope St Marcellus (308-309) was sentenced by Emperor Maxentius to the duties of stable boy (catubulum) at the station of the Imperial mail on the Via Lata, where the Via del Corso now lies. He was freed by the people, and hidden in the house of the Roman lady Lucina. He was rearrested, and imprisoned in the stables. He died here in 309 and was buried in the cemetery of St. Priscilla. [1] The first historical mention of the existence in Rome of a church called "of Marcello" is found in the letter of December 29, 418, with which the Prefect of Rome Simmaco informed the emperor Honorius of the contemporary election, which took place the day before, of Pope Bonifacio I, in the church of Marcello, and of Eulalio (antipope), in the Lateran basilica. Later the church is often mentioned in historical sources as the Titulus Marcelli. [5] (021/41) The church was restored by Pope Adrian I (772-95). This structure lies below the present church, and has been excavated. In the 9th century the remains of St. Marcellus were brought from the cemetery of Priscilla and, interred beneath the high altar; the remains are still there today. [1] The history of San Marcello saw many lows. In 1354, the body of Cola di Rienzo was brought here three days after he had been killed in front of the steps leading to Santa Maria in Aracoeli, and hung up in the apse.

  • 34 CHAPTER II the FOUNDER the Mission Work of Bonanni While
    !34 CHAPTER II THE FOUNDER The mission work of Bonanni While Canon Del Bufalo was disposing himself under the counsel of Monsignor Albertini for the foundation of a new Institute, Fr. Gaetano Bonanni had already set things into motion in Rome by instituting certain pious works in the oratory of Santa Maria in Vincis, a service which the Servant of God greatly supported with Monsignor Santelli, Frs. Gaetano Bonanni and Gonnelli as well as other zealous priests who would gather together in that oratory and in Santa Galla. This latter place was also delivered into the special care of Monsignor Santelli’s administration and Fr. Gaetano Bonanni’s direction of the pious works. It was the latter who, eager to be giving missions, set this idea into motion and while the Servant of God was in exile, wrote to him about it to see whether he would be interested in the project and whether he would be willing to join with him. The Servant of God accepted it, since he had no other desire than that very goal and would be following the direction of his spiritual guide, Canon Albertini. He had received so much assurance of a future of even greater extension than just the work in Rome and elsewhere, that he replied with great exuberance as well as humility of heart. This offer coincided with the desires of his own heart, with divine providence which he deeply admired, and with the very things that he wished to share with the hearts of others who would be not only his helpers but even his teachers because of his youthfulness.
