Book excerpt: With the 2019 promulgation of the apostolic letter motu proprio Vos estis lux mundi, Pope Francis has taken steps to fill a lacuna in the law regarding the protection of minors from sexual abuse by clergy in the Catholic Church. The Holy See called attention to this lacuna when it published "guidelines" consisting of suggestions from "various Commissions and Episcopal Conferences" for the February 2019 meeting of the Pontifical Commission for The Protection of Minors in the Church, which preceded the promulgation of Vos estis. The guidelines, or "aid to reflection," noted the need to "establish specific protocols for handling accusations against Bishops." Vos estis accomplishes this goal by providing a procedure for investigating bishops accused of such sinful, criminal actions or of negligence in the investigation and prosecution of sexual abuse by other clerics. This thesis provides a brief historical background of the penal investigation of bishops, a summary of Vos estis, and a presentation of the enhanced roles of the metropolitan archbishop and lay experts in such situations.

Book excerpt: In 2016, Come Una Madre Amorevole introduced 'vulnerable adults' to ecclesiastical legislation for the first time, though without any definition. That lack was remedied in 2019 by Vos Estis Lux Mundi which included the term "vulnerable person" and proceeded to offer a somewhat broad definition to this already ambiguous term. This thesis will seek to clarify what is meant by vulnerable person in Art. 1 §2b of VELM by use of the interpretive tools provided in canon 17 of the Code of Canon Law.
Download or read book You Are the Light of the World written by Francis and published by . This book was released on 2019-07 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A motu proprio is a papal document, written as a personal response from the Holy Father to questions or petitions from individuals or groups. It is meant to be written in the Pope's own hand (motu proprio literally translates to "in his own hand"), and in this way it differs from other more official papal documents, such as an apostolic constitution or a papal bull. Vos Estis Lux Mundi, or You Are The Light Of The World, is the third motu proprio of Pope Francis' pontificate. It outlines rules established by the Church to fight sexual abuse and encourage accountability and transparency. In a statement, Cardinal Archbishop Sean O'Malley of Boston explained the importance of this document: "During the past year it has become far more clear that the people of the Church and our wider society rightfully demand substantive action for disclosure, transparency, and accountability... and that all Church personnel, regardless of office, be subject to the same policies, procedures, and sanctions. Vos Estis Lux Mundi is an important and substantive response to that demand. I am grateful to the Holy Father for his recognition of the critical need for these new policies and procedures and his actions to as best possible assure the protection of all the people we serve throughout the world."

Download or read book Catena Aurea written by Thomas Aquinas and published by . This book was released on 1876 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is volume two of a five volume effort, by one of History’s greatest commentator's on the Gospels. This work is written for one who does have a fluid knowledge of philosophy, not alone Thomas Aquinas. What this accomplishes is to provide a modern version of the Catena Aurea in today's verbiage and related issues, while in keeping with the flow and content of the original. It is not hard to admire St. Thomas Aquinas immovably caught in the splendor of a stained-glass window; it is easy to pay tribute to his Summa Theologica as long as it remains high on a bookshelf giving character to a library. Under these circumstances, we of the twenty first century can read about them both, talk about them enthusiastically, but pretty much leave them both alone. Aquinas is one who regardless of your placement on your spiritual journey. Aquinas is the basis for so much of what we have come to regard as dogma. This work is essential to not only understanding Aquinas’s other works, but also our own journey.

Download or read book Traces of Tollius written by Simon Groot and published by Uitgeverij Verloren. This book was released on 2022-05-05 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joannes Tollius (c. 1550-c. 1620) was born in Amersfoort and began his career as music director of the Amersfoort Chapel of Our Lady. He flourished in Italy as maestro di capella of the cathedrals of Rieti (1583-84) and Assisi (1584-86), and as cantor tenorista in Rome (1586-88) and Padua (1588-1601). He ended his career as an exceptionally well-paid singer in the court chapel of Christian IV in Copenhagen (1601-03). In 1590, a collection of three-part motets appeared under the surprising title Motecta de dignitate et moribus sacerdotum (motets about the dignity and morals of priests), presumably intended as a denunciation of the priests who had had him imprisoned in Assisi on charge of heresy, a charge of which Tollius was later acquitted. In 1591, two collections of five-part motets appeared in quick succession. In these motets, Tollius uses techniques of word painting that go significantly further than those used by his contemporaries in sacred music. In 1597, an extended and revised reprint appeared of the a collection of six-part madrigals. In his madrigals, Tollius shows himself to be a skilled composer who is in keeping with the madrigal output of his Italian contemporaries. In 1598, two new madrigals by Tollius appeared in collections of works by Paduan masters, including such great names as Lodovico Viadana and Costanzo Porta. Tollius is unconventional in his compositions. He combines works with an archaic character, with works that fit in prevailing compositional trends, but he also experiments with means that go far beyond what his contemporaries allowed themselves. His oeuvre may be small, but its diversity and quality makes it notable. During his life, Tollius regularly came into conflict with his employers. He was often fined and sometimes even imprisoned. Contemporary accounts of Tollius are contradictory when it comes to his personality, but they are unanimous in recognising that he was a skilled musician.

Download or read book Abuse in the Latin American Church written by Véronique Lecaros and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the crisis of sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church in Latin America, the region of the world with the highest percentage of Catholics. Bringing together research from across the continent, it demonstrates that abuse within the Church is indeed a global phenomenon, though abuses have taken different forms according to varying sociocultural contexts. With attention to abuses committed against children, women and vulnerable adults – by both men and women – within the settings of parishes, new religious movements and international religious organizations, it also raises questions of justice, asking how to assess the suffering of victims, how to deal with abusers and how to prevent abuses. It will therefore be of interest to scholars of religious studies, sociology, Latin American studies, criminology, theology, and religious leaders with interests in the abuses and scandals that have been revealed in the worldwide Church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lumen gentium, the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church of the Second Vatican Council, uses various images to speak about the Church. This study is about the Church as the Bride of Christ. Unlike the great images of the Church as the People of God and the Body of Christ, the image of the Church as the Bride of Christ has never been extensively examined since the Second Vatican Council. The current research is a biblical and systematic-theological study of this image. Its main question is what this metaphor can tell us about the essence of the Church, and what its consequences are for the life of the Church today.
