The Norbertines took over the Our Lady of Guadalupe Shrine, what can you tell me about them? Are sins against the environment actually sins and are they important? Could the Angel of the Lord be Christ pre-incarnate? Can a demon pretend to be a loved one in purgatory? Could you recommend any books on Elijah? What does the "designated godparent" mean in regard to baptism? If a Protestant ask for you to hear their confession, what would you do?

His founding of the Order was a monumental tasks: combating rampant heresies—particularly regarding the Blessed Sacrament, revitalizing many of the faithful who had grown indifferent and dissolute, plus effecting peace and reconciliation among enemies. Norbert entertained no pretensions about his own ability to accomplish this multiple task. Even with the aid of a goodly number of men who joined his Order, he realized that nothing could be effectively done without God's power. Finding this help especially in devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, he and his Norbertines praised God for success in converting heretics, reconciling numerous enemies, and rebuilding faith in indifferent believers. Many of them lived in central houses during the week and served in parishes on weekends. Reluctantly, Norbert became archbishop of Magdeburg in central Germany, a territory half pagan and half Christian. In this position he zealously and courageously continued his work for the Church until his death on June 6, 1134. Reflection A different world cannot be built by indifferent people. The same is true in regard to the Church. The indifference of vast numbers of nominal faithful to ecclesiastical authority and essential doctrines of the faith weakens the Church's witness. Unswerving loyalty to the Church and fervent devotion to the Eucharist, as practiced by Norbert, will continue immeasurably toward maintaining the people of God in accord with the heart of Christ.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - The devastating Maui fires appear to have spared Maria Lanakila Catholic Church in Lahaina, providing a symbol of hope amid catastrophic destruction. At least 93 deaths had been reported as of Sunday, August 13, making the disaster the deadliest wildfire event in the US since 1918. Authorities expect the death toll to rise. Multiple fast-moving fires, fanned by strong winds and fueled by dry vegetation, swept across the Hawaiian island. The western town of Lahaina, with fewer than 13,000 residents, was particularly devastated. Maria Lanakila Catholic Church, named for Our Lady of Victory, appears to have escaped destruction. Maria Lanakila Catholic Church serves 700 to 800 families and celebrates six Sunday Masses every weekend. It hosts many weddings from visitors from around the world. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/255084/for-us-it-s-like-a-miracle-catholic-church-appears-to-survive-devastating-maui-fire After Ecuadorian presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio was gunned down at a campaign rally this week, Pope Francis appealed for a unified effort for peace in the country plagued by drug-related violence. The pope sent a condolence telegram to Archbishop Alfredo Espinoza Mateus of Quito on August 12 in which he condemned the assassination “with all his strength” and expressed his deepest sympathy to the family of the deceased and “all of the beloved Ecuadorian people.” Villavicencio, 59, was assassinated on Wednesday night at a campaign event only ten days before the first round of voting in Ecuador's presidential election. The politician had been an outspoken critic of the violence caused by drug trafficking. Immediately following the assassination, the Ecuadorian bishops' conference condemned the act of violence, while pledging to support initiatives to restore public safety and to “pray and work for peace based on freedom, justice, and truth.” https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/255081/pope-francis-condemns-assassination-of-ecuadorian-presidential-candidate A community of Norbertine priests from California is putting down roots in the Midwest by opening a new priory and educational institute in Springfield, Illinois, this summer. The Norbertine, or Premonstratensian, order was founded in 1121 in France by Saint Norbert. The new priory had its official opening July 1. The Norbertines plan to offer daily Mass and thrice-weekly confessions in the new space, located at 4867 Laverna Road, as well as host diocesan events and retreats for groups and individuals. The buildings and grounds of Corpus Christi Priory are the former site of the Chiara Center, operated by the Hospital Sisters of St. Francis, who will continue to live in a convent on the property. The Norbertine fathers will serve as chaplains for the sisters. Visitors are welcome at the new priory. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/255079/california-community-of-norbertine-priests-establish-new-priory-educational-institute-in-illinois Today, the Church celebrates Saint Maximilian Kolbe, the Polish Franciscan priest, missionary and martyr. The saint died in the concentration camp at Auschwitz, during World War II, and is remembered as a “martyr of charity” for dying in place of another prisoner who had a wife and children. Saint Maximilian is also celebrated for his missionary work, his evangelistic use of modern means of communication, and for his lifelong devotion to the Virgin Mary under her title of the Immaculate Conception. He was canonized by Pope John Paul II on October 10, 1982. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/st-maximillian-kolbe-560

ST. NORBERT l PATRON OF THE KINGDOM OF BOHEMIA Feast Day: JUNE 6 Today, we shall introduce to you a religious order in the Church not working in the Philippines, but is active in 23 countries around the world. This order of canons regularis called Premostratensian or Norbertines, after their founder, St. Norbert of Xanten. They are involved in education, university chaplaincy, and work for the youth. St. Norbert was born in Xanten, Germany. He studied and accepted the ordination to the subdeaconate. As a subdeacon, his work was to sing the Divine Office at the church, but he paid someone a small fee to do this job for him since he was appointed a religious counselor to Emperor Henry V in Cologne. With his high salary, he followed an undisciplined life. He avoided being ordained to the priesthood and declined an appointment of higher office from the Church. But the Lord had some special designs for him. One day in the spring of 1115 as he rode his horse, a thunderbolt from a sudden storm struck his horse's feet. He was thrown down from the animal and was unconscious for nearly an hour. From this accident, his faith deepened and he renounced his appointment from Emperor Henry and returned to Xanten. There he started a life of prayer and penance, became very devoted to the Holy Eucharist and to Our Lady. He also placed himself under the direction of an abbot in Cologne. He founded the Abbey of Furstenberg, donated part of his personal property, and placed the Abbey under the direction of the Abbot. He was 35 years old then and asked to be ordained to the priesthood. He adopted a very strict discipline that it became destructive to his first three disciples. He then sold all his property, and gave them to the poor. He visited Pope Gelasius II who gave him the permission to become an itinerant preacher. Norbert preached throughout western Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and northern France. He was already credited with a number of miracles as he helped some needy clergy, particularly demoralized and lonely priests, and those not following strictly the vow of celibacy. At the Council of Reims, in October 1119, Pope Calixtus II requested Norbert to establish a Norbertine group in the Diocese of Laon, France. It was December 25 1120, when Norbert established the Canons Regular of Premontre. For a Rule, he chose the Rule of St. Augustine and added some Cistercian practices, with the idea of a monastic ministry. Norbert chose a valley named Premontre as their monastery, that is why they are called Premostratensian. He started with 13 disciples and the following year they were already 40 in number. Their Constitution was approved in 1225 by Pope Honorius II. He also established the Third Order of St. Norbert. He was successful in combatting a Eucharistic heresy in Antwerp thus he was proclaimed “Apostle of Antwerp.” In 1126, Pope Honorius II made him archbishop of Magdeburg. As he tried to reform the lax discipline in his diocese, many assassination attempts were made against him. When Norbert died in Magdeburg on June 6, 1134, the canons of the cathedral and of St. Mary's Abbey both claimed his body, but it was buried in the Norbertine Abbey. On May 2, 1627, the body was finally brought to Prague where it remains today, kept in a glass-fronted tomb. Norbert was canonized by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582. His statue appears, among the 140 statues of saints and martyrs, above the Piazza colonnade of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. He is depicted holding a ciborium due to his love for the Eucharist. “St. Norbert, you changed from being worldly to being a holy man, help us overcome our worldly inclinations and imitate your holy life.” Am I aware of my inclinations and habits that are not pleasing to God?

And Rob at that point, that was his regular Sunday parish. And we began a friendship that has been just very, very fruitful and very special in many ways. So that's sort o

Full Text of ReadingsThe Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ Lectionary: 168All podcast readings are produced by the USCCB and are from the Catholic Lectionary, based on the New American Bible and approved for use in the United States _______________________________________The Saint of the day is Saint NorbertIn the 12th century in the French region of Premontre, Saint Norbert founded a religious Order known as the Praemonstratensians or the Norbertines. His founding of the Order was a monumental tasks: combating rampant heresies—particularly regarding the Blessed Sacrament, revitalizing many of the faithful who had grown indifferent and dissolute, plus effecting peace and reconciliation among enemies. Norbert entertained no pretensions about his own ability to accomplish this multiple task. Even with the aid of a goodly number of men who joined his Order, he realized that nothing could be effectively done without God's power. Finding this help especially in devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, he and his Norbertines praised God for success in converting heretics, reconciling numerous enemies, and rebuilding faith in indifferent believers. Many of them lived in central houses during the week and served in parishes on weekends. Reluctantly, Norbert became archbishop of Magdeburg in central Germany, a territory half pagan and half Christian. In this position he zealously and courageously continued his work for the Church until his death on June 6, 1134. Reflection A different world cannot be built by indifferent people. The same is true in regard to the Church. The indifference of vast numbers of nominal faithful to ecclesiastical authority and essential doctrines of the faith weakens the Church's witness. Unswerving loyalty to the Church and fervent devotion to the Eucharist, as practiced by Norbert, will continue immeasurably toward maintaining the people of God in accord with the heart of Christ.
