Pope establishes Feast of Our Lady of Loreto

Last updated on: December 10, 2019 at 8:33 pm By Father Pablo Migone

Earlier this year Pope Francis established a new feast on December 10th in the Church’s liturgical calendar: the Feast of Our Lady of Loreto. The decree which established the feast day states, “this celebration will help all people, especially families, youth and religious to imitate the virtues of that perfect disciple of the Gospel, the Virgin Mother, who, in conceiving the Head of the Church also accepted us as her own.” Loreto is a small town on the Adriatic coast...

Sitting at a Buddhist Shrine

Last updated on: December 6, 2019 at 12:54 pm By Father Pablo Migone

I sat alone on a brown wooden bench at the open air Erawan Shrine in downtown Bangkok during the evening rush hour. The wheels of commuter trains above me screeched as the trains made a sharp turn on two elevated concrete railways. Thousands of men and women participating in the “Occupy Bangkok” protest blocked the adjacent roads. One of the protestors had checked my bag as I crossed the crowded protest line to reach the shrine from my nearby hotel. ... Read more

Fulton Sheen Beatification Postponed

Last updated on: December 4, 2019 at 9:43 pm By Father Pablo Migone

What a shock. One December 3rd, Bishop Daniel Jenky of Peoria announced that Rome has postponed the beatification of Fulton Sheen which was scheduled for December 21st of this year at the cathedral of Peoria. The delay is attributed to a request from some U.S. bishops who have asked for further consideration of this formal act by the Church which would move Archbishop Sheen one step closer to sainthood. This should have never happened. It is a tragedy. Whatever the... Read more

A journey of trust

Last updated on: November 20, 2019 at 11:09 am By Father Pablo Migone

A few years ago I met a young novice preparing to be a Jesuit priest. I remember him well because he was in the middle of a tremendous journey that I would have found impossible to undertake. After completing his first year of studies, he was given a bus ticket to Macon, Georgia. He had never been there, and his mission was to live entirely on the goodness and charity of others without staying in one place for more than... Read more

Fulton Sheen to be beatified December 21st

Last updated on: November 18, 2019 at 8:03 pm By Father Pablo Migone

Rome has announced that Archbishop Fulton Sheen will be beatified next month. Seventeen years after opening the cause for canonization, and seven years after Pope Benedict officially recognized the Archbishop lived a life of heroic virtue, the beatification ceremony will take place at Saint Mary’s Cathedral, Peoria, on December 21st at 10am. Known for his many thought-provoking writings, and his television presence, he has been better known throughout these past few years for the dispute between the Diocese of Peoria... Read more

A Need to be heard

Last updated on: October 28, 2019 at 10:38 am By Father Pablo Migone

Every person has a need to be heard. This need is significantly increased if a person has been deeply hurt. At any given encounter with an individual, he or she has a unique life story to tell that has forged his or her thought and belief. It is important to listen before speaking, especially when interacting with someone hurt through negative experiences by the Church and her members. A recent study conducted by the Barna Group notes that people want... Read more

De la Esclavitud a la Justicia

Last updated on: October 22, 2019 at 1:58 pm By Father Pablo Migone

Recientemente visité el Monumento Nacional por la Paz y la Justicia, y el Museo Legacy en Montgomery, Alabama. El sombrío monumento recuerda a más de 4,400 hombres, mujeres y niños afroamericanos que fueron linchados en los Estados Unidos entre 1877 y 1950. Estas víctimas fueron ahorcadas, quemadas vivas, abaleadas, ahogadas y golpeadas hasta la muerte por turbas de personas blancas que ignoraron la ley y a menudo actuaron en reacción a cargos falsos. El Museo Legado recuenta la historia de... Read more

Una lección del Presidente Carter

Last updated on: October 11, 2023 at 8:42 am By Father Pablo Migone

El presidente Jimmy Carter inició su estudio bíblico pidiendo a los presentes que levantaran la mano apenas entendieran el tema principal del pasaje bíblico que estaba a punto de leer. Comenzó: “amados, amémonos los unos a otros, porque el amor es de Dios”. El presidente alzó la vista al mismo tiempo que sus labios se estiraron formando una sonrisa agradable, sus ojos brillaron un poco mientras miraba a la congregación. Observó unas cuantas manos arriba en el aire. Continuó, “todos... Read more

A lesson from Jimmy Carter

Last updated on: October 12, 2019 at 12:49 pm By Father Pablo Migone

President Jimmy Carter started his Bible Study asking those present to raise their hands once they grasped the theme of the Scripture passage he was about to read. He began, “beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God.” He looked up as his lips stretched forming a gentle smile, his eyes sparkled just a bit as he looked out into the congregation. A few hands rose. He continued, “everyone who loves is begotten by God and knows... Read more

From Slavery to Justice in Montgomery

Last updated on: October 1, 2019 at 10:59 am By Father Pablo Migone

I recently visited The National Memorial for Peace and Justice, as well as The Legacy Museum: From Enslavement to Mass Incarceration in Montgomery, Alabama. The somber memorial stands in remembrance of over 4,400 African American men, women and children who were lynched between 1877 and 1950 in the United States. These victims were hanged, burned alive, shot, drowned, and beaten to death by white mobs that ignored the rule of law and oftentimes acted in response to fabricated charges. The... Read more
