Why Catholic and Jewish Supreme Court Justices?

Last updated on: March 20, 2016 at 10:46 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

When Elena Kagan was sworn in as a justice of the Supreme Court on August 7th, 2010, a truly historic moment happened.  For the first time in history there were no Protestants in the highest court of the land.  Three Jews and six Catholics became the highest ranking judges in the country.  After the sudden death of Justice Antonin Scalia last month, President Obama has nominated Merrick Garland to be his successor.  As soon as I heard the name, I... Read more

¡Crucifíquenlo! ¡Crucifíquenlo!

Last updated on: March 17, 2016 at 1:11 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Hace poco asistí a una obra única en el Savannah College of Art and Design, la cual no solo narró la triste historia de la matanza de cinco niñas en el 2006 en una escuela Amish, pero también evocó una fuerte reacción por parte del público hacia los eventos que narraba.  Primeramente un monólogo, los personajes mostraron al público un contraste marcado hacia la matanza: la misericordia de la comunidad Amish quienes perdonaron al asesino y la furia de la... Read more

Last updated on: March 18, 2016 at 6:28 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

 I recently attended a unique play at the Savannah College of Art and Design that not only told the story of the gruesome execution of five Amish school girls in 2006, but was written to evoke a strong response from the audience towards the event it recounted.  Mostly a monologue, the characters confronted the audience with a sharply contrasting response to the murder: the Amish forgave the murderer while others expressed anger towards his family.  The drama unfolded before us,... Read more

Savannah and Saint Patrick: If the Irish lose their faith, there seems no way forward

Last updated on: March 17, 2016 at 12:50 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Every year, on March 17th, the city of Savannah hosts the second largest Saint Patrick Day Parade in the United States.  Only New York City can boast that its parade is bigger than Savannah’s. Savannah has been celebrating its Irish heritage for several days already.  The Celtic Cross Mass was held last Sunday at the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist where several Irish-American societies were represented at the very solemn celebration.  Afterwards, everyone paraded to Emmet Park, the area... Read more

Increased age for ordination to priesthood?

Last updated on: March 14, 2016 at 11:54 am   By Father Pablo Migone

The Spanish weekly bulletin Alfa & Omega reports that due to increased human and affective immaturity of candidates who desire to study for the priesthood, Rome is considering increasing the minimum age required for ordination. Currently the age is 25, but a minimum age of 27 is being considered. Alfa & Omega also states that if the age is not increased, seminaries will be required to insert an introductory course prior to a man being definitively accepted into the seminary.... Read more

Encuentro con el Otro

Last updated on: March 4, 2016 at 4:49 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Cada persona percibe la realidad a través de sus sentidos. Cada colección de experiencias es única, no puede ser duplicada, ni puede ser compartida. Incluso cuando una experiencia es vivida junto a otro, la percepción de cada individuo de la experiencia es única. Cuando tenemos un encuentro con otra persona, nunca sabemos de dónde es que él o ella viene. Ignoramos las luchas, victorias, alegrías y fracasos que influyen sus puntos de vista y decisiones. Nunca conoceremos toda la historia.... Read more

Encountering the other

Last updated on: March 4, 2016 at 4:50 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Every human person experiences reality through his or her senses.  Each bundle of experiences is unique, cannot be duplicated, nor can it be shared.  Even when an experience is lived along with another, each individual’s perception of the experience is unique. When we encounter a person, we never know where the person has been.  We ignore the struggles, victories, joys and failures that influence the person’s viewpoints and choices.  We will never know the whole story.  While in high school,... Read more

Una noche en el Oscar: Spotlight y la Iglesia Católica

Last updated on: February 29, 2016 at 7:18 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Hace algunos meses asistí a la proyección de la película Spotlight, una película sobre la investigación que condujo el periódico The Boston Globe hace trece años por la cual se descubrió la presencia de abuso sexual cometido por sacerdotes en la Arquidiócesis de Boston. Esta misma película ganó ayer un Oscar por ser la mejor película del año. La película fue difícil de mirar. Representó realísticamente el sufrimiento incomprensible de las víctimas de abuso sexual, la falta absoluta de los... Read more

Savannah Pilgrimage of Mercy

Last updated on: February 21, 2016 at 8:02 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

The Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Savannah welcomed well over 1,200 faithful from all corners of the diocese for an official Year of Mercy Pilgrimage.  Responding to the call of Pope Francis to go on pilgrimage during this Jubilee Year, Bishop Hartmayer invited all the faithful of the diocese to an afternoon of prayer and mercy at the diocesan mother church. Pilgrims had an opportunity to enter the cathedral through the Holy Door which was beautifully decorated.  Some arrived... Read more

Pensamientos de un refugiado

Last updated on: February 19, 2016 at 5:11 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

Algunos años después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, mientras Europa aun enfrentaba una grave crisis de personas desplazadas y refugiados, el Papa Pio XII escribió la Constitución Apostólica Exul Familia Nazarethana donde subrayó la necesidad de que naciones abran sus puertas a estas personas y enfatizó la acción pastoral de la Iglesia. Citando a la Sagrada Familia como el arquetipo de toda familia de refugiados, el Papa invocó su protección sobre todos los migrantes y refugiados que “por medio de... Read more
