Another great festival
at Xavier Knoll in Franklin has seen the goodness of our friends
who volunteer hours to make this event a good one, so that we can show our
mission support. See 70 photos of this event
At Fatima
Shrine, we are in full swing with the 13th of the Month gatherings
during the Summer.
See who is scheduled to preside at these
spiritual gatherings at the Shrine, Haven of Prayer.
Our Theology Students are
in the Hospital! Yes, it's
part of their training, as they undertake an intensive 3-month Clinical
Pastoral Education at area's Hospitals.
During the summer, Xaverians in the USA experience “church life in the outskirts”, with lots of miles on the road, in parishes never visited before. It’s the
Mission Appeal season!
You might meet Fr. Joe Matteucig, Superior of Holliston, sharing his experience in Taiwan, or Fr. Tony Lalli on his beloved Brazil,
or Fr. Alfredo Turco sharing stories about his brother in Congo, or Fr.
Dominic, at Xavier Knoll, sharing his experience in
Bangladesh.
Fr. Carl Chudy, our Provincial,
is not excused from it, with his 13 years of Philippines he plans to give
a hand to Fr. Frank in the New Jersey Area. And Frs. Lino and Pascal
take care of the mission appeals of St. Louis MO and Ohio. We thank
you for welcoming us in your parishes, as you would welcome ... a
missionary.
Diverse peoples of different faiths coming together to share common faith values, and a commitment to create a more just world is both the theme of this issue of the
Xaverian Mission Newsletter, and an important commitment of the mission of the Catholic Church.
It is a core hope which defines our identity as Xaverian Missionaries, called to those who do not believe as we do. We proclaim the Cross of Christ in a time when worldwide religious plurality is at its zenith, and intolerance to religious pluralism is at its deadliest levels.
Read articles on Christian-Buddhist Dialogue in Taiwan, the service of the Shinmeizan Prayer and Dialogue Center in Japan, how US Chinese Catholics seek dialogue beyond Christianity at St. Therese, Chinatown, Chicago, the work of Xaverians accompanying Filipino Farmers in their Struggle for Justice, and other news that touch the Xaverian
World.

Joe Matteucig in Taiwan, Icons that sustain the faith of
