Eastern Catholic Churches

This assignment led me to a Catholic funeral. I attended this service in the town I live in. The service was for the grandmother of one of my youth in my youth group. Many of the group attended and for most of us it was quite different than anything we had been to before. I attend a Christian Church. I will be honest I had many reservation about attending this service and also had many questions after this service. As I approached the Church it was quite beautiful. I loved the stain glass…

clarification of celestial messages of God or, truth be told, the voice of God itself. Given the endorsement and asserted "endowments" of the Pope, the general population energetically sought after the campaigns. This is one of the best sins of the Roman Catholic Church all through history. In spite of the instability without bounds, for example, the sudden disappointments of the Crusades, the general population were driven by whatever the Pope directed. Indeed, numerous customs constituted by…

The Cathedral of St. Raymond Nonnatus Almost every Sunday during my youth was spent at church with the family. On many occasions, we were simply up the road at the local Catholic Church but the most memorable moments that I can recall are the ones spent with family at the Cathedral of St. Raymond Nonnatus. I had always wondered why it looked the way it did until my continuing education later in life. This a very structurally beautiful building and it acts the part of worship and school all…

wanted a relationship they would ask the girls from Saint Francis. When you look at the school it looks like a tiny elementary school because the amount of buildings we have. But besides being a small school in the city of Kalihi we are known as a Catholic School. In 2013 Damien became Co-ed, everyone was surprised because it has been a long time until now to have girls come to the school. Since their are girls at Damien now it makes things…

“‘You need to come to church with your family. I don’t care what you say,’ my mom told us every Sunday. In the Catholic Church, they never explained it to children. It was all about, you can sin and do whatever you want during the week, but then on Sundays you would come and repent. All we learned was the same things,” Jason said this matter-of-factly while sitting on the couch at his friend’s Tony house in the middle of the Colts vs. Jets game. He goes on to explain that, “I wore a shirt and…

inequality are all stories the media presents about the Catholic church . Many take this at face value, and I cannot blame them. There has been a lot of corruption associated with the church, and it may be hard for some to see that these are the actions of a few rather than the philosophy of the whole. Though the reputation of the institution may be tainted, the actual building where I attend mass, does not reflect that negativity. As a Catholic who received a parochial education for 10 years, I…

Many in the situation believe that it is the most right and just way of passing. Although many Catholics firmly believe in God having the right to take…

have gained a deeper understanding as to what it means to be Catholic. I had once thought that Catholicism was not a big part of my life but I have come to realize that it greatly affects me and how I view the world. “You’re not a real Catholic if [....]”. This is a phrase I have heard many times since I have been at Saint Mary’s. Many of the books we have read have given different definitions of what religion is so, why can’t Catholics have different definitions of what Catholicism is? I…
