CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Diocesan Chancery It is in the diocesan chancery that, under the direction of the bishop or his representative, all documents which concern the diocese are drawn up, copied, forwarded, and a record kept of all official writings expedited or received. In European dioceses the chancery is organized variously, according to the extent of the diocese. In the Diocese of Breslau there exists an institution known as the "Secret Chancery" (Geheimkanzlei) which expedites only matters decided by the prince-bishop personally or with the advice of this body. www.newadvent.org /cathen/04798c.htm   (987 words)

The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church - The Roman Curia The origins of the Apostolic Chancery are to be sought out in the very ancient office, going back to the IV century, of the notaries of Holy Roman Church, headed by the primicerius who was in turn aided hy the secundicerius. The apostolic constitution Regimi Ecclesiae Universae, issued by Paul VI on August 15, 1967, changed the name of this congregation to Council for the Public Affairs of the Church, distinguishing it from the secretariat of State. The prelates of the Penitentiary meet periodically, under the presidency of the cardinal grand penitentiary, for whom they act as a council, in the meeting which has the name of Signature of the Sacred Apostolic Penitentiary. www.fiu.edu /~mirandas/curia.htm   (3417 words)

The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church - Guide to documents and events (76-2005) Suppressed the office of the Apostolic Chancery of the Holy Roman Church (originated in the 4th century) and its functions were transferred to the Secretariat of State. Benedict XV in his apostolic constitution Ex actis tempore, February 1, 1915, revoked this regulation about the suffragan bishops, and cardinal bishops were again placed at the head of the dioceses from which they derived their rank in the Sacred College. This motu proprio established that senior cardinal priests or deacons were no longer to have the right to opt for suburbicarian sees made vacant by the death of cardinal bishops but reserved for the pope the right to make the appointment to them. www.fiu.edu /~mirandas/guide-xx.htm   (3313 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Holy See Covarruvias and Gonzalez agree that: "Curia Romana ibi censetur esse, ubi est papa cum cancellaria et tribunalibus et officialibus suis, quos ad regimen ecclesiae adhibet" (the Roman Curia is considered to be where the pope is, with the chancery, tribunals, and officials whom he employs in the Government of the Church). In this canonical and diplomatic sense, the term is synonymous with "Apostolic See", "Holy Apostolic See", "Roman Church", "Roman Curia".The origin of these terms can only be approximately ascertained. Thus, it was not deemed necessary that the pope should reside in Rome: "Ubi Papa, ibi Curia", i.e., it was taken for granted that the Curia or machinery of administration always followed the pope. www.newadvent.org /cathen/07424b.htm   (692 words)

In this canonical and diplomatic sense, the term is synonymous with "Apostolic See", "Holy Apostolic See", "Roman Church", "Roman Curia".The origin of these terms can only be approximately ascertained. During the journey of Martin V (1417-1431) from Constance to Rome it frequently occurred that the pope and ecclesiastical authorities were separated from each other; even at this late date the official location of the "Holy See", in as far as this was legally important, was not yet authoritatively fixed. www.newadvent.org /cathen/07424b.htm   (692 words)

The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church - Guide to documents and events (76-2005) By the motu proprio Quo aptius, February 27, 1973, Paul VI (1963-1978) suppressed the office of the Apostolic Chancery of the Holy Roman Church (originated in the 4th century) and transferred its functions to the secretariat of state. Pius IV also decreed that the cells for the cardinals should be decided by drawing lots and the conclave and the conclave placed under strict surveillance. Signed by all the cardinals of the time, Pius IV decided that the conclave should not possess funds other than thos strictly necessary to meet the expenses of its own deliberations and those of the previous pope's funeral, with the sum fixed at 1,000 ducats. www.fiu.edu /~mirandas/guide-xvi.htm   (2842 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Vatican A place of great activity is the Secret Chancery of the Holy Father; here are discharged all affairs pertaining to the pope in so far as they do not belong to any of the special departments. They have also to take up their position in all pontifical functions in the papal chapels and in all other religious functions both within and without the Apostolic Palaces (the latter are now confined to St. Peter's) at which the pope assists. This great hall serves to-day as a waiting-room, as a vesting-room in the case of great receptions in the Consistorial Hall, and on rare occasions for the reception of pilgrimages or large deputations. www.newadvent.org /cathen/15276b.htm   (2842 words)

Archbishop Cornelius Power Bishop Power was next promoted to the See of Portland in Oregon, and was installed as seventh Archbishop of Portland in Oregon in the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Portland on April 17, 1974, by the Most Reverend Jean Jadot, D.D., Apostolic Delegate to the United States. During these 26 years, Father Power also served his Archdiocese in the Seattle Chancery on special assignments. Archbishop Cornelius M.

Papal encyclicals regarding Freemasonry Although the name "bull" is a popular term used for all kinds of instruments which issue from the papal chancery, few of the condemnations of Freemasonry are strictly speaking bulls. In modern times, usage has confined the term almost exclusively to certain papal documents which differ in their technical form from the ordinary style of either Bulls or Briefs, and which in their superscription are explicitly addressed to the patriarchs, primates, archbishops, and bishops of the Universal Church in communion with the Apostolic See. Papal Constitutions (Constituere) are ordinations issued by the Roman pontiffs and binding those for whom they are issued, whether they be for all the faithful or for special classes or individuals. freemasonry.bcy.ca /anti-masonry/papal_encyclicals.html   (858 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Election The election of bishops by chapters is still, theoretically, the common rule, but the general reservation formulated in the second rule of the Apostolic Chancery has suppressed in practice the application of this law; episcopal elections, in the strict sense of the word, occur now in only a small number of sees (see BISHOP). An election may be disputed by whoever is interested in it, in which case the question of its validity is referred to the superior, in accordance with the same rule as for judicial appeals. The law appoints competent electors for each kind of election: cardinals for the election of a pope; the cathedral chapter for the election of a bishop or a vicar capitular; and the various chapters of their order, etc. for the election of regular prelates. www.newadvent.org /cathen/05374b.htm   (4598 words)

History - Antiquariaat W. De Goeij Giovanni Giustino Ciampini (Rome 1633 - 1698) became, after his law studies ''Magister'' at the Apostolic Chancery, which left him time to pursue his lifelong interest in Roman and Early Christian antiquity. The history begins with a life of St. Ignatius and the founding of the order and continues with three substantial volumes devoted to the Jesuit missions in Asia and the Far East, the first on Asia in general, and the second and third on Japan and China in particular. The volume on the history of the Jesuits in Asia was first published in 1653 as volume 2 of the 6. users.telenet.be /wimdegoeij/catHX.htm   (12569 words)

CANONS of IOC Bishops may be elected from among the presbyters or deacons of this jurisdiction or, called from other valid, apostolic jurisdictions.

Popes As a patron of the arts, Alexander erected a centre for the University of Rome, restored the Castel Sant'Angelo, built the monumental mansion of the Apostolic Chancery, embellished the Vatican palaces, and persuaded Michelangelo to draw plans for the rebuilding of St. Peter's Basilica. Despite the shadow of simony that surrounded the disposal of his benefices among the papal electors, Rodrigo emerged from a tumultuous conclave on the night of Aug. 10-11, 1492, as Pope Alexander VI and received the acclaim of the Roman populace. Charles, at the instigation of a rival cardinal of the influential della Rovere family, threatened the Pope with deposition and the convocation of a reform council. www.wga.hu /database/glossary/popes/alexand6.html   (680 words)

97-3-damico-oz.html In the years 1955-56 the Apostolic process was held in the Chancery Office of the archdiocese of Paris, more than 100 years after the death of the Venerable. The delay was due to the obvious need for an in-depth study of someone so involved, and in so many ways, in the world of the laity, and to the unfavourable political climate in France, and to the World War. On June 25 the Holy Father, by the Decree super miro, ratified the decision of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints. www.famvin.org /cm/curia/vincentiana/1997/97-3-damico-oz.html   (680 words)

Boston Globe / Spotlight / Abuse in the Catholic Church The first guest, according to a chancery spokesman, was Archbishop Pio Laghi, the Apostolic Delegate to the United States, who had flown up from Washington for the installation. At the archbishop's residence at the top of the hill, he was greeted by a group of students, teachers and workers from the seminary -- as well as the 20- member Boston College band. They had written Archbishop Law a welcoming letter and, at the impromptu suggestion of their teacher, came to deliver it to a caretaker at the residence. www.boston.com /globe/spotlight/abuse/archives/032384_law.htm   (998 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Papal Regesta Besides the regular Regesta of the papal letters made in the papal chancery, there were similar Regesta of the papal letters executed since the fourteenth century in the Apostolic Camera. Papal Regesta are the copies, generally entered in special registry volumes, of the papal letters and official documents that are kept in the papal archives; the name, further, is also used to indicate the modern publications containing such documents in chronological order with careful summaries of their essential contents. For these reasons there is hardly any doubt that from a very early date a copy was made of papal documents before their dispatch, and that the collection of these documents was preserved at the seat of the central administration of the Roman Church. www.newadvent.org /cathen/12715a.htm   (998 words)

richmond diocese Father Thomas J. Quinlan, pastor of the Church of the Holy Family in Virginia Beach, made the proposal; the Diocesan Council of Priests and Bishop Sullivan endorsed it; and it was sent to the apostolic nuncio in Washington, who forwarded it to the Vatican. In a meeting with the chancery staff earlier this year, Bishop Sullivan said while he had not initially favored the split he does so now. Thomas J. Caroluzza, episcopal vicar for eastern Virginia, said Bishop Sullivan has been "magnificent as a pastoral bishop." But the Richmond Diocese's growing population threatens to erode the close connection that Catholics have with him and would hope to have with their next bishop, he said. www.catholicherald.com /cns/richmond.htm   (638 words)
