Jean Frisk, Friday, July 15, 2:30 PM on Our Lady of Mount Carmel II From the Marian Treasure Chest Class Notes: Golden Flyers (in the Summer 2011 issue of University of Dayton Magazine) Brother John Samaha, S.M., '52 (EDS) Brother John lives at the Marianist Center in Cupertino, California. He writes "each issue of the magazine is eye-catching, interesting, and informative. Each issue brings back memories of times I spent at UD studying or helping at The Marian Library/IMRI and the great people I encountered on campus. Since I can no longer travel, the magazine keeps me connected with my alma mater. Of the twenty-eight Marianists in our community, eleven of us are UD Golden alums. As time and energy permit, I continue my interest in teaching by writing articles and speaking to local groups about a variety of religious topics."

Benedict XVI Visits John Paul II Exhibit Before leaving the Vatican for Castel Gandolfo, Benedict XVI on Wednesday visited an exhibit dedicated to Blessed John Paul II. The Vatican exhibit brings viewers through the life of the Polish Pontiff using pictures, images and other items, which span from his childhood to his funeral, to the canonical process that culminated in his beatification. The exhibition shows the kayak used in the 60s by then Auxiliary Bishop Karol Wojtyła of Krakow. It includes his ski boots, too, and a stone from the Zakrzowek quarries; the badge of a Solvay worker, where he worked during World War II; and the reproduction of a manifesto of a literary evening in which he participated. Also on display is the request for admission to diaconal ordination, dated Oct. 13, 1946, and a permit to have a bike obtained in June of 1956. There is the scapular of the Virgin of Carmel that he always wore, his amber rosary, his priestly cassock, his Episcopal ring and some of his literary works translated into several languages. Benedict XVI was also able to see images of the May 13, 1981, assassination attempt, and sections dedicated to jubilees and World Youth Days, including the original wooden cross entrusted by John Paul II to young people at Easter of 1984.

The director and editors of The Mary Page under the auspices of the International Marian Research Institute do not necessarily endorse or agree with the events and ideas expressed in this feature. Our sole purpose is to report on items about Mary gleaned from a myriad of papers representing the secular press.
A new book paints a loving portrait of the life of Father Philip Hoelle, S.M., a Marianist priest who shaped
countless lives over nine decades. A Kettering couple has published a biography of a beloved Marianist priest who quietly inspired countless lives. Joseph and Joanne Kepes will sign copies of their newly published book, Philip C. Hoelle, S.M.: Servant Priest, from 4 to 7 p.m. on Friday, July 15, at St. Mark Bookshop in Centerville. Before the Rev. Philip C. Hoelle, S.M., died in 2005 at the age of 93, he founded the Dakota Center in west Dayton, co-founded the Dayton Christian-Jewish Dialogue and helped build the University of Dayton's Marian Library into the world's largest repository of printed material about Mary, the mother of Jesus. In 1993, the University of Dayton's National Alumni Association awarded him the Christian Service Award. He was the first recipient of the Dakota Center's Founder's Award for thirty years of service to minority youth. The Rev. Bertrand Buby, S.M., professor emeritus of religious studies who teaches in the International Marian Research Institute on campus, calls the book a "lively, accurate and clear narrative" that paints a memorable portrait of a quiet, modest priest who "truly helped Mary carry out her mission of bringing Jesus to others." The book is available online through the North American Center for Marianist Studies (nacms.org) and at St. Mark Bookshop, 895 S. Main St., in Centerville. For media interviews or more information, contact Joseph and Joanne Kepes at 937-434-2580 Click here to see the complete article. |
