catholic university of america in my hometown of washington dc and has been appointed as a member of the international theological commission

in the philippines he worked in various parishes as rector of the diocesan seminary

and for many years as a professor of theology in four different seminaries Pope John Paul II,

in 2001, appointed him Bishop of Emus, a diocese of 2 .6 million Catholics.

In 2011, he was appointed Archbishop of Manila, and he was appointed Cardinal in 2012,

at the ripe old age of 55.

he participated in almost every synod at least

that i remember every week he has his own television program

the word exposed cardinal tagley comments on the readings of the

mass for the following sunday he is the president of the catholic biblical federation and is president of caritas internationalis.

And I present to you now Cardinal Taile.

Thank you.

Thank you, Your Eminence.

Hello.

Good afternoon.

Buenas tardes.

Buon pomeriggio.

As we come to the conclusion of this symposium,

we renew our thanks and congratulations to the organizers, especially his eminence, Cardinal Marc Ouellet,

whose initiative and perseverance have inspired us all.

Thank you very much, your eminence. And you, dear participants,

have been gifted with much teaching and wisdom from the Holy Father himself and our speakers these past days.

most of you probably desire to go now at this moment to a quiet place

to internalize and pray over what you have heard am i right yes

so i have decided to offer a light and hopefully brief reflection on the topic,

the joy of mission.

And, Tante Grazie, Chiara, for you ended your sharing with la gioia, la gioia.

We did not talk about this, so it must have been God's hand at work.

The joy of mission.

Let me start by sharing two experiences.

During the Synod of Bishops on the Youth,

the bishops in our English -speaking language group asked some of the youth representatives about their friends'

or peers' impression of the Church.

What do the young people think of the Church?

And one of them said,

and I quote, The experience of my friends of their parish is that of priests who are angry,

impatient, negative, and unapproachable.

They criticize persons during homilies and talk always about rules.

So after the Mass, my friends go to the Bible services of other Christian groups to encounter Jesus.

I was shocked and saddened to hear this.

But at the same time, I was glad to have been challenged by the youth.

The other experience happened during the celebration of Catechetical Month in the diocese,

attended by children, their parents, and the catechists.

Instead of giving a conference,

I interviewed some children about what they have learned in catechism classes.

Many of them gave wonderful answers that must have affirmed the catechists.

But one girl raised her hand.

I asked her what her significant experience of her catechist was,

to which she answered, Quiet!

Quiet!

Then the girl sat down.

That was her experience of catechism.

Why are you laughing?

These experiences prompted me to reflect on joy in the lives of the baptized and lay and ordained ministers.

Even in ordinary life, there are many reasons why we feel tired empty, and joyless.

But I ask myself, is it possible that one reason for the loss of joy in a baptized person

or a minister of the church is the lack or weakening of the sense of mission?

Without a commitment to mission,

The priesthood of the baptized or consecrated life and the ministerial priesthood are deprived of joy.

Why?

Because the priesthood of Christ is intrinsically linked to his mission.

Yeah.

End of introduction.

I now go to three simple points.

I hope they will sound simple.

The first point, the priesthood of Christ, according to the letter to the Hebrews.

According to the author of the letter,

Jesus' unique priesthood, which surpasses and fulfills all other forms of priesthood,

is a priesthood of a holy life, a life that is sacrifice.

The word sacrifice does not mean suffering.

Sacrifice, satsher, or set apart, facere, to make, to make holy.

That's sacrifice.

And therefore, a life made holy is pleasing to God.

It is the sacrifice acceptable to God.

There are two main components to Jesus' priesthood and sacrifice of a holy life.

The first is his total obedience to the Father who sent him.

Hebrews says, and I quote,

come to do your will, O God.

Hebrews 10, 5 -7 The holiness of someone who in his body will do the will of God.

The second element of holiness is Jesus' communion with and compassion, mercy towards sinners.

This is holiness.

The letter to the Hebrew says, and I quote, Jesus was made for a little while lower than the angels,

that through God's gracious will, he might taste death for the sake of all men and women.

Indeed, it was fitting that when bringing many children to glory,

God should make their leader in the work of salvation perfect through suffering.

He who consecrates and those who are consecrated have one and the same father.

Therefore, he is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.

Hebrews 2, 9 to 11.

Calling the sinners, the wounded sinners, as my brothers and sisters.

That's part of Jesus' holy life.

The priesthood of Jesus is completely missionary and continues to be so,

for he intercedes eternally for his brothers and sisters before the Father in the heavenly sanctuary.

This is the priesthood that Jesus shares with all the baptized

100

and on the foundation of baptism with all ministers and states of life in the church.

101

Jesus' priesthood is a holy missionary life.

102

Remove mission, there will be no joy.

103

No joy in those who share in the priesthood of Christ, in baptism, in other states of life,

104

and in the ministerial priesthood.

105

The second point, participating in the missionary priesthood of Christ.

106

It is not surprising that Jesus called disciples to be with him and to be sent by him as witnesses.

107

It's always that, called to be with him in order to be sent.

108

During his public ministry and after his resurrection,

109

Jesus called companions, students, or followers so that he could send them as his witnesses.

110

Discipleship and mission are linked to each other as seen in the New Testament texts. For example,

111

he appointed twelve that they might be with him

112

and he might send them forth to preach and to have authority to drive out demons.

113

Mark 3, 14 and 15.

114

Jesus said to his disciples, It was not you who chose me,

115

but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain.

116

John 15, verse 16.

117

And we are today glad to hear again the words, As the Father loves me, so I also love you.

118

Remain in my love.

119

So we will say, oh, so I remain with you.

120

But then Jesus will also say, as the Father has sent me, so I send you.

121

Those are not contradictory in the mind of Jesus.

122

Remaining in him and being sent by him while remaining in him the ones Jesus loves are the ones he sends

123

dangerous love the more he loves you the more he sends you When Jesus sent his disciples,

124

he promised that the Holy Spirit would accompany them.

125

He says, when the advocate comes, whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth that proceeds from the Father,

126

he will testify to me.

127

And you also testify because you have been with me from the beginning.

128

You have been with me, so now go and testify.

129

John 15, 26 to 27.

130

We are in awe of having been called to belong to Jesus and share in his mission.

131

It is the joy not of creating or promoting one's own project,

132

but of participating in God's salvific plan in the missions of Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

133

It is the joy not of inventing one's message, but of proclaiming what one has heard,

134

seen, looked upon, and touched of the word of life.

135

It is the joy not of boasting of one's knowledge of the Lord,

136

but of humbly being led by the Holy Spirit's testimony to Jesus.

137

It is the joy not of being obsessed with achievements,

138

degrees, I have a doctorate,

139

you only a master's degree.

140

I deserve the cathedral, you deserve a village parish.

141

That's not joy.

142

It's obsession with achievements.

143

It is the joy of gratitude to him who makes weak and sinful disciples strong by his grace.

144

We wish every baptized Christian would experience the joy of being a disciple missionary.

145

Without a vibrant friendship with Jesus,

146

mission easily becomes a burdensome work performed by

147

so -called missionaries who feel more like slaves than friends of Jesus and witnesses to the good news.

148

But without mission, discipleship might become a lifeless prison.

149

I met a former student of mine in the country to which his religious superior had sent him.

150

This is a religious ordained minister.

151

From the conversation, I learned that in the village where he ministered, there was only one Catholic.

152

Only one Catholic.

153

Feeling sorry for him,

154

I asked him if he were not frustrated that after almost 15 years of rigorous religious and seminary formation,

155

he would end up having only one parishioner.

156

But with a serene smile, he said, that one Catholic is my flock.

157

I will give to him all of my love and energy.

158

Mission gives a baptized in an ordained religious zeal and joy.

159

even if you have only one parishioner.

160

We need to add immediately that while Jesus called his disciples by name in a uniquely personal manner,

161

he also called them to be with other disciples.

162

As Chiara reminded us, St. Augustine, with you, I am a Christian.

163

He sent them on mission with other disciples and missionaries.

164

Discipleship forms community, which in turn becomes the womb that begets other disciples.

165

Mission forms community, which in turn becomes the flame that fires up other missionaries.

166

According to the first letter of John,

167

the proclamation of the word of life by a disciple missionary to a listener has for its purpose,

168

and I quote, so that you too may have communion with us.

169

For our communion is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ.

170

We are writing this so that our joy may be complete.

171

The first letter of John, chapter 1, 3 and 4.

172

The Christian community, as narrated by the first letter of John, began in a very simple manner,

173

by which a disciple shares Jesus to a listener,

174

who, upon receiving Jesus, forms a bond of communion with the proclaimer.

175

But that fellowship or communion between two or three persons is indeed a communion with the Father and with Jesus,

176

the divine and the human.

177

Simple human interaction or conversation centered on the word of life

178

that fosters unity I think needs to be encouraged in our time,

179

especially in families, schools, workplaces,

180

Recreation centers, hospitals, social media,

181

during coffee break, and simple gatherings of friends.

182

Sometimes we make things very complicated.

183

Evangelization.

184

It is a conversation.

185

It is a conversation about Jesus.

186

We also need to emphasize the proclamation of the Word in dialogue with all the nations,

187

cultures, and tongues of the world.

188

The communion of the Christian community is not meant only for smooth personal and working relationships among ourselves.

189

It is essential to authentic discipleship and missionary witness.

190

Jesus prayed I pray not only for them

191

but also for those who will believe in me through their word

192

so that they may be one as you Father are in me and I in you

193

that they also may be in us that the world may believe that you sent me John 17.

194

So the communion of disciples and missionaries,

195

no, either gives testimony or denies the truth about Jesus.

196

The unity of the Father with Jesus whom he sent must be mirrored in the unity of those sent to proclaim Jesus.

197

In our contemporary world, beset with nationalist and ethnic divisions,

198

discrimination, armed conflicts, inequality, the communion of disciple missionaries from different walks of life and nations testifies to the truth of Jesus.

199

The risen Lord clearly stated, Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.

200

Matthew 28.

201

And the disciples from their nations will go to other nations.

202

And as one community of diverse nations, they will go together to all human,

203

social, cultural, economic spaces in the spirit of dialogue centered on the Word.

204

The joy of priestly mission springs from the conviction

205

that Christians belong to each other and to all human beings because we belong to Jesus.

206

It is the joy not of independence, but of relationships.

207

It is the joy not of self -sufficiency, but of core responsibility.

208

It is the joy not of lording it over others, but of journeying with them.

209

It is the joy not of group or national superiority,

210

but of mutual respect, appreciation, and enrichment.

211

We wish Christians could ignite this joy in a world grown tired of individualism.

212

suspicion, and fear of the other.

213

When destructive and dehumanizing competition enters the Christian community and its mission,

214

the whole world becomes a lonelier and darker place.

215

May the groanings of despair rising from all corners of the world, indeed, from the whole of creation,

216

we hope would turn into a symphony of joy through the communion of hearts

217

and the voices of disciple missionaries of Jesus Christ from all nations.

218

I met a Filipino woman working as a babysitter here in Italy.

219

There are many, many Filipinos here in Italy.

220

She admitted that every time she prepares the meals of the two Italian children under her care,

221

she wonders who is preparing the meals of her children in the Philippines.

222

This is the daily cross,

223

maybe even crucifixion, of a migrant parent.

224

To my surprise and consolation,

225

she added, But when I look at the two beautiful Italian children before me,

226

I promise that I would give them the love that my own children deserve serve.

227

This disciple missionary mother bridges families, nations, and cultures.

228

And I want to say the world is a better place because of her.

229

The third and final point, priesthood, ministry, and mission.

230

I served as a seminary rector for many years, I think around 15 years.

231

The words I used to address to the bishop during the ordination of a deacon or a presbyter always struck me,

232

always struck me.

233

I used to say as rector,

234

Most Reverend Father, Holy Mother Church asks you to ordain this,

235

our brother, to the responsibility of the diaconate or priesthood.

236

Then the ordaining bishop responds, Do you know him to be worthy?

237

You have to sound episcopal.

238

And my response, according to the ritual,

239

was, After inquiry among the Christian people and upon the recommendation of those responsible,

240

I testify that he has been found worthy.

241

The bishop closes by saying, Relying on the help of the Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ,

242

we choose this, our brother, for the order of the diaconate or priesthood.

243

The community says, Thanks be to God, or applause.

244

Now, those who have attended many ordinations might consider this opening rite as a formality.

245

But no, it contains a spirituality and theology that the church has kept sacred for centuries.

246

So let us dwell on some of the details.

247

The rite is very clear.

248

It is not the person to be ordained that asks for ordination.

249

It is Holy Mother Church that asks the bishop to ordain a person.

250

No one can call oneself, no one can present oneself,

251

and no one can apply for ordination.

252

There are some canonists here.

253

I always have a problem with that, no?

254

We ask candidates to apply.

255

And then during the ordination, there's no application.

256

Okay, let me finish this.

257

No one declares oneself as worthy of ordination.

258

It is the discernment of the Christian people and those responsible that establishes the worthiness of a person for ministry.

259

The bishop openly declares that ultimately the church relies on the help of the Lord God

260

and Jesus Christ in accepting someone to ordained ministry.

261

Now, please don't get me wrong without denying the profoundly personal aspect of the baptismal calling

262

and the calling to ministry and to religious life,

263

we should not forget the essential role of the church in discerning

264

and calling someone to ministry and therefore the role of the church in sending someone.

265

If discipleship and ministry become purely personal pursuits of self -fulfillment,

266

something is lacking in my heart.

267

So I will enter the seminary.

268

If discipleship and ministry become purely personal pursuits of self -fulfillment,

269

there will never be joy but only anxiety and apprehension caused by self -promotion and competition.

270

Deepening the ministerial and missionary aspect of baptismal discipleship would enrich the discernment of vocations to ministry and states of life.

271

We can also revisit the role of the church community

272

and its leaders and their criteria in discerning the needs of the community for ministers

273

and apply them to our times in the spirit of the Acts of the Apostles, chapter 1, 15 to 26,

274

the choice of Matthias to replace Judas Iscariot, the Acts of the Apostles,

275

chapter 6, 1 to 6,

276

the institution of the ministry of the seven in response to the needs of the Greek -speaking widows.

277

And Acts 13, 1 to 3,

278

the setting aside of Barnabas and Saul by the Holy Spirit discerned by the prophets and teachers in Antioch.

279

Some of the criteria that were used by the apostles then were the sacred scriptures,

280

the emerging pastoral needs, respects for the ministry specific to each other,

281

the qualifications required by the ministry to name a few.

282

But they prayed, they fasted,

283

and allowed God to act through them like casting of lots.

284

No one presented oneself as a candidate.

285

The church called them.

286

The church sent them.

287

I suppose all of us here are baptized can I presume that

288

and I suppose all of us are in some form of ministry

289

or state of life whether lay ministry or ordained ministry

290

let me provoke a bit I would ask you to recall how you got where you are did you apply

291

for the position?

292

Were you called and commissioned by the church?

293

Calling oneself, presenting oneself, obeying oneself,

294

and sending oneself where one chooses to go, make people anxious, not joyful.

295

May the joy of the Lord be your strength.

296

Andat in touch.

297

Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
