THE POPE PRAISES THE WORK OF THE NOTRE-DAME UNIVERSITY
Vatican City, 30 January 2014 (VIS) - The American Catholic University
Notre-Dame du Lac, known as Notre Dame, located in South Bend, Indiana,
U.S.A., and funded by Fr. Edward Sorin in 1842, of the Congregation of Santa
Cruz. For this reason, this
morning the Pope received the Managing Board of the institution, which from
its founding, "has made an outstanding contribution to the Church in your
country through its commitment to the religious education of the young and to
serious scholarship
inspired by confidence in the harmony of faith and reason in the pursuit of
truth and virtue.
"The vision which guided Father Edward Sorin and the first religious of the
Congregation of Holy Cross in establishing the University of Notre Dame du Lac
remains, in the changed circumstances of the twenty-first century, central to
the
University's distinctive identity and its service to the Church and American
society. In my recent Apostolic Exhortation on the Joy of the Gospel, I
stressed the missionary dimension of Christian discipleship, which needs to be
evident in the
lives of individuals and in the workings of each of the Church's institutions.
This commitment to 'missionary discipleship' ought to be reflected in a
special way in Catholic universities, which by their very nature are committed
to demonstrating
the harmony of faith and reason and the relevance of the Christian message for
a full and authentically human life".
For this reason, "essential in this regard is the uncompromising witness of
Catholic universities to the Church's moral teaching, and the defence of her
freedom, precisely in and through her institutions, to uphold that teaching as
authoritatively proclaimed by the magisterium of her pastors. It is my hope
that the University of Notre Dame will continue to offer unambiguous testimony
to this aspect of its foundational Catholic identity, especially in the face
of efforts, from
whatever quarter, to dilute that indispensable witness".
