1st Anniversary of my Blog! (16-17 January 2013 – present) Thank you for your support! Deo Gratias!

As of tonight, the time between 16 and 17 January 2014, my blog reaches its 1 year mark. It was begun with an inspiration exactly a year ago, just a month after I created my twitter account, inspired by the example of our dear Pope Benedict XVI who made the @Pontifex papal twitter account in early December 2012.

I thank all of those who had chanced upon my blog, and for my regular readers. I apologise for any mistakes I have made or any delay in my postings. The Lord had been kind to me throughout this past year, and He continues to encourage me to write despite some difficulties and challenges I have met along the way.

May this coming new year for my blog bring it to even greater heights, as I will soon write more about the Faith, the Church, and many catechesis of the Faith, from various official sources such as the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the Canon Law, and many others. Thank you once again for your support, and may God bless you all!

May our faith continue to strengthen and grow in God!

 

Yours in Christ,

The full document of Pope Benedict XVI’s latest Motu Proprio, Fides per Doctrinam (Faith through Doctrine) released on 16 January 2013. It’s in Italian, so if you have difficulty, I believe the translator in chrome works quite well in translating this document to English.

Motu proprio is a kind of document that is signed by the Pope and is a document issued by the Pope’s own initiative, and may deal with matter pertaining to certain parts of the faith or matters pertaining to the Church as a whole.

A short explanation on the changes brought about by this Motu Proprio, mainly concerning transfer in the duties of some offices of the Roman Curia.
