The first solemn exposition of the
Blessed Sacrament took place on Jan.
z, 1857. AT first, the Blessed Sacra-
ment was exposed three days a week
Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Father Eymard's aim was to have exc
position continuously from Holy Sat-
urday to the following Holy Thurs
day.
Pope Plus TX signed a laudatory
brief, for the young order the first
step in the approval of a new congre-
cation, Jan. 5, 1859. The final brief of
appreciation was given June 3, 1868.
BY this time, two other houses had
been founded, one in Marseilles and
n in Anglers.
In 1858, with Marguerite elliot, who
became Mother Marguerite of the
Blessed Sacrament, he founded the
Servants of the Blessed Sacrament so
that ONE could share in the voca-
ton of alteration. The order now num-
bersr 400 members in Is houses.
FATHER EYMARD organized two
associations to foster devotion to the
Eucharist: the Priests Eucharistic
League, which nov 1as 10000 MEM
bers, who spend an hour a week be-
fore the Blessed Sacrament; and the
Peoples Eucharistic League, whose
more than a million members, besides
spending time in alteration, provide
materials needed for exposition.
When Father EyTnard died Aug. 1,
1868, the Blessed Sacrament Fathers
had five houses in France and Bel
GUM. They now have 104 houses, di-
vided among IA provinces and one vice
province, in % countries. Their US.
headquarters are in New York City.
Father Eymard's cause was intro
duced in 1899 and he was beatified by
Pope Plus XI July II, 1925.
The cures attributed to Blessed Pc
ter - two are necessary for canoniZa-
ton involve a French priest and an
Australian housewife.
A CONSISTORY, a formal prelimi-
nary to canonization, was held Nov.
Is by His Holiness Pope John XIII
to hear the opinions of cardinals, pa
triarchs and bishops on the ~canoniza-
ton Of Blessed Peter Eymard.
Blessed Peter will be canonized on
Dec. 9, along with two others: Bless
ed Francesca Maria Crosse, a Capu-
chin Brother who lived from 1904 to
1866 and was beatified in 1929; and
Blessed Antonio Pucci, a Servite
priest VINO lived from 1919 to 1892
and was beatified in 1852.

Apostle of the Blessed Sacrament
Peter Julian Eymard to be canonized

went back home with his father and
sister.
Young Eymard's father still did not
want him to become a priest. He was
finally persuaded by Father Joseph Fl.
Guibert, O.M.I., later CardinaI-Arch-
bishop of Paris, to let his son enter
the novitiate of the Oblates of Mary
Immaculate in Marseilles.
Peter entered in June, 1929, but he
had to leave because of poor health
six months later.
Peter Julian's father died after a
short illness on March 3, 1881, and Pc
ter was free to study for the priest
hood. He was admitted to the diocesan
seminary in Grenoble in October,
1881, and was ordained July 20, 1884.
In October he was assigned as curate
in Chattee. Three years later, when he
was only 26, he was appointed pastor
in Monteynard. The people there had
not had a pastor since the French Rev.
olution at the end of the 18th century.
Within two years, all the parishioners
had returned to reception of the sacra-
ments.
FATHER EYMARD left the par
ish in 1889 and, with his bishops per-
mission, entered the Marist Fathers
novitiate in Lyons. He took his vows
as a Marist on Feb. 16, 1910. Father
Jean Claude Colin, who founded the
society in 1916, appointed Father Ety.
mard spiritual director of a prepara-
tory seminary in Belley.
In 1914 he was appointed Provincial
Superior of the Marists in Lyons; in
1845, director general of the Third
Order of Mary; and was Visitor Gem
eral of the Marists from 1876 to 1850,
when he replaced an ailing master of
novices.
The following year, on Feb. 2, while
he was praying at the shrine of Our
Lady of Fourviere in Lyons, Our La
dy is said to have asked him to found
a congregation devoted to honoring
the Blessed Sacrament.
Father Eymard submitted his idea
of founding a society of alteration of
the Blessed Sacrament to Pope Plus
TX who replied on June %, 1858: st
is a beautiful thought. If it materializ-
es, | will give it my encouragement"
HE WAS RELEASED from his
VOWS as a Marist so that he could de-
vote himself to the work of organizing
the new congregation. On June l,
1856, Father Eymard opened the first
house of the Congregation of Priests
of the Blessed Sacrament in Paris with
n companion, Father Raymond de
CuerS.

BOOK REVIEW:

THE VATICAN COUNCIL 1862
1870. By Dom. Cuthbert Butler, West
minister, Md: Newman, 1862. PIP.
$40. Cloth $685.. Paper $1.95.
Over 30 years have passed since the
first appearance of 'The Vatican
Council by Abbot Butler. Shortly af-
ter its printing this book was hailed
as the classic" work on the First
Vatican Council - an appel a t
which these 80 years have failed to
diminish.
The present work is a slightly alb
breviated edition of Dom Buffers orr
ginal work which, as the editor does
not fail to note, makes no attempt to
revise the well considered judgments
which make the book not only a his
tory, but also a critique of Vatican I.
That 'The Vatican Council 1862
1897 is the result of scholarly re-
search, no one can deny. Dom Butler
consulted not only the collections Of
the acts and documents of the coun-
Gil, but also histories of Vatican I
and numerous subsidiary sources such
as the letters and diaries of the Con-
cilar Fathers.
PROMINENT AMONG the latter is
the correspondence of Bishop Ulla-
thorne which, as Dom Butler himself
states, has served to give consecutive
information on the workings of the
council from the inside.
This insight into the Goth ecumeni-
cal council is perhaps the most out
standing quality of Dom Buffers
work. Too often / think we laymen
tend to regard the Church as some
thing rather than as a corporate body
of individuals.
An important consequence of this
misconception is that we forget that
those who are commissioned to guide
the Church are likewise individuals.
We fail to make a distinction between
what the Church is and what a pre-
late does.
Somehow we have failed to realize
that the. Church's leaders are fallible
in their judgments - that they too
can make errors - a fact which they
will readily admit.
THIS REALIZATION that church
men are not 'errorless" and, in fact,
never intend to have themselves re-

Interest in scripturaI rosary gro,Os

1t may come as a surprise to learn that in this
Jet age there is renewed interest in a Rosary devotion
that has been all but forgotten since the late Middle
Ages.
In that era 1475-1575 AD.-there was a special
meditation for each Hail Mary. People recited these
meditations either before or after each PRAYER. To-
gether they told the story of the Mystery.
The current interest in this method began when
is was discovered that the townsfolk of a little noun
tain village called Schrocken, high in the Austrian
Alps, have continued to pray the medieval Rosary.
INVESTIGATION of their way of praying the
Rosary inspired the publication of a new prayer book
let entitled the "Scriptural Rosary" In this booklet,
the medltatlons have been modified, so that each is
drawn directly from the Scriptures.
Thus this modern version of the Schocken Rosary
is called the "Scriptural Rosary" The ten S~criptural
verses for each decade blend together to tell the story
of the Mystery as it is told in the Bible.
The complete set of $50 meditations in inexpensive
booklet form is available from the n~on-profit s~criptural
Rosary Center, 6 N. Michigan Ave, Chicago 2, Ill.
The booklet also includes a section telling the
fascinating but little-known story of the development
of the Rosary from its origin in 900 AID. to the pres
ent.

in some other religion. Perhaps some
one has suggested that the written
formula might be dropped. It seems
certain that the implication of the ar
ticle in question is not founded on
fact.
The Church does not consider nom
Catholics as inferior nor as enemies.
The opposition to mixed marriage and
the regulations are intended to pro-
tect both parties, but especially the
Catholic partner and the children.
Many impartial and many non-Catho-
lie authorities consider them a seri-
Gus hindrance to successful and happy
marriage.
Interracial marriages present great
difficulties, as everybody can see. Diff
ference in religion also sets up a basis
conflict of ideals, customs and prac-
tees. The Church is bound to try to
counterfeit the bad effects of this po-
tential conflict.
@. What can a person do who is
interested i'm becoming a lay mission
airy ?
A. One of the great movements of
u time is the interest of the laity in
missionary work. Several movements
have started with the idea of promot-
ing temporary and long range mission
programs for laymen, often including
married couples.
The various possibilities can be

Blessed Peter Julian Eymard-Who
will be %canonized Dec. 9-is known as
the Apostle Of the Blessed Sacrament.
He organized priests, Religious and
lay people to spread his lifelong devo-
ton to the Eucharist.
Blessed Peter was born at La Mure
dIsere in the French Alps Feb. 4,
1911, of middle class parents. His fa-
ther, Julian Eymard, a cutler by trade,
suffered for his faith during the Reign
of Terror in 1894. His mother, Marie
Madeleine Pelorse - his fathers Sec
ond wife-took Peter, when he was
still a baby, to visit the Blessed Sac
rament with her frequently.
Blessed Peter showed a lively devo-
ton to the Blessed Sacrament from
his earliest years. When he was only
four, his ~14-year-old half-sister, Mari
anne, found him in church one day,
standing on a stool behind the taber-
nacle. She asked him what he was do
ing there.
81 AM NEAR JESUS" he replied,
sand listening to Him."
His sister made her first Commun-
ion a year later. He told her then,
"You are so fortunate to receive Com
munion SO often. Please receive once
for me-"
"What should / ask for your"
"Ask that l may be very gentle,
very modest, very pure, and that I
may be a priest n day."
PETER MADE his first Commun-
ion when he was IL. The influence of
the austere Jansenist heresy had end
ed the practice of frequent Commune
ion. But Peter wanted to receive the
sacrament often.
The priests at La Mure would not
allow this. So he went to the shrine of
Notre Dame du Laus, 81 miles away,
and obtained the permission of a mis-
sionary to receive the sacrament every
Sunday.
Young Peter Eymard wanted to
study for the priesthood, but his IA
Their would not consent. He wanted his
son to take over his thriving business.
So Peter Julian saved up his money,
bought a Latin grammar and started
studying on his own.
Peter Julian received his first for
NAL education at a boarding school
in La Mure, where he paid his way by
working for the headmaster during
his free time.
WHEN HE WAS IL he worked for
the chaplain of an institution for sick
and hayward women in Grenoble in
return for Latin lessons. After six
months there, his mother died and he

INQUIRY CORNER

@. One of the persistent problems
for my nOn-CathoIic friends is the use
of the title Father" for priests! An
other is the idea of confessing to a
man rather than to God!
A. When Christ condemns the for
malism of some religious leaders by
saying that we should call no man fa-
Their he was not condemning all relig-
ious authority. The whole New Tesla
ment shows His respect for the real
authority of the Jewish leaders and
His authorization of His Apostles who
were to have delegated authority from
Him Matthew 28:16-20).
st. Paul uses the title of father sew
eral times q Corinthians 4:14-16;
Ephesians 3:14-15; I Th~essalonians
2:11-12). The same principle applies
to confession. 1t is the whole picture
of Gods dealing with man (Old and
New Testament) that He chose to act
through men, from Abraham, Moses
and the Prophets to the Apostles and
disciples.
Not only in the Gospels leg. John
20:19-23) but in the Acts and in the
Epistles this soothing divine help and
guidance is represented as coming to
men through Gods ambassadors. In
conversation on the subject we should
show that such human ministration
is not a burden but a benefit.
We would not consider it better to
have to fit ourselves with eyeglasses
nor to discover and apply u own
medication. We are not meant to
struggle toward heaven on our own!
@. If a priest comes to a PERSONS
house to bring Communion to the sick
and discovers he has one host too
many does he give the extra host
to the sick person? Can an attendant
of the sick person receive?
A. Under ordinary circumstances
the priest would give the siclz person
both hosts in the first case and it would
seem to be possible for an attendant
on a sick person to receive with the
sick person.
Such judgments must be made by
the priest on the occasion in question.
1t would be possible for the priest to
return the extra host Tin fact that is
the procedure in a public Communion
CALI to the Church and bless the peo-
pie with the pyx before reposing the
Blessed Sacrament.
1t would not be the ordinary thing
for anyone besides the sick person to
receive Holy Communion in the home
but it would be possible.
@. LIN a recent magazine article
about the Council it is stated that
there might be changes in the rules
for mixed marriages, e.g. in regard to
the children being raised Catholic. Is
this possible?
A. Newspaper and magazine arti-
Giles are guessing. 1t may be that there
will be changes in regulations regard
ing mixed marriage (e.g. as in the
matter of marriage in church, which
is now permitted in most dioceses-
outside of Mass time, of course).
1t would seem a denial of Catholic
Faith for a Cats-lic partner in a mix
ed marriage to sign an agreement per-
hitting the children to be brought up
