Saint Meinrad Report of Stewardship 2015



A me for every ma er under

HEAVEN —Ecclesiastes 3:1


Archabbot’s

WELCOME

Back in 2013, Pope Francis announced that this year would be the Year of Consecrated Life – a time dedicated to recognizing the place of religious life in the Church. In his apostolic letter, he said the Year of Consecrated Life would be one in which (1) we would look to the past with gratitude, (2) live the present with passion, and (3) embrace the future with hope. In this Annual Report of Stewardship, we are focusing a bit on the past – this past year, at least. We’re sharing with you some images that illustrate, in a few pages, the many blessings that we have enjoyed these past 12 months.

Archabbot Justin DuVall, OSB

While each year contains a unique mixture of happy memories and challenging times, this retrospective of the past year includes many routine events that mark our everyday lives as monks and Christians. We experienced joy and hope as we welcomed five novices in January. We mourned the loss of two elder monks, Fr. Cyprian and Fr. Aelred, this past spring. We enjoyed the energy of having several hundred high school youth on our campus for the “One Bread, One Cup” conferences this summer. We celebrated the jubilees of three of our confreres and the priesthood ordination of one of our monks, Fr. Luke. Add to that another year of formation and education in our Seminary and School of Theology, a full schedule of retreats and visits by many guests. It made for a busy, fruitful year. The mix of special and ordinary events that make up our lives – and yours as well – should remind us to keep our focus on God’s hand at work in our lives. Pope Francis placed gratitude at the start and the heart of the three aims for this Year of Consecrated Life: “to look to the past with gratitude.” For a good religious – and a good Christian – gratitude needs to be a daily habit. All of us should be reminded to look to the past with gratitude for what God has done for each of us in his mercy and his providence. We are particularly grateful for the support we have received from so many friends who share the values by which we live our lives of prayer and work. May you continue to be mindful of God’s blessings in your own lives.

Rt. Rev. Justin DuVall, OSB Archabbot

MESSAGE

Saint Meinrad is a place that is always changing. This year we began some repairs and updates to the monastery, and so the monastic community has made a (temporary) return to its old stomping ground, St. Anselm Hall. As a result, the school community is spread out over the whole hill – at least until the end of next summer. It has been a good year for us. Our seminary graduating class has now moved on to ordination as priests and are serving in about one dozen dioceses and religious communities around the world. Our seminary community is a vibrant one, representing dozens of cultural backgrounds as well as languages.

Very Reverend Denis Robinson, OSB

Our permanent deacon program continues to thrive as well. Many of our deacon candidates made their way from across the country to be with us this past summer for homiletics workshops, the only portion of our deacon program done here at Saint Meinrad. We also had ordinations in a number of dioceses, including our first cohort in the Archdiocese of Nassau, Bahamas. In our newly named Graduate Theology Programs (formerly Lay Degree Programs, which didn’t accurately identify its many offerings), we are continuing to work creatively with lay people, religious and deacons around the country in gaining the necessary degree and personal formation to become effective ministers. This summer, we also hosted, as usual, “One Bread, One Cup,” our youth liturgical leadership conferences for nearly 300 high school youth. There was energy to spare as these young Catholic men and women had experiences that will make a difference in their parishes, but perhaps more significantly, in their lives and the lives of their families as they remain close to the Church in this crucial time of transition in their worlds. For the Institute for Priests and Presbyterates, some new programming is being planned for the Institute’s important work of connecting with priests around the world as they engage their vital ministry for the life of the Church. Saint Meinrad is a place where important things happen in the New Evangelization. Our task of educating and preparing priests, lay persons, deacons and young people for the life of dioceses and parishes is essential to the Holy Father’s injunction that we spread the Good News to every place and to all people. Thank you for continuing to support us in this vital work.

Very Rev. Denis Robinson, OSB President­Rector


At Saint Meinrad Archabbey, we’re blessed with beauty every season of the year. The stately sandstone buildings and peaceful grounds provide an opportunity to appreciate something of splendor every day of the year. In this annual report, we offer a snapshot of life during the past 12 months. Fall is a sensory season. You can see the brilliant colors of the trees and smell the wood smoke from a campfire or fireplace. You can watch the fog lift off a lake and hear the crunch of dried leaves underfoot.

The On The Hill 5K, held in September, gives monks, students and co­workers a chance to walk or run on the Saint Meinrad campus. Here, Br. Peduru Fonseka, OSB, heads to the finish line.


AUTUMN

A time to seek, and a time to lose

Autumn activities are aplenty, as students return to classes in September. Clockwise, from top left: Seminarians cheer for their soccer team during the annual seminary tourney. Fr. Brendan Moss, OSB, listens to a talk during a pilgrimage to Monte Cassino Shrine. Seminarians Will Banowsky and Edwin Nalagan prepare a dish for the Around the World party. Fall brings vibrant color to trees on campus. Braden Maher hauls cut firewood that will be delivered to local families in need. Fr. Donald Senior, CP, of Catholic Theological Union, speaks on preaching at the annual Marten Lecture on October 7. Kien Nguyen demonstrates a musical instrument during an international student outing.


WINTER

A me to weep, and a me to laugh

The annual St. Nicholas Banquet, hosted by the deacon class of seminarians, is a Christmas tradition attended by students, faculty, staff and family members. Here, (now Father) Michael Cronin acts in a scene loosely based on the classic movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” (Now Father) Adam Ahern is at left in the background.


Among the winter events on the Hill are, beginning at the top, left column: The monks celebrate Mass for the feast of the Immaculate Conception on December 8. January Interterm courses for students feature a variety of topics, such as Gregorian chant led by Sister Bernardone Rock, FSE, and food preparation led by Fr. Julian Peters, OSB. Right photos, from the top: Benedictine oblates attend an Advent retreat at the Guest House. International priests serving in the U.S. participate in a World Priests workshop hosted by the Institute for Priests and Presbyterates in January. Novice monks enjoy a snowy day in February with some sledding fun.


SPRING

A me to tear, and a me to sew

As the months turn toward spring, the celebrations and ordinations take center stage. In April, seven seminarians were ordained as deacons – the final step toward priesthood. Above, Joe Lee sings in the student schola during the ordination liturgy. Top right, the community presents a Lenten program, “Song of Shadows,” on March 21. Lower right: Indianapolis Archbishop Joseph Tobin ordains Meril Sahayam as a deacon in the Archabbey Church. Photo, right page: Br. William Sprauer, OSB, played on the “Bad Habits” monastic team that competed in the seminary softball tourney on May 2.



Spring brings us outdoors again, with ball games and cookouts. But it was also a time of sorrow at the death of two longtime monks, Fr. Aelred Cody, OSB, and Fr. Cyprian Davis, OSB. Top photo, this page: Graduates celebrate following commencement on May 9, when 61 graduates received master’s degrees. Bottom photo: The Saint Meinrad Day of Service took place in five locations on March 14. Here, Steve Taylor applies tape before painting a classroom at St. Anthony’s Parish in Indianapolis.

Lower left photo: Archabbot Justin DuVall, OSB, incenses the casket of Fr. Cyprian Davis, OSB, at his funeral on May 20.


SUMMER

A me to mourn, and a me to dance The photos on these pages offer a glimpse of life at Saint Meinrad. They depict some of the many moments of prayer, work and community that take place each day, all year long. The days are busy and prayerful. There are quiet moments and raucous ones. There are times of joy and sorrow, times of confusion and chaos, times of hope and confidence. Saint Meinrad is a vibrant place, welcoming many people to study, pray and visit here. Yet its foundation is built on the time­tested tradition of Benedictine life – a life that finds God in the ordinary moments of each day. Large photo, at right: Novices John Avery and Charles Peñalosa wait, with their vow charts in hand, to take their first profession of vows on August 6. Following tradition, they now have new religious names, Br. Stephen and Br. Lorenzo. Hundreds of youth come to campus each summer for the popular “One Bread, One Cup” youth liturgical leadership conferences. Lower middle photo: Colleen Brouillette prays in the St. Thomas Aquinas Chapel. Lower right, next page: Fr. Denis Robinson, OSB, addresses alumni at the annual Alumni Reunion. More than 180 attended.

Renova on will update

INFIRMARY When the monks moved into their brand­ new monastery in 1982, a set of rooms on the ground floor was set aside as an infirmary. There, sick and elderly monks could be cared for by other monks and an occasional staff person. In the 33 years since, health care advances have been numerous. Today, a score or more of health professionals handle health care needs in the infirmary, as well as at Saint Meinrad’s health service clinic. As health care demands increased, the original infirmary wing was retrofitted to provide better care for the monks. But some things still limit the care and dignity the health staff can offer the wing’s residents. The hallway is too narrow to move a hospital bed into and out of rooms. Instead, the bed must be taken apart, moved and then reassembled. The infirmary rooms’ bathrooms and showers cannot accommodate a wheelchair. In addition, the nurses station is tucked away in an unused room. Those shortcomings will be corrected with the renovation that began in May 2015. Each of the 14 rooms will be enlarged to provide room for wheelchairs to maneuver. Doorways will be widened and the bathrooms will be accessible for wheelchairs. The hallway will be widened, too, to make movement within the infirmary easier. And four more infirmary rooms will be added, for a total of 18. Overall, the size of the infirmary will increase from 5,200 to 9,600 square feet. A new nurses station will be centrally located in the infirmary. Other features include a new chapel for daily Mass and a dining room/kitchen area so the infirm monks can enjoy meals together. The infirmary renovation is expected to cost $1.6 million and be completed in August 2016. We are seeking gifts from alumni and friends to help fund the infirmary renovation. You can make a gift by going online to: donate.saintmeinrad.edu. Or mail your gift (note “infirmary” on the check) to Saint Meinrad Archabbey, Development Office, 200 Hill Drive, St. Meinrad, IN 47577.

“Care of the sick must rank above and before all else, so that they may truly be served as Christ.” —Rule of St. Benedict 36:1


Saint Meinrad

STEWARDSHIP Gifts to Saint Meinrad are typically directed toward three basic uses: unrestricted gifts, providing support for current and ongoing programs; capital gifts, for building, renovating and equipping our physical facilities; and endowment gifts, for sustaining our programs and facilities.

received to renovate St. Bede Hall. Currently, we are seeking capital support from our friends, alumni and oblates to help fund the renovation of the monastic infirmary (see page 16). Capital gifts help make possible the ongoing development of our campus. Endowment Funds

Costs for Students in the Seminary and School of Theology The tuition Saint Meinrad charges each student does not cover the full cost of a student’s education. These charges cover approximately 49 percent of the costs involved in their education. Annual unrestricted gifts help make up the difference between the school’s actual expenses and student charges. This enables us to keep our tuition rates competitive with other seminaries. Capital Gifts These gifts enable Saint Meinrad to build, renovate and equip our physical facilities. This past year, most of the capital gifts were

The financial security of our Seminary and School of Theology and monastery is built on the foundation of a strong endowment. As of June 30, 2015, Saint Meinrad’s endowment totaled $63.4 million; $36.4 million is earmarked for the school. In a very real way, the monks of Saint Meinrad Archabbey form a living endowment. In 2014­15, the contributed services of the monks who work in the school totaled $353,379. In addition, the Archabbey, through the work of Abbey Press and Abbey Caskets, helps underwrite expenses of both the monastery and the Seminary and School of Theology.
