Holy Rosary Church (Toronto)
Holy Rosary Church is a Roman Catholic church in Forest Hill, Toronto, Ontario. History In 1882, Basilian Fr. Lawrence Brennan, parish priest of St. Basil's Church, purchased 50-acres of what was then remote farmland on St. Clair Avenue West. The land was intended to be a farm for St. Michael's College and Fr. Brennan constructed a novitiate to train priests. On May 8, 1892, the cornerstone was laid for the novitiate and a chapel to serve as a parish church for the Irish population in the area. The parish was established in 1909. The parish grew rapidly and in 1924 Fr. Michael Oliver was appointed priest and instructed to oversee the construction of a new church. Archbishop Neil McNeil laid the cornerstone for the new church on May 30, 1926. Fr. Oliver admired English Gothic churches and modeled the new Holy Rosary Church after St. Mary's Church in St. Neots, Huntingdonshire. The church was designed by prominent Toronto-based Catholic architect Arthur William Holmes. Construc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The novitiate, also called the noviciate, is the period of training and preparation that a Christian ''novice'' (or ''prospective'') monastic, apostolic, or member of a religious order undergoes prior to taking vows in order to discern whether they are called to vowed religious life. It often includes times of intense study, prayer, living in community, studying the vowed life, deepening one's relationship with God, and deepening one's self-awareness. The canonical time of the novitiate is one year; in case of additional length, it must not be extended over two years.CIC, canon 648 In the Eastern Orthodox Church, the novitiate is officially set at three years before one may be tonsured a monk or nun, though this requirement may be waived. The novitiate is in any case a time both for the novice to get to know the community and the community to get to know the novice. The novice should aspire to deepening their relationship to God and discovering the community's charism. The novit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
