Very Rev. Andriy Rabiy (MDiv ’02) was
ordained Auxiliary Bishop for the Ukrainian
Archeparchy of Philadelphia and titular
bishop of Germaniciana. At 41, Bishop Rabiy
is the youngest Catholic bishop of the
United States, and one of the youngest in the
world. The episcopal ordination took place
on September 3 in St. George Ukrainian
Catholic Cathedral, in Bishop Rabiy’s
hometown of Lviv.
Dr. Dawn Eden Goldstein (MA ’10, STB ’13,
STL ’14) has joined the faculty at Holy Apostles
College & Seminary as an Assistant Professor
of Dogmatic Theology.
Fr. Thaddaeus Lancton, M.I.C. (MDiv,
STB ’16), has released his first book, Stepping
on the Serpent: The Journey of Trust
with Mary. Fr. Lancton describes this journey
of trust as the “project of his life,” saying,
“Trust is that door which allows the Lord to
enter into our hearts in the most difficult
moments, in the most critical moments, and
the most important moments. He enters
into our hearts and transforms us.”
Cardinal Donald Wuerl has named Dr. Jem
Sullivan (faculty) as Secretary for Catholic
Education for the Archdiocese of Washington.
She will assist the teaching ministry of the
archbishop through oversight and leadership
of all educational efforts of the archdiocese.
The Light of Christ: An Introduction to
Catholicism, the newest book by Fr. Thomas
Joseph White, O.P. (STL ’08, faculty), has
been released by The Catholic University of
America Press. Fr. White says of his book, “My
goal is to make explicit in a few broad strokes
the shape of Catholicism. I hope to outline its
inherent intelligibility, or form, as a mystery
that is at once visible and invisible, ancient
and contemporary, mystical and reasonable.”
