Excerpt: Johannes Gerardus Maria Willebrands (September 4, 1909 August 2, 2006) was a Dutch Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church. He served as President of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity from 1969 to 1989, and Archbishop of Utrecht from 1975 to 1983. Elevated to the cardinalate in 1969, Willebrands was central to the increased ecumenism of the Church in the second half of the 20th century, and was considered papabile at the two conclaves held in 1978. Johannes Willebrands was born in Bovenkarspel, as the eldest of the nine children of Herman and Afra (nee Kok) Willebrands. His father worked as a paymaster at the local vegetable market, and one of his brothers went on to become a Redemptorist missionary in Surinam. Willebrands studied at the seminary at Warmond near Leiden, where he was ordained to the priesthood on May 26, 1934. He studied for a doctorate in philosophy at the Pontifical Athenaeum Angelicum in Rome, writing his thesis on John Henry Newman. Willebrands returned to the Netherlands in 1937 and acted as chaplain of the Church of Begijnhof in Amsterdam. In 1940 he began teaching philosophy at his alma mater of the Warmond seminary. Five years later, he became the seminary's rector. Willebrands demonstrated a very active interest in the cause of Christian unity as president of the St Willibrord Association, which promoted ecumenism in the Netherlands; in 1951, he organized the Catholic Conference on Ecumenical Questions, which was in contact with the World Council of Churches. He was named Titular Bishop of Mauriana on June 4, 1964. Wil...More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=168368We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
