They aim to “We mail approximately 250 rosaries each week. They are sent to different organizations, which request them for missions in the United States and all over the world” (Church of Saint Catherine). This representing the care and support they are willing to provide for their community and organizations. They take similar action with the organization I am volunteering by giving rosaries to other organizations.

...Running head: SPIRITUAL ASSESSMENT EVALUATION Spiritual Assessment Evaluation Steven Atilano Grand Canyon University August 18, 2012 Spiritual Assessment Evaluation Spirituality has been part of nursing from its’ infancy. Initially, nursing care of the sick, was provided by monks as part of a religious order. Florence Nightingale who is credited with revolutionizing modern nursing was said to have chose the profession, because God called her to serve (Nursing-Theory.org, n.d.). Nightingale was the first to revolutionize this thought process, as she realized that healing was holistic, and even involved the patient’s environment. As a result, our profession now recognizes the need to treat the patient holistically, to include the patient’s spirituality. Two examples of assessment tools that assess spirituality are the HOPE assessment tool and the FICA spiritual assessment tool. The HOPE assessment tool uses the acronym to remember all elements of the assessment. H stands for hope, O stands for the patient’s organized religion. P stands for personal spirituality, and E stands for end of life decisions (LaRocca-Pitts, 2009). The FICA spiritual tool acronym stands for Faith or belief, Importance of the patient’s spirituality, their individual spiritual community, and Addressing spirituality (Borneman, Ferrell, & Puchalski, 2010). The author believes that patient spirituality should be assessed immediately in order to ensure holistic care, so a new spiritual...

...The authors purpose of writing the book The Dead and the Gone was to show that as long as you have faith, God will help you make good decisions. This is true because every day they would pray for various things and keeping their faith alive. To show this every night Bri would sleep with her rosary so her religion was close to her. Also Alex, as well has his sisters, Bri and Julie, would pray every time they needed strength or wanted guidance of just praying for the safety of someone. Adding to the first example when Alex is very sick and prays for strength so he can find Bri. The main character, Alex, was still getting over having the flu and Bri was missing so he had to go and find her. He prayed so he could have the strength...

...tons of people around the world who live according to God. An amazing 16% of the world's population is catholic and around 50% of the worlds Christians are Catholic. Well over 40 countries have the most Catholics in their country than any other religion. All of this just goes to show how many Catholics are around the world and their influence on this planet. St. Martin de Porres was a Catholic who lived in the late 1500's and early 1600's. He was a saint who devoted his life to his faith despite all the obstacles in his way. It wouldn't matter what ethnicity someone was, for he would take care of anyone who came to him. For that redeeming quality I believe he is a man who truly lived the way Christ would want us to live....

...What are the differences between the four paths of yoga? And relate the four paths to other philosophical or religious traditions? The four paths of yoga are jnana yoga, karma yoga, bhakti yoga, and raja yoga. Even though the four parts of yoga come from Hindu philosophies each has its own way that can make people live spiritually and comfortably by choosing a certain path that an individual is comfortable with. Everyday people will use techniques that were born with yoga and not even know they are using a basic form of yoga. Each type of yoga is different from one another in a lot of different ways. Jnana yoga is learning from others. Karma yoga believes doing work unselfishly will lead to good deeds happening for one. Bhakti yoga is expressing yourself. Raja yoga is the art of meditation. Jnana yoga or knowledge yoga is based on learning from teachers who have a lot of knowledge with jnana yoga. As such priests and intellectuals will prefer this type of yoga so they can learn and then teach it themselves. Reading the bible is also considered jnana yoga since you will gain knowledge by doing this. This type of yoga was refined by a school of philosophy that is still being done today the school of Vedanta. The Vedanta school uses the ideas of the Upanishads as its primary inspiration. Upanishads is defined as which come at the end of the Vedas. All other forms of yoga do not incorporate learning or teaching in they way they express themselves. Jnana yoga can relate to numerous...

But to be frank, I recognize and know a few words of the Tagalog language, which is my family’s native tongue. I did not learn how to speak and fully understand this language due to the fact that everyone in the household, including my parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles, can speak and understand English. When they interact with me, they speak to me only in English. Furthermore, I identify myself as female, and my sexual orientation is heterosexual.

From 1971 Financial Report: Once upon a time there was a man who had nothing and God gave him ten apples - three apples to eat, three to trade for shelter from the elements and three to trade for clothing. The tenth apple God gave him that he might have something to give back to God to show his gratitude for the other nine. The man ate three apples; he traded three for shelter and three more for clothing. He then looked at the tenth apple..... and it seemed bigger and juicier than all the others. He knew that God had given him the tenth apple so that he might return it to Him out of thanksgiving and gratitude. But that tenth apple - the more he looked at it - became bigger and juicier and juicier. And reseaoned that God had all the other apples inthe world....so the man ate the tenth apple......and gave back to God......the core. What are you returning to God? His apple?... or the core? ...

...RAMIREZ, RJ RUIZ, Bianca TEH, Mia SA 21 – D It is apparent that Filipinos take their religion very seriously. Many Filipinos are willing to endure large amounts of pain just to profess their faith. Some choose the easier route in trying to express their belief by simply visiting a church and spending a few minutes in prayer. Our recent visit to Quiapo Church exposed us to both these forms of worship. When we arrived in Quiapo during our visit there a few days ago, we took a few minutes to survey our surroundings. The first thing we noticed is the large amount of people in the area. There were many people not only inside the church but around its surroundings as well. After this short moment of observation, we then decided to enter the church. This was the first time to enter Quiapo Church for all three of us and it’s unlike any church we have visited so far in the Philippines. The sheer size of the church’s interior dwarfs most of the churches we go to every Sunday. Even with its size, Quiapo Church is jam packed with numerous devotees. Most of the pews are filled with people and it is difficult to find an empty spot to sit down in. The first thing we noticed once we entered the church was the people who were walking on their knees towards the altar. These devotees would kneel down at the church’s entrance and then they would slowly go towards the altar on their knees. Given the size of the church, this painstaking ritual would take a while to complete. We saw...

...Christ presence in the mass, and whether God saves Christians by their faith alone. Catholics say that having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is what it means to be a Christian and Catholic as well.. Catholic philosophy is about having wisdom and pursuit of what is the real truth is. They believe that the historic Christian Doctrine is of the holy trinity. Which also states that God is three in one and one in three. He is the father, the sun and the Holy Spirit. When you are in the Catholic Church you are to kneel at the pews before you entire and when you leave to kneel and do the sign of the cross, and that is the way someone says hello and goodbye to God. (Barbara, 2015) Catholics have some differences when it comes to exactly how the authority of the bible compares to the authority of other sources such as the pope. Take Baptist for instance they both believe they can trust the bible and that it speaks truthfully when it records prophecy, history, and doctrine. Catholics have some similar views on moral issues, such as the value of the Ten Commandments and the marriage of a man and a women. When it comes down to the Lords supper things seem to be a little different when you compare it to Baptist the breaking of the bread and wine seem to be the same. When you break bread and drink wine, and when this is done, it is considered following the actions before Jesus die on the cross. (Koenig, D. (2016) Furthermore, when you are an ordained leader you must go through special...

...religious supermarket with too many religious practices. For me who is also born and raised as a Catholic but I was not trained of too much religious beliefs only that teaching me to pray before and after we eat and every time that I am going to sleep and to go to mass every Sunday. But at a young age I am already exposed to different types of religion since I live in a very big community and my elementary alma matter, which is a Catholic school already emphasize to us that yes indeed there are a lot of religions but there is only one God. The only thing that we differ in is that the way how we praise God. 2. In today’s “religious supermarket,” what religious ideas, practices, groups, books have you found attractive or interesting? Why did you find them attractive or interesting? I was not given a chance to go to a religious supermarket yet, but as far as I can describe what a religious supermarket is the best example to be given is Quiapo. Quiapo is a district and city square of Manila. Referred as the "Old Downtown", Quiapo in known for where cheap buys or goods are being sold at rock-bottom prices and was the home of the Quiapo Church. As for Baguio City in my stay here I never encountered a religious supermarket except for the bookstore near Cathedral where religious books and religious items like rosary are sold. As for religious beliefs and practices, I find it interesting to some religions that whenever they are going to go to mass there is a certain dress code that needs...

...Christmas Day and Easter morning. No, we sit, stand, and kneel every Sunday, and we’ve done so since before I was potty-trained. From the day my parents stopped keeping me quiet with cheerios and coloring books, I’ve been asking why we couldn’t skip just one week of mass. My mother tells me, “We have to thank God for all He’s given us.” On vacation in the Cayman Islands, we attend the Baptist church to thank God for a week of scuba diving. Before dinner each night, we hold hands and pray. Thank you, God, for our lovely family, our health, our happiness, and the lasagna on my plate-which I cannot wait to eat. Sometimes I reflect on how truly thankful we are, other times I just dig into the lasagna. I’ve always believed in God, but never expected to be as pious as my grandmother, who shakes the priest’s hand more vigorously than a five-year-old being introduced to Mickey Mouse. If I touch my head or sneak a piece of gum during the sermon, my grandmother mutters that I may as well be an atheist. She prays to St. Anthony for me, and when I ask why she’s praying to the patron saint of lost items and travelers, because all I did was tie my shoe, she tells me to stop being wise. Although my mother thinks this is just a phase, I have begun to have my doubts. I have some trouble believing Jesus turned ten fish into meals for thousands, and doubt anyone could even stand on water without a surfboard and some killer abs. My mother and father wanted to visit Italy. My grandmother wants to...

...competence during delivery of care requires sensitivity to the cultural, social, and linguistic needs of patients (Betancourt, Green, Carrillo, 2002). As a consequence, care providers need cultural assessment tools that will enable them to elicit sensitive racial and ethnic information. The Heritage Assessment Tool provides care givers with such a tool. This paper examines the application of this tool on three different cultures and discusses its usefulness in planning for the maintenance, protection, and restoration of the health of diverse cultures. Three families of Mexican American, European American, and African American heritages were assessed using the Heritage Assessment Tool. The tool consists of 29 questions that determine how deeply an individual identifies with a certain tradition and answers to the questions provide cues on patients’ health traditions. The tool is based on the understanding that all patients are unique cultural beings, with personal health traditions and affected by cultural phenomena (Spector, 2013). The tool reveals an individual’s traditional health and illness beliefs and practices, and is important in deciding the suitable community care resources (p. 376-378). After performing a heritage assessment on the Mexican American, European American, and African American families, common health traditions based on cultural were...

...especially those who are hungry and extremely affected by the war between Christians and Moors. Throughout his inspiring experiences and trials, there are lessons that give us enlightenment and a much wider perspective on how to be a good servant not only to others but also to God. First of these lessons is love. Dominic shows that everybody must show love and compassion to others. St. Dominic shows that aside from loving yourself, you should also love others. St. Dominic shows his love not only to his family and friends, but also to the strangers especially to those who can’t afford to buy food. Second, St. Dominic’s humbleness. He is very humble that even if he did a very small or simple mistake, he asks forgiveness to the person that he made mistake to. Even if he becomes a priest on the latter part of the film, he keeps his feet on the ground, showing that he is not unique to everyone and still a humble servant to his church and to good Lord himself. Third, St. Dominic thought us is his selflessness. He doesn’t care anymore to himself, and help all the people who need to be fed and preach to give them enlightenment. He shows that man should help one another especially in the times that we need to help and comfort each other. He even gave his rosary, which is given by his uncle, to a boy when he is travelling with other preachers and priests. And the root of his selflessness can be found in one verse in the book of Matthew, stating...

...Dearest sister, I’m not sorry I didn’t go to your funeral. I never planned to attend. I’m not sorry I went to church and didn’t pray to God to comfort your soul that would travel to heaven. There was no need to since I knew that you were going in the opposite direction. No amount of salvation could save your rotten soul. You had a bright white smile and a pretty face, but you also had a black heart. Dearest sister, do you know how I really felt about you? Do you know why I cried tears of happiness when the police found you dead? It was too good to be true. I didn’t go through the stages of grief, but instead I went straight to acceptance. There were moments where I thought you would resurrect from the dead after three days. You were no savior to me. Never in my life did I witness a shining halo around your pretty head. I only saw rusty horns and a deadly pitchfork gripped by your hand. Our lives were as different as the sun and the moon. The only similarity we had was the blood flowing through our veins. When we were younger, adults would always dote on you. They would praise you for how cute you looked and how well behaved you were. Adults only acknowledged me for a few...
