Aquino’lu Thomas’a göre Efkaristiya
Efkaristiya’nın gizemi konusunda düzenlediğimiz konferans dizisinin üçüncü randevusunda, Rahip Luca Refatti, Ortaçağ teologu Aquinolu Thomas’ın düşüncelerini sunacak. Thomas figürünü kısaca tanıttıktan sonra, Luca Refatti, Efkaristiya gizemini diğer sakramentlerle karşılaştıracak ve transubstantiatio (tözün değişmesi) kavramını analiz edecek. Son olarak Aziz Thomas’ın Efkaristiya ile ilgili olarak yaptığı iki önemli ayrım olan sakramental komünyon ile ruhani komünyon arasındaki ayrım ve sakrament ile kurban arasındaki ayrım incelenecektir.
Luca Refatti 2011’den beri Dominiken rahibi ve 7 yıldır İstanbul’da yaşıyor.
Konferans Türkçe, ücretsiz ve herkese açık olacaktır.

1st Conference
Sen Piyer Church, Galata Tower sk. 26, Beyoglu
December 12, 7 p.m.
Eucharist according to Thomas of Aquino
In the third appointment of our series of lectures on the mystery of the Eucharist, Fr. Luca Refatti will present the thought of the medieval theologian Thomas of Aquino. After briefly introducing the figure of Thomas, Luca Refatti will compare the Eucharistic mystery with other sacraments and analyze the concept of transubstantiatio (change of essence). Finally, two important distinctions that St. Thomas makes in relation to the Eucharist will be examined: the distinction between sacramental communion and spiritual communion, and the distinction between sacrament and sacrifice.
Luca Refatti has been a Dominican priest since 2011 and has been living in Istanbul for 7 years.
The conference will be in Turkish, free of charge and open to all.

In his lecture, the Bishop of Constantinople explained the teaching of the Eucharist in the Gospel of John, focusing on its sixth chapter.

IAOP Colloquium - Flyers to be shared

[English] Dear Brothers,
I am pleased to share with you the four versions of the flyer prepared for dissemination. While they all carry the same message, the variations in colour are meant to offer you the freedom to choose the one—or those—that best appeal to you or suit your context.
I would like to sincerely thank all those who have contributed their insights and suggestions during the process—especially Fr. Anthony Akinwale, Fr. Roger Gaise, Fr. Dokun, Fr. Patrick Sikossi, Fr. Stan Ushe, and Fr. Liboire Kagabo. Your input has been most valuable.
On behalf of our brothers entrusted with the design and finalization of the flyers, I also wish to express our apologies for the delay that led to the adjustment of the original submission schedule.
Let us continue in the same spirit of collaboration, each contributing according to the strengths and responsibilities we bear in organizing this colloquium. The more we build this together with mutual trust and coordination, the more our efforts will reflect the seriousness and unity of our commitment. And with God’s grace, it may well be a resounding success.
Fraternally,
Bro. Georges Alahou.

[French] Chers Frères,
Je me permets de vous transmettre ces quatre versions du flyer, destinées à être diffusées. Elles contiennent toutes le même message, mais avec des variantes de couleurs, afin de vous laisser la liberté de choisir celle ou celles qui vous plaisent le plus ou qui conviennent le mieux à votre contexte.
Je tiens à remercier sincèrement tous ceux qui ont apporté leurs contributions et suggestions au cours de ce processus, en particulier le P. Anthony Akinwale, le P. Roger Gaise, le P. Dokun, le P. Patrick Sikossi, le P. Stan Ushe et le P. Liboire Kagabo. Vos apports ont été très précieux.
Au nom des frères chargés de la conception et de la finalisation des flyers, je vous présente également nos excuses pour le retard qui a conduit au réajustement de la date de soumission initiale.
Poursuivons dans cet esprit de collaboration, chacun apportant ce qu’il peut selon ses compétences et les responsabilités confiées dans l’organisation de ce colloque. Plus nous construisons cela ensemble dans la confiance et la coordination, plus notre engagement commun témoignera du sérieux de notre travail. Et, par la grâce de Dieu, ce colloque pourra être un véritable succès.
Fraternellement,
Fr. Georges Alahou.

A Summer Seminar on Albert the Great’s De anima
2026-07-06 08:00 - 2026-07-10 17:00
6-10 July 2026.
This summer school explores Albert’s De anima as a key source of his philosophical anthropology. For Albert, learning about the soul is inseparable from learning how human beings come to know the world— and how this gradual formation of intellect gives shape to a fully realized human life.
