Celem opracowania jest ocena tematycznego programowania niedzielnych homilii przez księży z Parafii świętego Benedykta w Halifaksie (Kanada) – współautorów podręcznika kaznodziejskiego opublikowanego w 2022 roku. Autor artykułu odpowiada na pytanie, w jakim stopniu ich koncepcja homiletyczna jest zgodna z Magisterium Kościoła i w czym może być pomocna dla homilistów. W pierwszej części studium posoborowe warunki głoszenia homilii tematycznych są ujęte w pięć punktów. Następnie przedstawiona jest teoria programowania przepowiadania opisana w kanadyjskim podręczniku oraz zgodna z nią seria siedmiu tematycznych homilii. Na koniec ma miejsce analiza serii w odniesieniu do pięciu warunków przywołanych wcześniej. Wnioski pokazują, że homilie tematyczne z Halifaksu stoją w sprzeczności z liturgiczną naturą homilii przez brak treści mistagogicznych, korzystanie z multimedialnych slajdów i wezwania moralne bez katechezy pogłębiającej orędzie. Z drugiej strony, sugestie dotyczące programowania homilii pozostają przydatne dla jej szafarzy ze względu na prawidłowy przekaz kerygmatu, oryginalną aktualizację antropologiczną, metodyczne planowanie serii i współpracę z osobami świeckimi.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the thematic programming of the preaching handbook, “Preaching on Purpose: A Divine Renovation Handbook for Communicating the Gospel Today” (2022), co-written by priests from Saint Benedict Parish, Halifax (Canada). I assess the consonance of the homiletic concept employed in the handbook with the Church’s Magisterium on homiletics and how it could be of help to homily programming. The first part presents the Church’s post-conciliar reflections on thematic homilies in five points. Then, the theory of homily programming, as described in the handbook, and a sample preaching series are discussed. Finally, the series is discussed in relation to the Church’s vision of the homily. The conclusions reveal that while the Halifax thematic homilies interfere with liturgy due to the lack of mystagogy, excessive and elaborate slideshows, and moral calls without catechesis, homily programming suggestions remain useful for homilists because the preachers correctly deliver the kerygma and existential actualization, plan series methodically, and co-operate with the lay faithful.

Introduction and aim. Computed tomography (CT) is the first imaging modality in the evaluation of children in case of patients with head injury in pediatric Emergency Departments (EDs). Radiological CT reports include not only lesions that are the main cause of the child’s complaints but also incidental findings. The objective of this study is to assess incidental findings observed in children who were admitted to the ED and had the head CT performed. Material and methods. This retrospective, cross-sectional study enrolled 644 children under the age of 18, from 1st January 2021 to 31st June 2021. Each child could have had one or more incidental findings in CT. Results. Among all CT studies, incidental findings were found in 279 out of 644 (43.32%) cases, of which 73 (11.34%) had both lesions detected incidentally and related to the trauma. Conclusion. Head CT is an incredibly useful tool in the assessment of some head emergencies. However, evaluation of the prevalence of incidental findings is difficult. Most of them require no specific further investigation. Pediatricians, who order CTs in children, must be prepared to interpret and communicate findings to families and introduce treatment in necessary situations.
