Charles John Brown Biography

Charles John Brown is one of the most popular and richest Diplomat who was born on October 13, 1959 in New York City, United States. Brown was born on the 13th of October, 1959. He was born in East Village, Manhattan, in New York City, when it was an Jewish neighborhood. Brown later stated that the Brown group of relatives “were pretty much the only Gentile family in the apartment block” when he grew as a child. He is the most senior among six siblings. At the age of five the family moved to Ridgewood, a suburb located north from New York City. When the boy was 11 years old, they relocated again into Windham, New York, in the Catskill Mountains.

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has been involved in cases of abuse by children since 1994 at the time it was led by the Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, who as Pope Benedict XVI appointed him as the nuncio.

Archbishop Brown described the rebirth as the spring after 20 years of winter, saying he saw “green shoots.” “You see a renewed enthusiasm among young Catholics in Ireland now,” said Archbishop Brown, who was appointed as papal ambassador in November 2011, at the cusp of the church’s troubles stemming from a long-standing period of unreported clergy sexual abuse. The new generation of Catholics, some of whom are studying for the priesthood at St. Patrick’s College, the national seminary in Maynooth, or the Pontifical Irish College in Rome, will “lead the church forward into the next decade,” he said. Young Catholics represent what is best in the tradition of Vatican II, “the idea of communicating the ancient unchanging faith in a new, vibrant and attractive way,” he said.

Brown was named Titular Archbishop of Aquileia and nuncio to Ireland on 26 November 2011 and was consecrated by Pope Benedict XVI on 6 January 2012. After his consecration Archbishop Brown said “The entire experience was one of great joy and consolation for me. I was certainly aware of my unworthiness for the episcopate and my limitations, but especially when the pope laid his hands on my head, I had a tremendous sense of the strength of the Holy Spirit and the presence of the saints”. The experience, he said, “gives me total confidence that I can do something beautiful for God”.

He was ordained as a priest of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York by Cardinal John Joseph O’Connor on 13 May 1989 at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, New York. From 1989 until 1991, he was the assistant pastor at St. Brendan’s Parish in the Bronx, New York City. When he was in 1991 Brown had to go to Rome due to the fact that Cardinal O’Connor required him to pursue studies for an advanced doctorate in sacramental theology and later become a professor of theology in Dunwoodie Seminary. In the end, a position was created within the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in which they required an English language expert.

Brown said he has an excellent relationship with Pope Benedict Brown, stating: “I know him, he knows me. I worked with him closely for 10 years, I travelled with him, I worked hard for him. He trusts me, for better or for worse”. Brown added: “I have not seen anything yet. I have a steep mountain to climb and I hope to be there helping. As for reforms to the Irish church, I am agnostic about this. I need to study all that material and then talk to the Irish bishops”. His conclusion: “The church was left behind the curve on all of that, the church has to modernise and to find new ways of presenting her message to people in this new context of the materialism and consumerism of a society that is now more similar to other European countries than it was in the 1980s”.

From 1994 to his appointment as nuncio, he worked as an official of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. He became a Chaplain of His Holiness on 6 May 2000. He was appointed Adjunct Secretary of the International Theological Commission in September 2009.

Brown warned Catholics against becoming caricatures, “we need to avoid the caricature that the only thing the Catholic Church has to speak about is abortion, gay marriage and contraception”. He said “the caricature would be that these Catholics, all they talk about are those three things, and we don’t want to put ourselves in that situation because the beauty of life with Christ, the spirituality of the Catholic Church, the history of the Catholic Church, the life of grace, the aspiration to be found worthy of the life of the world to come, eternal life, that is what this is about.” In this he echoed Pope Francis in his interview with La Civiltà Cattolica in which he said “we ought not to be reduced as Catholics to the disjointed, obsessive proclamation of a few moral truths to the exclusion of everything else”. He also praised bishops for doing “an excellent job” in their presentation of the church’s teachings prior to the same-sex marriage referendum which took place in May 2015.
