Originally numbering seven, Pope Sixtus V 1585 90 increased their number to twelve. Their importance gradually diminished, and at the time of the French Revolution the office had almost entirely disappeared.

In the Catholic Church , an apostolic visitor or Apostolic Visitator is a papal representative with a transient mission to perform a canonical visitation of relatively short duration. The visitor is deputed to investigate a special circumstance in a diocese or country, and to submit a report to the Holy See at the conclusion of the investigation. History Apostolic visitors are church officials whom canonists commonly class with papal legate s. Visitors differ from other Apostolic delegate s, principally in this, that their mission is only transient and of comparatively short duration. In ancient times, the popes generally exercised their right of inspecting the dioceses of various countries through their nuncio s or delegates c. 1, Extravag. Comm. de Consuet. I, 1 c. 17, X, de Cens. III, 39 , though they occasionally, even in the primitive ages, sent special visitors. In the modern time, the mission of papal nuncio s is rather of a diplomatic than of a visitatorial character. Visitors are, however, deputed by the pope for special emergencies and not at stated intervals. Their duty is to inspect the state of the Church in the country confided to them and then to draw up a report to the Holy See. At times, this visitation is made with the same attention to details as is an episcopal visitation. Visitors Apostolic are also appointed to visit the various provinces of a religious order, whenever, in the judgment of the pope, this becomes useful or necessary. In all cases of Apostolic visitation, the pope, through delegates, is putting into effect the supreme and immediate jurisdiction which is his for any and every part of the Church.

unreferenced date October 2008 In the Roman Catholic Church Catholic Church , the Apostolic Pardon is an indulgence given for the remission of temporal punishment due to sin . The Apostolic Pardon is given by a priest , usually along with Viaticum i.e. reception of Communion by a dying person, see Pastoral Care of the Sick, USA numbers 184, 187, 195, 201 . It is not usually given as part of the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick . However if the Anointing of the Sick is given with Viaticum, in exceptional circumstances or an emergency, it may be given then. See Pastoral Care of the Sick, USA numbers 243, 265 Prior to the Second Vatican Council , the Apostolic Pardon was called the Apostolic Blessing. According to the church, a person who is properly disposed by being in the state of grace i.e., the person has committed no known and unconfessed mortal sins who receives the Apostolic Pardon gains the complete pardon of all temporal punishment due to sin that has already been forgiven by the reception of absolution and the doing of penance, i.e., a plenary indulgence. The Apostolic Pardon does not forgive sins by the act of absolution it deals only with the punishment purgation due for those sins that have already been sacramentally forgiven. However, the Sacrament of Penance, or Reconciliation, which does forgive sins, is usually administered along with the Apostolic Pardon as a part of the Last Rites. Form The current form of the Apostolic Pardon usually takes one of two forms Latin Ego facult te mihi ab Apost lica Sede trib ta, indulg ntiam plen riam et remissi nem mnium peccat rum tibi conc do, in n mine Patris, et F lii, et Sp ritus Sancti.

Apostolic Expeditors in full, in Latin Expeditionarius literarum apostolicarum, Datariae Apostolicae sollicitator atque expeditor in Italian simply Spedizionieri are Roman Curia l officials who attend to the sending of Papal Bull s, Papal Brief s and Papal Rescript s emanating from the Apostolic Chancery , the Dataria , the Sacred Paenitentiaria and the Secretariate of Briefs . History In a restricted and specific sense expeditors or expeditioners are laymen approved by the Dataria, after an examination, to act as agents for bishops or others before the Dataria or Apostolic Chancery. They are members of the Roman Court. They differ from solicitor s as well as from wikt procurator procurator s or agents in general, who transact business with the Roman Congregations . A solicitor, strictly speaking, is an assistant to a procurator, doing the mechanical work of preparing documents. An expeditor is more concerned with matters of favour, privileges, Dispensation Catholic Church dispensation s and so on, than with cases in litigation. It has been the practice of the Dataria and Apostolic Chancery to carry on business only with authorized agents or expeditors, whose office it is to draw up and sign the necessary documents, receive and forward the answer given. They receive a certain fixed fee for each transaction, while procurators and solicitors generally receive a monthly stipend. The number of expeditors has varied. Cardinal Pacca, pro datarius , decided in 1833 that the number, which was then one hundred, should be regulated by the amount of business to be transacted. Circa 1900 there were about thirty. In reorganizing the Roman Court, Pope Pius X deprived these expeditors of their exclusive right to appear before the Dataria and Apostolic Chancery.

A Commissary Apostolic Latin Commissarius Apostolicus is Commissary i.e. one who has received power from a legitimate superior authority to pass judgment in a certain cause or to take information concerning it who has been appointed by the pope, hence commissary Apostolic . History The custom of appointing such commissaries by the Holy See is a very ancient one. A noteworthy instance is the commission issued to St. Cyril of Alexandria by Pope Celestine I , in the early part of the fifth Century, by which that holy patriarch was empowered to judge Nestorius in the pope s name. English history furnishes, among other instances, that of the commission which constituted Cardinal Wolsey and Cardinal Campeggio papal representatives for the judicial hearing of the divorce case of king Henry VIII of England Henry VIII Tudor . Sometimes Apostolic commissions are constituted permanently by the Holy See. Such are the various Roman congregation s presided over by the cardinals. The full extent of the authority of commissaries Apostolic must be learnt from the diploma of their appointment.

An apostolic school is a missionary college of the Roman Catholic Church , having for its object to cultivate vocations for foreign missions. History Apostolic schools, as distinct from junior ecclesiastical seminaries, owed their origin to Father Alberic de Foresta , S.J. b. 1818 d. 1876 . He formed the design of opening a school where youths who gave promise of an ecclesiastical vocation, and who were disposed to go and labour on foreign missions, might be properly trained. With the approval of his superiors, Father de Foresta opened the first apostolic school at Avignon in 1865 ref James Patrick Daughton, An Empire Divided 2006 , p. 37. ref The course of studies in the apostolic school comprised training in the Latin and Greek classics, in modern languages, and in mathematics. The residence of the scholars was near one of the colleges of the Society of Jesus the pupils attended classes along with the students of the college. In 1868 similar apostolic schools were established at Amiens and Turin in 1869 one was opened at Poitiers , in 1871 at Turnhout in Belgium and at New Orleans , in 1873 at Bordeaux , in 1874 at Tananarive , in 1877 at Dole and at Monaco , and in 1879 at Boulogne sur Mer .

The Apostolic Intervention were a United Kingdom British rock music rock band in the mid 1960s, who are best known for their 1967 single music single Tell Me Have You Ever Seen Me . The band originally formed in Hertfordshire in Late 1965 as The Little People , and comprised Angus Shirley lead guitar , Dino Dines Peter Dino Dines organ, vocals , Bob Argent bass , and Angus younger brother Jerry Shirley drums . They began by playing cover version covers of United States American R&B records, and emulated the music of their heroes, The Small Faces . After they supported the latter band on a local bill, Steve Marriott became their mentor, and persuaded Andrew Loog Oldham of Immediate Records to sign them in early 1967. Marriott wanted them to change their name to The Nice, but Oldham insisted on them using the name The Apostolic Intervention, giving the name The Nice to another band instead. Marriott offered the band a song that he and Ronnie Lane had written, Tell Me Have You Ever Seen Me , producing their single and playing bass guitar bass on the record in preference to Bob Argent. The record failed to make the charts, and the song was soon recorded by The Small Faces themselves on their album Small Faces 1967 album Small Faces issued in the US in a different form as There are But Four Small Faces . Further attempts at recording The Apostolic Intervention were unsuccessful, and the band split up before the end of 1967. Dines and Jerry Shirley joined Tim Renwick in a band known variously as Little Women and the Wages of Sin. Dines later joined the Keef Hartley Band and T. Rex band T.
