What is called a place where monks live?
Normally it would be called a monastery, although it can also be an Abbey, a Priory, or a Rectory, or even an Archabbey in the case of St. Vincent Archabbey in Latrobe, Pennsylvania; depending on the specific circumstances. There are also several groups of monks, like the Camaldolese and the Carthusians who live in hermitages.
Is there an authentic Roman Catholic order governed by the Vatican which accepts men over the age of 60?
Roman Catholic AnswerAttached below are some resources regarding older vocations. It there is a particular order that you are interested in, give them a call and ask. If they say, "no", then ask them whom they would recommend. I know that my monastery, Saint Vincent Archabbey normally only accepts men up to their forties, but I have seen some much older men accepted as novices on a one by one basis. You can always ask. In particular, check out the third link below:
What group of priests have pastoral care of the parish?
Catholic AnswerWhatever priests the Bishop of the diocese assigns to a particular parish. Normally one priest is assigned as pastor and he has pastoral care of the parish. Other priests, either assistants, or "in residence" help out. In some circumstances, a parish may be entrusted by its Bishop to a Religious Order to staff, the Franciscans staffed my local parish for many years, and St. Vincent Archabbey, in Pennsylvania, is composed of Benedictine monks, many of whom have staffed parishes for many years. Still, even in these circumstances, only one priest is named as pastor.
What are different congregation of priest?
Roman Catholic AnswerThere are two difference definitions of the word, "congregation" when speaking of priests: 1) It can refer to Institutes of Christian perfection whose members take Simple Vows, as distinguished from religious orders in which solemn vows are made. Congregations are a modern development in the Catholic Church and may be either diocesan or pontifical depending on whether they are subject to the local bishop or the Holy See. An example would be the Passionists.2) The term "congregation" is also applied to groups of monasteries to facilitate discipline and intercommunication. Saint Vincent Archabbey is the motherhouse of the American-Cassinesse congregation of Benedictine Abbeys.
Which Catholic Church has special privileges?
Roman Catholic AnswerMany Catholic Churches have special privileges: a major Basilica has an altar exclusively for the Pope's use, and by others only he can give permission to. Most have a papal throne. There are minor Basilicas throughout the world, the clergy who serve in them enjoy a title of honor that gives them certain ceremonial rites. Saint Vincent Archabbey Basilica, the church at my monastery is designated a minor Basilica. Cathedrals are the official church of a Bishop, containing his throne. They are the mother church for the diocese, the date of their consecration is a feast for that diocese.There are also many indulgences that can only be obtained by visiting a certain Church.
When did Catholic nuns first wear habits?
St. Benedict and his twin sister, Scholastica, started the first Benedictine Order in the late sixth century. They are the first "nuns" that I know of for sure. I'm certain that there were religious women living in community before then, but I've never really read anything about them. However, I do know that St. Scholastica's monastery of women wore a similar habit that many of them still wear today. Below is a picture of the nuns today at St. Emma's monastery in Pennsylvania. These nuns used to run the food service at my monastery of St. Vincent Archabbey for many years. Their habit consists of a robe, a scapular, a wimple, cowl, and veil.
