Ecumenical Council
The word ecumenical comes the Greek and means "of the whole world." These councils of the church, both ancient and modern, stand out as expressions of the guidance of the Holy Spirit. An ecumenical council brings together the bishops of the whole world with the bishop of Rome, and the pope, to guide the church in matters of faith and life in Jesus Christ.

The Friars
The word friars comes from a Latin word frater, meaning "brother".
Friars were not like monasteries because they were mendicant( which is the Latin word for beggar)
They would do their work out in the world
They would depend entirely on the generosity of other people for their daily needs
The two great orders of friars were the Fransiscans and Dominicans
They were educated in their faith and defended their faith to all who would hear.

Black Death
This disease called the Bubonic Plague, took place is 1300-1500 A.D.
The sickness got its name because it's victims died a painful death and even looked bruised or "black and blue"
Economies and social structures like feudalism were heavily impacted or destroyed
It took four hundred years to restore the earth to its original population
This impacted the church because so many educated people were dying, and the ones that were still alive were scared to do a normal mass because they might contract the disease
Many priests were holding masses for the dead instead of holding normal masses and some were even making money by collecting fees.

Protestant Reformation
It was initiated by Martin Luther, John Calvin, and other Protestants.
In 1517, Martin Luther came up with the The Ninety-Five Theses.
These statements started the great protest against the church.
This protest spread through the Western part of Europe and would become the Protestant Reformation.
This was a great revolt against the Catholic Church.
After this reformation many people left the Catholic Church, following Martin Luther's teachings, and formed a new community, called the Lutherans.

Council of Trent
The Council of Trent Met from 1545-1563. The council of Trent focused on confronting the need for reform within the church and disproving Protestent beliefs. The council of Trent affirmed that, though human beings are capable of terrible sin, humanity is not essentially evil. They also affirmed that there are seven sacraments and upheld the truth of the Eucharist. The council of Trent required all bishops to work to reform the Church. The council of Trent set forth the official teaching of the Church on all important matters, signaling the beginning of a substantial program of reform within the Church itself.

The council asked them to do this by living within their dioceses, caring for the spiritual welfare of their people, preaching regularly, visiting every parish at least once a year, watching over monasteries and convents, supervising hospitals and charitable institutes, and setting an example of good Christian conduct.
