St. Camillus of Lellis Catholic.Net St. Camillus of Lellis Catholic.net Also known as • Camillus de Lellis • Camillo de Lellis Memorial • 14 July • 18 July (United States) Profile • Son of a military officer who had served both for Naples and France. His mother died when Camillus was very young. He spent his youth as a soldier, fighting for the Venetians against the Turks, and then for Naples. Reported as a large individual, perhaps as tall as 6’6″ (2 metres), and powerfully built, but he suffered all his life from abscesses on his feet. A gambling addict, he lost so much he had to take a job working construction on a building belonging to the Capuchins; they converted him. • Camillus entered the Capuchin noviate three times, but a nagging leg injury, received while fighting the Turks, each time forced him to give it up. He went to Rome, Italy for medical treatment where Saint Philip Neri became his priest and confessor. He moved into San Giacomo Hospital for the incurable, and eventually became its administrator. Lacking education, he began to study with children when he was 32 years old. Priest. Founded the Congregation of the Servants of the Sick (the Camillians or Fathers of a Good Death) who, naturally, care for the sick both in hospital and home. The Order expanded with houses in several countries. Camillus honoured the sick as living images of Christ, and hoped that the service he gave them did penance for his wayward youth. Reported to have the gifts of miraculous healing and prophecy.

  • Patrocinium of Calasanz
    The Patrocinium of St. Joseph Calasanz November 27 Although the Feast of St. Joseph Calasanz is celebrated on August 25, this date often falls at the end of summer vacation for most Piarist Schools. As a result, the religious order has designated November 27, which is the day he opened Europe’s first free public school, as the Patrocinium, a special day to honor and celebrate St. Joseph Calasanz. Joseph was born on September 11, 1557 in a tiny village called Peralta de la Sal. He was a Spanish priest from Aragon, Spain, who went to Rome at the end of the sixteenth century and started schools for poor and homeless children. He also started a religious congregation to serve these schools which is today spread throughout the world. He was well educated in philosophy, law and theology at the Spanish universities of Estadilla, Lerida, and Valencia. His family initially did not support his religious calling. His father wanted him to marry and to continue the family, but after recovering from an illness which brought him close to death, Calasanz was ordained as a priest on December 17, 1583. He subsequently became vicar general of Tremp. He later relinquished much of his inheritance and resigned his vicariate. For the next ten years, he held various posts as a secretary, administrator and theologian in the Diocese of Albarracín in Spain. In 1592, Joseph went to Rome, where he became a theologian in the service of Cardinal Marcoantonio Colonna and a tutor to his nephew. He worked alongside St. Camillus de Lellis during the plague, which hit Rome at the time.

  • Meeting of the Major Superiors of the Order of Camillians Rome, 14-18 March 2019
    1 Meeting of the Major Superiors of the Order of Camillians Rome, 14-18 March 2019 IN PREPARATION FOR THE GENERAL CHAPTER OF MAY 2020 THE HISTORY OF CAMILLIAN SUPERIOR GENERALS AND GENERAL CHAPTERS: Some Historical Notes and Curiosities! Fr. Leo Pessini The superior general presides over the government of the entire Order. He has jurisdiction and authority over the provinces, the vice-provinces, the delegations, the houses and the religious (Constitution, 97). The superior general also consults the provincial superiors, vice-provincials and delegates in matters of major importance which concern the entire Order. If possible once a year and, whenever this is necessary, he shall convene the provincials, vice-provincials and delegates…to address various questions with the general consulta (General Statutes, 79) The general chapter, wherein resides the supreme collegial authority of the Order, is formed of representatives of the whole Order and thus is a sign of unity in charity (Constitution, 113) Introduction We are beginning the preparations for the fifty-ninth General Chapter of the Order of Camillians which we will celebrate starting on 2 May 2020 and whose subject will be ‘Which Camillian Prophecy Today? Peering into the Past and Living in the Present Trying to Serve as Samaritans and Journeying with Hope towards the Future’ The subject of prophecy is once again of great contemporary relevance and appears always new as a challenge for consecrated life today. Let us welcome the invitation of Pope Francis who has repeatedly called our attention to this specific characteristic of consecrated life: prophecy! ‘I hope that you will wake up the world’ because the known characteristic of consecrated life is prophecy.

  • St. Joseph's Messenger
    MARCH 2021 VOL. 24 St. Joseph’s Messenger “GROUNDED IN THE TRADITION OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, ST. A BULLETIN FOR INSPIRING ​ JOSEPH’S SCHOOL IS A COMMUNITY DEDICATED TO FORMING SCHOOL FAMILIES DISCIPLES OF JESUS CHRIST THROUGH FAITH, ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE, AND SERVICE TO OTHERS.” ​Notes from Fr. Blake During the month of March, we continue our Lenten journey. I was edified in seeing so many people at church on Ash Wednesday at the beginning of Lent. The ashes remind us that we only have so much time here on earth and then we will be judged by God. Therefore, we need to make the most of our time. At Mass, the priest says, “ ​Remember that .” Or, “ you are dust and to dust​ ​you shall return​ ​Repent and believe in !” Both these sayings have a similar impact. They call us to the Gospel​ conversion. People show up to receive ashes because the ashes help people to focus on what truly matters. Time is fleeting! Growing up, I heard people say, “You kids grow up so fast!” I did not think much of it at the time, but now I realize what they meant. In serving as a priest over the past number of years, I have seen these kids in Catholic schools all of a sudden graduating high school. Is faith in Christ the top priority for your family? Do you do your best to follow Him in His Church? At the beginning of Lent, a lot of us make it clear that faith is our top priority. As Lent carries on, we may become more lax in our practice, but if we remember that we only have so much time here on earth, then we can get back on track in following Jesus.

This Calendar is used by authors of ordines and other liturgical aids published to foster the celebration of the liturgy in our country. The Calendar is based upon the General Roman Calendar, promulgated by Pope Saint Paul VI on February 14, 1969, subsequently amended by the Holy See, and the Proper Calendar for the Dioceses of the United States of America, approved by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.1 This Calendar has been updated to reflect the names and titles of the various liturgical days in conformity with the Roman Missal, Third Edition. The General Instruction of the Roman Missal reminds us that in the cycles of readings and prayers proclaimed throughout the year in the sacred liturgy “the mysteries of redemption are celebrated so as to be in some way made present.” Thus may each celebration of the Holy Eucharist which is served by this Calendar be for the Church in the United States of America “the high point both of the action by which God sanctifies the world in Christ and of the worship that the human race offers to the Father, adoring him through Christ, the Son of God, in the Holy Spirit.”2 Sincerely in Christ, Rev.

He said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” People were coming and going in great numbers, and they had no opportunity even to eat. So they went off in the boat by themselves to a deserted place. People saw them leaving and many came to know about it. They hastened there on foot from all the towns and arrived at the place before them. When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
