G R E G ’ S N O T E ! “I bear the marks of Jesus on my body.” ~ Galations 6:17 ~ Stigmata is a term used by members of the Christian faith to describe bodily marks, sores, or sensations of pain in locations corresponding to the wounds of Jesus Christ. A number of canonized saints and many others have experienced the physical manifestations of the five wounds of Christ. The term stigmata originates from the line at the end of Saint Paul's Letter to the Galatians where he says, "I bear on my body the marks of Jesus." Stigmata is the plural of the Greek word ‘stigma’, meaning a mark, tattoo, or brand such as might have been used for identification of an animal or slave. An individual bearing stigmata is referred to as a stigmatist. Stigmata are primarily associated with the Roman Catholic faith. Many reported stigmatics are members of religious orders. Two of the most famous saints other than St. Paul are St. Francis of Assisi and St. Padre Pio. St. Francis was the first recorded stigmatic in Christian history. He considered stigmata as part of his imitation of Christ. For over fifty years St. Padre Pio had stigmata which were studied by several 20th century physicians. The observations were reportedly unexplainable and the wounds never became infected. Interestingly, close to 80% of all stigmatics are women. Reported cases of stigmata take various forms. Many show some or all of five Holy Wounds that were, according to the Bible, inflicted on Jesus during his crucifixion. The wounds include nail holes in wrists and feet, a spear wound in the side, thorn marks on the head, and scourging on the back. Some stigmatics display other wounds as well such as tears of blood or sweating of blood. There are a number of saints who have been so holy and chosen to bear the wounds of Jesus on their bodies. Here is a list of some notable stigmatics to read about. Saint Paul the Apostle, Saint Catherine of Ricci, Saint Catherine of Siena, Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Gemma Galgani, Saint Veronica Giuliani, Saint John of God, Saint Faustina Kowalska, Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, Saint Rita of Cascia In our Father’s hands, Fr.

  • A Name Identifies You in a Unique Way, Not Just Your Physical Self, but Who You Are As Person
    CHOOSING A CONFIRMATION NAME. A name identifies you in a unique way, not just your physical self, but who you are as person. One of the traditional practices in the Church at the time of Confirmation is choosing a name that will remind you of this sacrament. Your prayerful reflection will help you determine that name. You might want to recommit yourself to your baptismal name since it expresses the relationship that exist between these two sacraments, especially after you reflect on its meaning and discover some of the people who shared your name in Christian history. You might want to choose the name of a saint who represents the type of Cristian you wish to be. It is important to learn as much as you can about your patron saint. After all, you are asking this saint to be your friend and advocate for the rest of your life. Whether you decide to stay with your baptismal name or pick a new name, take the time to research and explore the root meaning of the name, for as Scripture says: “Yahweh calls each of us by name”. One of the most beautiful parts of your journey towards confirmation is choosing a patron saint, one of the great saints of our Church whose life in Christ is one that inspires you and calls you to be an ardent and radiant catholic. The saint are not just people who lived long ago! Moreover, they are alive in heaven now, totally present in our lives through God’s grace and their prayers.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See BENEDICT XVI GENERAL AUDIENCE Paul VI Hall Wednesday, 15 December 2010 Saint Veronica Giuliani Dear Brothers and Sisters, Today I would like to present a mystic who did not live in the Middle Ages. She is St Veronica Giuliani, a Poor Clare Capuchin nun. The reason is that 27 December will be the 350th anniversary of her birth. Città di Castello, the place where she lived the longest and where she died, as well as Mercatello — her birthplace — and the Diocese of Urbino are celebrating this event with joy. Indeed, Veronica was born on 27 December 1660 in Mercatello, in the Metauro Valley to Francesco Giuliani and Benedetta Mancini. She was the last of seven sisters, three of whom were to embrace the monastic life. She was given the name “Orsola” [Ursula]. She was seven years old when her mother died and her father moved to Piacenza as customs superintendent of the Duchy of Parma. It was in this city that Ursula felt a growing desire to dedicate her life to Christ. The call to her became ever more pressing so that, when she was 17, she entered the strict cloister of the monastery of Capuchin Poor Clares in Città di Castello. She was to remain here for the rest of her life. Here she received the name of “Veronica”, which means “true image” and she was in fact to become a true image of the Crucified Christ. 2 A year later she made her solemn religious profession and the process of configuration to Christ began for her, through much penance, great suffering, and several mystic experiences linked to the Passion of Jesus: being crowned with thorns, the mystical espousal, the wound in her heart and the stigmata.

  • Franciscan Sacramentary Supplement
    1 FRANCISCAN PROPER OF THE SAINTS July 4 1. The rank of the celebration (solemnity, feast or memorial) is indicated for each day. If there is no indication, it is an optional memorial. 2. For each solemnity and feast a proper Mass is provided in its entirety. This is therefore used as given. 3. For memorials: a) Proper texts, given on some days, must always be used; b) When there is a reference to a particular common, the most appropriate texts should be chosen according to the principles at the beginning of the commons. The page reference in each case indicates only the beginning of the common to which reference is made. c) If the rederence is to more than one common, one or the other may be used, according to pastoral need. It is always permissible to interchange texts from several Masses within the same common. For example, if a saint is both a martyr and a bishop, either the common of martyrs or the common of pastor (bishops) may be used. d) In addition to the commons which express a special characteristic holiness (e.g., of martyrs, virgins, or pastors), the texts from the common of saints, referring to holiness in general may always be used. For example, in the case of a saint who is both a virgin and a martyr, texts from the common of saints in general may be used, in addition to texts from the common of martyrs or the common of virgins. e) The prayers over the gifts and after communion, unless there are proper prayers, may be taken either from the common or from the current liturgical season.

  • Santa Gemma Galgani
    Suor Gesualda Saldi SANTA GEMMA GALGANI CAPITOLO I UNA CONFESSIONE Io conobbi di vista Gemma Galgani; più volte mi trovai accanto a lei nelle lunghe attese al confessionale di monsignor Volpi, ma non m'ispirò simpatia. Non la conobbi mai personalmente, né le parlai, perché le nostre famiglie non erano in relazione. Sapevo che era una povera figlia accolta per carità dalla famiglia Giannini, che aveva ricevuto una grazia dalla beata Margherita Maria. Un' amica mi disse un giorno di lei: «E’un pollino freddo. Se si mette qui, sta qui; se si mette là, sta là», e ciò non accrebbe le mie simpatie. Un giorno, per caso, la vidi sorridere: l'incanto di quel sorriso mi colpì; l'ho sempre nella mente e nel cuore. Ecco tutto ciò che di lei mi rimase, tutto ciò che allora seppi di lei. Chi invece m'ispirava vivissima simpatia erano le due sorelle: Annetta ed Eufemia Giannini. Incontrandoci, pur senza conoscerci, ci facevamo dei saluti amichevoli. Per me, era una gioia quando vedevo spuntar da lontano quel gruppetto, e qualsiasi irritazione, o turbamento interno che provassi, si calmava come per incanto a quell'incontro. Lo attribuivo alla vista di quelle due dolci creature, non alla santa che era con loro. Capisco ora che quella pace era lei, invece, a infonderla in me. Dopo la morte di Gemma, mi parlarono di lei come di una santa, e la notizia mi commosse. Poi le opinioni più varie vennero a frastornarmi; ma il tracollo lo dette una persona che avrebbe voluto e dovuto farmela amare.
