Our parish strongly encourages all who attend mass to con- tinue to wear the mask for the foreseeable future. This is recommended to ensure one's own safety and that of others especially those vulnerable. Having stated this we also recognize that there are some among us who find it difficult to wear a mask due to medical conditions. Such members may excuse themselves from wearing a mask. The underlying principle is that each one of us do all we can to ensure our own safety as well as the safety of our sisters and brothers. Our state, country or world is not out of the woods until the spread of the virus is over worldwide or herd immunity is achieved. May 23rd, 2021 Weekly Schedule at Sts.

    THE VALNERINA GEOLOGICAL PARK A guide to the exploration Notes: Stratigraphy, Tectonics, Geomorphology, Quaternary Geology, Georesources. The Umbria - Marche Apennines, for stratigraphic and tectonic characters, is one of the most studied and visited regions by geologists of all world. Schools and universities bring their students for tracking exercises or follow guided, using this area as a real gym. The Valnerina is an area of particular value, which collects a multiplicity of sites of scientific interest, representative of the main topics of geology, all fairly easy to reach, thanks to the extension of the network of roads and trails. A territory that for these reasons fully deserves the connotation of geological park. In this guide, we provide a brief description of the area and of the very interesting sites (geosites), organized into 10 thematic itineraries. The guide is addressed to teachers who want to lead their students to explore this territory, using it as an open-air laboratory. At the same time, the guide can be used by geologists and geology enthusiasts, as the basis for the organization of geotourist excursions. The visit will enrich to the historical-cultural heritage and natural beauty of this region and the excellent quality of the reception. The "reading tips" provided for each theme, and the bibliography, placed at the end of the volume, can compensate for the schematic treatise due to scarcity of space.

Rita was married at an early age. The marriage lasted for 18 years, during which she is remembered for her Christian values as a model wife and mother who made efforts to convert her husband from his abusive behavior. Upon the murder of her husband by another feuding family, she sought to dissuade her sons from revenge before their calamitous death. She subsequently joined an Augustinian community of religious sisters, where she was known both for practicing mortification of the flesh[1] and for the apparent efficacy of her prayers. St. Rita is venerated due to various miracles attributed to her intercession, and is often portrayed with a bleeding wound on her forehead, which the Roman Catholic Church claims to have been a partial stigmata.

  • CENTRAL ITALY TRAVEL EXHIBITION Travel
    CENTRAL ITALY TRAVEL EXHIBITION Travel itineraries in Marche, Umbria, Lazio and Abruzzo Land, history, art, nature, wellness, wine and food ART AND CULTURE Lazio, Umbria and Marche JourneyinG from one region to the next, small towns and varyinG landscapes give way to one another: destinations, hitherto unknown, that will satisfy every kind of tourist. Along these roads visitors will experience a true holiday, moving from town to town, enjoying new thrills and new flavours thanks to the skillful use of local products. Rieti Rieti (405 m a.s.l.) lies in a valley along the river Velino, shadowed by the massif Monte Terminillo. Writers from the classical era thought of Rieti as the geographical centre of Italy (Umbilicus Italiae). It was founded at the beginning of the Iron Age and later became part of the Sabina region. The town’s strategic position along the Via Salaria (a very important road connecting Rome to the Adriatic Sea) accounted for its rapid growth. Eventually the Sabines had to make way for the Romans who ruled the city for many years and carried out important works such as the reclamation of the Lake Velinus. Rieti continued to grow until the Middle Ages, when it became a free commune and Papal seat. From the medieval era the town retains the urban structure of the old town centre and several monuments: the Cathedral, the Bishop’s Palace, and the remains of the town walls, among others. Leonessa Leonessa (969 m a.s.l.) was founded in 1278 and for six centuries was part of the Abruzzo region, in the province of L’Aquila; only in 1927 did it become part of Lazio.

  • ROME-LIMOUSINES Cascia & Spoleto Daily Excursion from Rome
    ROME-LIMOUSINES Exclusive private tours and beyond Cascia & Spoleto daily excursion from Rome ANCIENT TIME In the municipality of Cascia there was Cursula, a Roman inhabited center destroyed in the 1st century BC due to the barbaric devastations and earthquakes that have always disrupted the town and the surrounding areas. In the Middle Ages it was sacked by the Byzantines and the Lombards. Established in common in the 12th century, Cascia was subdued by the Trinci family and later by Federico II. As a large part of the Umbrian cities, it is during the Middle Ages that the city experienced its heyday. Initially under the domination of the Folignate lords, it later passed under the dominion of Frederick II of Swabia, and was subsequently contended without success by the nearby cities of Norcia, Leonessa and Spoleto. Only on the threshold of the 16th C. it was annexed to the Papal State under whose rule it remained for less than thirty years, since then it maintained its independence. It was elevated to the rank of city in 1596 by Pope Clement VIII. It remained linked to the State of the Church except during the brief Napoleonic period. In 1809, during the French occupation, the territory of Cascia was dismembered to constitute the municipality of Poggiodomo; later, in 1850 it granted the village of Trimezzo to Cittareale, in the then Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, passing the state border between the two municipalities. In 1860 it was annexed, with all of Umbria, to the Kingdom of Sardinia, which became the Kingdom of Italy on 17 March 1861.
