St. Paul writes in his letter ADVENT AND FAMILY WREATH to the Romans 8:22, “We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.” Dear brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus, Paul described the advent of redemption as a common thirst of all creation. When our personal aspirations are blended to become a As we know well, the word ‘Advent’ comes from the Latin word shared family goal, we discover renewed strength and motivation in “adventus”, which means “coming”. The season of Advent is an important life. It is also an efficient way to prioritize our spiritual aspirations over call to renewal and preparation for God’s coming to visit us. and above the rest for as Jesus said, “Strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as Just as the preparations surrounding the biblical birth of Child Jesus well”. (Matthew 6:33) began with the founding of the HOLY FAMILY, our preparations for this Christmas will achieve its true purpose when we are convinced to Week 2: Angels’ Sunday - Proclamation: After the ascension of transform our families into Holy Families modeled after Joseph, Mary Jesus, the disciples stood staring into the sky. And suddenly two angels and Jesus. Towards this end and in continuation to our reflections on appear and ask them: “Men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking ‘Family Prayer’, I wish to reflect on a very meaningful advent tradition into the sky?” God does not want us to keep standing, staring into the that is gaining prominence in many parishes of our Archdiocese: the sky. This is not Christian waiting. He has given them a command, “To ‘Advent Wreath’! proclaim the Good News to the ends of the world; to baptize, to heal and to cast out demons.” Their mission was not to stand simply looking Though the origins of the advent wreath tradition are uncertain into the sky. They are obliged to go and proclaim the Good News. As there are evidences to ascertain that it started more as a house-hold Catholic families, our advent waiting consists in proclaiming the tradition than in a church setting. The members of a family would presence and activity of Christ in the most ordinary events and people gather around the advent wreath before dinner and light the of our lives. corresponding candle of the day as part of their family prayer. This household practice has now been incorporated into church liturgies. Week 3: Gaudete Sunday/Shepherds’ Sunday - Celebration/ In a manner of rediscovering the roots of this tradition, I encourage Joy: One might ask why we would anticipate the joy of Christmas all the families of our Archdiocese to make it a part of our family advent already during the third week of advent. There is a deeper biblical and observance this year. I would recommend you to spend time as a family spiritual meaning to this anticipation. Christian joy is not in the obvious setting up the advent wreath, explaining its significance and rich and visible evidences of securities. The shepherds rejoiced in the vision symbolism to our children to catechize them with the meaning of this of a baby in seeming poverty because their joy was rooted in hope. liturgical season. It would be meaningful for each member of the family Christian joy is rooted in hope even when good times are not so evident to take his or her turn to light the candles during the family prayer or obvious. Pope Francis beautifully states in Evangelii Gaudium, No. 6, before the night meals. “Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our personal certainty that, when everything is said and The wreath is circular, symbolizing the everlasting love of God and done, we are infinitely loved.” made of evergreens symbolizing God’s eternity. There are four candles on the wreath, lighted every Sunday each representing one week of Week 4: Magi Sunday - Fulfillment: Advent reminds us that the advent. There are three purple candles symbolizing prayer and penance fulfillment that we so earnestly seek in our lives, can only be found in and a rose candle symbolizing joy. There are also a few modern discovering the presence of Jesus as a family. Advent is not just about traditions which include a fifth white candle, symbolizing baby Jesus, the fulfillment of a set of biblical promises, rather a celebration of the to be lighted on Christmas Eve. The traditional themes attributed to hope of fulfillment to be experienced in our familial relationships with every advent week are wonderful opportunities for the family members each other as parents, children and couples in family life here and to reflect and pray in preparation for the Lord’s coming with one heart now. This is the fulfillment that our advent celebrations promise us and spirit. and it is in our hands to work towards its fulfillment. ¨û\YôrÜ 1 December 2018 ¨û\YôrÜ 2 December 2018 I wish you all a very meaningful preparation of advent and a very nrgj;jpd; mq;fkhf mij khw;wTk;> ekf;F ,J gad; jUtjhf blessed Christmas.

  • For the Academic Year
    Leavers’ Ceremony for2019-2020 the academic year from St David’s Metropolitan Cathedral 10th September 2020 A Message from the Principal Dear Students, The Catholic Church has a longstanding tradition of seeking to provide a holistic education accessible all young people regardless of their ability, background or personal experience. The Church is here for all. St David’s is fortunate in being able to participate in the continuation of this tradition. St David’s offers young people a spiritual ethos founded in the Christian faith, a welcoming physical environment and a combination of empathetic and quality teaching and education that prepares its students well for the opportunities and challenges of life. Your achievements and contributions at St David’s this past year have been impressive. Many of you will now be moving on to university, while others will be moving directly into the world of employment or training. Whatever it is you choose to do, it is important to remember that, when undertaken in love, all things are worthwhile and valuable in the eyes of God. As the awards are made tonight it is hoped that we will have time to reflect upon the names associated with them. The achievements and the sacrifices of each of these remarkable individuals, each in their own way, provides inspiration to us all. Whether it be the work of a Saint or the more modest contribution of a former member of our community, each contributes to who we are and to what we will be. It is our hope that your time spent at St David’s Catholic College has been fruitful, both academically and personally, and that you are blessed in your future endeavours.

  • An Introduction to the Theme of World Meeting of Families 2018 Pastoral
    An Introduction to the Theme of World Meeting of Families 2018 The theme for each World Meeting of Families is chosen by the Pope. In choosing The Gospel of the Family: Joy for the World, as the theme for the ninth World Meeting of Families in Dublin, Ireland, Pope Francis invites us to reflect on a theme that was central to the Synodal process that led to his post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia: On Love in the Family. ‘The Church and The Gospel of the Family’ was a key theme in the Preparatory Document for the III Extraordinary Assembly of Bishops in October 2014, a document that was the subject of unprecedented consultation among the faithful of the Church across the world. While the preparatory document does not give a specific definition of the term, ‘The Gospel of the Family’, it does convey at least three senses in which this relatively new phrase in the Church’s tradition can be understood: • The family, founded on the marriage of a man and woman, is part of God’s plan from the beginning. The ‘Good News’ of the family is therefore an indispensable part of the joyful message of the Gospel that the Church proclaims. • The family is the principal agent of evangelisation of its own members. As the first school of faith and love, the Christian family is often where we ourselves first come to know Jesus and his love. • The family proclaims the Gospel to the World. The Christian family, by its witness to the life and love of Jesus, is a principal agent of evangelisation to the world.

    Polio in Italy Bernardino Fantini (*) (*) Institute for the History of Medicine and Health, University of Geneva. [email protected] Dynamis Fecha de recepción: 23 de enero de 2012 [0211-9536] 2012; 32 (2): 329-359 Fecha de aceptación: 5 de marzo de 2012 SUMMARY: 1.—Introduction. 2.—The epidemiology of polio in Italy. 3.—The social and scientific reactions to the polio epidemics. 4.—The 1958 epidemics. 5.—The different actors. 6.—The vaccination campaign and the elimination of the disease. 7.—Changing attitudes in patients and the public. 8.—The origins of patient’s associations. 9.—The post-epidemic problems. The post-polio syndrome. 10.—Concluding remarks. ABSTRACT: The history of polio in Italy is relatively short because the particular social and demographic history of the country has actually compressed the most dramatic history of the polio epidemic into only 40 years, from the first severe epidemic just before World War II to the early 1980s, when the epidemic vanished thanks to an effective and country-wide vaccination campaign. The epidemic, however, had a formidable impact on medicine, public health, social attitudes and culture. An analysis of this case study can illustrate the impact of an epidemic of a severe disease on individual and collective life, and at the same time the efficacy of public health measures against it, and the importance of the social structure, state and private, in coping with the consequences of the epidemics. In this period, the attitude towards the handicapped changed from stigma and isolation to social integration, thanks especially to the changes in health legislation, social action and the initiatives of the patient’ associations.
