  • Daily Lenten Devotions Prayer Fasting Almsgiving
    2021 Redemptorist Reflections Daily Lenten Devotions Prayer Fasting Almsgiving The Redemptorists With Him is plentiful redemption. (Psalm 130:7) Who are the Redemptorists? St. Alphonsus Liguori was born in Naples, Italy, in 1696. He left a promising legal career against the wishes of his family and became a priest. Alphonsus dedicated himself completely to serving the poor and most abandoned, and in 1732 he founded the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer: The Redemptorists. Alphonsus and his companions preached the word of God in rural and isolated communities around Naples. By the early 19th century Redemptorists were serving in central Italy, Poland, Germany, Belgium, and Holland. In 1832 six Redemptorists traveled to the United States and for the first time began missionary work outside of Europe. They served initially among Native Americans and then with Irish, German, and Slavic immigrants. In 1850 the Redemptorists’ American Province was established in Baltimore. Today we Redemptorists continue our ministry to the poor and most abandoned, in inner cities, hospitals, and prisons. We preach parish missions, staff parishes, promote devotion to Our Mother of Perpetual Help, and participate in many evangelization activities through traditional and new media. Following in the footsteps of St. Alphonsus Liguori and 18 other confreres who have been canonized or beatified, approximately 5,500 Redemptorists serve in 82 countries throughout the world. As Redemptorists, we have a special devotion to the crib of Bethlehem, the cross of Calvary, the Eucharist, and Mary, the Mother of God. Will you help us serve God’s people with a gift today?

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See MESSAGE OF JOHN PAUL II TO THE POOR CLARES FOR THE 750th ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF SAINT CLARE Dearest Sisters,1. The 11th of August 1253 marked the end of the earthly pilgrimage of St Clare of Assisi, disciple of St Francis and foundress of your Order, known as the Poor Sisters or Poor Clares, that today counts, in its various branches, around 900 monasteries scattered over the five continents. Seven hundred and fifty years from her death, the commemoration of this great Saint continues to be keenly felt in the hearts of the faithful; I am pleased on this occasion to send to your religious Family a cordial thought and an affectionate greeting.On such an important jubilee commeration, St Clare urges all to understand in a much deeper way the value of the vocation, which is a gift given from God, intended to bear fruit. Concerning this, she wrote in her Testament: "Among the other gifts that we have received and do daily receive from our benefactor, the Father of mercies, and for which we must express the deepest thanks to the glorious Father of Christ, there is our vocation, for which, all the more by the way of its being more perfect and greater, do we owe the greatest thanks to Him. Therefore, the Apostle [writes]: "Know your vocation'" (2-4).2. Born in Assisi between the years 1193-1194 of the noble family Di Favarone of Offreduccio, St Clare received, especially from her mother Ortolana, a solid Christian education. Illuminated by divine grace, she let herself be drawn to the new form of evangelical life initiated by St Francis and his companions, and decided, in her turn, to embark on a more radical following of Christ.

  • History of the Franciscan Movement
    HISTORY OF THE FRANCISCAN MOVEMENT Volume 2 FROM THE YEAR 1517 TO THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL On-line course in Franciscan History at Washington Theological Union Washington DC By Noel Muscat OFM Jerusalem 2008 History of the Franciscan Movement. Volume 2: From 1517 to the Second Vatican Council Chapter 10 NEW REFORMS AND NEW DIVISIONS: THE BIRTH OF THE CAPUCHINS AND REFORMS WITHIN THE OBSERVANCE The friars “of the Holy Gospel” The Order of Friars Minor of the Regular Observance, after the union of all the reformed families in 1517, became a powerful religious family dedicated mainly to apostolic missions. A minority of friars, however, continued to insist upon living a simpler Franciscan life in the hermitages. Besides the Amadeiti and Coletani, there were other congregations which preferred eremitical life, like the Clareni and the friars “of the Holy Gospel” or Capuciati. This last religious family was one which the Bulla Ite vos of Leo X (1517) had not managed to integrate within the Order of the Friars Minor of the Regular Observance. They were born, as we have already seen, with the initiative of Juan de la Puebla, who had made an experience of Franciscan life in the Umbrian hermitages of central Italy, and then had returned to Spain, founding a congregation of friars who lived the literal observance of the Rule in the hermitages. Among his followers there was Juan de Guadalupe, who in 1508 obtained the approval of the Province “of the Holy Gospel”.1 The negative reaction of the Spanish Observants, who persecuted the new religious family, compelled the brothers of the Custody of Estremadura to place themselves under the obedience of the Conventuals in 1515, and thus became to be known by the name of “Reformed Conventuals”.2 They wore a short tunic with a pyramidal hood, and hence also the name Capuciati.

Carm. * The word Carmel virtually defines the religious family that calls itself the Carmelite Order. It is a geographical designation (as in also Carthusian and Cistercian), not a person's name like Francis, Dominic and the Servite Seven Holy Founders. In the Church's calendar, Carmel is one of three Marian sites celebrated liturgically, along with Lourdes and St. Mary Major. It may be asked: Who founded the Carmelites on Mount Carmel? There is no easy answer, though some names have been suggested, begin, ning with the letter B-Brocard, Berthold, ...What is known is that during the Crusades in the late eleven,hundreds some Euro, peans settled as hermits on Mount Carmel, in the land where the Savior had lived.

  • St. Aloysius Religious Education 5 Grade “VOCATIONS – the Game
    St. Aloysius Religious Education 5th grade “VOCATIONS – the game” Catechist Answers The game is played similar to Concentration. VOCATIONS is a card game where all of the cards are shuffled and are laid face down on a surface in orderly rows and columns, like so: All of the cards have a mate. Each turn, two cards are flipped over. If the cards do not match, they are both turned back face down. If the cards match, they are left face up and the person who made the match receives a point. With a VOCATIONS deck of cards there are 2 types of winning play: 1. the pair is considered the card with the picture and name of the religious order and the mission and founding of the religious order. 2. the pair is considered the card with the picture and name of the religious order and the picture and name of the religious order. 1, 2, 3 or 4 people can play VOCATIONS. More than 4 people can be divided into teams. Sisters of Life www.sistersoflife.org The Sisters of Life were an order first conceived of by Cardinal John Joseph O'Connor of New York, on a visit to the remains of a Nazi concentration camp at Dachau, Germany. Several years later, he decided to begin a new religious community in the Church, dedicated to the promotion of pro-life causes, specifically working for an end to abortion and euthanasia. He proclaimed his intentions in an newspaper article entitled “Help Wanted: Sisters of Life” in which he asked for women to consider joining.

  • Taking the Veil: Clothing and the Transformation of Identity
    Taking the Veil: Clothing and the Transformation of Identity Danielle Rives Centre d'anthropologie de Toulouse (E.H.E.S.S.) I spoke my name in religion. He asked me for my family name as well. I spoke it out loud without shame because In such an encounter, Speaking our name, When I want to renounce it for Him, Is like speaking the name of God.1 Most female monastic rules include a description of a ceremony for taking the veil: "Receiving the Habit," "Offering the Habit," "Ceremony for Veiling and Profession" – the variety of descriptions emphasizes the solemnity of a celebration in which postulants enter into a new estate. This essay analyzes both the symbolic and material aspects of this moment in which identity is transformed. Taking the veil is a rite of passage whose every aspect, including both gesture and speech, has been carefully formalized. This essay focuses first on the ceremony's script, in which clothing draws together the postulant, her family and friends, and the monastic community that welcomes her. I then turn to an analysis of the transformation of the novice's identity, examining both how the performance of the ordinary acts of monastic life 1 Angélique de Saint Jean Arnaud d'Andilly, Aux Portes des ténèbres. Relation de captivité (Paris: La Table Ronde, 2005), 30-1. 465 466 Danielle Rives reveals this new identity and how the nun inhabits this doubled personality. The traditional ceremony has origins dating back to the beginning of monastic institutions, but it assumed its present form during the Counter Reformation.

The unprecedented situation created by the coronavirus crisis has touched all of our lives. But Holy Mother Church will always remain close to her children despite the closing of the churches. The lenten liturgy reminds us all to keep our eyes on the eternal goal. Just like a true mother, when anxiety is at its height, she provides us with beautiful thoughts to meditate on… this was the case on Laetare Sunday 2020, when Julia O’Leary was accepted as a Novice of the Sisters, Slaves of the Im- Left: Sister Pia- Marie cuts the cake in celebration as Sister Katherine Maria, Sister Superior, and Sister Christopher Margaret, Prioress stand by.
