  • Opening and Blessings at Acu
    OPENING AND BLESSINGS AT ACU Australian Catholic University (ACU) recently consecrated the new St Thomas Aquinas Chapel and blessed the Catherine of Siena Centre on the Ballarat Campus. Bishop Paul Bird CSsR, presided over the consecration and blessed the facilities, together with ACU Campus Chaplain, Fr James Kerr and ACU Director of Identity and Mission, Fr Anthony Casamento CSMA. The Catherine of Siena Centre reflects both our rich past and exciting future. The Centre is a combination of four heritage houses, which still have their original frontages facing Ripon Street in order to keep in character with the neighbourhood and there is a very modern façade fronting the Campus. Morton Dunn Architects are responsible for the innovative design and the works were carried out by Page Constructions. The end result is an extremely functional space for the Schools of Education, Arts and Theology and Philosophy. The building is named after St Catherine of Siena, a teacher in the Dominican Order and a Scholastic philosopher and theologian. It is also named after Sister Catherine of Siena, a Sister of Mercy in Ballarat. The naming of this Centre represents both Catherine of Siena and Sister Catherine of Siena and the Mercy tradition over Fr James Kerr, Bishop Paul Bird CSsR and Fr Anthony Casamento one hundred years. CSMA. Photograph supplied by Ian Wilson Photography. Over the past twelve months the St Thomas of Aquinas Chapel at the Ballarat Campus has also undergone a major transformation. Central to the improvements are high, stained-glass windows that create a stunning effect by activating the space with coloured light throughout the day.

  • Saint Catherine of Siena
    SAINT CATHERINE OF SIENA Benedict XVI’s reflection on the great saint and Doctor of the Church in 2010. Our catechesis today deals with Saint Catherine of Siena, a Dominican tertiary, a woman of great holiness and a Doctor of the Church. Catherine’s spiritual teachings are centered on our union with Christ, the bridge between earth and heaven. Her own virginal entrustment to Christ the Bridegroom was reflected in her celebrated visions. Catherine’s life also shows us the importance of the spiritual maternity exercised by so many women in every age. From this great saint let us learn to grow in holiness, love for the Lord and fidelity to his body, the Church. Dear Brothers and Sisters, Today I would like to speak to you about a woman who has had an eminent role in the history of the Church. She is St. Catherine of Siena. The century in which she lived — the 14th — was a troubled time for the life of the Church and for the whole social fabric in Italy and Europe. However, even in the moments of greatest difficulty, the Lord does not cease to bless his People, raising men and women saints who stir minds and hearts, bringing about conversion and renewal. Catherine is one of these and still today she speaks to us and pushes us to walk courageously toward sanctity to be disciples of the Lord in an ever fuller sense. Born in Siena in 1347 to a very numerous family, she died in her native city in 1380. At 16, moved by a vision of St.

  • St. Francis De Sales Catholic School
    Durham Catholic District School Board St. Francis de Sales Catholic School Motto: “Inflame Our Hearts with Your Love” In the Beginning In 1893, Father Vincent McGivney called a meeting to start a Separate School Board in Pickering for the children of the parish families of St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church. The provisional Board of Trustees consisted of P.J. McCabe, Arthur O’Connor and Peter Kaiser. Two months later, a public meeting was called to announce the establishment of the Pickering Village Separate School Board. Soon afterwards, the Board was able to obtain the land next to the church to build St. Francis de Sales Catholic Elementary School. The land was originally the location of the church rectory until it burned down in 1913. A three-room school was built beside the church in 1953 at a cost of $35,100. It was the first school built in the area. The first principal was Mr. W.J. Cooper (now a retired superintendent) and the first teachers were Miss M. Weir, Miss M. Harrigan and Miss E. McGee. 1 In 1954, two classes were added at the cost of $25,000. 1959, the school board was able to purchase two and a half acres of land behind the school from Anglican Synod, and four new classrooms were built at a cost of $68,200. There was a significant increase from 1953 to 1965 in the number of students and teachers and in the school structure itself. The 1965–1966 staff consisted of nine teachers, one principal, one vice-principal, one secretary and one custodian.

  • St Teresa of Avila St Teresa of Avila (Also Known As St Teresa of Jesus) Was Born in 1518 in the Province of Avila, Spain
    StSt TeresaTeresa ofof AvilaAvila Feast day ~15th October St Teresa of Avila St Teresa of Avila (also known as St Teresa of Jesus) was born in 1518 in the province of Avila, Spain. Her mother was keen for Teresa to be a pious Christian and Teresa enjoyed learning about the lives of the saints. When Teresa was only fourteen, her mother died, and Teresa found comfort in devotion to Mary – Our Lady - as her spiritual mother. Teresa was sent to be educated by Augustinian nuns at Avila, but was often ill there and became worried about being a sinner. Then Teresa began to have visions, including sights of an angel and feeling the presence of Jesus. In 1535, Teresa entered a Carmelite convent, to become a nun. She was surprised to find that the other nuns were not keeping to the rules of religious life, and were entertaining many inappropriate visitors. Teresa decided to start a new, reformed Carmelite convent where the nuns would live a life of poverty, with stricter rules. This idea spread and other reformed convents opened. Then Teresa, with the help of St John of the Cross, established two houses for men who wanted to follow the same, reformed, way of life. Teresa and her friends encountered some opposition to their new ideas, but eventually the King supported her. In the last three years of her life, Teresa founded more reformed convents. She died in 1582 on the 15th of October – which is her feast day. In 1617 Teresa was made Patroness of Spain, and in 1622 she was canonised by Pope Gregory XV.

  • The Place to Be Sbcm.Co.Uk Bede’S News Senior College
    Bede’s News 30 April 2021 Theme of the Week HEADTEACHER’S MESSAGE My highlights of the week have included attending the Eucharistic Service, which was led by our Upper Third pupils and celebrating the feast day of St Catherine of Siena on Thursday. Enjoy your weekend Mrs S Pike Headteacher St Bede’s College The place to be sbcm.co.uk Bede’s News Senior College St Catherine of Siena Feast Day This Thursday, 29 April, was the Feast Day of Saint Catherine of Siena. In a normal year we would celebrate this together as a House, enjoying a service and reflection in our beautiful chapel. This year is, of course, not a normal year. Owing to bubbles we couldn’t meet as a House. Instead we looked to bring some joy and colour to a Thursday afternoon. In addition to a lovely video produced by our pupils and marvellously edited by Mrs Hibbert, pupils and staff from all years and Houses, including the Prep, were invited to take part in our festivities and activities at lunchtime. They wrote positive messages on a reflection wall and attached prayers onto the cage, to create a wall of yellow ribbon. You can see some of the wonderful messages of encouragement and compassion which came from our excellent pupils. With a crack of sunshine, some upbeat music, and plenty of orange squash, it created a joyous atmosphere and one which appropriately encapsulated the passionate life and work of Catherine of Siena. She was woman fiercely dedicated to the Church, willing to go against the orthodoxy of the time and always prepared to serve others.

  • St. Catherine of Siena Feast: April 29
    St. Catherine of Siena Feast: April 29 Facts Feast Day: April 29 St. Catherine of Siena was born during the outbreak of the plague in Siena, Italy on March 25, 1347. She was the 25th child born to her mother, although half of her brothers and sisters did not survive childhood. Catherine herself was a twin, but her sister did not survive infancy. Her mother was 40 when she was born. Her father was a cloth dyer. At the age of 16, Catherine's sister, Bonaventura, died, leaving her husband as a widower. Catherine's parents proposed that he marry Catherine as a replacement, but Catherine opposed this. She began fasting and cut her hair short to mar her appearance. Her parents attempted to resist this move, to avoid marriage, but they were unsuccessful. Her fasting and her devotion to her family, convinced them to relent and allow her to live as she pleased. Catherine once explained that she regarded her father as a representation of Jesus and her mother as Our Lady, and her brothers as the apostles, which helped her to serve them with humility. Despite Catherine's religious nature, she did not choose to enter a convent and instead she joined the Third Order of St. Dominic, which allowed her to associate with a religious society while living at home. Fellow Dominican sisters taught St. Catherine how to read. Meanwhile, she lived quietly, isolated within her family home. St. Catherine developed a habit of giving things away and she continually gave away her family's food and clothing to people in need.

  • St Catherine of Siena St Catherine of Siena
    StSt CatherineCatherine ofof SienaSiena Feast day ~29th April ‘Growing in goodness’ St Catherine of Siena was born on the 25th of March, 1347 in Siena, Italy. She was the 23rd child of Jacopo and Lapa Benincasa. Catherine was so cheerful that her family gave her the nickname “Euphrosyne”, which means“joy” in Greek. As Catherine grew, she began to have mystical experiences, seeing guardian angels when she was only six. Later, Catherine had a vision of St Dominic and decided to join his religious order – the Dominicans. Her parents wanted her to get married, but Catherine cut off her hair as a protest and her father then said she should be left in peace. When Catherine was 16, she became a Dominican tertiary and she spent the next three years in prayer and meditation. Catherine grew in goodness, and other people gathered around her, inspired by Catherine’s contemplative life. Although Catherine never had any formal education, she became well respected as a mystic and a spiritual writer. She also began to become involved in public affairs and in 1374 she visited Florence. Following this visit, Catherine began travelling with her followers throughout northern and central Italy advocating reform of the clergy and advising people that repentance and renewal could be done through “total love for God.” Some people objected to Catherine’s involvement in public affairs, but she continued to write letters, asking the Pope to return to Rome from Avignon, and pleading for the unity of the Church. As she grew, Catherine surrendered her life completely to Jesus, seeing this as a goal to be reached through time.

CATHERINE of SIENA: The Mystic 1 • ON FIRE with TRUTH THE LIFE & TEACHING of ST. CATHERINE of SIENA Catherine of Siena is the only lay woman ever proclaimed a Doctor of the Church. For most of her life, except when she was away on a mission of one kind or another, she stayed at home with her family in Siena. Born on March 25, 1347, she died at the age of 33 on April 29, 1380. One of the closest friends of Catherine most affected by her death was a young Sien- ese poet, Neri dei Pagliaresi. A single stanza from the elegy he wrote at the time of her death offers a vivid, intimate portrait of his much-missed friend: Tell me, who will save me now from an evil end? Who will preserve me from delusions? Who will guide me when I try to climb? Who will console me now in my distress? Who will ask me now: “Are you not well?” Who will persuade me that I shall not be damned?1 † ST.

  • ST. CATHERINE of SIENA ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH November 6, 2016—32Nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
    ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH November 6, 2016—32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time ALL ARE WELCOMED TO OUR PARISH! We are so pleased that you chose to celebrate with us this weekend. We warmly invite you to active participation in our liturgical celebration. Please feel free to approach one of our Ministers of Hospitality if you are in need of any assistance. No matter what your present status in the Catholic Church, your current family or marital situation, your past or present religious affiliation; no matter what your personal history, age, background, sexual orientation, gender, race, or color; no matter what your self-image or self-esteem: YOU are invited, welcomed, accepted, loved, and respected at St. Catherine of Siena Church in Ithaca, New York. During November, we will spend time at each of our liturgies exploring vocations: religious orders, the priesthood and deaconate, lay apostolates and lay ministry, and marriage. We hope that these presentations will help us all to support vocational awareness and to consider more deeply what Jesus wants of us. Let us pray for those discerning their vocations. THE VOCATION OF MARRIAGE A vocation is the committed state of life that God calls us to. We may be called to be married, to be single, to become a priest or deacon, or to be a member of a religious community. All of these vocational choices are ways in which we serve God and one another. Two of these choices, married life and the priesthood or deaconate, are also sacraments in the Church. What does the Church teach about sacramental marriage? Within marriage, the couple’s relationship uniquely expresses the unbreakable bond of love between Christ and his people.
