  • Saint Sebastian
    Educating the Youth to Live the Mass Experts from the Manual of the Eucharistic Crusade of the Apostleship of Prayer Published in 1962 by the Central Office of the Eucharistic Crusade, Rome (Edited by Fr. Boulet) NOTE ON THE SPIRITUAL LIFE OF CHILDREN Among children who have kept their innocence of heart and who live in the love of Christ, experience testifies that there are always to be found some who outstrip the ordinary ways of the spiritual life and who enjoy a special familiarity with Christ. Such children, who doubtless act under the influence of the Holy Spirit and who are called to a higher spiritual life, need particular help. Children of this age who are specially gifted with grace can be recognized as such without much difficulty, since ordinarily they are not yet capable of so feigning an authentic interior life. The signs of a deeper spiritual life in children are as follows: a knowledge of God and of the mysteries of faith in which simplicity and profundity are joined in a wonderful way; promptitude to make sacrifices, especially when not seen by others; sincerity and truthfulness; a reverent way of speaking about God and Christ; a certain facility in meditating or praying in their own words. These signs ought to be joined to a serious desire of doing good and exercising virtues (obedience, diligence, charity, etc.). Where these signs are found, Directors must see if perhaps a disposition and a vocation to greater progress in the spiritual life is present. These children should in the first place be exhorted to fulfill the program of the Crusade, to do everything out of love for Jesus and as perfectly as they can.

  • 005-Santa Susanna
    (005/11) Santa Susanna Santa Susanna is an 15th century monastic and titular church. It is on the Piazza San Bernardo, on the Via XX Settembre just north-west of the Piazza della Repubblica and its metro station in the rione Trevi. The dedication is to St Susanna, and the full official title is Santa Susanna alle Terme di Diocleziano. (1) History A church at Santa Susanna commemorates the place where, according to St. Jerome, a young Christian woman was martyred for refusing to worship Rome's pagan gods. Around the year 290 Susanna was residing with her father, Christian presbyter Gabinus, right next door to her saintly uncle Pope Caius (283-296), and in the shadows of the Emperor Diocletian's (284-305) immense baths. After refusing to break a vow of virginity to marry her insistent suitor Maximianus Galerius (none other than the Emperor's adopted son and heir), Susanna also balked at offering a pagan sacrifice, and was beheaded in her own home. The church of Santa Susanna is one of the oldest titles of Rome. The first Christian place of worship was built here in the 4th century. It was probably the titulus of Pope Caius (283-296). The early Christian church was built on the remains of three Roman villas, and was located immediately outside the fence of the Baths of Diocletian and close to the Servian walls. (8) First church By tradition, the church was built in 330, and named San Caio after the owner of the first chapel. In 590, the church was rededicated to St Susan because of her growing popularity.

  • The Baptismal Font
    The Baptismal Font. THE mode of administering the Sacrament of Holy Baptism has varied from time to time and, in consequence, the vessel for .holding the baptismal water has not always taken the same form. There seems little doubt that the first baptisms took place in the open air and were performed by affusion. The earliest evidence we have in fresco or sculpture shows the candidate standing in the water, while the baptiser pours water over his head. In a fresco in the cemetery of St Callistus, Rome (circa 200 A.D.) a nude boy is represented as standing in the water up to his ankles, while water is being poured over him. In time the running stream gave place to fonts of a kind and these appear at first to have been simply wooden tubs.(I) Pope Caius (283-296) is said to have baptised St Claudius super pelvim ligneum. In the Cathedral at Tournai, Belgium, there are some old tapestries showing three fonts, two of which are depicted as wooden tubs, showing both staves and hoops. Incidentally the figures therein are represented as sitting or kneeling. In Scotland, there is no evidence that fonts were used in the earlier days of the Celtic missionaries. There is every likelihood that baptisms like preachings took place in the open air and that many of the wells, which still bear the names of these early pioneers, were used for this purpose. Near the Church of - St Monans, Fife, is a well still known as the Christening Well ". Probably in later days water would be drawn from it for the Sacrament.

  • According to Antique Historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire Or the Federation of Nations Was Founded Around 3660 BC
    Summary DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA According to antique historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire or the federation of nations was founded around 3660 BC. The Scythians started to colonize the Balkans around 1800 BC and this mission ended around 1500 BC. Around 1000 BC the Kimmerian Scythians attacked Italy where they formeded their territories. The oldest Scythian Balkan state was Thracia which was created by the Pedases people around 3500 BC, and the Egyptian sources are also mentioning it as an enemy state around 2000 BC. Around 1600 BC a powerful cen- tral Balkan state was created and its name was Dar- dania. The Egyptian sources of 1452 BC from the period of the reign of Amenophis II and of 1240 from the period of the reign of Ramses II are men- tioning the names of Scythian Balkan nations: the Moesi, the Dardanians, the Thracian Pedases, and the Odrysae people. The Scythian Docleatae belonged to the Parthian Scythians; part of them descended to the Balkans in the second half of the second millennium BC. 649 Vojislav D. Nikčević: DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA They created two cities around 1040 BC: Doclea and Scodra. On the territory of today’s Montenegro the Docleatae founded three cities: Medun, Risinium (Risan) and Budua (Budva). In VII and VI century BC the powerful Kingdom of Pontus of the Aorses created its federal unit in the middle Dalmatia and the Scythian Balkan federation known as the Kingdom of the Danube Scythians ruled by the Scytho-Sarmatian Autariatae. This state-alliance included the Kingdom of Pannonia with its capital Sirmium, the alliance con- sisted of the Veneti and the Liburnians, the Kingdom of Aorses, kingdoms of Dardania and Moesia and the agreed province of two kingdoms – Dacia with Trivalia (Praevaliana, future Praevalitana) as well as Scythia Minor.

Edited for semi-modern English by Calvin George A note by the editor It has been my pleasure to have edited this book to implement semi-modern orthography in order to make it more readable for modern readers. It could be edited further, as my part was not done professionally, but rather as a labor of love. To someone who has not seen the original, it may seem that this semi-updated spelling edition is still very hard to read, with all the inconsistent capitalizations and verbs that end in -th and -st and some unrecognized words that were left as is; however, I believe this edition is a step in the right direction, and would greatly aid someone who might desire to pick up where I left off. I was also privileged to have edited the original Spanish edition in a similar fashion as well.

PHILIP DE LAS CASAS was born in the city of Mexico. Brought up piously, Philip at first showed little care for the pious teaching of his parents, but at last resolved to enter the Reformed Franciscan Convent of Santa Barbara at Pueblo. He was not yet weaned from the world and soon left the novitiate. Grieved at the inconstancy of his son, de las Casas sent him to the Philippine Islands on a business errand. In vain did Philip seek to satisfy his heart with pleasure. He could not but feel that God called him to a religious life. Gaining courage by prayer, he entered the Franciscan Convent of Our Lady of the Angels at Manila, and persevered, taking his vows in 1594. The richest cargo that he could have sent to Mexico would not have gratified his pious father as much as the tidings that Philip was a professed friar.
