Last Sunday we heard about Jesus calming the storm, the first of sábados de 10am-2pm four miracles that Jesus performs in the vicinity of the Sea of Grupo de jovenes: Galilee. Each of these four miracle stories offers us a glimpse at TBD Jesus’ power.

In each story, the request for healing is itself a Dial/Marque: 1‐646‐558‐8656 courageous act of faith, and yet very different circumstances are Meeting ID: 279 484 3961# represented by the lives of each suffering person. Password/contraseña: 341895# Jairus is described as a synagogue official, a man of considerable standing in the Jewish community. Distraught over his daughter’s Something Funny/ Algo Gracioso poor health, he approaches Jesus and asks him to heal her. Although Mark doesn’t provide many details, we can imagine that his (Job 8:21 “He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, daughter has been ill for some time and that her condition is and your lips with shouting.”) deteriorating. As Jesus leaves with Jairus, Mark describes a second person who seeks healing from Jesus, a woman with a hemorrhage. This woman secretly touches Jesus from behind and is immediately cured. In response, Jesus turns and asks who touched him. Jesus’ disciples, always a little clueless in Mark’s Gospel, help us envision the scene. The crowds are pushing in on Jesus, and yet he, knowing that power has gone out of him, asks who touched him. The woman could have remained anonymous, yet at Jesus’ question she steps forward and acknowledges what she has done. Jesus responds by acknowledging her as a model of faith and sends her away in peace. At this point, we can imagine Jairus’s impatience with Jesus; his daughter is dying and Jesus hasn’t helped him yet. As if to build a sense of urgency, messengers suddenly arrive and confirm Jairus’s worst fear: his daughter has died. Jesus curiously ignores their message and reassures Jairus. When they arrive at Jairus’s home, they find family and friends mourning the girl’s death. Jesus enters the room of the dead girl, takes her by the hand, and instructs her to arise. Jairus’s faith in Jesus has not been in vain; his daughter is restored to life. 13th Sunday of Ordinary Time / 13 domingo de tiempo ordinario 2021 (Year B/ Ano B) The contrasts between Jairus and the woman with the hemorrhage are stark and revealing. One is a man, the other is a woman. One is a Special Congratulations to our public official, an important person in the community. The other is a woman who has lost everything to find a cure to a condition that Graduates: separated her from the community. One approaches Jesus publicly. The other approaches Jesus secretly. Yet in each case, faith leads them to seek out Jesus in their time of need. Middle/ Junior High School Michael Ihedioha The Gospel concludes with Jesus’ instructions to remain silent about this miracle. This is typical of Mark’s Gospel and is Chinazaekpere Ruth Ihezuo sometimes referred to as the messianic secret.

  • Giovanni Merlini E La Congregazione CPPS
    John Merlini and the Missionaries of the Precious Blood in the United States Barry Fischer, C.PP.S. Introduzione Certainly one of the most important developments in Don Giovanni Merlini’s long tenure as Moderator General was the expansion of the Congregation into the United States. The decision to send missionaries to America, and the first foundations there, began already in the time of his predecessor, Don Biago Valentini, when Fr. Francis de Sales Brunner and his little band of priests and seminarians were dispatched to America in 1843. But the crucial development came during the years of Merlini’s general direction. It was during those years that the Mission in America had to come to terms with circumstances very different from those found in Europe, and had to adapt the vision and rule of the C.PP.S. to them. The theme of the relationship of the Venerable Merlini and the United States, then, is important to understanding the achievement of the expansion of the Congregation into toally new circumstances. I will develop my relazione according to the following scheme. In keeping with the subtitle of this convegno, “Tempi e personalità”, I will first say a few words about the early contact of Ven. Merlini with Fr. Brunner, the pioneer and founder of the new Mission. Understanding something of their early contact helps us understand better their future relationship, upon which would be built decisions about the course of development of the American mission. The “personalità” therefore is not without importance. 1 Next I will try to describe briefly the situation Fr.

For many dioceses there were two days to which the Office of the Precious Blood was assigned, the office being in both cases the same. The reason was this: the office was at first granted to the Fathers of the Most Precious Blood only. Later, as one of the offices of the Fridays of Lent, it was assigned to the Friday after the fourth Sunday in Lent in some dioceses, including, by decision of the Fourth Provincial Council of Baltimore (1840), those in the United States. When Pope Pius IX went into exile at Gaeta in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (1849), he had as his companion Father Giovanni Merlini, third superior general of the Fathers of the Most Precious Blood. After they had arrived at Gaeta, Don Merlini suggested that the pope make a vow to extend the feast of the Precious Blood to the entire Church, if he would again recover possession of the Papal States.

  • OTTAWA, CANADA Saint Eugène Et Saint Paul Yvon Beaudoin, O.M.I
    Vie Oblate life TOME SOIXANTE-SEPT / 3 VOLUME SIXTY-SEVEN / 3 2008 OTTAWA, CANADA Saint Eugène et saint Paul Yvon Beaudoin, o.m.i. SUMMARY – The Pauline Year 2008-2009 celebrates the second millennium of the birth of the great Apostle of the Nations. It is an occasion to recall Saint Eugene’s knowledge of, and devotion to Saint Paul. References to the Apostle’s writings date back to Eugene’s seminary days in Paris. His visits to Rome, specially in 1825-1826 shortly after the destruction by fire of Saint Paul’s Basilica, and in 1854 for the dedication of the newly rebuilt church, were occasions for Saint Eugene to express his fervour towards the Apostle whom he considered as a particular model and protector of missionaries. The A. recalls how in 1850, after meeting with the Bishop of Marseilles, the Bishop of Tulle exclaimed before his clergy: “Gentlemen, I have just seen Paul!” En cette année paulinienne voulue par le pape Benoît XVI pour commémorer le deuxième millénaire de la naissance de l’Apôtre des Nations, il nous paraît opportun de souligner la vénération que lui portait notre Fondateur et qui s’exprimait entre autres dans ses nombreuses citations des écrits de saint Paul, de même que dans la ferveur qui marquait ses visites aux lieux pauliniens lors de ses voyages à Rome. «J’ai vu Paul ...» Mgr Léonard Berteaud, évêque de Tulle de 1842 à 1878, a dit à ses vicaires généraux, après avoir rencontré l’évêque de Marseille les 15-17 août 1850: «Messieurs, j’ai vu Paul1».

  • Formation Manual I, 12-14-05.Qxd
    Mary, Woman of the New Covenant Robert Schreiter, C.PP.S. Mary in the Life of the C.PP.S. Mary has always played an important role in the life of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood. Don Beniamino Conti has already explained the place of Our Lady of the Precious Blood—or the Madonna of the Chalice, as she is also known—in the mission preaching of St. Gaspar and the early Missionaries. In the course of the Congregation’s history, Mary has been honored under a variety of titles. We know, for example, of the importance of the title “Mary, Help of Christians” to the Venerable Giovanni Merlini. For Fr. Francis Brunner, the veneration of Mary was promoted under the titles of Mother of God and the Sorrowful Mother. Fr. Brunner set up a shrine to the Sorrowful Mother in northwest Ohio in 1850, a shrine which con- tinues under the care of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood this day. In recent years, other images of Mary have been cre- ated. Perhaps most notably is that of Mary, Our Lady of the Precious Blood as “Qaloq’Lajna’ Aj Uk’Tesinel,” her title among the Q’ecqchí in Guatemala. In Q’ecqchí ritu- al, the sacred cacao drink is served to the chief members of the community, and then to everyone, by the young women of the community.

  • The Letters of St. Gaspar Del Bufalo 1786
    The Letters of St. Gaspar del Bufalo 1786 - 1837 !2 FORWORD In 1968 the Italian Province of the Society of Most Precious Blood published the first volume of the Lettere di S. Gaspare Del Bufalo. This represented the work of Father Luigi Contegiacomo, C.PP.S. Subsequently, Volumes II1 and II2 were published containing in all 484 letters of Saint Gaspar. The work of Father Luigi continues on the letters and other writings of our Founder still contained in the General Archives of the Society. The Parent Corporation of the American Provinces of the Society of the Precious Blood agreed to sponsor the translation into English and publication of the Italian work. A committee was formed consisting of Fathers Ralph Bushell, Lawrence Cyr and James Froelich. Father Raymond Cera agreed to undertake the translation of the Lettere into English. The work of translating the Italian volumes published to date is now finisheFr. Whereas the Italian publication presents the letters in groups according to the persons addressed, we have decided to present the letters according to their chronological origin. As a consequence of this decision the letters are being presented not in bound form but in a looseleaf format. Thus future translations of letters yet to be published can be inserted into the present binders according to the date of their origin.
