  • Help Us Name Our Spiritual Baby Namesakes, If Our Baby Is a Boy! (See Other Side for Our Girl Namesakes)
    Help Us Name our Spiritual Baby Namesakes, if our baby is a boy! (see other side for our girl namesakes) St. Gerard Majella Feast Day: October 16 Miracles were reported and attributed to Gerard throughout his life, including restora- tion of a boy's life after he fell from a high cliff. His last recorded miracle is one that many credit toward his becoming the patron of expectant mothers. Shortly before his death, Majella encountered a young girl. He had dropped his handkerchief and she set out to return it, only to be told to keep it. Gerard told her she "may need it someday." Years after Gerard's passing, the young girl became married and with child. She unex- pectedly went into labor and was on the verge of losing her baby. She called for Majel- la's handkerchief to be applied to her. Almost immediately, her pain abated and she proceeded to give birth to a healthy child, something very rare during that time. St. Gerard Majella is patron of expectant mothers. St. Joseph Solemnity: March 19 Joseph was a carpenter, a working man. He wasn't rich for when he took Jesus to the Temple to be circumcised and Mary to be purified he offered the sacrifice of two turtledoves or a pair of pigeons, allowed only for those who could not afford a lamb. Despite his humble work and means, Joseph came from a royal lineage. St. Joseph whose was chosen by God our Father to be the foster father of His Son and the most chaste spouse of His Holy Mother Mary and so dutifully and virtuously fulfilled his role in serving God.

  • Maria Alexandra Monteiro, MA Independent Scholar/ Msc with Thesis Medieval and Renaissance History, Porto, Portugal
    Maria Alexandra Monteiro, MA Independent Scholar/ MSc with thesis medieval and renaissance history, Porto, Portugal I received my BIntRel degree in International Relations at Lusíada University of Porto and a few years later I was accepted at the University of Porto. There, I was able to obtain my MSc with thesis in medieval and renaissance studies (MHMR). My thesis was performed on the biography of Antão Martins de Chaves, bishop of Porto in the late XV century. Under the tutelage of PhD Maria Cristina Almeida e Cunha Alegre, I attended lessons on medieval paleography. My core personal interest is to study biographies from ecclesiastics of note and understand how they influenced the society of their time. Phone Number: +351 225094845 Email: [email protected] Page 2 Pantaleon or Panteleimon – A most noble physician As information about the life of Saint Pantaleon is entangled with tradition, it difficult to distinguish myth from facts. Nevertheless, according to several sources, Pantaleon was born c.AD 275, son of the rich pagan Eustorgius of Nicomedia. His name means “a lion in everything”. Later he would be renamed Pantaleímon (from the Greek) by Saint Hermolaus, meaning “all-compassionate” 1. His mother, Saint Eubula, wished him to be instructed in Christianity, but after her death he was sent by his father to study medicine under the famous physician Euphrosinus, probably in Alexandria2, where students were supposed to follow Hippocratic and Galenic theories. The young man proved to be so proficient at his craft that he came to the attention of the Roman Emperor Galerius (AD 284 – 305)3, who appointed him as royal physician as soon as he finished his studies.

  • Saints Related to Young People
    Saints Related to Young People Thomas Aquinas—Academics Thomas was a gentle teacher who believed faith and reason when used wisely would enable all humanity to know and love God as the angels. He studied in Paris from 1245-1248 under Saint Albert the Great, then accompanied Albertus to Cologne. Here he received the nickname “dumb ox,” though he is now considered a Doctor of the Church, and one of the most intelligent philosophers of all time. Vitus—Against Oversleeping For obscure reasons, some 16th century Germans believed they could obtain a year's good health by dancing before the statue of Saint Vitus on his feast day. This dancing developed almost into a mania, and was confused with chorea, the nervous condition later known as Saint Vitus' Dance, the saint being invoked against it. Francis of Assisi—Animals, Catholic Action It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching. Son of a rich cloth merchant. Misspent youth. Street brawler and some-time soldier. During an imprisonment in Perugia, he had a conversion experience, including a reported message from Christ calling him to leave this worldly life. Upon release, Francis began taking his religion seriously. Christopher—Drivers His fame derives from the pious legend of him being a "Christ-bearer" (= Christopher). He was a powerfully built man who wandered the world in search of novelty and adventure. He came upon a hermit who lived beside a dangerous stream and served others by guiding them to safe places to cross. George—Boy Scouts Several stories have been attached to Saint George, the best known of which is the Golden Legend.
