  • The Holy See
    The Holy See SPEECH OF THE HOLY FATHER JOHN PAUL II TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN THE GENERAL CHAPTER OF THE ORDER OF MINIMS Monday, 3 July 2000 Dear Brothers of the Order of Minims! 1. I affectionately welcome you and am grateful for the visit you wanted to pay me at the beginnning of your General Chapter. I cordially greet Fr Giuseppe Fiorini Morosini, your Superior General, the Chapter fathers and the delegations of nuns and tertiaries who will be taking part in the first part of this important meeting, as well as the religious and lay people who form the three orders of the religious family founded by St Francis of Paola. I thank the Lord with all of you for the good accomplished in your long and praiseworthy history of service to the Gospel. My thoughts turn in particular to those difficult times for the Church when St Francis of Paola was engaged in carrying out a reform which drew to a new way of perfection all who were "moved by the desire for greater penance and love of the Lenten life" (IV Rule, chap. 2). 2. Inspired by apostolic goals, he founded the Order of Minims, a clerical religious institute with solemn vows, planted like "a good tree in the field of the Church militant" (Alexander VI) to produce worthy fruits of penance in the footsteps of Christ, who "emptied himself, taking the form of a servant" (Phil 2: 7). Following the founder's example, your religious family "intends to bear a special daily witness to Gospel penance by a Lenten life, that is, by total conversion to God, deep participation in the expiation of Christ and a call to the Gospel values of detachment from the world, the primacy of the spirit over matter and the urgent need for penance, which entails the practice of charity, love of prayer and physical ascesis" (Constitutions, art.

  • MARGARET of the MOST HOLY SACRAMENT (Margaret Parigot, 1619-1648) Venerable (D)
    MARGARET OF THE MOST HOLY SACRAMENT (Margaret Parigot, 1619-1648) Venerable (D) Margaret was born at Beaune (Cote d'Or) on Feb;. 6, 1619. From her earliest childhood she gave proof of extraordinary virtue: she was only seven years old, in fact, when she would spend entire nights at prayer, even during the winter; moreover, she cared for the sick in the hospice and did not hesitate to kiss their wounds. After the death of her parents, when she was twelve and a half years old, she asked to be admitted among the Discalced Carmelite nuns of her native city (1630). Her youthful age not withstanding; her request was granted, thanks to the reputation that she enjoyed. Critical studies leave no doubt about this fact. The young postulant thus entered into an exceptional environment, one profoundly permeated by the most authentic traditions of Carmel, among them a touching devotion to the Child Jesus. This devotion had its origins in two sources: the teaching of Cardinal de Berulle, and the practices of the Spanish foundresses of the French Carmel. Peter de Berulle, during the course of a trip to Spain, made in 1604 in order to study the introduction of the Teresian Carmel into France, had had occasion to meet with the protagonists of devotion to the infancy of Christ. At Alcalá de Henares he had been able to talk with the lay brother Francis of the Child Jesus, whose role in the development of this devotion was to be so important. Moreover, the cardinal had met the provincial of Castile, Joseph of Jesus Mary, the admirer and future biographer of the holy lay brother.

  • NICCSJ Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel 2021
    NICCSJ 2021 Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel (Feast Day, July 16th) Mount Carmel is the biblical site where the prophet Elijah battled with the 450 priests of Baal, which led to their defeat and ruin. It was also where Elijah sent his servant seven times to the mountaintop to look for rain after years of drought which ended as he proclaimed (1 Kings 18:19-44). The title of Our Lady of Carmel can be traced back to the hermits (Carmelites) who used to live in the renowned and blessed Mount Carmel. These pious and austere Carmelites prayed in expectation of the advent of a Virgin-Mother. Thousands of years later, our Lady, Mary appeared to St. Simon Stock, a Carmelite priest, in the exact same location on July 16th 1251. In this appearance of Mary, she is known as Our Lady of Mount Carmel. She appeared holding Jesus as a child in one arm and on her other arm, a Scapular. She promised that all those who wear Scapular and follow Christ faithfully will be brought by Our Mother Mary into heaven at their deaths. Praying the Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel has been an age-long practice through which Christians have entrusted their intentions to God through the powerful intercessions of our Mother Mary. Let us continue to share in the maternal love our Mother Mary by praying this Novena with devotion and attention. Amen Thursday July 8th to Friday July 16th, 2021 Modality: Daily at 8.00PM: • Sundays & Saturdays through Community Zoom- https://us02web.zoom.us/my/niccsj, 1D- 9206647431, Passcode- 424258 • Monday to Friday through Community Prayer Line: Dial in #- +18482203100; ID #-06122005# Steps: 1.

  • Introduction the Other Voice: Atlantic Nuns
    Introduction The Other Voice: Atlantic Nuns In the early eighteenth century as fleets of European ships navigated the currents of the Atlantic, five Capuchin nuns boarded a Spanish vessel at the Port of Cadiz. They were about to embark on a remark- able journey that would literally take them across two continents and an ocean in between. This was a watershed moment for Europe: the Spanish War of Succession (1701–14) was still ongoing and the decay- ing Spanish Empire was fast yielding to more powerful nations such as Britain and Holland.1 In these turbulent times, an amazing voice emerged from a woman who documented the compelling story of the foundation of a new convent in Lima, Peru. María Rosa, the mother abbess of the future Capuchin con- vent in Peru, wrote a unique and fascinating manuscript, originally titled, “Account of the Journey of Five Capuchin Nuns.” It was later polished and edited by another nun, Josepha Victoria, in 1722.2 María Rosa held many things in common with other religious early modern European writers: she was brought up under the strict regulations of a Post-Tridentine doctrine and, until her journey, she had lived her life within the cloistered walls of a convent. What makes this docu- ment unique is that the sisters’ lives were turned upside-down when they accepted the challenge of leaving Madrid and traveling to the New World to establish a convent in Peru. Their legacy is a riveting travel narrative of adventure on the high seas, pirates, violent storms, and the crossing of the Andes.

Known in approximately 500 Latin manuscripts, far more than Bonaventura’s Meditationes vitae Christi, this was an extremely popular devotional work, with translations appearing in Middle High German, Middle Low German, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish, Polish, Swedish, Danish, and English. Although most manuscripts attributed it to Bonaventura, the original Stimulus Amoris was the work of the thirteenth-century Franciscan friar Giacomo da Milano. His text is a series of spiritual exercises for meditation, leading to a progressive emotional engagement with the Passion, the goal being a mystical identification with Christ (DBI).
