IN PRAYER with BLESSED ALBERTO MARVELLI Rimini St IN PRAYER WITH BLESSED ALBERTO MARVELLI Rimini St. Augustine Church April 26, 2013 On the threshold of this month dedicated in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we the devotees of Blessed Alberto gathered together in prayer with our beloved patron, to ask for the constant intercession of Our Lady for our needs, the intentions of the Holy Father Francis I, of the whole Catholic Church and for the increase of the priestly and religious vocation in particular. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 1 - THE FIAT OF MARY A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Luke (1, 26-38) In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And coming to her, he said, “Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you.” But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” But Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?” And the angel said to her in reply, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. And behold, Elizabeth, your relative, has also conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren; for nothing will be impossible for God.” Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her. From the Writings of Alberto Marvelli Turn to Mary, because through her virginal blood formed the holy flesh and virgin blood of Jesus Christ. Through her virginal goodness and love, created virginal souls in this world and they become evangelizers and bearers of Christ in the failing world. Mary’s fiat to the Father is like a magnet that gathers all the goodness and splendours, whom God created: through her fiat the Wisdom become flesh, by her fiat, her maternal and holy womb receives the seed that will give us all the Bread of Life, and Life itself, and with her fiat Jesus Christ gave us redemption through His passion in Gethsemane. May we learn to become obedient and holy children of God, to say our each other’s fiat as to unveil the will of God, in our lives and to be sustained with His grace. May we reap and enjoy the beauty of His goodness». (Notebook of the spiritual exercices) Intercessory Prayers - Lord, help us to follow the holy and pious example of Alberto, help us to say our fiat with humility and become instruments of your salvation. We pray. Through the intercession of Alberto, Lord hear us. - Lord, we pray for our priests, grant your grace to accompany them in their priestly vocation. Make them humble servants committed and holy in their priestly ministries, as well of being witnesses and educators of the Catholic faith, in Christ Jesus we pray. Through the intercession of Alberto, Lord hear us. - Help us O Lord, by Your grace and mercy, grant us holy and priestly vocations, we beseech you to bless our seminarians and religious novices by Your grace, to be able to sustain them in their religious vocations. We pray. Alberto leads the Rosary prayer Through the intercession of Alberto, Lord hear us. Prayer Lord, when you consider our venial and mortal sins, remember the purity of your mother! Lord, when you see our impurities, Gaze upon the radiant holiness and virginity of the holy woman who gave you life! Lord, when you stare upon our infidelities, Be mindful of the petitions of the Mother, who bore you in her womb! (From the Liturgy Ethiopian) Pause for silent and personal reflections 2 - THE MAGNIFICAT OF MARY A reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Luke (1, 46-56) And Mary said: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. For he has looked upon his handmaid’s lowliness; behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed. The Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name. His mercy is from age to age to those who fear him. He has shown might with his arm, dispersed the arrogant of mind and heart. He has thrown down the rulers from their thrones but lifted up the lowly. The hungry he has filled with good things; the rich he has sent away empty. He has helped Israel his servant, remembering his mercy, according to his promise to our fathers, to Abraham and to his descendants forever.” Mary remained with her about three months and then returned to her home. From the Writings of Alberto Marvelli “Contemplating and writing my letters from second floor, I behold the captivating beauty of the beach, deep blue sea with the flies in sailing, dinghies, and bathers enjoying the nature. As I see it now, everything’s seems like before, I could still recall the days when you are here, and we are diving from the blowfly. Yeah, the sea looks the oddly same, but when I gaze upon the panoramic view of nature around me, I saw how things have much changed: the beach without beach huts some either burned or destroyed and some were still used as refugee’s shelter. The magnificent Turkish Villas were reduced to a pile of rubble; other beautiful houses were either utterly destroyed and or pillaged. Windows were left without frames, like an empty eye sockets of a dying man! The glorious magnificent gardens now unkempt, the bridges connecting villages and towns were blown; the bombed streets were left with holes and dust! What a grotesque big difference has become of our beloved Rimini!” (from a Letter to Marilena) (Taken from the memoirs of Alberto, September 1944, when the Allied Forces passed the Gothic Line, leaving the city utterly destroyed. Out of these tragedies, his faith did not falter and moreover Mary’s aid is proven with him). “The Immaculate Virgin Mary is a masterpiece branch, a hidden masterpiece, a masterpiece of grace, a masterpiece of fullness. She is full of virtues and holiness, and we are weak and empty. She is filled with grace and love, and we are full of hatred and indifference. See and look up: If we gaze upon the sky, we cannot reject the Divine, that draws us to Mary, and for that, She will pour unto us divine graces, as the Mother of Grace, our Mediatrix of Grace”. (from Spiritual Notebook) Prayer to Mary - Blessed Virgin Mary, you who glorified the One, who fills the hungry, succour each one of us to look up, like your servant Alberto aid us in becoming advocate of people’s development, bearer of justice between nations, as to become servant of peace among all men. Hail Mary... - Blessed Virgin Mary, when you sung the Magnificat, you are aware of the contradicting foreseeable future around you. Like your servant Alberto, help us not to let our hopes be contradicted by unknown and foreseeable events, and grant us grace to have faith and hope as you have. Hail Mary ... - Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of love and praise, enable us to look upon our daily lives as a prayer and work of Magnificat, to rejoice and praise with you all the small and big things, the joys and the pains the Lord has given in our midst. Hail Mary ... - Blessed Virgin Mary, as we pray for each one us, for the universal Church, for the Diocese of Rimini, and for our Archdiocese of _________. You who became the Mother of Joy, we pray that same joy spring forth for all, instilling us with confidence, hope, and peace. Hail Mary ... Pause for silent and personal reflections 3 - “THEY HAVE NO WINE” A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. John (2, 1-11) “On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding. When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” [And] Jesus said to her, “Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come.” His mother said to the servers, “Do whatever he tells you.” Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus told them, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, “Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.” So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, “Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now.” Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him.

  • Interiority and Spirituality Alberto Marvelli
    Framework of salesian holiness: interiority and spirituality Alberto Marvelli Elisabetta Casadei Who is Alberto Marvelli? A young man who lived "a life in motion" and died at the age of 28. A passionate educator; a mechanical engineer of the automotive manufacturer Fiat; a young sportsman who loved cycling and mountain climbing; an "honest citizen", who during World War II was not afraid to risk his life to save many others; a politician by vocation, commissioner for reconstruction, highly regarded even by his political opponents. His "adventure" in a sentence: "Love never rests" If we were to sum up his whole life in one sentence, we could perhaps summarize it with a note found in one of his spiritual notebooks: "Love never rests"1. This is an ''adventure of the Spirit" that Alberto Marvelli lived in his short life. A life in love, lived in continuous desire to transform it into a continuous act of love: "My life shall be an act of love"2, he wrote in his Diary. However, the journey of the Spirit, like any other journey, needs a direction; and Alberto, at the age of twenty, when about to finish University studies and had already been an educator in the Oratory Don Bosco in Rimini for many years, felt called by the Spirit to give a more specific direction to his life and - I would say - an acceleration. He writes in his Diary: “To make a point”. This statement is often used in the Navy (and also in other fields) to orient oneself. But much can be said with good reason for the spiritual life.

The Marian Thoughts of Pope Benedict XVI September 2007 Pope's Address at Prayer Vigil in Loreto – September 1, 2007 Lord Jesus, this evening I would like to speak to you, making my own the inner attitude and trusting abandonment of that young woman who, two-thousand years ago, said her "yes" to the Father who chose her to be your Mother. The Father chose her because she was docile and obedient to his will. Like her, like little Mary, each one of you, dear young friends, should say to God with faith: "Here I am; let it be done to me according to your word." … Look at the young Mary; the Angel proposed something truly inconceivable to her: participation, in the most involving way possible, in the greatest of God's plans, the salvation of humanity. Facing this proposal, Mary, as we heard in the Gospel, was distressed for she realized the smallness of her being before the omnipotence of God; and she asked herself: "How is it possible? Why should it be me?".

  • In Continuation with Reflection That We Are Making, This Month I Would Like to Focus on the Aspect of Compassion
    XXV/5 October 2017 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My dearest Sisters, Loving greetings from the provincial house Bangalore! In continuation with reflection that we are making, this month I would like to focus on the aspect of Compassion. We shall do it with the help of “REJOICE!” A letter to consecrated men and women, A message from the teachings of Pope Francis The restlessness of love As living icons of the motherhood and of the closeness to the Church, we go out to those who are waiting for the Word of consolation and we bend down with motherly love and fatherly spirit towards the poor and the weak. The Pope invites us not to privatise love, but with the restlessness of the seeker: “Tirelessly seeking the good of the other, of the beloved”. We are called now, as the Church, to go outside in order to arrive at the margins, geographic, urban and existential – the margins of the mystery of sin, pain, injustice and misery –, to the hidden places of the soul where each person experiences the joys and sufferings of life. “We live in a culture of conflict, a culture of fragmentation, a culture of waste […].Yet poverty for us is a theological category, “because our God, the Son of God, abased himself, he made himself poor to walk along the road with us. […] A poor Church for the poor begins by reaching out to the flesh of Christ. If we reach out to the flesh of Christ, we begin to understand something, to understand what this poverty, the Lord‟s poverty, actually is”.

  • VALDOCCO – the LAND of SANCTITY the Path to Holiness in the Company of the Saints
    VALDOCCO – THE LAND OF SANCTITY The Path to Holiness in the company of the Saints Going through some places of our origins, we want to welcome the call to holiness of Pope Francis which resounds loudly for us today through his witness of life and the Word. 1 The Family of Don Bosco, developing a characteristic spirituality of charismatic origin, enriches the whole Body of the Church with a very particular model of Christian life. This is borne out by the numerous groups of spiritual sons and daughters of Don Bosco who have already been declared Venerable or saints, or set out on the path of beatification and canonization.... (From the Charismatic Identity Card of the Salesian Family, 6). The spirituality inherited from Don Bosco is eminently ecclesial: it manifests and nourishes the communion of the Church by building, within the Christian communities, a network of fraternal relationships and effective collaborations; it is an educational spirituality that aims to help the young and the poor to feel at ease in the Church, to be builders of the Church and participants in her mission; it is a spirituality that enriches the whole Church with the gift of the holiness of so many of her sons and daughters. (From the Charismatic Identity Card of the Salesian Family, 26). 2 BATTISTERO DELLA BASILICA DI MARIA 1 AUSILIATRICE LIVE THE GRACE OF BAPTISM At the Baptismal Font, we are born to the life of grace: immersed in the death on the cross of Jesus, we have been subtracted from the power of original sin and we have risen to the new life that Jesus inaugurated.
