  • The Little Book of Big Prayres
    17 YEARS Saint Annibale Maria di Francia and the Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta, The Little Daughter of the Divine Will Seventeen Years (1910-1927) Saint Annibale Maria Di Francia wanted to open in Trani male and female branches of his newly founded congregation. When he heard about Luisa Piccarreta, he paid her a visit and from that time these two souls were inseparably linked by their common aims. Saint Annibale became her extraordinary confessor and edited her writings, which were little by little properly examined and approved by the ecclesiastical authorities. In about 1926, St. Annibale ordered Luisa to write a book of memoirs of her childhood and adolescence. He published various writings of Luisa’s, including the book L’orologio della Passione, which acquired widespread fame and was reprinted four times. 1 I saw the blessed soul of father before me, near my bed, invested with light, suspended from the earth, fixing on me, but without telling me one word. I too felt mute before him, and Jesus added: “Look at him, how transformed he is. My Will is light, and has transformed that soul into light; It is beautiful, and has given him all the shades of perfect beauty; It is holy, and he has been sanctified. My Will possesses all sciences, and his soul has been invested by divine science. There is nothing which my Will has not given to him. Oh! if all understood what Divine Will means, they would put everything aside, they would care about doing nothing else, and their whole commitment would be to do my Will alone.”… After this, I was thinking to myself: ‘But why did blessed Jesus not concur in making a miracle for Father Di Francia?’ ….

  • The Feast of All Saints in the Divine Will
    The Feast of All Saints In the Divine Will From the Writings of The Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta The Little Daughter of the Divine Will All Saints Many of the greatest Saints of both the old and new Testaments are referred to in Luisa’s life and writings. Each of these Saints is known in particular for one or more heroic virtues that identify and make them unique from other Saints. Luisa possessed all their virtues to an exceeding degree being surpassed only by the Blessed Virgin Mary, and our Lord Jesus. Luisa does share with them the greatest of all gifts—the living in the Divine Will. Luisa did not have the gift of the Immaculate Conception, only Adam and Eve prior to their fall shared this with Our Blessed Mother. However they both fell, while Our Blessed Mother remains always and forever Immaculate. The following is a brief list of Saints related to Luisa’s life and writings by Him, and I was so touched that I would cry bitterly. One day, while working, I so oppressed by the pain, that I could not breathe. Fearing something, I wanted to distract myself by going out to the balcony. But as I go about looking in the middle of it my loving Jesus with the Cross upon His shoulders. Some pulled Him to one side, some to another. All panting, with His face dripping with blood, He raised His eyes toward me in the act of asking for help. Who can tell the sorrow I felt, and the impression that a scene so pitiful made on my soul.

    1 MARTINO CARBOTTI LA MIA FEDE nei Santi di ogni giorno Pugliesi Editore 2 Introduzione Non è assolutamente semplice per me, figlio, delineare la figura di mio padre: Ninuccio Carbotti. Non vi nascondo di averci pensato per molto tempo, dubbioso, circa i tanti aspetti su cui avrei dovuto soffermarmi e una delle domande che mi sono subito posto è stata: ma oltre alla figura di padre modello che io conoscevo, cos'altro conosco della vita di mio padre? E qui ho avuto delle perplessità ..... sì dico perplessità perché tutti i padri presumo hanno un determinato comportamento con i figli, dettato dal ruolo, c'è chi lo fà con più severità e chi meno, chi è pedante e chi meno, chi è accondiscendente e chi meno e via dicendo ma sicuramente tutti si apprestano a svolgere questo compito basilare con uno sconfinato e immenso amore !!! Ma un padre oltre a questo è anche un “uomo”ed è proprio il profilo umano, di uomo tra gli uomini, che mi ha portato ad iniziare questo lavoro, oserei dire di ricerca, esegetico, di tutti gli scritti e archiviazioni varie che con pazienza e passione certosina egli aveva iniziato ed implementato nei vari anni della sua vita. Ho avuto la fortuna di crescere in una famiglia molto unita, sotto tutti gli aspetti. Mio padre apparteneva a quelle belle famiglie di una volta, numerose: erano otto figli, madre, padre e “zizì” a carico (una zia di mia padre, sorella minore di mia nonna, la quale viveva sotto lo stesso tetto a causa di lievi problemi invalidanti) e come tradizione comanda, tutti i figli maschi e dico tutti nessuno escluso, hanno ereditato dal padre l'arte della lavorazione del legno.

  • The Church Impotent, by Leon J Podles, 7
    7 Feminized Christianity S MEN ABSENTED THEMSELVES from the Christian Church- es and found their spiritual sustenance elsewhere, the churches were left with congregations that were predominately femi- nine.A Moreover, the Christian life itself was seen more and more as properly feminine—men had to become feminine in order to be good Christians—notwithstanding that the Christianity of the New Testament and patristic era saw the vocation of the Christian as masculine. The theology and spirituality whose pattern for following Christ was masculine was transformed when Christians began seeing their life-pattern as feminine. This feminized spirituality further identi- fied the Church as the sphere of women (or of those men who were like women) and reinforced the male desire to keep a safe distance between themselves and a religion that threatened to emasculate them. Receptivity as Christian The Aristotelian analysis of masculinity and femininity provided me- dieval theologians with a philosophical explanation for the relative greater resistance men showed to Christianity, as well as a basis for the clerical cautions against women taking on masculine roles: If 3 Feminized Christianity 4 a woman were to become masculine, she would lose her emptiness and her openness to the Spirit. This Aristotelianism continues as the received, “traditional” explanation of the roles of men and women in Christian- ity. Karl Barth, accepting the Aristotelian formulation of masculinity as initiative and femininity as reception, stated: “As a living member of the church, man and all other superiors and subordinates in the community have no other option but to follow the example of women, occupying in relation to Jesus Christ the precise position which she must occupy and maintain in relation to man.”1 Manfred Hauke says of the Church as bride: “In receiving from Christ and cooperating with him.

  • Proper Catholic Perspectives on the Teachings of Luisa Piccarreta
    PROPER CATHOLIC PERSPECTIVES ON THE TEACHINGS OF LUISA PICCARRETA by Rev. Joseph Iannuzzi – 2005 © Missionaries of the Holy Trinity As a priest completing a thesis in theology for the Pontifical University of Rome on the correct interpretations of Luisa Piccarreta’s writings with the approval of my ecclesiastical superiors and the endorsement of G.B. Picchieri, the Archbishop of Trani and Postulator of Luisa’s Cause for Beatification, I receive many requests to address errors[1] of modern Divine Will presentations at conferences, retreats and cenacles. I received such requests during my authorized travels to teach and preach the Divine Will in over 13 countries and 45 American states. This letter therefore has one aim: to assist the faithful in the proper interpretation of Luisa’s writings.[2] I write this letter with deep respect for my brother priests and for those laity that are devoted to Luisa, and pray that my words may be received in the spirit in which they are written – a spirit of unity and openness to the truth that Jesus Christ revealed to the Apostles 2,000 years ago. I recall Jesus’ words to Luisa on “how” He wants these writings made known: “As I chose Saint Joseph… as cooperator, guardian and vigilant sentry for Me and for the Sovereign Queen, so I have placed beside you the vigilant assistance of My priests as cooperators, guardians and depositaries of the knowledge, the goods and the prodigies that My Will contains. As My Will wants to establish Its Kingdom in the midst of people, so, through you, I want to deposit in My priests this celestial doctrine, as to new apostles.

In the Old Covenant, even though Israel was a kingdom of Priests (Ex. 19:6), the Lord Called certain men to a special Priestly ministry (Ex.19:22).

Through it, Priests are Ordained and Empowered to serve the Church (2 Tim. 1:6-7) as Pastors, teachers, and Spiritual Fathers who heal, feed, and strengthen God’s people – especially through preaching and the administration of the Sacraments. “Priests, your works are to be according to the Will of Christ.
