  • Daily Saints - 22 January
    Daily Saints - 22 January Feast of Saint Vincent Pallotti, Missionary, Founder Born: 21 April 1795, Rome, Papal States, Died: 22 January 1850 (aged 54), Rome, Papal States, Venerated in Roman Catholic Church, Beatified: January 22, 1950, by Pope Pius XII, Canonized: January 20, 1963, Rome by Pope John XXIII Vincent was born in Rome on April 21st, 1795, the third of ten children, five of whom died in infancy. His parents were Maria Maddalena di Rossi and Pietro Paolo Pallotti, a small goods grocer, owner of three shops in Rome. Vincent was profoundly influenced by their personal, practical faith, their deep devotion, and generous attentiveness to the poor. He was aware of himself quite early — his urge for activity and achievement, his tendency to pride and anger. At twelve years of age, he selected Fr. Bernardino Fazzini as his confessor and spiritual director. Fazzini, a diocesan priest, recognized in Vincent a person of extraordinary spiritual gifts. Fr. Fazzini played a formative role, inculcating in his young charge a profound awareness of God, the discipline of self (according to the ascetical practices of the time), and readiness for apostolic service. With clear-sightedness and a resolute will, Vincent brought energy to his life project, despite frail health and recurrent bouts of illness. In school he was known as a “little saint” and, although bright, he was also considered “a bit slow” – an illusion amply disproved by the apostolic endeavors of his life. He was ordained a priest when only twenty-three. After his ordination in 1818, he obtained two doctorates – one in philosophy and one in theology.

  • UAC NEWSLETTER February, 2010
    UAC NEWSLETTER February, 2010 Dear brothers and sisters in the Union, As promised in last months’ issue of the UAC Newsletter we are very happy to bring you some short reports or reflections on celebrations of the Epiphany in Pallottine communities in Germany and Brazil. It is very good to see that the practice is growing and developing but in a creative way that is in tune with the reality in each area. 1. Epiphany 2010 A Triduum of the Epiphany in Limburg, Germany The Pallottine communities issued an invitation to participate in a triduum in preparation for the feast of the Epiphany. During three days they celebrated solemn Vesper Services in three different churches of Limburg. An average of 50 persons took part in each of the services. The first Vespers took place in the church of St. Marien, which is a parish administered by the Pallottines. Here Sr. Gertrud Meiser, SAC spoke about the messianic expectation of the prophet Isaiah. His vision is a source of encouragement for the Church of today and for the Pallottine family for daily living. Fr. Alexander Holzbach, SAC spoke at the second service which was held in the Church of St. Anna in the center of Limburg. He acknowledged that current parameters for the perception of Christian life may be different from those of the time of St. Paul or Vincent Pallotti. However, as Christians inspired by St. Vincent, we must be experienced as and seen to be people of confidence and hope so that persons who are interested in religious matters may know whom they can approach.
