  • Friars' Bookshelf 175 Indispensable for a Thorough Understanding of the Formal Treatment of St
    Paul the Apostle. By Giuseppe Ricciotti. Translated by Alba I. Zizzamia. Milwaukee, The Bruce Publishing Co., 1953. pp. 540. $7 .50. To attempt a biography of Paul the Apostle is like trying to harness a hurricane. Paul was pneumatic, spirit-swept, animated by the breath of God Himself. He in turn moved like a mighty wind over the Greco-Roman world, shaking the pillars of an empire, sweep­ ing everything Christward, to become the veritable Godparent of Christianity. To crystalize in print so boundless a personality is to conquer the unconquerable. Perfect achievement is impossible. The best to be hoped for is a favorable issue with fractional success. Father Ricciotti has not done the impossible, but he has made a magnificent try. To those familiar with his Life of Christ this will be no surprise. As difficult a subject as St. Paul poses, it is child's play compared to a biography of the Son of God. Since his L-ife of Clzrisi is universally acknowledged as one of the finest portrayals of our Saviour ever to appear, it is only to be expected that the com­ paratively less challenging life of St. Paul would be another trium­ phant masterstroke. It is, without question. With a talent unique among authors who utilize biblical themes, Father Ricciotti imparts to his work an orientation neither exegetical, nor literary, nor devotional, nor theological. Fundamentally, he is a classicist who works with Scriptural subject matter. The quality peculiar to his writing is the authentic reproduction of the Imperial Roman atmosphere of the first century, the world in which the fire of Christianity was first ignited.

  • Modern Spirituality
    MODERN SPIRITUALITY By M. C. D'ARCY Ew, whose memories can go back to the nineteenth century, would deny that a change in the form of ascetic and spiritual direction has taken place within their own lifetime. This F change has been attributed by some to the Decree of St. Pins X on Frequent Communion. The effects of frequent and daily communion have been remarkable even to human sight, but the Decree was more a signal than a cause, an encouragement to already existing desires. Long before i9o 5 writers like Scheeben or the Ven. Francis Libermann, for example, were teaching what would be considered characteristic of the present spirit of the Church. One contributing cause has been suggested, namely, the dying down of the long dispute on the nature of actual grace. There is some truth here because the seminaries and religious houses of theology teach the priests, whose sermons and direction are the word of God for the faithful. Now the controversy on actual grace took up so much of the time meant to be given to grace in class, that the nature of sanctifying grace and the supernatural life was hurried through. In 1900 a student had learnt hardly anything of this supernatural life. His first sermon as a priest would be invariably on loving God. By contrast the first sermon now will be usually on sanctifying grace or the mystical body. For distant causes we have to go back to the post-Reformation policy of the Church. That was determined by the successes of heretics and the general laxity of the clergy and the people.

  • Novena 2015 “Libermann and the Holy Spirit”
    CONGREGAZIONE DELLO SPIRITO SANTO CLIVO DI CINNA, 195 - 00136 ROMA, ITALIA HOLY SPIRIT, Life in the Spirit 02 FEBRUARY 2015 – 15 May 2016 AC - II/1/01-2015 - EN “Libermann and the Holy Spirit” Discovering the Holy Spirit in the Life of Libermann Introduction We are going to follow this Novena entitled “Libermann and the Holy Spirit” within the ambit of the Year of Consecrated Life. The first letter from the Roman Congregation for Religious, addressed to all those living the Consecrated Life, which has for its theme “Rejoice”1 draws to a great extent on the words of Pope Francis in his Apostolic Exhortation “The Joy of the Gospel”. In that document, the Pope invites us to go back to the source of our own vocation, namely, our encounter with Jesus Christ. This Novena invites us to go back to the source of Libermann’s vocation: the outpouring of the Spirit of Truth at his conversion, and of the Spirit of Love at his Baptism. If we wish to understand the teaching of Libermann on consecration and docility to the Holy Spirit, we must first of all try to know his spiritual experience as a beginner in the Faith. This is what we propose to examine during this (first) Novena. In this Novena, “Libermann: his Experience of the Holy Spirit”, we are invited to live the same return to the sources of our own Spiritan missionary vocation. The present Novena is a re-reading of the life of Libermann, especially of the first part of his life up to the foundation of the Society of the Holy Heart of Mary.

  • Spiritual Letters of Francis Libermann
    ! SPIRITUAL LETTERS OF FRANCIS LIBERMANN 2. LETTERS TO EUGENE DUPONT Eugene Dupont, a student at the Sulpician Seminary of Issy, felt attracted to apostolic work in the missions. Follow- ing the advice of his spiritual director, Father Pinault, a friend and admirer of Libermann, he wrote to the latter, who was then in Rome to prepare the foundation of the Con- gregation of the Holy Heart of Mary. There followed a correspondence between the two men which extended over a period of two years. Sixteen letters of Libermann have been preserved. One of these contains his sublime commentary on the inspiring prayer, O J'esus, living in Mary, come and live in your servants. Eugene Dupont had aspired to go to Haiti as a member of Libermann's Congregation, but his wishes were not fulfilled. He eventually became a priest of the Archdiocese of Rouen, but his spiritual union with Father Libermann was never destroyed. What is implied by surrender to God's love. The man of God fears no obstacles. Rem,arks about mental prayer and mortification. Letter One Rome, August 17, 1840 Vol. 2, p. 168 Dear Brother: [What is Implied by Surrender to God's Love] May the peace and love of our Lord Jesus Christ and His most Holy Mother fill your soul and animate all your actions I received both your letters last night. They came from London (I don't know why). I admire the way Our Lord 18 ;; LETTERS TO EUGENE DUPONT deals with your soul. How well He knows how to put into play the resources of His divine Providence to overcome and subjugate you in the least things as well as in those that are dearest to your heart! You were very anxious for those two letters to reach me and eagerly waited for a reply.
