Bishop Neil Tiedemann, CPNPastor Reverend Dariusz BlicharzNAdministrator Reverend Sebastian T. AndroNParochial Vicar What’s in your heart? Belief is a lifeanddeath issue for Jesus. How do I see faith as life giving, for myself and others? What do I really believe about death? Does that make a difference in how I live my life? Jesus shows a lot of emotion in this gospel: He weeps; he gets perturbed. How do his feelings affect me? What does he do with his intense feelings? What do I usually do with mine? Whose death caused me the most sorrow? What more can I do in my life to honor that person?

Whoever was chasing you dissolves, and whatever threatened harm has vanished. Grief and loss, however, can be living nightmares from which we’re unable to shake ourselves awake. Yet as the Scrutiny prayers for our Elect this Sunday affirm, the “horror of sin, which distorts life” is indeed an evil from which we can escape. Death has an end, and love will have its victory. We pray with our Elect for freedom from all paths that lead to death and a greater attraction to the ways that restore life. Ezekiel 37:12-14; Romans 8:8-11; John 11:1-45 (34).“Whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live.” March 30-Get into the Spirit; On this day in 1990, Sister Thea Bowman, F.S.P.A. died but the voice that nurtured countless thousands was not silenced. Before Sister Thea, black Catholics were expected to give up their music, dance, and spiritual t estifying because these were suspiciously “Protestant” customs. She restored their identity, shaped it through the Institute of Black Catholic Studies at Xavier University, and shared it with those of other backgrounds. Shortly before her death, Thea spoke to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops from her wheelchair. In the last five minutes of that talk, Thea led the visibly moved bishops in singing “We Shall Overcome.” Thea called the spirituals she grew up with "bonfires to warm chilly nights." Such songs of hope warm a few hearts as well. Today, more than ever, we need a spirit-filled song. Daniel 13:1-9, 15-17, 19-30, 33-62 or 13:41c-62; John 8:1-11 (251).“Neither do I condemn you.” March 31 -I am vs. I AM: John’s gospel uses the term “I AM” to identify Jesus. That’s a reference to the Exodus story when God revealed the divine presence to Moses using the name “I AM.” So the presence of Christ in us, in our humanity, is the “I AM” who is with us. Of course there’s another “I am” who is the self, our ego. That’s the conflict. Just as John the Baptist said, “He must increase and I must decrease,” the best thing we can do is surrender the “I am” in us to the “I AM” who is Christ. Numbers 21:4-9; John 8:21-30 (252).“When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I AM.” April 1-Freedom’s not just another word; “Truth will set you free” and other heady thoughts about freedom are abundant in today’s gospel. Across the centuries, the Catholic Church has had a lot to say about freedom (though, admittedly, it also has remained silent at times when it should have spoken out). A foundation for much of that thought springs from the concept that God has granted human beings freedom to choose between good and evil, and the “more one does what is good, the freer one becomes,” as the Catechism of the Catholic Church puts it (1733). Though current conditions require most of us to sacrifice some of our mobility and sociability for now, remember the real keys to freedom are truth and goodness. Have a little faith and see where it gets you. Daniel 3:14-20, 91-92, 95; John 8:31-42 (253).“If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” April 2-Memorial of Francis of Paola, Hermit-Vegan before vegan was a thing; The movement toward organic farming and more humane animal husbandry has raised our awareness of the impact of our food production on the vast chain of creation. Saint Francis of Paola intuited this more than 500 years ago, when he founded the religious order of Minims, “the least,” in the spirit of the “Lesser Brothers” of Saint Francis of Assisi. In addition to the usual monastic vows, Minims take a fourth vow to abstain from meat, eggs, and dairy products, not only to practice a “Lenten way of life,” but also in an effort to “do no harm” to other living beings. Bring a bit of the spirit of the Minims to your dining table.

  • 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.

  • 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).

  • Celebrating New Saints in Rome and Across the Globe
    chapter 8 Celebrating New Saints in Rome and across the Globe Pamela M. Jones Men and women recognized for exemplary holiness had been revered as saints since the early Christian era, but in the late 16th and 17th centuries the papacy took definitive control and made Rome the center of official sanctity. Between 1492, the opening year of this volume, and 1587, only three persons were sub- ject to papal canonization (the creation of “saints”). They were Francis of Paola (1416–1507), founder of the Order of the Minims, canonized by Pope Leo X (r.1513–21), and two men canonized on the same day by Pope Adrian VI (r.1522– 23), Antoninus, a Dominican friar and archbishop of Florence (1389–1459), and Benno, bishop of Meissen (c.1040–1106).1 Papal canonization, therefore, had long been in virtual disuse prior to the decades of confessional turbulence from 1523 through 1587 when it continued to languish. Furthermore, although in 1563 the Council of Trent decreed saints to be greatly beneficial to the faith- ful, the next canonization occurred only in 1588.2 This essay focuses on the watershed era beginning in 1588 and continuing through the 17th century, during which canonization procedure was stan- dardized and many new saints were created. The return of saint-making was intimately connected to the new religious Orders, which could not flourish without saints of their own, as well as to the papacy’s goal of spreading and deepening the Catholic faith throughout the world, partly through the minis- try of religious Orders, both old and new.

  • Thirteen Fridays in Honor of St. Francis of Paola
    Thirteen Fridays in Honor of St. Francis of Paola Friday January 3rd 2014 to Friday, March 28th 2014 at 7:00 p.m. in our Chapel Wednesday, April 2nd 2014 Mass and Reception to Follow St. Francis was born in the tiny village of Paola, Italy. *(His image in stained glass can be viewed above the altar of Saint Anthony’s Church.) Paola is located near the Tyrrhenian Sea, in Calabria, and is midway between Naples and Reggio, Italy. His parents, Giacomo and Vienna d’Alessio, were remarkable for the holiness of their lives. Remaining childless for some years after their marriage they had recourse to prayer, especially commending themselves to the intercession of St. Francis of Assisi. Three children were eventually born to them, the eldest of whom was Francis. Saint Francis of Paola was born on March 27, 1416 and died on Good Friday, April 2, 1507. His parents attributed his birth to the intercession of St. Francis of Assisi. From the beginning, Francis was a famous wonder worker on behalf of the poor and oppressed. He used common objects to work miracles so that everyone understood that it was God who really restored health or solved problems. Francis of Paola himself started the 13 Fridays devotion in honor of Jesus and his twelve disciples. Francis chose Friday to honor the passion of Jesus. It was after the death of Francis that the Order of Minims changed the 13 Fridays devotion in honor of Francis of Paola. Join us for the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in the Monastic Format; Prayer attributed to the 13 Fridays, the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the reposing of the Blessed Sacrament.
