The Life of St. Philip Neri
The Life of St. Philip Neri From Florence to Rome Filippo Romolo Neri was born in Florence on July 21, 1515, the son of Francesco, a notary (although not a particularly successful one), and Lucrezia. He had two sisters - one older, one younger - and a brother who died in infancy. Philip’s mother died when he was only five years old. Little is known of Philip’s childhood, other than a few amusing anecdotes and an account of a miracle. Apparently, young Philip playfully jumped on the back of a donkey laden with produce, leading them both to fall down a flight of steps into a cellar, with Philip at the bottom of the pile. He always praised God for having preserved him from harm. Philip was known as “Pippo Buono” - “Good Little Phil” - for his good behavior and jovial spirit. His early spiritual formation came from the Dominicans at San Marco, where he walked among the frescoes of Fra Angelico and was inspired by the memory of the reformer Savonarola. At the age of 18, Philip left Florence forever. His father sent him to live with his father’s cousin, Romolo, a childless merchant, in San Germano. He furthered his formation by frequenting the Benedictine abbey at Monte Cassino. Philip remarked later that he could have been a rich man if he wanted to, but it didn’t take him long to realize that business and worldly pursuits were not his calling. Drawn ever deeper into relationship with Christ, Philip desired to serve Him unreservedly. Moving on from any ties to his family, Philip headed for Rome on what would turn out to be a one-way trip.

Save to your computer and extract by clicking on the filename. Foreword In our pluralistic age we recognize many traditions have special gifts to make to a rich, well-balanced spirituality for our time. My own life has shown me the spiritual tradition stemming from St. Dominic, like that from his contemporary St. Francis, provides ever fresh insights. No tradition, however, can be understood merely by looking at its origins. We must see it unfold historically in those who have been formed by that tradition in many times and situations and have furthered its development. To know its essential strength, we need to see it tested, undergoing deformations yet recovering and growing. Therefore, I have tried to survey its eight centuries to give some sense of its chronology and its individual personalities, and of the inclusive Dominican Family. I have aimed only to provide a sketch to encourage readers to use the bibliography to explore further, but with regret I have omitted all documentation except to indicate the source of quotations. Translated 1 quotations are mine. I thank Sister Susan Noffke, O.P., Fr. Thomas Donlan, O.P., for encouraging this project and my Provincial, Fr.

St. Francis of Assisi Church Springfield, Illinois
St. Francis of Assisi Church Springfield, Illinois (St. Francis of Assisi Church east facade) Introduction St. Francis was born in Assisi, Italy in 1182 and died October 3, 1226. The son of a fabric merchant, he enjoyed status and wealth, but he gave up every material thing he owned to follow the path of God. St. Francis devoted himself to solitude, prayer, and service to the poor, and his commitment to poverty was the keynote of his spirit and way of life. His life showed how to have compassion for the poor, the outcast, and the oppressed and inspired a journey toward peace, nonviolence, and reconciliation. His message is a light for the present and the future. The decision to construct St. Francis of Assisi Church came from the realization that this property would become the Motherhouse of the American Province of the Hospital Sisters of St. Francis: the place where women would be prepared for religious life, the place where the Sisters would return for Community gatherings, and a place the Sisters could call home. From 1875-1930, the Motherhouse was at St. John’s Hospital, 800 East Carpenter Street, Springfield, IL. In 1920, after several years of planning, construction began on this church under the direction of Monsignor Joseph C. Straub, Priest Director of the Hospital Sisters of St. Francis, and Mother Marciana Willebrand, OSF, Provincial Superior of the Hospital Sisters of St. Francis. On April 27, 1924, at 9:30 a.m., Bishop James A. Griffin, Diocese of Springfield in Illinois, officiated in the solemn Dedication Mass, consecration of the altar, and pontifical benediction.
