It was through Baptism that we began to be identified as “followers of Christ.” In this Sunday’s Second Reading, the First Letter of St. Peter invites us to reflect on the biblical drama of the flood and Noah’s act of rescue in the hope that we will see the connection to baptism. In this way, we can understand the much more significant rescue act of Christ, who entered our damaged world and was tempted in the wilderness, but did not give in to the temptations of the devil. This is the same Christ who went into the desert to wrestle with the powers of evil and who then fulfilled his Father’s mission and began to heal the hurt of sin and its consequences.

    THREE CATHOLIC REFORMERS OF THE FIFTEENTH CENTURY. MARY H. ALLIES. LONDON : BURNS AND OATES. 1878. AT THE FEET OF ST. GREGORY THE SEVENTH, THE PATTERN OF ALL TRUE REFORMERS, I LAY THIS MEMORIAL OF THREE SAINTS, WHO FOLLOWED IN THEIR DAY HIS EXAMPLE, RESTORING THE BEAUTY OF GOD'S HOUSE BY PREACHING THE PENANCE WHICH THEY PRACTISED. PREFACE. The following pages form only a short sketch in the case of each Saint containing some principal incidents in his life, but sufficient, it is hoped, to give a view of the character and actions, so that the reader may draw for himself the lessons to be derived. The authorities followed are, in the case of St. Vincent, the life in the Acta Sanctorum, and of Ranzano, the last written for the Saint's canoniza- tion, which took place about 1456. Also the life by l'Abbe Bayle has been now and then used. In the case of St. Bernardine, the three lives in the Acta Sanctorum, two of which are by eye- witnesses ; the Analecta, collected from various sources, and the Chronica de San Francisco de Assis; with St. Bernardine's own works. In the case of St. John Capistran, the Acta Sanc- torum, containing the learned commentary of the viii Preface, Bollandists three lives three of his ; by companions, eye-witnesses, viz., Nicholas de Fara, Hieronymus de Utino, Christophorus a Varisio. With regard to the title of Apostle, used occa- sionally of these Saints, for which it is believed there is high authority, it must be only taken in a secondary and subordinate sense.

  • St. Vincent Ferrer Feast: April 5
    St. Vincent Ferrer Feast: April 5 Facts Feast Day: April 5 St. Vincent Ferrer is the patron saint of builders because of his fame for "building up" and strengthening the Church: through his preaching, missionary work, in his teachings, as confessor and adviser. At Valencia in Spain, this illustrious son of St. Dominic came into the world on January 23, 1357. In the year 1374, he entered the Order of St. Dominic in a monastery near his native city. Soon after his profession he was commissioned to deliver lectures on philosophy. On being sent to Barcelona, he continued his scholastic duties and at the same time devoted himself to preaching. At Lerida, the famous university city of Catalonia, he received his doctorate. After this he labored six years in Valencia, during which time he perfected himself in the Christian life. In 1390, he was obliged to accompany Cardinal Pedro de Luna to France, but he soon returned home. When, in 1394, de Luna himself had become Pope at Avignon he summoned St. Vincent and made him Master of the sacred palace. In this capacity St. Vincent made unsuccessful efforts to put an end to the great schism. He refused all ecclesiastical dignities, even the cardinal's hat, and only craved to be appointed apostolical missionary. Now began those labors that made him the famous missionary of the fourteenth century. He evangelized nearly every province of Spain, and preached in France, Italy, Germany, Flanders, England, Scotland, and Ireland. Numerous conversions followed his preaching, which God Himself assisted by the gift of miracles.

  • Eschatology and Discernment of Spirits: the Impact of Peter of John Olivi’S Remedia Contra Temptationes Spirituales (14Th-15Th Centuries)1
    Eschatology and Discernment of Spirits: The Impact of Peter of John Olivi’s Remedia contra Temptationes Spirituales (14th-15th Centuries)1 In the last years of his life, between 1292 and 1298, the Franciscan Peter of John Olivi wrote a series of short devotional texts, known as Opus- cula, aimed at the religious edification of the laity. Olivi’s perspective was strongly eschatological: in his opinion, the imminence of the end of time made lay religious experience more authentic than that of the clergy, which would eventually oppose the final evangelical renewal. Among the twelve surviving Opuscula, the most eschatologically ori- ented is titled Remedia contra temptationes spirituales. The Remedia are characterized by a cautious and rigorous judgment on spiritual gifts, such as visions and raptures. According to Olivi, these phenomena are particularly difficult to discern when the Antichrist is approaching and “some will renounce the faith by paying heed to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons” (I Tim 4, 1). Following this apocalyptic per- spective of discretio spirituum, the Remedia are divided into two parts: the first includes twelve remedies against spiritual temptations, whereas the second puts forward four remedies against corrupt teachers and their doctrines. This structure, however, is not fixed. The work is transmitted by a huge number of manuscripts, and is often attributed, as we will see, to other authors (Bonaventure, Venturino of Bergamo), or forms part of larger works (such as Ludolph of Saxony’s Vita Christi or Vincent Fer- rer’s Tractatus de vita spirituali). Accordingly, its structure remains fluid from version to version.

    Saint Joseph de ClairvalLetter of June 8,Abbey 2018, Feast of the Most Sacred Heart of JESUS Dear Friends, ANUARY 1367. Vincent was seventeen years old when he knocked at the door of the Dominican monastery in Valencia, Spain, to consecrate J his life to Christ. He needed no letter of recommendation: his father, Guillem Ferrer, a royal notary of the city, was well known at the monastery. He and his wife, Constanca Mique, were generous to the monks. The mira- cle that God had performed to signal the child’s special destiny, while the child was still in his mother’s womb, was well remembered in Valencia. When the mother asked a blind woman whom she was aiding to pray for a safe delivery, the poor woman bent her head toward her benefactress’ womb and blessed the child with all her heart. She immediately regained her sight and exclaimed, “Blessed mother! You are carrying an angel who just gave me the light of day!” On January 23, 1350, a boy was born. His parents had him baptized that very day, placing him under the patronage of Saint Vincent, a deacon of Saragossa who was martyred in Valencia around 303. Saint Vincent Ferrer All rights reserved In His mercy, the Lord granted Vincent not only a contemplative spirit to adore Him in the churches and tabernacles where He resides, but He also made him way to the “studium generale” in Barcelona, and finally tremble with admiration at the sight of His works in to Toulouse, which for his Order was the summit of the nature, particularly before the immensity of the sea.
