MAGDALENE OF CANOSSA MAGDALENE OF CANOSSA was born at Verona on 1st March, 1774. in a noble and wealthy family, the second of five children. From her early childhood she had to face many trials like the death of her father, abandonment by the mother. In her early childhood Magdalene showed clear signs of piety and goodness. She was not selfish, deceitful or proud. She loved the poor and the suffering very much. Even as a child she always spoke the truth because she did not want to offend God who is Truth. She felt very strongly that God was calling her to a life of self-giving to needy people. In the midst of her untiring activities and heavy family responsibilities Magdalene found time for a life of prayer. From the luxurious palace Magdalene gazed on the misery of the poor, living among the squatters of Verona. faced with so many needs. Magdalene felt that she could not manage everything by herself, so she searched and found her first companions who accepted her invitation to share a life of poverty and unconditional love. In 1808, Magdalene left the Canossa Palace and all her dear ones to start the new Canossa family called the “Daughters of Charity” in order to serve Christ in the poor. Charity is an ever speading fire and Magdalene opened her heart to the needs of other countries. Magdalene died in Verona in 1835 at the age of 61. She was proclaimed “Blessed” by the Church on 8th December 1941. Magdalene was canonised (Called a saint) on 2nd October 1988 in Rome. 5 ST. JOSEPHINE BAKHITA Bakhita was born in the region of Sudan, Africa in 1869. As a little girl, this African flower, knew the anguish of slavery and kidnapping. She was stolen by slave-traders and cruelly tortured. In this traumatic experience the little girl, could not remember her name and was named BAKHITA which means ‘The Lucky One.’ After being sold and resold, She was finally bought by an Italian Consul. For the first time now Bakhita experienced being loved and cared for, as a person. At her insistent request, she went with the Italian Consul, to Italy. There she was given as a present to a couple that had a little daughter. Through them she came to know the Canossian Sisters in Venice. She asked to be baptized. Later she offered herself totally to God as a Canossian Sister. 6 Simple and humble, she was full of love for God and neighbour. On 8th February 1947, she breathed her last at the age of 78, in Italy. She was declared a Saint on 1st October, 2000. by Pope John Paul II, who gave her the title “Universal Sister”. Bakhita is revered as a Saint, She became holy by doing every little thing with great love for God and for her neighbour. She was always cheerful and smiling, even when afflicted with arthritis. She did not harbour resentment against her captors. Infact, she prayed ardently for them and thanked God that through her kidnapping, they had brought her into the Catholic faith. Let us pray through her intercession for what ever graces we may be in need of. St. Josephine Bakhita was declared as the Patron of the victims of “HUMAN TRAFFICKING” by Pope Francis on 22nd January 2015 St. Josephine Bakhita - Pray for us. 7 SISTER FERNANDA RIVA Sr. Fernanda Riva was born on April 17, 1920, in Monza, Italy. She was the fourth and youngest child. She was barely three months old when her father died at the early age of 33. Fernanda was a model student in school, intelligent, modest and sweet in her ways. As a teenager she attended the Oratorio of the Canossian Daughter of Charity and participated in various activities. She excelled in catechism, throwball, drama and in sharing fun and joy through her acting skills. She cultivated an intense spritual life and in fact she succeeded in attracting several of her friends to attend Sunday School. She succeeded brilliantly in her studies and though she would have liked to pursue higher studies at the University, because of the financial constraints of her family she preferred to work as a salesgirl. She studied privately, completing a Higher Secondary Course. Fernanda entered the Missionary Institute of the Canossian Sisters in Vimercate, Milan, on March 8 19th, 1939. Seeing that she had a balanced personality and was prepared spiritually, she was sent some months later to India. She continued her Novitiate in Belgaum. She was an exemplary novice in the fulfillment of her duties especially in the practice of obedience, charity and humility. In1954 M Riva was at St. Joseph College, Alleppey Kerala. Sr. Fernanda was much loved and appreciated by the staff and students of the college. She gave them her individual attention and by her sweet ways united them all into one big family. Sr. Fernanda;s health again began to decline. She suffered much yet not a word of compliant escaped from her lips. She remained calm, serene prayerful and concerned only for others. She joyfully welcomed death. She was fully conscious till the end which came at the early hours of January 22, 1956. She was 35 years of age. She was buried in St. Michael’s cemetery, Mahim. She was declared Venerable on 28th June 2012 Let us pray for the cause of her canonization. 9 NATIONAL ANTHEM: by Rabindranath Tagore (First sung in 1911, when the Prince of Wales visited India, The Gateway of India was built at that time.) jk”Vªh; xhr tu x.k eu vf/kuk;d t; gs Hkkjr HkkX; fo/kkrk A iatkc] fla/k] xqtjkr] ejkBk nzkfoM+ mRdy oaxk A foU/;] fgekpy] ;equk] xaxk] mPNy tyf/k rjaxk A ro ‘kqHk ukes tkxs] ro ‘kqHk vkf’k”k ekxs A xk;s ro t; xkFkk A tu x.k eaxynk;d t; gs Hkkjr HkkX; fo/kkrk A t; gs] t; gs] t; gs t; t; t; t; gs A PLEDGE India is my country.

Like everything else even that has passed. The Jubilee celebration is over. I pray that each of us has found it a year of grace and blessings when we responded to the invitation of Jesus to return to God the merciful Father. For those of us who felt that we have missed on the Kairos moments and have not responded to His mercy, the Holy Father reminded us that while the year has come to a close “the true door of mercy, which is the heart of Christ, always remains open wide for us”. Indeed for each of us the Year of Mercy was a call to “rediscover the youthful, beautiful face of the Church, the face that is radiant when it is welcoming, free, faithful, poor in means but rich in love, on mission.” Each day we see ongoing conflicts that inflict suffering on children, women and men alike.

  • JOSEPHINE BAKHITA (1869-1947) Mother Josephine Bakhita Was Born in Sudan in 1869 and Died in Schio (Vicenza) in 1947
    JOSEPHINE BAKHITA (1869-1947) Mother Josephine Bakhita was born in Sudan in 1869 and died in Schio (Vicenza) in 1947. This African flower, who knew the anguish of kidnapping and slavery, bloomed marvellously in Italy, in response to God's grace, with the Daughters of Charity. Mother “Moretta” In Schio (Vicenza), where she spent many years of her life, everyone still calls her “our Black Mother”. The process for the cause of Canonization began 12 years after her death and on December 1st, 1978 the Church proclaimed the Decree of the heroic practice of all virtues. Divine Providence which “cares for the flowers of the fields and the birds of the air”, guided the Sudanese slave through innumerable and unspeakable sufferings to human freedom and to the freedom of faith and finally to the consecration of her whole life to God for the coming of his Kingdom. In Slavery Bakhita was not the name she received from her parents at birth. The fright and the terrible experiences she went through made her forget the name she was given by her parents. Bakhita, which means “fortunate”, was the name given to her by her kidnappers. Sold and resold in the markets of El Obeid and of Khartoum, she experienced the humiliations and sufferings of slavery, both physical and moral. Towards freedom In the Capital of Sudan, Bakhita was bought by an Italian Consul, Callisto Legnani. For the first time since the day she was kidnapped, she realized with pleasant surprise, that no one used the lash when giving her orders; instead, she was treated in a loving and cordial way.

Despite the quiet closure on the Feast of Christ the King, it has been a grace-filled year for us in the Institute, the Province as well as for the Archdiocese. The definition that “faith is the person Jesus Christ” is etched in my heart - something I learned as a postulant from Sr. Joy Shelley . Hence the Year of Faith was an invitation for me to deepen my relationship with Jesus and to live this trust that He is my Lord and my All in all.

V7C 2P7 Volume 17, Issue 1 Website: www.canossianalumnae.org December 2013 “Let us pray and God will do the rest.” St. Magdalene of Canossa Spiritual Director's Address Sr. Cecilia Cham, FdCC Dear Alumnae: Two important events have taken place this year: (I) The “Year of Faith”; (II) The appointment of Pope Francis. Pope Benedict XVI declared a special “Year of Faith” which began in October, 2012, the anniversary of the Opening of the Second Vatican Council, and concluded on 24 November, 2013, the Feast of Christ the King. The “Year of Faith” is to help Catholics all over the world to appreciate the gift of faith, to deepen their relationship with God and to strengthen their commitments to share faith with others. He said that the “Year of Faith” would give “renewed energy to the mission of the whole church, to lead men and women out of the desert towards the place of life and friendship with Christ. It will be a moment of grace and commitment to an even fuller conversion to God, to reinforce our faith in Him and to proclaim Him with joy to the people of our times”. On 13 March, 2013, Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, became the 266th Pope and is currently the Pope of the Catholic Church, having been elected Bishop of Rome. He is, thereby, also the sovereign of Vatican City. Throughout his life, both as an individual and a religious leader, Pope Francis has been known for his humility, his concern for the poor and his commitment to open dialogue as a way to build bridges between people of all backgrounds, beliefs and faiths.

    INTER-PROVINCIAL NOVITIATE COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2017 | ISSUE # 27 Celebrating the day of our Founder Birthday of St. Gaspar Life of St. Gaspar House Rosary OF THE Recollection w/ Fr.Dominic Feast of St. Luke October’s Community Days OCTOBER 2017 | ISSUE # 27 Birthday of St. Gaspar FOUNDER’S BIRTHDAY Each day is a miracle and a gift given by God. So it is our duty to thank God every day in our lives. Such that we are all are blissful to celebrate birthdays. As for us Stigmatines, October 9 is a special day. It is our annual tribute for the birthday of our dearest founder St.Gaspar Bertoni. In the Novitiate community, we started the celebration with a solemn mass presided by Fr. Reby. In his homily he shared that we celebrate a person who was a precious gift to our congregation. It was because of his dedication and passion that we were formed as a Stigmatine community. And also we celebrate a person who became an inspiration for many people in their spiritual life. He is a precious gift not only to us Stigmatines but to the church, to the people whom we are serving. As he became a spiritual director of priests and nuns, lay people, a friend of children, a protector of youth and many others. After our breakfast, we made our day more fruitful by decorating the statues of the founder and broomsticks making. Then we prayed the Novena to St. Gaspar Bertoni before taking our lunch. We also had special food and snacks in the afternoon.

  • 1169 (1): to Pope Pius IX Rome [After April 27, 1852]1 J! M! Most
    1169 (1): To Pope Pius IX Rome [After April 27, 1852]1 J! M! Most Holy Father! In their distress, the respectfully undersigned recently ventured to turn to Your Holiness as Father of the Faithful because, by separating the mission in Rottenburg from our motherhouse, His Excellency, the archbishop of Munich,2 did away with the beautiful structure that united all School Sisters up to now. Great as our anguish was over this separation, we have now reached the depths of our sorrow because the archbishop no longer recognizes our common spiritual mother as the superior of the order, but only as the local superior of the motherhouse. From the beginning and until very recently, she was in charge of the motherhouse and all the missions. All archiepiscopal decrees now come to her as the motherhouse superior, and she may not exercise any of the rights inherent to the general superior as they were drawn up by the founders. For 19 years, she exercised these rights with the knowledge and consent of the bishops, who never raised any objection, as is evident from the enclosed testimonials.3 With this new regulation, there is no longer any central government at the highest level. The sisters in the mission houses are no longer under her direction because one who is merely a local motherhouse superior does not have the right to look after the proper order and discipline in the other houses. The sisters in these houses are thereby released from the obligation to turn to her, to stand by her, and to be governed by her.

Because of the abundance of material this last volume will be further subdivided into several parts. The criterion for the same is as follow: The letters written to the various Superiors and Sisters have a homogeneous content. Therefore this correspondence is arranged here in a chronological order, irrespective of whom it is addressed to. The various parts are hereby presented with a single preface. This gives us a panoramic view of the whole period of the activity of Magdalene, from 1816 to 1835, the year of her death. This last volume can be defined as a familiar commentary on the human and spiritual journey of a person, who feels called, like Samuel, by a voice that is both undefined and undefinable. A call that one seeks to clarify to oneself in order to grasp the significance of a programme that seems to appear and disappear in the mist of inexperience. Msgr.
