The National Shrine of St. Philomena is part of the apostolate of The Society of Saint Pius X.

We adhere to the Traditional Roman Rites and follow the 1962 Roman Missal. The National Shrine of St. Philomena was founded in 1988 by Father Timothy Hopkins, R.I.P.

Box 530157, Miami Shores, FL 33153-0157 News and Announcements Low Sunday or the First Sunday after Easter. Its liturgical name is Dominica in albis depositis, derived from the fact that on it the neophytes, who had been baptized on the Easter Vigil, then for the first time laid aside their white baptismal robes. Low Sunday is also called by some liturgical writers Pascha clausum, signifying the close of the Easter Octave, and "Quasimodo Sunday", from the Introit of the Mass: "Quasi modo geniti infantes, rationabile, sine dolo lac concupiscite", which words are used by the Church with special reference to the newly baptized neophytes. **** Regina cæli, lætare, alleluia: Quia quem meruisti portare, alleluia, Resurrexit, sicut dixit, alleluia, Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia. Gaude et lætare, Virgo Maria, alleluia. Quia surrexit Dominus vere, alleluia. **** Easter Duty. We have the obligation to receive Holy Communion worthily anytime between the First Sunday of Lent and Trinity Sunday. **** Today's second collection will be taken up for the new Shrine of St. Philomena. **** On May 5th, the Second Sunday after Easter or Good Shepherd Sunday, the Second Collection will be taken up for vocations. Please be generous. **** In 1955 Pope Pius XII instituted the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker to foster a deep devotion to St. Joseph among Catholics, and in response to the “May Day” celebrations for workers sponsored by Communists. This is what Pope Pius XII had to say about St. Joseph as a model for workers: “The spirit flows to you and to all men from the heart of the God-Man, Savior of the world, but certainly, no worker was ever more completely and profoundly penetrated by it than the foster father of Jesus, who lived with Him in closest intimacy and community of family life and work.” **** Saint Athanasius of Alexandria (298 to May 2nd, 373). His episcopate lasted 45 years (June 8th, 328 to his death), of which over 17 were spent in five exiles ordered by four different Roman emperors. St. Athanasius is a renowned Christian theologian, a Church Father, the chief defender of Trinitarianism against Arianism. Within a few years of his death, St. Gregory of Nazianzus called him the "Pillar of the Church". His writings were well regarded by all Church fathers who followed, in both the West and the East, who noted their rich devotion to the Word-Become-Man, great pastoral concern, and profound interest in monasticism. “The LORD is in his Holy Temple; let all the earth keep silence before Him.” (Hab. 2, 20) St. Ambrose’s sermons. Chapter XV (Number 1) To no purpose, then, is the heretics' customary citation of the Scripture, that "God made Him both Lord and Christ." Let these ignorant persons read the whole passage, and un- derstand it. For thus it is written. "God made this Jesus, Whom ye crucified, both Lord and Christ." It was not the Godhead, but the flesh, that was crucified. This, indeed, was possible, because the flesh allowed of being crucified. It follows not, then, that the Son of God is a created being. Let us dispatch, then, that passage also, which they do use to misrepresent, let them learn what is the sense of the words, "The Lord created Me." It is not "the Father creat- ed," but "the Lord created Me." The flesh acknowledgeth its Lord, praise declareth the Father: our created nature con- fesseth the first, loveth, and knoweth the latter. Who, then, cannot but perceive that these words announce the Incarnation? Thus the Son speaketh of Himself as created in respect of that wherein he witnesseth to Himself as being man, when He says, "Why seek ye to kill me, a man, Who have told you the truth?" He speaketh of His Manhood, wherein He was crucified, and died, and was buried. Further- more, there is no doubt but that the writer set down as past that which was to come; for this is the usage of prophecy, that things to come are spoken of as though they were already pre- sent or past. For example, in the twenty-first psalm you have read: "Fat bulls (of Bashan) have beset me," and again: "They parted My garments among them."

In the Eastern lectionary, however, it is used twice: here from Mark 9 and on the 10th Sunday after Pentecost from Matthew 17. Here the theme of fasting and prayer will be covered while on the 10 Sunday after Pentecost, the theme of a faith capable of moving mountains will be used. Today’s Epistle lesson has been used by some Western churches, but is falling into disuse also.

  • The Homilies of John Chrysostom
    366 Tsamakda Chapter 25 The Homilies of John Chrysostom Vasiliki Tsamakda The Author and His Work St John Chrysostom (c.347-407) was the most important Father of the Orthodox Church. Archbishop of Constantinople from 398 to 404, he was officially recog- nized as a Doctor of the Orthodox Church by the Council of Chalcedon in 4511 due to his vast and important theological writings.2 He was the most produc- tive among the Church Fathers, with over 1,500 works written by, or ascribed to him. His name was firmly associated with the Liturgy, but above all he was appreciated for his numerous sermons and as an extraordinary preacher. From the 6th century on he was called Chrysostomos, the “golden mouthed”. The fact that over 7,000 manuscripts including his writings exist, attests to the impor- tance and great distribution of his works, many of which were translated into other languages. The great majority of them date after the Iconoclasm. The homilies of John Chrysostom were read during the Service of the Matins (Orthros) mainly in Byzantine monasteries. They were transmitted in various collections or series from which only a few were selected for illustration. Illustrated homilies of John Chrysostom The exact number of illustrated manuscripts containing Chrysostomic ser- mons is unknown,3 but their number is extremely low in view of the very rich 1 The translation of his relics to Constantinople and their deposition in the Church of the Holy Apostles marks the beginning of his cult in Byzantium. The Orthodox Church commemorates him on 27 January, 13 November and also on 30 January together with the other two Cappadocian Fathers, Basil the Great and Gregory of Nazianzus.

Dissertations (2009 -). Paper 277. http://epublications.marquette.edu/dissertations_mu/277 CIRCUMCISION OF THE SPIRIT IN THE SOTERIOLOGY OF CYRIL OF ALEXANDRIA by Jonathan S. Morgan, B.S., M.A. A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2013 ABSTRACT CIRCUMCISION OF THE SPIRIT IN THE SOTERIOLOGY OF CYRIL OF ALEXANDRIA Jonathan S. Morgan, B.S., M.A. Marquette University, 2013 In this dissertation I argue that Cyril of Alexandria’s interpretation of “spiritual circumcision” provides invaluable insight into his complex doctrine of salvation. Spiritual Circumcision – or Circumcision by the Spirit -- is a recurring theme throughout his extensive body of exegetical literature, which was written before the Nestorian controversy (428). When Cyril considers the meaning and scope of circumcision, he recognizes it as a type that can describe a range of salvific effects. For him, circumcision functions as a unifying concept that ties together various aspects of salvation such as purification, sanctification, participation, and freedom. Soteriology, however, can only be understood in relation to other doctrines. Thus, Cyril’s discussions of circumcision often include correlative areas of theology such as hamartiology and Trinitarian thought. In this way, Cyril’s discussions on circumcision convey what we are saved from, as well as the Trinitarian agency of our salvation.
