lessed Vincenzo Grossi B U U 1845-1917 Blessed Vincenzo Grossi was 1 born in 1845 at Pizzighettone. He entered the seminary at a very young age and was ordained a priest in 1869. In 1873 he moved to Regona as a parish under the appearance of a young boy, met priest, and then in 1883 to Vicobellignano. A them and led them along the road that ran witness describes him thus: “He was for all an to the village, saying to them: “Don’t take illustrious example of poverty, of the spirit of shelter in the woods after dark. It is not wise. self-denial, of a simple life, of a total, humble The main road is safer.”S Then he vanished obedience to the Holy Father and his from before their eyes. Bishop. Thus with gentleness, united to a habitual good humor and joviality – to which he warmly encouraged his Sisters – he easily won the faith of many to win them for Jesus Christ.” In 1885 he established the Institute of the Daughters of the Oratory, giving them a rule according to the spirit of Saint Philip Neri with special attention to the Christian education of the young. He was often helped in this endeavor by the Angels. One day he had set out with his friend, Don Corbari, to visit one of these Oratories. He was late, and night had already fallen. The two priests, not being familiar with the road, took shelter in a small forest. Don Vincenzo said to his friend: “Providence will not abandon us, but will send us some Guardian Angel. Let us not be discouraged.” Don Corbari listened with confidence to the words of the founder, and began to say the Rosary.

Santa Messa E Canonizzazione Dei Beati
CAPPELLA PAPALE XXIX DOMENICA DEL TEMPO ORDINARIO SANTA MESSA CELEBRATA DAL SANTO PADRE FRANCESCO CON IL RITO DELLA CANONIZZAZIONE PIAZZA SAN PIETRO, 18 OTTOBRE 2015 BEATI VINCENZO GROSSI Sacerdote diocesano Fondatore dell’Istituto delle Figlie dell’Oratorio MARIA DELL’IMMACOLATA CONCEZIONE Religiosa Superiora generale della Congregazione delle Sorelle della Compagnia della Croce LUDOVICO MARTIN Fedele laico e padre di famiglia e MARIA AZELIA GUÉRIN Fedele laica e madre di famiglia Coniugi I Profilo biografico dei beati VINCENZO GROSSI (1845-1917) Vincenzo Grossi nacque a Pizzighettone (CR) il 9 marzo 1845, penultimo figlio di genitori ricchi di fede e di valori umani. Dopo avere ricevuto per la prima volta Gesù Eucaristia, il giovane Vin- cenzo manifestò l’intenzione di entrare in seminario, attratto dalla vocazione sacerdotale. Per necessità familiari fu costretto a riman- dare il progetto e ad offrire la propria opera nel mulino paterno, unendo questa fatica all’impegno dello studio. Tutto compì con risolutezza, letizia, attendendo “l’ora di Dio”. Il 4 novembre 1864 entrò in Seminario e il 22 maggio 1869 fu ordinato sacerdote. Dopo alcune prime esperienze pastorali, fu nominato parroco di Regona (una frazione di Pizzighettone) e quindi di Vicobellignano (CR), dove rimase per trentaquattro anni. Di fronte alla situazione di ignoranza e di povertà tipica dei borghi lombardi di fine Otto- cento, operò a favore dei più giovani, che accolse in casa, istruì e formò per renderli consapevoli della loro dignità di figli di Dio. Scelse una vita povera e la condivisione con i più bisognosi. L’u- nione con Cristo Sacerdote e Vittima segnò la sua missione e la spiritualità, rendendolo uomo di intenso apostolato e di profonda preghiera.

Saint Vincenzo Grossi
Saint Vincenzo Grossi SAINT OF THE DAY 07-11-2020 This priest became a saint by carrying out his ministry in faithfulness to God, whom he served in his daily life. He spent hours in the confessional, educating consciences in the Christian virtues and nourished himself with prayer, penance and contemplation of the Blessed Sacrament. Parish priest for 44 years, the life of St Vincenzo Grossi (1845-1917) is extraordinary for its ordinariness and demonstrates once again that the ways of holiness, in single minded obedience to God, are many. In this sense, in beatifying him, Paul VI indicated him as “a serene and persuasive example for priests directly involved in the care of souls” because in him they can find “a new model of sanctification and zeal”. The penultimate of ten children, he was born into a family of millers. Already after his First Communion he expressed to his parents his desire to become a priest, following the example of his brother Giuseppe. Until the age of 19 he stayed with his parents to help them with their work. In 1873, four years after his priestly ordination, he had his first job as parish priest in a hamlet of his native town, Pizzighettone (province of Cremona), where a “wretched predecessor” had worked, according to the definition given by the bishop. With patience and sacrifice, the saint succeeded in bringing many souls closer to God, transforming the village into a “little convent”, as some confreres called it. He was very attentive to the education of the youth, also because he was aware of the social and moral fragility in which many of them were growing up.

La-Mia-Fede-Nei-Santi-Di-Ogni-Giorno
1 MARTINO CARBOTTI LA MIA FEDE nei Santi di ogni giorno Pugliesi Editore 2 Introduzione Non è assolutamente semplice per me, figlio, delineare la figura di mio padre: Ninuccio Carbotti. Non vi nascondo di averci pensato per molto tempo, dubbioso, circa i tanti aspetti su cui avrei dovuto soffermarmi e una delle domande che mi sono subito posto è stata: ma oltre alla figura di padre modello che io conoscevo, cos'altro conosco della vita di mio padre? E qui ho avuto delle perplessità ..... sì dico perplessità perché tutti i padri presumo hanno un determinato comportamento con i figli, dettato dal ruolo, c'è chi lo fà con più severità e chi meno, chi è pedante e chi meno, chi è accondiscendente e chi meno e via dicendo ma sicuramente tutti si apprestano a svolgere questo compito basilare con uno sconfinato e immenso amore !!! Ma un padre oltre a questo è anche un “uomo”ed è proprio il profilo umano, di uomo tra gli uomini, che mi ha portato ad iniziare questo lavoro, oserei dire di ricerca, esegetico, di tutti gli scritti e archiviazioni varie che con pazienza e passione certosina egli aveva iniziato ed implementato nei vari anni della sua vita. Ho avuto la fortuna di crescere in una famiglia molto unita, sotto tutti gli aspetti. Mio padre apparteneva a quelle belle famiglie di una volta, numerose: erano otto figli, madre, padre e “zizì” a carico (una zia di mia padre, sorella minore di mia nonna, la quale viveva sotto lo stesso tetto a causa di lievi problemi invalidanti) e come tradizione comanda, tutti i figli maschi e dico tutti nessuno escluso, hanno ereditato dal padre l'arte della lavorazione del legno.

Blessed Benedict Daswa (1946-1990) South Africa, Feast Day: TBD A South African convert and martyr, Benedict was born into the Lemba tribe and converted to the Faith in 1963. He served as a teacher and catechist, helped build the first church in the area and was later named principal of the local Catholic school.

Pray for those who convert to the Catholic Faith Blessed Óscar Romero (1917-1980) Latin America, Feast Day: TBD Archbishop of San Salvador from 1977 until his murder, Romero was a prominent voice for human rights during the bloody period of political strife in El Salvador.

Pray for modern day martyrs Blessed Pope Paul VI (r. 1963-1978) Italy, Feast Day: TBD Paul brought the Second Vatican Council to a conclusion and then devoted his remaining years to guiding the Church in the difficult years that followed. His writings, especially Humanae Vitae that defended the Church’s teachings on contraception, and Populorum Progressio on Catholic Social Teaching, proved powerfully prophetic in anticipating problems of a contraceptive culture, globalization and ideological colonization.
