CONTIGO. Nº 12Inglés Maquetación 1 CONTIGO Nº 12. May 2015 “Look to the past with gratitude, live the present with passion and embrace the future with hope” (Pope Francis, message of the Year of Consecrated Life) The Sisters Hospitallers and the Brothers of St John of God have brought the centenary of the “passing into life” of St Benedict Menni to a close Closing Eucharist of the Centenary of the death of St Benedict Menni From 22 to 24 April, around 350 people from everywhere in the world where there is a Hospitaller presence gathered together in Ciempozuelos (Spain), the place where the restoration of the order was consolidated and our institution was founded. Sisters, brothers, users, collaborators and residents of the town jointly ce- lebrated the closing of the centenary of the death of St Benedict Menni. 1 CONTIGO Wednesday, 22 April The welcome ceremony for the pilgrims was held on 22 April in the function room of our mother house, where the Mayoress of Ciempo- zuelos, María Ángeles Herrera, together with the Provincial Superiors, María Rosario Iranzo, a Sister Hospitaller, and José Antonio Soria, a Bro- ther of St John of God, welcomed all the atten- dees. In her speech, María Ángeles Herrera highligh- ted how proud everyone in Ciempozuelos is of St Benedict Menni for his dedication to the mu- Provincial Superiors with the Mayoress of Ciempozuelos nicipality and for his legacy.

  • Papal Annual Medals, 1605–1700
    religions Article Pressing Metal, Pressing Politics: Papal Annual Medals, 1605–1700 Matthew Knox Averett Department of Fine and Performing Arts, Creighton University, 2500 California Plaza, Omaha, NE 68178, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-402-280-1455; Fax: +1-402-280-2320 Academic Editor: Ted G. Jelen Received: 18 February 2016; Accepted: 11 May 2016; Published: 20 May 2016 Abstract: This article surveys images depicted on the reverses of papal annual medals in the seventeenth century, beginning in 1605 under Paul V (r. 1605–21) with the first confirmed annual medal, and ending in 1700 at the conclusion of the papacy of Innocent XII (r. 1691–1700), a reign that marked a distinct change in papal politics in advance of the eighteenth century. The article mines a wealth of numismatics images and places it within a narrative of seventeenth-century papal politics. In the ninety-six years under consideration, ten popes issued ninety-four annual medals (sede vacante produced generic annual medals in 1667 and 1691). Annual medals are a unique iteration of papal commemorative medals and they celebrate an important papal achievement from the preceding year. The production of annual medals was an exercise in identity creation, undertaken to advance the image of the pope as an aristocratic prince in three specific roles: as builder, warrior, and impresario. The timeliness of the medals makes them valuable sources to gauge the perceived success of the papacy on an annual basis and to chart the political course plotted by popes through the seventeenth century. Keywords: Rome; papacy; annual medals; numismatics 1.

  • My Dear Brothers and Co-Workers
    TO THE WHOLE ORDER. Bogota, October 10th. 2007 Prot No PG100/2007 My dear Brothers and Co-workers, 1 Preamble. It is just a year since we celebrated the 66th General Chapter of the Order with the title or theme of “Passion for the Hospitality of Saint John of God in the world of today.” I wanted to share with you a short reflection on what life has been like for us at the level of the General Government over that period of time, some of the things that have occurred and events that we have been involved in other than the Provincial Chapters, although obviously the Chapters took up most of our time over a seven month period. I want also to take this opportunity to give a brief overview of the Order, as I see it, having had the opportunity to preside at all of the Provincial Chapters. 1.1 God of Surprises. But first of all I would like to state something related to our election to the General Government of the Order and related matters. I recall a book that I read some years ago entitled, God of Surprises in which the author describes his own conversion from a harsh to a true image of God, one of God who is gentle and compassionate. I can safely say that God certainly surprised all of us when we were elected to serve on the General 1 Government of the Order towards the end of the General Chapter of October 2006! In my own case, while very much aware of my unworthiness and many limitations, I see my election as Prior General, as a privilege beyond words to express, which fills me with awe, wonder and I have to say at times apprehension when I think of what is expected of me and the office which I hold.

    The Holy See JOHN PAUL II ANGELUS Sunday 21 November 1999 Dear Brothers and Sisters, 1. The Solemnity of Christ the King of the Universe, which ends the liturgical year, has been gladdened this morning by the canonization of 12 new saints: 10 religious, one born in Argentina, who were martyred in Spain in the 1930s; St Benedict Menni, a priest of the Hospitallers of St John of God, of Italian origin but who also worked in Spain where he founded the Hospitaller Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus; and St Thomas of Cori, a priest of the Order of Friars Minor. As I cordially greet the pilgrims who have come for this joyful event, I invite everyone to praise the Lord for the great work he has accomplished in these Gospel witnesses. I urge them in particular to contemplate the fervent devotion they had to the Mother of the Redeemer, on the day when we recall her presentation in the temple. 2. The presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the most beloved feasts of the Eastern tradition, which has also been celebrated in the West since the 14th century. Mary appears to us today as the temple in which God has placed his salvation and as the handmaid who was totally consecrated to the Lord. Each year on this day the Ecclesial Community throughout the world remembers cloistered nuns, who have embraced a totally contemplative life and live on what Providence provides for them through the generosity of the faithful. As I remind everyone of their duty not to let these consecrated sisters want for spiritual and material support, I extend my warm greeting and thanks to them.

    The Holy See ADDRESS OF THE HOLY FATHER TO THE PILGRIMS FOR THE RECENT CANONIZATIONS Monday, 22 November 1999 Venerable Brothers in the Episcopate and the Priesthood, Dear Religious, Brothers and Sisters, 1. Today we meet again to renew our hymn of praise and thanksgiving to God the day after yesterday's solemn liturgy in the Vatican Basilica during which I had the joy of canonizing 12 new saints, steadfast witnesses to Christ, the King of the Universe. At the same time, let us reflect once again on their shining example of unconditional love for God and of generous devotion to the spiritual and material good of their brethren. 2. With great affection I greet the Spanish-speaking pilgrims who have come to Rome. On this occasion I extend a special greeting to the Brothers of the Christian Schools, accompanied by their students and alumni, the Passionist Fathers, as well as the members of the great Hospitaller family. These saints, beloved sons of the Church and faithful witnesses to the risen Lord, offer us the testimony of their rich spirituality, forged in daily faithfulness and unconditional self-giving to their vocation of service to neighbour. 3. The martyred Brothers of the Christian Schools canonized yesterday, followers of the charism of St John Baptist de La Salle, were totally dedicated to the complete education of children and young people. They belong to a long series of Christian educators who devoted their lives and energies to teaching in Catholic schools, committed to this indispensable service that the Church offers society. In our day the latter is sometimes individualistic and is tempted to secularism.

    The Holy See CANONIZATION OF TEN MARTYRS AND TWO PRIESTS CIRILO BERTRÁN AND EIGHT COMPANIONS, INOCENCIO DE LA INMACULADA, BENEDICT MENNI AND THOMAS OF CORI HOMILY OF THE HOLY FATHER JOHN PAUL II Sunday 21 November 1999 1. "He will sit on his glorious throne" (Mt 25: 31). Today's liturgical solemnity is dominated by Christ the King of the universe, Pantocrator, as we see him shining resplendently in the apse of ancient Christian basilicas. We contemplate this majestic image today, the last Sunday of the liturgical year. The kingship of Jesus Christ, according to the world's criteria, is paradoxical: it is the triumph of love, accomplished in the mystery of the Incarnation, Passion, Death and Resurrection of the Son of God. This saving kingship is fully revealed in the sacrifice of the Cross, the supreme act of mercy in which the salvation and judgement of the world are simultaneously brought about. Every Christian shares in Christ's kingship. In Baptism he receives by grace the inner drive to make his life a free and generous gift to God and his brethren. This appears most eloquently in the witness of the saints, who are models of humanity renewed by divine love. Today we joyfully enrol among them Cirilo Bertrán and his eight companions, Inocencio de la Inmaculada, Benedict Menni and Thomas of Cori. 2. "Christ must reign", we heard St Paul say in the second reading. The reign of Christ is already being established on earth through service of neighbour, by fighting against evil, suffering and human misery until death is defeated.
