Discalced Carmelite Proper Offices of Carmelite Saints and Blesseds in the Liturgy of the Hours DISCALCED CARMELITE PROPER OFFICES OF CARMELITE SAINTS AND BLESSEDS IN THE LITURGY OF THE HOURS 2007 Second edition January 3 BLESSED KURIAKOS ELIAS CHAVARA Priest Blessed Kuriakos Elias Chavara, co-founder and first prior general of the congregation of the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate, was born at Kainakary in Kerala, India, February 10, 1805. He entered the seminary in 1818, and was ordained priest in 1829. He made his religious profession in 1855, in the congregation he founded. In 1861 he was named vicar general for the Syro- Malabar church; in this capacity he defended ecclesial unity threatened by schism when Mar Tomas Rochos was sent from Mesopotamia to consecrate Nestorian bishops. Throughout his life he worked for the renovation of the church in Malabar. He was also co-founder in 1866 of the congregation of the Sisters of the Mother of Carmel. Above all, he was a man of prayer, zealous for the Eucharistic Lord and devoted to the Immaculate Virgin Mary. He died at Koonammavu in 1871. His body was transferred to Mannanam in 1889. From the common of pastors or of holy men (religious) Office of Readings SECOND READING From a note written on the day of his death, by his spiritual director, Fr. Leopold Beccaro. Day and night he fought to arrest the spread of schism. Today, Tuesday, January, 3, 1871, at 7:15 in the morning, Fr. Cyriac (Kuriakos) Elias of the Holy Family, the first Prior, died after a life of great innocence... He could declare before his 4 — JANUARY 3 — BL KURIAKOS ELIAS CHAVARA death he had never lost his baptismal innocence. He was exercising himself in the practice of virtues, especially in simplicity of heart, living faith, tender obedience, and devotion to the Most Blessed Sacrament, to the Blessed Virgin Mary and to St. Joseph. He has undergone immense hardships for the good of the Christians of Malabar, especially during the time of the schism of Rochos, when he, having been appointed vicar general of the Syrians, showed his extraordinary devotion to the Holy See. He fought day and night to arrest the spread of schism from which he would save no less than forty parishes. On this account the Holy Father Pope Pius IX sent him a letter expressing his great satisfaction. He was the founder and the first Prior of the Carmelites of Malabar. He founded also the convent of nuns after undergoing many hardships. On account of his endearing virtues, learning and profound knowledge of the Syriac language he enjoyed great influence on the Syrians of Malabar. He was always greatly loved by the Vicars Apostolic of Malabar, and even more by the people of Malabar, the gentiles and Nestorians not excluded. He endured his last illness for two years in a spirit of great resignation, nay with joy. He was detached from all disorderly affections for earthly things, which was all the more true in the last days of his life. Having received the last sacraments with extraordinary piety and devotion, in a heavenly joy, and amidst the tears of all who knew him, especially my own, who knew him even as myself, he breathed his last at the age of sixty-five and was buried in the church of St. Philomena at Koonammavu. O holy and beautiful soul, pray for me. RESPONSORY You adorned my soul with all graces —so that the angels too may find joy in that. You took care, besides, that my name might be inscribed in the book of life —so that the angels too may find joy in that. JANUARY 8 — SAINT PETER THOMAS — 5 PRAYER Lord God, You raised up Blessed Kuriakos Elias your priest to strengthen the unity of the Church. Grant that through his intercession we may be enlightened by the Holy Spirit to read the signs of the times with wisdom and spread the news of the Gospel by both word and example. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. January 8 SAINT PETER THOMAS Bishop Born about 1305 in southern Perigord, in France, Peter Thomas entered the Carmelites when he was twenty-one. He was chosen by the Order as its procurator general to the Papal Court at Avignon in 1345. After being made bishop of Patti and Lipari in 1354, he was entrusted with many papal missions to promote peace and unity with the Eastern Churches. He was translated to the see of Corone in the Peloponnesus in 1359 and made Papal Legate for the East. In 1363 he was appointed Archbishop of Crete and in 1364 Latin Patriarch of Constantinople. He won a reputation as an apostle of church unity before he died at Famagosta on Cyprus in 1366. From the common of pastors Office of Readings HYMN Peter, from your height of glory, Look on all, our brethren dear. Listen in your kind compassion As we sound your praises here. 6 — JANUARY 8 — SAINT PETER THOMAS Faithful to the rule of Carmel You made progress day by day; Called from thence to higher office Love still lighted all your way. Mary, Virgin ever-blessed, Guided you with mother’s care; You repaid her sweet affection With your constant loving prayer. Deeply you have pondered scripture, Ever following truth’s call, Thence have drawn with zeal unwearied Food of doctrine for us all. Since we have your good example Shining as a lamp to guide, Pray for us that we may follow, Putting selfish aims aside. May we praise you, heavenly Father, Praise your Son and Spirit blest, When together with Saint Peter At your throne we come to rest. 87.87. Sr. Margarita of Jesus, O.C.D. SECOND READING From the Book of the Institution of the First Monks (L. 1, c. 6: ed. AnOC 3 [1914-1916], pp. 356-57). Love your neighbor as yourself Whoever knows my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me. The foremost commandment is: Hear, O Israel: the Lord your God is one God, and you will love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all JANUARY 8 — SAINT PETER THOMAS — 7 your mind. This is the first and the greatest of the commandments. But you cannot observe it unless you love your neighbor, for whoever does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen; and so the second commandment is like the first: You will love your neighbor as yourself—that is, in the same way as you must love yourself and for the same reason. Now what you must desire for yourself are those things which are truly good, not evil. If you wish yourself evil you are hating, not loving yourself, for whoever loves wickedness hates his own soul. This is the way, then, in which you must love your neighbor as yourself, wishing him good, not evil, for whatever you want others to do to you, you must do the same to them, and you should never do to another anything you would hate to have done to yourself by another. Love never wrongs a neighbor. What you are to love in your neighbor, then, and do to him, are the things that will make him good if he is bad, or encourage him to persevere in virtue if he is good. Now it is for God’s sake, of course, not your own, that you must love yourself, for you turn the thing you love for its own sake into the ultimate object of your happiness and the crowning blessing of your whole life. All your present joy will consist in looking forward to its enjoyment. How unworthy it would be, then, for you to place your hopes for a life of blessedness in yourself, or in any other human creature! Woe to the one who puts his trust in man and relies on an arm of flesh, the one whose heart turns away from the Lord! It is the Lord you should take as the ultimate object of your happiness, it is to him you must look for a life of blessedness, for the apostle says: Now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is sanctification, and its end, eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. See things as they truly are, then, and you will find yourself obliged to love God for his own sake, and yourself not for your own sake but for God’s. And since you must love your 8 — JANUARY 8 — SAINT PETER THOMAS neighbor as yourself, you will not love him either for his own sake or for yours, but for God’s, or rather you will love God in your neighbor, By this we know that we love God’s children, says the apostle John, when we love God and obey his commandments. If you love God for his own sake, and your neighbor as yourself for God’s sake, then you are doing all that is necessary to prepare your soul, for on these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets. RESPONSORY 1 Thessalonians 2:8; Galatians 4:19 I have longed to give you the Gospel, and more than that, to give you my very life; —you have become very dear to me. My little children, I am like a mother giving birth to you, until Christ is formed in you. —you have become very dear to me.

  • Praying the Liturgy of the Hours
    Praying the Liturgy of the Hours The Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office or the Work of God (Opus Dei), is a beautiful and ancient tradition in the Church marking the hours of each day and sanctifying the day with prayer. It is not reserved for clerics and religious (although they take vows to say it), but can also be prayed by the lay faithful. In fact, the Second Vatican Council highly encouraged the laity to “recite the divine office [especially Morning and Evening Prayer-the Major hours], either with the priests, or among themselves, or even individually” (Sacrosanctum Concilium, 100). The Hours are a meditative dialogue on the mystery of Christ, using scripture and prayer. The foundation of the prayer is simple – praying the Psalms – but in practicality can be difficult. If one chooses to purchase a physical breviary (the book that contains the Liturgy of the Hours, it can be challenging – especially if no one is there to show you what to do. However, after an initial introduction to praying the Liturgy of the Hours, it becomes much easier and soon it will be like clockwork. There are two main forms of the breviary. You can purchase a four-volume set entitled The Liturgy of the Hours from the Catholic Book Publishing. You can usually purchase for as low as $155. However, you can also purchase one volume at a time: This four-volume set contains prayers for all the hours of the day: Office of Readings (Major Hour); Lauds or Morning Prayer (Major Hour); Daytime Prayer (minor hour(s)-one or more of Terce (Midmorning), Sext (Midday), or None (Midafternoon); Vespers (Major Hour); and Compline or Night Prayer.

  • Ex-British Prime Minister Received Into Catholic Church
    Ex-British Prime Minister received into Catholic Church LONDON – Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair became a Catholic during a private ceremony in London. Mr. Blair, previously an Anglican, was received into full communion with the Catholic Church by Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor of Westminster. Mr. Blair was sponsored at the Mass of reception by his wife, Cherie, a Catholic. The Dec. 21 Mass at Archbishop’s House, the cardinal’s private residence, was attended by Mr. Blair’s family and close friends. Cardinal Murphy-O’Connor said in a statement Dec. 22 that he was “very glad” to welcome Mr. Blair into church. “For a long time he has been a regular worshipper at Mass with his family and in recent months he has been following a program of formation to prepare for his reception into full communion,” the cardinal said. “My prayers are with him, his wife and family at this joyful moment in their journey of faith together.” Mr. Blair, 54, served as British prime minister from May 1997 until June 2007. He now serves as envoy to the Middle East for the Quartet, a group comprised of the United Nations, the European Union, the United States and Russia. He was admitted into the church using the liturgical rite of reception of a baptized Christian, which involved him making a profession of faith during the course of the Mass. He was given doctrinal and spiritual preparation by Monsignor Mark O’ Toole, the cardinal’s private secretary, and also made a full confession before his reception. For most of his adult life, Mr.

  • Relative Hopes People Will Remember Blessed Preca's Life, Virtues
    Relative hopes people will remember Blessed Preca’s life, virtues OTTAWA – Tony Vella, the great-nephew of Father George Preca, said he hopes the charismatic Maltese priest’s life and virtues will be remembered long after his June 3 canonization. Vella called his mother’s uncle, whom he knows as “Dun Gorg,” a “pioneer of the lay apostolate.” Vella, 64, of Kingston, Ontario, served Blessed Preca as an altar boy in his native town of Hamrun, Malta, and “used to see him pretty well every day,” Vella said in a May telephone interview from Kingston. When Blessed Preca began his ministry, Malta, an island nation off the coast of Italy, was largely illiterate. Although Malta is Catholic, the faith there was mingled with superstition. As a deacon, Blessed Preca started “religious discussions” with sailors in the Grand Harbor area and began building relationships with local youths. Shortly after his 1906 ordination, Blessed Preca had what Vella described as a “very charismatic experience” that led him to spend three months alone, praying and meditating in a loft and pondering the Bible, especially the New Testament. A year later, he founded the Society of Christian Doctrine, setting up catechism centers that at first met with a “mixed response” from church authorities. After 20 years of struggle, Blessed Preca’s efforts to form faithful Christians met with the approval of the local archbishop. Vella said Blessed Preca resisted the idea that he had founded the society, preferring to say St. Paul inspired him when he told St. Timothy to hand on to reliable people what St.
