It motivates and impels us. It is a memory that we must call to mind every day and be renewed, lest it disap- pears and is completely forgotten. It is a memory that calls us to action demanding a new and fresh pursuit. The 47th General Chapter chose to reflect on the theme: Renewing our Mission – Gratitude, Prophe- cy, Hope in light of the provocative and dynamic force of the Memoria Passionis. The Chapter’s goal was to promote reflection and response to the call of renewal of our mission throughout the Congregation and the Passionist Family with the awareness that ‘what we do’ is closely linked to ‘who we are’.

    My journey continues... Written by: Gail Nampel You may remember during the fall of 2014, I shared that I was excited to be on a stewardship journey and invited anyone that felt called, to join me. Recently, my journey took me to Italy and I’m thrilled and honored to share the experience with you. This past December, while doing some work on my computer, I received an email from Mountain Bu- torac ‘The Catholic Traveler’ announcing that he was offering “A Low Season” pilgrimage to Rome and Assisi. A one-week, all-inclusive pilgrimage that included daily Mass at destinations like The Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi, St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, The Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine, The Pontifical North American College. Plus, we’d step through six sets of Holy Doors, tour the Basilicas of St. Clare, St Mary Major, St. Paul Outside the Walls, St. John Lateran, the Vatican Museum, attend the Pope’s General Audience on Ash Wednesday, take the Scavi Tour, climb The Holy Stairs at the Chapel Volume of2, IssueSan Lorenzo3 and much, much, more! – This trip was being offered to the first sixteen people that replied…for a price that was FAR less than one might expect! What was there to think about? I’ve been wanting to do this for so long and finally had the opportunity! I immediately replied with a HUGE affirmative! I’m in! I’m going! My fellow pilgrims and I landed at the airport in Rome on Sunday, February 7th at 10:30 AM, boarded a bus and headed to the incredibly picturesque city of Assisi, situated in the slopes of Mount Subasio.

It explores the complex manner in which these central Italian cities both emulated and rejected the political and cultural hegemony of Rome through the ideological and performative reinvention of its cult icons. In the twelfth century the powerful urban center of Tivoli adopted Rome’s grandest annual public event, the nocturnal Assumption procession of August 14-15, and transformed it into a potent civic expression that incorporated all sectors of the social fabric. Tivoli’s cult of the Trittico del Salvatore and the Inchinata procession in which the icon of the enthroned Christ was carried at the feast of the Assumption and made to perform in symbolic liturgical ceremonies were both modeled on Roman, papal exemplars.

  • In the Footsteps of Blessed Pope John XXIII: a Pilgrimage of Renewal & Hope
    In The Footsteps of Blessed Pope John XXIII: A Pilgrimage of Renewal & Hope 10 days / 8 nights The Second Vatican Council, 1962-65, has been called the “greatest religious event of the Twentieth Century” (Blessed Pope John Paul II). Yet few Catholics have read the Council’s documents or understand its vision balancing renewal (aggiornamento) with Living Tradition. For most Catholics, Vatican II remains “The Greatest Story NEVER Told!” Stand in the light of this great Council by walking in the footsteps of its visionary and Spirit-filled architect, Blessed Pope John XXIII. From his humble beginnings on the northern Lombard plains of Italy to his unprecedented ecumenical Council, walk with Blessed John XXIII and consider how the renewal of Faith in your life and in our parish should continue today! Day 1: Departure from the USA The best preparation for the new millennium can only be expressed in a renewed commitment to apply as faithfully as possible, the teachings of Vatican II to the life of every individual and of the whole Church. (Tertio Millenio Adveniente) Our pilgrimage begins with an overnight flight to Milan, Italy. Day 2: Arrival to Milan What a wonder it is! So grand, so solemn, so vast! And yet so delicate, so airy, so graceful! (Mark Twain describing the Milan Duomo from Innocents Abroad). We begin this morning with a guided tour of Milan, Italy's business hub and a great draw to many throughout history, from St. Ambrose and Leonardo da Vinci, to the waves of immigrants who fueled its growth in the second half of the 20th century.
