  • HOLY TRINITY CATHOLIC CHURCH CHIPPING NORTON 1836 - 20O8 to the Reader
    HOLY TRINITY CATHOLIC CHURCH CHIPPING NORTON 1836 - 20O8 To The Reader. To-day, as we worship at Holy Trinity, we probably give few thoughts as to how there came to be a church here in the first place nor that, little more than one hundred and seventy years ago, life was not very easy as a practising Roman Catholic. Much of what we have today is due to three major physical influences down the years, the Earls of Shrewsbury (the Talbot family), the Jesuit Fathers and all those Religious who have served the Parish down the years. They all deserve our thanks and prayers. This rather leaves out the parishioners, but whether we like it or not, in real terms our role is a minor one even if for some it involves a lot of “minor work”. It might be better if more of us took more part in Parish affairs and spread the work load a bit but nevertheless, we should not overlook the role the Faith of parishioners has played in our small church, in the past and will continue to play into the future. This history is intended as a reminder of both the past and present parish and is concerned with three things – the physical structure of the church buildings, the Religious who have served the par- ish down the years and the parishioners for whom the Church and they exist. The origins of this and a Short History published earlier would not have come about without the suggestion of Father Frank Hull in 2006 and the major sources are acknowledged later.

  • Congregation of Holy Cross Celebrates Canonization of Saint André Bessette, C.S.C
    Congregation of Holy Cross Celebrates Canonization of Saint André Bessette, C.S.C. October 18, 2010 For Immediate Release Contact: Tom Grady, Publisher Ave Maria Press Notre Dame, Indiana, USA 800.282.1865 x212 [email protected] www.brotherandre.org VATICAN CITY, ITALY — Tens of thousands of pilgrims from around the world gathered in Saint Peter’s Square on Sunday morning, October 17, to celebrate the canonization of six new saints of the Catholic Church. Among them was Brother André Bessette, C.S.C., the first saint from the Congregation of Holy Cross, who was formally canonized by Pope Benedict XVI in an outdoor ceremony. Saint André worked as a humble porter at a school in Montréal and founded the Oratory of Saint Joseph there. He came to be known as “the miracle man of Montréal” for his outreach and compassion for the sick. The spirit of his work with the poor and sick carries over into the lives of Holy Cross religious and those to whom they minister around the world. Pope John Paul II beatified Brother André in 1982. Alfred Bessette (who became Brother André) was born August 9, 1845, in Saint- Grégoire d’Iberville near Montreal, Canada. One of ten children, he was unable to attend school regularly because of poor health. Orphaned by age 12, the largely illiterate Bessette spent 13 years wandering and working in various places, including textile mills in the United States. When he entered Holy Cross as a brother in 1870, he was assigned to be a porter (doorman) at a Montréal school, where he developed a reputation for compassion and healing.

  • Of a Patrician Family, Which Produced Many Illustrious Men‖
    ADDRESSEE FATHER DOMENICO MARIA FEDERICI Father Domenico Maria Federici was born in Verona in 17391 ‖of a patrician family, which produced many illustrious men‖. ― He entered the Dominican Order when still very young and devoted his time to the study of literature and the sciences in the cities of Bologna, Genova and Padua. He was raised to the degree of professor in his Order and therefore the convents of Udine, Padua and Treviso profitted by his teaching…He consulted codices and turned libraries upside down in order to collect data regarding the history of the Middle Ages.‖ (Cf. Biografi Tal. Sc.). He became Provincial of the Order of Preachers in Treviso. Since he had lived the greatest part of his life in that city, he chose it as his country of adoption. To illustrate the religious, civil and artistic history, he even consulted Magdalene of Canossa who at that time was living her first religious experience among the Discalced of Verona. Federici died in Treviso in 1808 and was remembered by his nephew, Abbot Luigi Federici in a book printed in Verona in 1819, ―Gli elogi storici dei più illustri ecclesiastici veronesi‖. 1 The date of his birth differs from what some scholars wrote. The exact date was arrived at through research done in the Library of the Commune of Treviso, where the following works were consulted: a) Bibliografia, ed. Venezia, Tip. Alvisopoli, 1841, Vol. VIII, pg. 476; b) Bibliografie Universelle ancienne et moderne (supp FAU-Fu); c) A. Serena, Un Poligrafo of the sec. XVIII ed i suoi corrispondenti.
